Overall not an authentic taste. From starter to main entry and bread, everything was super mild. I’m not referring to spice level but it was a salt mild.

Absolutely love this place!! The food is very consistent and full of flavor. When I order takeout it is always made on time and hot when I arrive. This has become a new regular place for me and my family.

This was my first time visiting this exceptional Indian restaurant, and I must say, it exceeded expectations. As someone of Indian background with a discerning palate, I’ve experienced many restaurants that fail to deliver authentic flavor—this was not one of them. The food was rich, vibrant, and truly satisfying. The interior design is tasteful and inviting, and the service was courteous and efficient. Highly recommended for anyone seeking high-quality Indian cuisine.

Food was served fast and was delicious. Generous portions but a little pricey, could be due to the portions. I ordered chicken biriani and there was enough for two people had to take it home.

Mango Lassi was good as well. Restroom is not in the restaurant and is outside 20 feet from the establishment.

Waiting staff checked on me often and that was nice despite being the only customer in at the time, could have easily just left me alone with my food since he left the water pitcher, but he chose not to and continued to make sure I was enjoying my experience.

Really delicious food, authentic but adaptable. Large portions. Every dish we had was prepared flawlessly, presented beautifully. I wish we had been hungrier, but the left overs we took home were just as tasty.

I’m giving bad reviews to the server, he treated us really differently from the other table. I don’t understand his rude behaviors. All I asked if they serve chicken tikka masala and his answer was very rude. Also, the food isn’t good either. Plus I asked ice cream to go, it’s totally skim for 2 samples ice cream they charged me $12

Very cozy atmosphere, the food was so good that we came back twice in one day. We love Gobi, the cook, who was so kind to us. The food was so flavorful and we loved everything we ordered. My stomach can tell when a place is using less than favorable ingredients, and eating the food here felt so good, I can tell they care about the quality of the food here!!!
