Delicious.
Edit: been hitting other spots in the area that are closer to me and many have nicer dining rooms (not that this one is bad, it's just a little more fast casual) but I haven't found one with better food. This is definitely my favorite. By a lot. Wish it were closer.

I stopped in for a change from fast food and was totally delighted. I ordered chicken biryani for a quick lunch and was delighted at how delicious it was. Cannot wait to go back and try more menu items. It was fresh and just the right amount of spice (medium is what I asked for). Can’t wait to go back and try more items based on their great reviews!!!

I came in exhausted from a long day, asked what they recommended, and ended up with the Lajjatdar and garlic naan. I sat waiting while sipping delicious chai. The first bite of my food was warm, fresh, spicy, and rich. I will be coming back here. Good people, good food, good atmosphere.
