If you are going to order from here , make sure you tell them you want it very mild . I ordered Tikka Masala without telling them anything and it came out tooooo spicy . Their naan is way too thick . Just FYI

The food was amazing ! I ordered some to take home. I passed this cute little “.diner” and I’m glad I did! The owner Dave was very accommodating as we visited while I was waiting for my take out order!

They allow substitution of ghee for a cooking oil instead of soybean oil, which they normally use, which I really appreciate.
Also, they food makes me feel energized instead of tired and heavy.
