The spice palette is very welcoming, great customer service, staff patient with menu questions and suggestions. Our dinner was selected from the vegetarian/vegan menu and did not disappoint. Portion size is perfect as we like options. Also great for sharing. Our selections easily fed 4. half of our dinner was taken home as it was too delicious to leave behind. We say the BEST INDIAN RESTAURANT in new London .

Perfect dining experience, from start to finish. My daughter and I had cocktails, appetizers, soup, and entrees. Each item was customized to our preferred degree of spiciness. Gluten-free options are abundant. Staff is helpful with suggestions, always attentive, and never rushed us. Comfortable dining room with music that doesn't overpower conversation. If we lived in CT we would be back all the time!

2 months ago, my girlfriend and I went to this Restaurant out of curiosity and it was amazing. We ordered the chicken tika masala, lamb berriani, lentil soup, a lamb rice dish, garlic naan and a icecream/dessert. Everything tasted amazing in the Restaraunt.

A month later we ordered delivery and it did not taste close to what we had during dine in and thought...
