The food is really yummy, but the interior of the restaurant could use some work. Overall, the staff is friendly and the food is very good! I’d recommend trying the chicken nihari!

Horrible food. Never again. Like we were eating just tomato sauce... Save your money and go somewhere else... We spent over 100 dollars on a meal my 8 year old would have done better on this .. little to no chicken. Horrible

First time ordering Indian in years, got the lunch chicken tikka with help from the woman behind the counter. Service was quick, helpful, and friendly. Would definitely try other items in the future. 12$ for the generous portion was awesome. Naan was buttery, samosa flavorful, and the sauce rich.
Only complaints were I wish I got more chicken, ill ask for more spice next time, and the naan was a bit too chewy when it cooled. Oh and to wrap the bag tighter, some sauce spilled in transport. The lid is not the most secure for the loose sauce of the tikka

I got the chicken Tikka Masala and my boyfriend got the chicken Vindaloo, both were really really delicious! The owner was super nice and the food was ready pretty quickly. Overall 10/10 service, will be back soon !!

Ordered food from here today. The lady was very polite and welcoming, the costs are reasonable for the portion, but here comes the real part. The food was not at all good :

We ordered chicken curry, goat curry and chicken tikka masala. The goat was very rubbery and evident that it is frozen from a long time, same with the chicken tikka pieces(can easily tell after these many years of cooking and eating curries). It was goat but tasted like lamb showing no efforts on cooking till the gamey nature is lost.Even the curry smelled like a bit stale from the fat parts in the goat.

Even worst they put 70% rice first in the curry portion of the takeaway and then covered with curry to make it look like over flowing but with nothing there. Naan is like frozen store bought, not fresh.

I would not go here again as I have better options like kebab house, and Indian aroma for just a few more dollars but it is worth it.
