We got there right before close and the food was still amazing. The place was quiet for a Saturday evening and the food hot the spot. Butter chicken w/garlic naan-Mild. Yum

Vegetarian options: Multiple GF options also

Parking: Limited parking spots in front of building and plenty of parking across college. Perfect spot for late night drinks & fresh food.

First, don’t miss the non-vegetarian kebab platter - but every dish was distinct and full of flavor!

We had the lamb dum biriyani, chicken tikka masala and chicken korma with gluten free naan.

Seemed like a win for all of us including our celiac son!

The name fits as there were plenty of salivating scents coming from the dishes at Aroma. The chicken was succulent & the garlic naan was deliciously buttery. Rajendra was my server & he was as polite as he was attentive. Also, there is a bakery next door to check out!

I give 4 stars as my samosa order wasn’t hot or crispy. Still, plenty of good here
