Authentic from the moment you pull up! I love this place! Food is always great and fresh, which means sometimes you need to wait for it. It’s so worth it! Everything about the atmosphere makes the whole experience unique and memorable. I highly recommend trying it if you’re even remotely interested in getting Indian food.

My daughter and I were in Lex and just googled Indian restaurants, and it was way after the dinner rush, 30 min before they closed. The food was delicious, and service was great (even though they had to be annoyed). I recommend
