Hands-down, this is the best Indian food I’ve ever eaten at a restaurant. I also had a chance to try a Himalayan dish. I prefer vegetarian dishes and was excited that they had so many options, in addition to many options for chicken and lamb dishes. Everything was freshly made and brought to the table hot. I hope they stay in business because I would like to go back and try everything on the menu. The decor is nothing special, but you hardly notice while drinking a hot, savory...

So delicious! We got veggie samosas, garlic naan, chicken biryani rice, chicken tikka masala, Himalayan chicken chili! Everything was so flavorful! We got this sauce with our order, but I'm not sure what it was or what it was for, but it was so good I dipped the samosas and naan in it! Can't wait to go back!

We were traveling, just stopped for gas and quick taco bell. Saw this restaurant across the street. Decided to try it. We loved every dish we ordered. It’s family owned restaurant so service was little slow. Taste of home cooked food. Must try.
Pro tip: order it spicy for Indian taste.
