Just not the same. This was our first time ordering after the new ownership, and we’re so disappointed. We placed our usual order, but the flavor we loved just wasn’t there. The original Little India taste and quality seem to have left with the previous owners. So sad to say goodbye to what used to be one of our favorite spots.

We happen to stumble on this restaurant! I was amazed that they were in business for 38 years .
The food was so flavourful! Since it was lunch buffet we got to try all the dishes . Having gone to a lot of Indian restaurants this one stands out in flavour and spices .
The owner Mala is an exceptional lady .
