I adore Indian cuisine. The majority of options are excellent. Even when they alter the flavor intensity, I still go there since the goat curry is my favorite. I miss the lunch buffet and am hoping it will reopen soon.

The depth and complexity of their flavors are outstanding here. The dishes don't disappoint. The lamb preparations are our favorites. We've tried other places nearby but nothing compares. Great food!

I had ordered goat biryani. It was lil oily and was lacking lil salt. Portion size and meat quantity were great. I found to be better than Jewels of India, Biryani City, and Spice6 overall.
