Got take-out. I am super wimpy with spice, medium is usually too spicy for me (like medium salsa is usually too much). So I got mild spice with my malai kofta and matar paneer and it tastes like nothing! The basmati rice has no flavoring either. Would recommend at least medium spice for anyone! The garlic naan is good and the sauces with that are tasty.

We've never had to wait for a table. But the food and service are always good. Prices are fantastic. Nothing better than walking in on a cold night and getting hit with the amazing aromas from the kitchen. They could use some art on the walls and music to make the place a bit more cozy. Get the mixed naan / basket, any korma, butter chicken, and mixed biryani and a group of 4 will leave stuffed and with leftovers.

If I could give 2.5 stars I would. It’s probably fine for someone who’s not super familiar with Indian food/doesn’t like too much spice, but as someone half Indian, I thought things were ‘off’/bland. It’s not the worst I’ve had in the twin cities, but I won’t be back (but I admit to being an Indian food snob). Certainly, the food isn’t good enough for them to justify not having salt and pepper on the table (which I think is only appropriate when the food is amazing)....
