Was brought here with someone who recommended it. Cauliflower appetizer was good and I would try again.All main dishes were amazing. Shared Chicken Tikka Masala, Makhani (Butter) with chicken, and garlic naan. Medium spicy (between mild, medium and hot) was spicy enough for someone who like Sriracha on more things than others. Chicken was clean (no chewy, icky, gristle going on).Main dishes came out in a way that was very easy to share. There were leftovers , but one entree would be plenty for one person . Both of those main dishes tasted pretty similar - I would definitely try to vary what you order to share further than I did. Would definitely go back again.

The food is flavorful and fresh. We love the chicken Tikka and the various Naan breads. I like the saag paneer's flavor but the spinach is full puree and Iike it better with some texture. Overall service is great and attentive..atmosphere is nice.

For lovers of Indian food, Dancing Ganesha is not to be missed. The usual menu items but superbly done. These folks know how to trim meats and really know their way around sauces. Absolutely delicious. All the way across the Twin Cities for my wife and me in Little Canada but for Indian cuisine we haven't found any place as tasty.
The staff was very friendly and helpful, the decor has a nice India theme and is really tasteful for a strip mall restaurant. The food was very good and the portion. I prefer a nice cup of chai for my drink.when ordered the chilli chicken appetizer and chicken tikka masala.

I used to rave about this place, but no longer do. I generally ordered once a week, but will no longer do that after they continue to pack something other then what I ordered repeatedly. Today, I ordered delivery for chicken vindaloo and received shrimp vindaloo. I had to go back to the restaurant, as my delivery person was already gone by the time I got to check my order. There’s 6 men standing around and can’t check for accuracy in orders? When I got home from receiving the correct item, I noticed a long piece of gray hair in the chicken vindaloo. For your mistake you shouldn’t have done that!

I love Indian food but it will not come from here ever again. I was excited about this place and would like to support it, but no more. Repeatedly there are delays for takeout food. Tonight I arrived after 25 minutes to wait 25 more in the restaurant for my order. My 3 entrees sat in the bag on the counter while they waited 25 minutes for Nan. No explanation from staff. And no attempt to keep the food warm. There were 2 other takeout orders and the restaurant only half full. It looks like the kitchen doesn’t know what it’s doing. Here’s what I saw for food safety: the rice for takeout orders is all prepackaged and kept in insulated bags on a table by the kitchen. I didn’t see a rice cooker open while I was there. This is why their rice is dried out and comes out of the container like a mold. Yuck! Food safety is not a concern here!

Indian that hits the spot. My go to’s are always the chicken Korma and lamb Josh. That’s how I know it’s good because of how many times I’ve had it. Both dishes were flavorful and creamy. They refilled the rice for free and gave good portions. Mango lassi and garlic naan are always a must to go with our meal. The food is reasonably priced for the portions, good service, and clean restaurant.
Found a dark brown hair in my food....
