I highly recommend this to anyone.”

The homestyle fries are absolutely delicious and the onion rings are great. The only thing anybody in my family didnt like was the Mac n cheese which is hit and miss no matter where we go. The girls are always going around checking in and offering a refill on drinks. Always a great atmosphere. We love this place!”

“This is an interesting place, a hidden gem. It doesn’t look like anything from outside, barely even a truck stop. But the food is delicious and the shelves are lined with Punjabi grocery staples. I talked to the young man working there and gathered that the customers are mostly long-haul truck drivers from India who stop in for a shower and a familiar meal. There’s even a familiar Punjabi style “table” - don’t know the real term for it.

The food was delicious, and I’d guess it’s the most authentic Indian/Punjabi food in Missouri. Not your typical Americanized Indian food; not a buffet. Just really good food.”
