We (family, two children) have tried several Indian restaurants in this and other areas. Both kids have chosen this establishment (given full range of choices) for their birthday dinners for the last two years. Literally a mom- and- pop restaurant, we appreciate great food and service every time we come, which is at least once a month.

My husband and I went for lunch and got the lunch specials. At $14 each, it was a tremendous value for the amount of food. I left completely stuffed. The food is delicious and the service was wonderful. We’ll definitely be back.
May 2025
I don't know much about Indian dishes but the lunch special had a little bit of everything and also has a vegetarian option. I expected a decent meal for the price and was surprised by how much better than simply decent it was. I'll definitely be back
