First time eating Indian food!!! It was very good..if you have GERD I will not recommend this place. ? They didn't get my order right either..but they were willing to fix it quickly.

Absolutely loved this place. The customer service and the food were equally great. The buttermilk chicken and the garlic chilli naan are a must have. The server was very attentive and kept checking on us. I'm definitely going to be visiting this spot when I'm in AC.

Decided to stay in Atlantic City for the weekend and my wife and I were craving curry. Food was great! Service was quick. Best tikka masala. The owners were wonderful and made a point to come and ask how we were doing. Can't wait to come back.
