I have traveled in India 2 years ago and have been craving for authentic India food since I came back. The search is over and the food is so good and authentic. We left so full and we will be back soon

Excellent service, if you’re interested on trying Indian food for the first time or if you already like it, this restaurant is an excellent option. Big portions, great flavors and fair prices.

Delicious spicy cuisine!! I had tadka dal, very rich and flavorful (a little spicy but excellent flavor) and hubby had the fried pomfret fish and shrimp schezuan noodles which he raved about. We will definitely be back! Such a nice atmosphere and really nice people, Nira was great
