Restaurant was comfy and quite. My husband and I went to there ordered different varities, liked the most was chili paneer- delicious the taste of it. Paneer Sabzi was having taste but needed some salt sprinkled on the top with side onions. My husband just little disappointed by seeing small hair from roti. But, so far everything was good. Recommended place.
