The food here is exceptional, reminiscent of a delightful home-cooked Indian meal. Every dish is incredibly flavorful. I've sampled a variety of appetizers and main courses, all of which were superb. The service is outstanding; the staff are incredibly kind and attentive. Despite being fully booked, the hosts ensured we received excellent care throughout our visit. I would definitely recommend.

So happy they’re back open! Hands down the best South Indian food on Long Island! Their dosas are unbeatable. And don’t miss the Indo-Chinese Hakka noodles, my absolute favorite. A cozy, homely spot that always hits the mark.
