The appetizers were really delicious and tasty. The service was very nice. The dishes were flavorful and plentiful. The only complaint was that my cocktail was very weak and boring.

I ordered the chicken biryani. It wasn’t very good. I asked for it to be spicy, but it wasn’t spicy enough. The worst part was that it didn’t come with raita.

Unpretentious solid Indian place. The dining area is small but warm, although as a local I usually do takeout so I can enjoy their food in my pajamas.

The curries are better than the biryanis IMO due to being moister. The goan fish curry, the lamb karahi, and their vegetarian curries are all good. Highly recommend splurging for the peas pulao as well. Bread-wise I like the parathas.

Edited Dec 2025 - adding photos and more comments. Our most recent order, we received more protein in the dishes. The food is better, and while some of the dishes werent season enough for our tastes (mattar paneer, malai kofta), the spicier dishes had flavor, and the naan was good. The duck was very tough, but we did enjoy the vegetarian dishes.

One of the worst Indian food experiences I have had. We ordered both lamb and chicken curries (vindaloo, and tikka masala, respectively). Not only was the spice level and flavor poor, there were 5 pieces of chicken and 4 lamb. Less than half a pound of each meat for like $15-16. That’s about $40 a pound. Awful place

These guys don't know how to cook. Bland, no salt, no flavor unseasoned food. Samosa chat and Paneer masala apps. Was my 2nd seamless order. Not ordering again. Food is not meant for Indian diaspora.

This place is fantastic! The lamb vindaloo in particular was to die for! 10/10 will come back!
