This is my favorite Indian takeout spot in downtown Manhattan. Their portions are very large (I can use one order to meal prep for the next day!) making their prices very reasonable and generous. Each dish is so fresh, aromatic, and distinct in flavor. If you’re new to Indian cuisine, I highly recommend trying here! You’ll be hooked.

We’re not very familiar with Indian cuisine, but we had a wonderful experience here! A very kind gentleman guided us and recommended that we share a variety of dishes, which made the meal even more enjoyable. The flavors were rich and authentic, and we loved getting to try different things. Great food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend for anyone—whether you’re a fan of Indian food or trying it for the first time!
