Small place but great food. Loved it
We ordered nihari and lamb roganjosh on our way back to NJ from upstate NY.
The food was exceptional, with the Nihari standing out as one of the finest preparations in the NY/NJ area. While the service and ambiance were understated, the high caliber of the cuisine easily overshadowed any operational shortcomings. Additionally, the naan was served fresh, soft, and warm. I would certainly welcome the opportunity to dine here again when visiting the area.
