I believe they have the best chicken tikka masala in town!! So buttery creamy pairs good with rice and the garlic naan! According to the server they make their naan authentic way. Love their appetizers too samosa and those chicken tenders.

PROS:The food tasted good. The chai was excellent and didn’t taste like it was made from some type of instant powder. Service was good. There was no wait and it was clean inside.CONS:1) I’ve never been to an Indian restaurant that doesn’t serve naan WITH their meal. It’s like when you get food at Mexican restaurant, you get chips and salsa. It just comes with it. You typically don’t have to ask for it, and definitely not pay for it. I’ve never been to an Indian restaurant where you have to pay for the naan the side. Especially at $4.99 EACH piece of garlic naan. I’m just glad I know how to make Indian food myself. But it was my birthday, so I was being treated.2) Rice portions: also, I’ve never seen a restaurant serve one portion of rice to be shared among two people. It was about 1/2 a cup cooked. Normally, at restaurants you would receive rice with each person‘s entrée. I heard this place used to have a buffet before the pandemic, so why is it that now they’re being so chintzy with their portions? We did get full off the servings, but it was because we were eating really slow I think.3) I had ordered lamb vindaloo and there was maybe three or four pieces of lamb, and the rest was potatoes and so much sauce it was ridiculous. That is what the naan bread is for but because we didn’t have but one piece, I just left all that there. We didn’t see any point to buying a whole other piece for $4.99. Naan is not that expensive to make.4) Food was very overpriced for the portions received. Again, it was filling, but I am from California and have been to so many Indian restaurants and never saw such small plates in my life. I know you’re probably thinking that oh Americans eat big portions. I agree some restaurants do over do it a bit. But do they think by putting food on tiny plates it will make it look bigger? Plus the “sampler” appetizer was a joke. Any restaurant would serve two items of each sample appetizer because typically people share. But this thing was so small we had to cut everything in half. The sampler plate was barely 4”x3” big. I was not expecting that.5) This is the kicker for me. I saw beef on the menu. I was shocked! NEVER in my life has any Indian restaurant I’ve EVER seen have beef. If they are to be true to their culture, they would not serve that. Cows are considered so sacred they don’t even touch them. They’ll stop traffic and people will wait for them to cross the road rather than push them out of the way. I know they’re probably trying to cater to the locals here, but man, stay true to your culture and just say no to beef.So if you have a lot of cash, not too hungry, and want to spend a lot of money on a little bit of food, this place is for you. I’ll continue searching for a better place. This is my first Indian restaurant I’ve been to in Ohio and it won’t be my last.
