This place is a 10/10 if you’re looking for authentic Indian food this should be your go-to. The food is flavorful and the quantity is always plentiful. Mr.Lovash (the owner) is one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet if you get a chance to chat with him it will only enhance your experience there. Be sure to tip his staff they work hard and are always sweet.

Its was my first time here and I ordered the rack of lamb chops and, man where they delicious, and the sauce was like J.J.Walker from (Good Times ) they where dynamite (as well as). Young man with great ambition and hospitality from start to finish. On South st 236 Philadelphia pa. I will definitely come back to eat and try something else. Everything that I gave five stars - its was true. A South Philadelphia man speaks

This place was absolutely amazing. Ordered the Saag Paneer and Mushroom Vindaloo plus a Chai and a Mango Lassi. There wasn't one thing we ordered here that didn't leave us impressed.
Service was also extremely good and the ambience was very nice inside. I wish I had found this place near where I live instead of while traveling!
