I ordered the chicken dum biryani and raita on Uber Eats. Food is expensive at this place, so expectations are higher than normal.
The reason for 4 instead of 5 stars was the raita. It’s almost $5 before tax, and it filled only half of the container. The container was not huge, just a normal size for raita. It’s good raita, but not great. There were no veggies in it, and nothing special. So if you’re charging so much, you should be more generous.
I’m Indian with a high spice tolerance, and the extra spicy was VERY spicy (I was happy about that), but next time I will order spicy. Overall, good!

I was scammed today as they charged me automatic gratuity of 20% since we were group of 5. There was no indication of 20% gratuity and none of server told it prior to serving food. They just added it to the bill and did not mention it all. I asked them for the refund but they did not give me any refund for the gratuity. Very disappointed!

Really exceptionally good food. Every dish we ordered was distinctly flavorful, with care put into the presentation. Appetizers were superb. Ordered paneer, chicken, and lamb dishes. The naan offerings were very unique and delicious (we tried three different ones). Decent sized menu, and we will be back. Enjoyed the seating setup - large tables, good for dates or family style. Decor and ambiance was nice. Went for an early date night on a Saturday.

Went there for dinner. Best Indian Food so far in Pittsburgh. Loved their Biryani and Nani's Chicken. Slightly pricy but the food was amazing.

My friend had been raving about this place for a while, so we finally decided to give it a visit. This isn’t like your typical Indian restaurant with Indian motifs and Indian music. Rather, it’s pretty modern with the bright and spacious interior and a long communal table. we started with the Tandoori chicken, which was honestly our favourite dish of the night. The spice mix was incredible, and the chicken was perfectly cooked. Within got the prawns, which again were perfectly cooked. it is very easy to overcook prawns, so to get the texture and flavour right was amazing. For the entree, we got some butter chicken and goan fish curry along with some Jeera rice and garlic naan. The entries were above average, but not the best. The butter chicken was below average, and the gravy felt like it was made from tomatoes and was way to sweet. The chicken chunks were overcooked to death. The Goan fish curry was better with some nice flavours from the coconut milk and the curry leaves, but again it was way too thick to be an authentic style of curry from the region as well as the choice of fish, which was in this case. Salmon wasn’t the right choice. It would have gone much better with some kind of whitefish. The garlic was pretty good though, as was the Jeera rice, but again I think it’s difficult to get these wrong. The entrees also come with rice, which we did not know, so we ended up wasting a little bit of the rice. Honestly, the appetisers were great, but there is definitely some work to be done on the main course. Also, the service was a little bit lack lustre and it felt like they were short staffed at times. In terms of value for money, I would say this is pretty much what you would expect to pay in a regular Indian restaurant. There are not a lot of great Indian restaurants in the area, so this is definitely a welcome addition, but I hope they improve their service and main course a bit.

Super high quality proteins perfectly cooked - food is awesome. Service was a little slow to start but once we ordered everything was on the table in 15 minutes. 100% worth any wait to eat here. Will be back for sure.

The seasonal pumpkin panna cotta, raspberry sorbet, and pistachio meringue was so good.

This beautifully simple, yet lovely restaurant has long family-style wood tables and simple decoration. The dishes are not your normal buffet-style Indian cuisine places (we do love those too!), but on another level.
The staff was attentive, kept the bottles of water coming (no wasteful already filled water glasses) and the food came quickly and was beautifully presented. We had the Palak (saag) Chaat, and it is a singular dish. I've never had anything like it. Followed by goat curry (delicious), Aachari Paneer Tikka (Indian pickle marinateand cooked cottage cheese- yum) & goat cheese naan.
We're already planning our next visit

Ordered takeout for paneer lababdar, samosa chaat, and garlic naan. Was very impressed with the rich flavor of the lababdar, with creamy and delicious gravy and perfectly cooked paneer. The garlic naan was soft and tasty and the chaat was the perfect amount of spice and seasoning. Would highly recommend to those looking for flavorful indian food and a restaurants with unique menus!
