Fantastic food. Great flavors and spice level. Definitely a hole in the wall worth discovering. Kind staff, good service. Entrance to the parking lot is a little steep. Bathroom toilet is oddly elevated.

Both my wife and I had to wait near IAH and through our search we found this place and we are Sai glad we did. In short, excellent food and excellent service. Everything we ordered were cooked fresh. Overall, it was a delicious and delightful experience.

We ate here straight after our flight into Houston as it was close to our hotel. The food was very nice and every dish was made fresh. The chicken tandoori was especially good. We were helped by Anderson who was kind and friendly to us during our visit. I would come back here again and would recommend people to give it here.

If you’re on the fence/unsure, please just try it out! We stumbled upon it and we weren’t sure what to expect. It’s fun, it’s unique, it’s cozy, and you feel like family. The food was very yummy! We got 3 great curries and we especially loved the okra - I always order okra at Indian restaurants and I would come back just to order 5 more plates of it.

I gave this place a try a few days ago. Let me tell yall it was delicious and all this time i would go to southwest to get some indian. I was going to put my review the day i ate it but said let me give it a few days make sure it didnt make me sick but nope all was good ...the butter chicken i ordered extra spicy and the flavors delivered and the garlic butter naaan so soft and flavorful. I wanted a mango lassi but i went kind of late and they didnt have any that was a bummer ....the plates dont come with rice you have to buy that separately which i thought to be weird but hey their rules not mine right .. I will most definitely be going back soon.

The food tasted terrible. I ordered chicken fried rice and noodles, requesting Indian-style with spice. Instead, they gave me white rice with grilled chicken—no chili powder or any other spices—just plain white rice with a bit of salt and grilled chicken. When I told them this wasn't what I ordered, they said it was their style of preparation. For anyone looking for Indian-style flavors and spices, I recommend not ordering from here.

I ordered the prawns briyani, green beef potato curry, garlic naan, and roti. It was so delicious and full of home like flavor. Anderson was so helpful and made conversation while I was waiting for my food. 10/10 will be back when I come back to Houston.

My brother was in town and we had a taste for some Indian food, so we expected to drive some distance to get it. Found this gem-of-a-place right around the corner from us and was pleasantly surprised to find really good Indian food so close. The service was excellent, the food rich and flavorful, and we even enjoyed the music: it was a great dining experience! The price (especially for the quality) was very good: we spent $65 for the two of us, and that's with both of us having beer with our meals and deserts afterward. Had we just ordered the entrees (including rice and bread), we would have easily left there at about $20-$25 each. We'll be back! Often! (We did inquire, they do have take-out and Door-dash/Uber-eats options.)

Vegetarian options: We didn't eat Vegetarian ourselves, but we did notice they had many clearly-marked Vegetarian options on the menu.
