I loved their tandoori momos. All other dishes are okayish. Street style noodles had tadka in it, tasted like a pulao.
The staff were super friendly. Very polite and attentive.
But, of all the India restaurants I have been to, this is the most hygienic place. It’s a new place but I hope they maintain it the same way as it is now.

Parking: Plenty of parking with a free parking lot.

We have ordered and been to this restaurant several times and it always is great. This time we catered an event. All the food was delicious and was the correct amount for the amount of guests we had. Communication was fantastic and friendly. The order was delivered on time and hot. There is a great selection of vegetarian items and they are all fantastic and not an afterthought as is the case with other restaurants. All of our guests asked about the food.

Nestled in the heart of downtown, The Culinary Haven offers a delightful escape for food lovers. The moment you step inside, you’re greeted by a warm ambiance featuring soft lighting and tasteful decor that sets the perfect backdrop for a memorable meal.

The service was exceptional. Our server was attentive without being intrusive, providing thoughtful recommendations and ensuring our glasses were never empty.

Now, onto the food! We started with the roasted beet salad, which was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The combination of tangy goat cheese and candied walnuts elevated the dish to another level. For the main course, I ordered the herb-crusted salmon, cooked to perfection with a crispy exterior and moist, flaky interior. It was accompanied by seasonal vegetables that were fresh and vibrant. My dining companion opted for the braised short ribs, which were melt-in-your-mouth tender and full of rich flavor.
