So happy we found this place. It never disappoints.The chicken vindaloo is off the charts, and they’ll make it to your desired spice level (extra spice for me). Rice is tasty and so is the garlic naan.

Had chole, daal, paneer karahi and naan. Decent vegetarian food. Obviously this place specializes in pakistani meat dishes, but our vegetarian dishes were decent.

Food was quite greasy (despite requesting less oil), but that's ok. Decent experience.

I like how they have a sink outside the bathroom makes it easy for people who just want to wash their hands. My wife and I ordered the goat karahi spicy for two. Very flavorful and we had the garlic naan as well. Delicious. We also ordered a medium size chickpeas but was disappointed with the portion. See...
