This wonderful Indian restaurant located inside Lotte market allows you to both shop and eat in one trip! The tables located just outside the counter are really clean and tidy, with barely any mess left behind. The chole and the chur chur naan was some of the best I’ve ever had, tasting very rich and savory, leaving a good taste in the mouth. The naan was very soft and buttery, and paired with the flavorful chole made the perfect combo. The paneer was also very very flavorful...

I know this place is inside a Lotte grocery store, but don’t let that fool you—the food is outstanding. I absolutely love their dal makhani and fresh naans. In my opinion, this is some of the best Punjabi fast-casual food you can get. I highly recommend giving it a try and not letting the simple ambiance deter you—it’s all about the flavors here!

The cashier, Sonu, is well-mannered; she knows her stuff, is always smiling, always on her toes, and unhinged; the food that I tried is authentic and flavourful. The atmosphere is somewhat okay.
