I’ve been looking for a good Indian spot in Gainesville. Not only did the food meet expectations, but the service was incredible. Our water glasses never got below half, and someone from the restaurant held the door for us coming in and leaving. I haven’t received service like that before, even at fancy restaurants. Will be back, soon hopefully.

By far the best place to have Indian food in the area! Service is amazing , food is amazing , atmosphere is amazing!! My family’s most favorite place to go be that for dining in , takeout or delivery.

We have been coming here for years. We are kinda far away so we can't come often (a few times a year) but that makes it a extra special treat when we stop in. It is 100% the best Indian food ever. The service is perfact. The bathrooms are the cleanest I've ever seen. The booths are sooo comfortable. I always go with my son. Hes 9 now. We started going when he was 4. Its one of his favorite restruants. They are SO nice with him too. We will never stop coming to this...
