The food was really good and authentic Indian cuisine with rich Indian flavors. I have tried many Indian restaurants in America but this was the best so far. The service I got there was very warming plus the girl at the cash counter was very helpful and sweet. Must recommend for Authentic Indian taste.

We thought this place would be crowded on Saturday night ~it was cold and the waitress was taking a nap while we got the menu and had to look for her…to take orders. Food was too spicy for 2 stars, thT could be my personal taste but, it’s sad we used to love this place, and I came for my birthday!
Place is kept cold even the waitress had a big coat on. I guess the open space let in all the cold air.

I really wanted to enjoy my experience here, but the lack of basic hospitality made for a very frustrating meal. We visited as a party of 4, and despite being the only people in the entire restaurant, we felt like an inconvenience from start to finish.
The Service (or Lack Thereof)
The Arrival: We were told to sit anywhere, yet we were only provided two menus for four people. It took 10 minutes for the server to notice and ask if we needed more.
Hygiene Issues: The cups provided were visibly dirty—one even had a clear lip print still on the rim. I had to specifically ask for enough place settings to match our party size.
Total Neglect: Once our food was dropped off, we never saw the server again. She spent the entire duration of our meal sitting at the front of the restaurant on her phone. We received no check-ins and no refills.
DIY Experience: I had to physically get up and go to the front counter just to ask for to-go boxes.
The Food Taste: To be fair, the food taste was decent. However, they shorted us an entire serving of rice that we paid for.
Value: Given the portion sizes and the total lack of service, the price point is simply not worth it.
The Exit: Even paying was a chore. After processing the payment, the server didn’t even hand us the receipt; she just went back to her phone. We had to reach over the counter to grab it ourselves.
Final Verdict: I would not recommend this location and I certainly won't be back. There are too many great options in Renton to settle for being ignored while dining in an empty room.

Delicious food!
I ate with my hands. I ate with utensils.
I ordered THE mateer paneer with rice and naan because I like both.
I requested potatoes added and they were accommodating.
Delicious food indeed!
