The lamb was so tender, shrimp was large and succulent. The chicken was moist and tender. All the seasonings used were very flavorful! The service was fast and the owners were very kind! We definitely plan on returning when we are in the area.“

Every detail was thoughtful: friendly greetings, perfectly timed check-ins, and spot-on food recommendations. You can truly feel the passion and pride this team puts into their work. And that was just the service! The food was beyond incredible. I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala and asked for it spicy—and they nailed it. The balance of flavor and heat was perfection. Every bite was rich, authentic, and unforgettable. A thousand out of ten—highly recommend! We’ll definitely be back soon.“
