Stopped in for lunch and had an absolutely wonderful experience. The Mocktails were an unexpected treat and were very good! My Butter Masala Paneer dish was so flavorful and full of good spice and the Goat Curry 🍛 was perfect. The rice was light and fluffy and a perfect serving station for my meal and sauce! My garlic naan was just super tasty. I understand why this location is highly rated. It's so, so good! It has a nice big space outdoors (I loved the couple hanging chairs that they had!) and a nice cozy interior with a lot of tvs near the bar area. I would absolutely come back and I encourage anyone who is a fan of Indian food to check this spot out. Parking may be a factor if you drive primarily so plan accordingly (or be prepared to park and walk). Excellent job to the chef staff and wait staff. Absolutely yummy!

This Indian restaurant is absolutely delightful! The butter chicken and chicken korma are both outstanding — the chicken is incredibly tender, practically melting in your mouth with every bite. The garlic naan arrives warm, soft, and full of flavor, perfect for soaking up those rich, aromatic sauces. The East Indian Gimlet is light, refreshing, and a great complement to the meal. What really makes the experience special is the service. The waitress — and the entire staff — are genuinely kind and attentive, always making sure you have everything you need without being intrusive. Their warmth adds a personal touch that makes you feel truly welcome. If you’re in downtown Phoenix, this is a must-try spot. The combination of authentic flavors, relaxing atmosphere, and exceptional service makes it one of those places you’ll want to return to again and again.

Absolutely outstanding Indian Cuisine! Very friendly and respectful staff in a chill atmosphere right in the city with excellent patio option. Being from the UK where this type of restaurant is very popular I had been searching for that same taste and I found right here! My new go to.
