This was the first Indian place I tried in California. The chicken tikka masala was outstanding. The tandoori mixed grill appetizer was under seasoned for my liking. I am Indian and have tried many different places mostly in Chicago area. I would go back again but everything is alacart which makes it pricier than it should be. I'm used to rice being included with the curry at no extra charge. Overall it was a great experience for a date night and I will definitely be back to try more dishes.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

We discovered a new place with Indian cuisine! The restaurant is very cozy, with a view of the mountains! The food was delicious, and the ingredients were clearly all fresh! You absolutely must try the Indian tea! We will definitely come back again to try the wide selection of authentic dishes!

We had the best experience here! Delicious food, impressive presentation, and incredible service. Ranjeet, the owner, was so kind and kept asking all the guests if there was anything they needed. The commitment towards making it a great experience really shows! We would love to come back again.
