It's the best Indian food in town, hands down, especially since Saffron closed. I want to try everything else but the paneer biryani is just too good. The chili garlic naan and the 65 dishes (chicken and gobi/cauliflower) are also fantastic. It's hard to find, but Google Maps will get you there. It's in a grocery store, so dont expect to have a romantic candlelit dinner there, but the staff is super friendly and helpful. Do yourself a favor and get a Limca from the grocery to go with your meal. It's a lime-forward Indian Sprite-like drink made by Coca Cola.

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 have been buying Indian food a couple of times and it’s pretty good. Only wished the spice level is lower despite ordering mild.

I hate to give this restaurant less than five stars. Their food tastes excellent and it’s quite reasonably priced as Indian food goes here in town. However, I’ve gotten take out twice now and both times I asked for mild spice, but got medium hot instead, and the first time the biryani was seriously hot. I don’t mind hot Indian food, but my spouse can’t eat it that hot and it ruined her food for her. I thought it was a mistake the first time, but now that it’s happened the second time, I don’t think I’ll be back. It’s a shame because I was really happy we got an Indian restaurant in that area. Why only cater to people who prefer super spicy Indian food and not respect that some don’t find it enjoyable?
