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.

Excerpts

Went on a weekday evening and it happened to be their $12 egg dish Wednesday, so there was a bit of a wait just to place the order. Staff was helpful and answered our questions. Menu has veg, egg, and chicken options. What we tried: • Hum Tum (most rated): honestly below average for me. It was a bit salty and too eggy in flavor. Wouldn’t reorder. • Methi Matar Malai: the star of the meal. Really delicious and I’d come back just for this. • Green boiled egg: nice, but the eggs were really cold (not sure if that’s how it’s supposed to be). Still enjoyed it. • Mango Mastani: ended with this and it was a total flavor bomb. Overall: some dishes are hit, some are miss, but the good ones were good enough that I’d return for selective items.

Weekend afternoon, we decided to visit this place was a busy one. There were a couple of big groups and hence some noise too. The place is pretty nice and bright though. Even though the main menu is Egg-centric, they do have great variety of vegetarian dishes too. We had Pavbhaji, it was tasty but overall okay (I wish they added less Shimla Mirch). Husband loved Egg Toofani curry with white bread. We also shared a wrap which was a bit oily but delicious. Service was nice and friendly. Overall good experience.

As someone who really loves Indian food and often seeks out highly rated Indian restaurants, I was genuinely excited to try this place after reading so many positive reviews. Unfortunately, our experience was quite disappointing and far below our expectations. The quality of the food was not great. The flavors felt bland and the dishes did not taste fresh or authentic compared to other Indian restaurants I’ve tried. We were really looking forward to a rich and flavorful meal, but it didn’t live up to the hype. Service was another issue. The waitress was not very friendly or welcoming, which made the overall experience less pleasant. In addition, the food took a long time to arrive, even though the restaurant wasn’t extremely busy. Overall, I was disappointed because I had high hopes based on the reviews. As someone who truly enjoys Indian cuisine, I expected much better quality, service, and attention to detail. Sadly, this visit did not meet those expectations, and I’m not sure I would return.
