Raw chicken with visible blood inside. Photos attached. Completely unsafe and honestly disgusting. There’s clearly no hygiene or professionalism here. The food tasted terrible, and it doesn’t seem like there’s a trained chef in the kitchen. The restaurant was empty, and after this experience, it’s obvious why. Do not eat here. Avoid.

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.

Crossposting from Yelp: I make a concerted effort to support local businesses, but this place makes it nearly impossible. I have eaten here on a couple occasions, and as another review pointed out, the cleanliness of the kitchen makes it feel unsafe to patronize. Also, as a community member, they are a nightmare. They repeatedly leave boxes and food waste unsecured in the adjacent alley. At one point, they left an entire trash bag of spoiled chicken in the alley in the middle of summer. They don't secure their grease trap, so it gets full of other trash, which makes me wonder if they are even properly disposing of grease. Absolutely terrible business.

We got the chole bhature, malai soya chaap and kadi chawal. The first two were fantastic but the kadi lacked flavor and unfortunately is not served with basmati but instead with some short grained rice. I love that they provide mirchi (green chilis) on the side and their chai is just like mom’s.
