My order - chapathi, chicken saag and lamb biryani. Biryani has no flavor and I hardly had any pieces of lamb and it looks and tastes like tomato rice. Chapathi is so thick, dried and not well cooked and finally the curd smells old and tastes very sour. I would not recommend this place if you want to enjoy indian food. Please save your money.

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.

Overall wonderful experience here! I asked about their gf menu items and preparation procedures due to a gluten allergy. Amar was able to mark up a menu for me to show me what was safe for me and what was not. His knowledge made me feel very comfortable. The food was very good and there are many safe gf options! My gluten-eating company agreed that the food was great. Will be back.

We decided to visit this place post-lunch, mainly drawn by its good ratings and thought it would be worth a try. Unfortunately, the experience fell short of expectations. The Chicken Tikka Masala tasted more like something reheated from a leftover buffet rather than freshly prepared. The portion size and overall quality didn’t justify the hype. The only saving grace was the naan, which was freshly baked and truly enjoyable. On the other hand, the Mango Lassi was overly sour, giving the impression that it wasn’t fresh at all. Overall, apart from the naan, the meal was disappointing and did not live up to the restaurant’s reputation.
