A surprisingly gem tucked away in the shopping center. They have a very comprehensive menu and are happy to make standard dishes (vindaloo for example) that are not on the menu. Portion sizes are generous and the food is very good. Everything is made to order and they’re very willing to adjust spice levels to whatever your preference is.

I like Indian curry and I’ve been to so many Indian restaurants. I ordered Chicken Tikka Masala, Saag Paneer and Garlic Nan as To-Go. Garlic nan was okay, but both curries looked watery and weren’t even Chicken Tikka. It should be creamy orange with a creamy flavor, but this one isn’t, as you can see. And Chicken Tikka does not contain paprika! The curry both tasted bad. It was my first time here, but I don’t think I will return.

I’m a fan of biryani and I always like it Indian hot and nobody can make it that hot except this place. This was the best biryani I’ve ever had not only was there a ton of lamb but they also had cashews in it which was a nice touch, the service was excellent. The woman who took my order was very patient answered all my questions and was incredibly polite and friendly When I got to the restaurant. I will absolutely be back and this is my new favorite Indian restaurant.

Food was incredible. Flavors were on point with heat as it should be (never heat for the sake of heat, it all had incredible flavor) well worth the visit! Garlic naan and samosas were the favorite of the night. Tandoori chicken was insane!

I gave this 5 stars 4 years ago. This was my favorite Indian restaurant. Yesterday, June 4, 2022, I drove my family of 3, 35 to 40 minutes on a Saturday evening and arrived at 7:30, and there appeared to be about 6 tables of guests. The restaurant looked like it was at 1/3 to 1/2 capacity. At first, I was told they would not take us. Then that it would be a 45 minute wait. We left. I doubt that I will waste gas trying to go here again.

ok food, didn’t taste authentic at all. I would not visit here again. Appetizers were over fried to the point that it looked dark brown and not golden brown. Prices are ridiculously high, and it doesn’t look like they knew the correct receipt for malai kofta or butter paneer. Also, the rice they used was cheap white rice and not Sona Masoori or Basmati, for the price they are charging they should be using good quality rice.

The food that I ordered from this location wasn’t as good as the West Lake location. My Chicken Korma and saffron rice was dry and overcooked and it didn’t taste authentic by any means. It was a waste of $30.+. I was very disappointed.
