Will start off by saying the service is great, staff is super friendly and the food was prepared really fast. For the French Market the price is also great! If you’re a vegetarian this place will have the most amount of options for you. That being said, food is pretty average. The flavors are pretty toned down for an Indian restaurant but I still thought it was tasty, this is most noticeable in the samosas. I also found the saag paneer really watery. I will say I am impressed with the paneer itself though.

Ended trying the aloo gobi wrap, it was okay. Not super spicy and didnt expect there to be rice inside so more than a wrap it was an aloo gobi burrito. Staff was super nice and friendly and quantity was a lot. This french market is a great place for a quick bite between meetings

Chicken Biryani is not good. Only a few pieces of chicken. Doesn’t have the beans from the advertised picture!

I used to eat here very frequently before covid but haven’t been back in a long time because they’re not open late enough. But, I just stopped by for lunch and I’m afraid I can’t recommend it any longer. It used to be a good value, but the prices have gone up (understandable), while the portion sizes have gone way down. Also, it just seems much more bland than I remember. The naan they serve now is half the size it used to be, and not as good. Portions of rice and dal makhani I was served were much smaller than they used to serve. I understand the increased prices, but the much reduced portion sizes, and lack of flavor are deal breakers. I’m afraid I won’t be back.

For years, this was my favorite rare lunch treat that I could rationalize by taking half home for dinner. Unfortunately, the portions have shrank significantly, most obviously with the literally half-size naan. At the same time, the prices have gone up. I understand it’s as a result of covid and inflation, but the quality has also unfortunately decreased. Food is not as flavorful, the samosa inside was dry, and the sauces seem thin and watered down. Today, I received raw red onions in my meal instead of pickled for the first time. They also seem to have eliminated the punch cards. This is a tough review to write since I have loved them, but I doubt I’ll return after this.

Absolutely Delicious! I got the Chicken Tikka Masala, Aloo Gobi and a Mango Lassi. I wish I had the foresight to take pictures before because I devoured this as fast as I could. The meat was cooked perfectly and the lassi..wow! It’s been hard to find really good quality Indian food lately, but I think I just found me new favorite spot 🙂

Pathetic taste of Biryani. Never going here again. Rice lost its all moisture

Useless selection, watery curry and has no taste. Top of poor quality, you are asking customers to pay 18% tip. Will never go here again. The lamb curry has no taste.

OK, I’ve eaten at this one, as well as the restaurant that used to be on Orleans. While the spices have been toned down for an American palette, this is still the best Indian food I have ever had! The only reason for deducting a star is the limited menu. Will continue to happily visit, and look forward to bigger and better things from these great people.
