Amazing Indian restaurant in San Jose downtown. Found this place by random search. The place is pretty small but service was great and very friendly staff. The dishes were quite delicious and quantity is filling. They also have weekend buffet which is really good and affordable. Highly recommend!

Happened to be in the area, seeing 4+ star ratings, decided to take-out dinner. Ordered spinach paneer, malai kofta, shahi paneer and garlic naans. Each entre comes with rice, wish they give a choice of bread or rice. Service was very quick and friendly. Anyhow, overall food was pretty good, flavorful, except naan gotten soggy / stretchy by the time reached home and ate. Few minor issues: spinach paneer had bit of sand, online prices lower than what they actually billed.

Absolutely phenomenal restaurant! Food was incredible, service was impeccable! Absolutely loved it! Drove 45min one way after reading about this place in an online magazine, and it was absolutely worth the drive!!!

Food was awesome! Staff were very helpful and friendly. My reason for 4/5 on service was just they could’ve been a little more attentive and brought water more often. However, the day I was there they were fairly busy with dining room and take out, so I assume that’s why.

I was starving when I went for the buffet here. They just opened so getting a table was pretty quick. They have a lot of veg and non-veg options. I enjoyed eating and getting all the flavors for the main course. Deducting one star as I strongly feel they could do better with the desserts, I guess it was Kheer which did not taste very good.

Heard about their buffet and went for a quick lunch midweek, but they’re currently only doing weekend buffet, so we ordered some dishes to share, and they were still very quick. We really enjoyed the tandoori chicken and butter chicken. The garlic naan and simosas were tasty too. Also, we were in and out in for lunch in about 35 minutes, with a small bag of leftovers for later. We were helped by the owner, him and his staff were very friendly and gracious. The table and dining room was clean, and the menu was full of delicious looking options. Really glad we stopped in today, I’ll indeed be back for more.

By far this is now my favorite Indian place in San Jose. Last week I was craving Indian food and after a quick search I “found” this place and believe me, its reviews are legitimate.
