Soooo delicious and flavorful. I got the Tandoor-A-India combination dinner to go. Such a perfect assortment of food, the bengan barta was especially scrumptious. The kheer and curries are AMAZING. I switched the naan for roti, and I should have gone with nana because the roti was underwhelming. They also forgot the raita? But there was an extra different kind of chicken curry thrown in (tasted like butter chicken?), so I’m not mad. Just double check your order before you go.

One of the local favorites. Unfortunately they no longer serve lunch buffets due to the pandemic, but the lunch specials are equally phenomenal. The food and service have been consistent over the years. Parking is up on a steep hill with very tight spaces, so definitely try to find parking on the street.
