One of the best restaurant in Colorado Springs. Front staff is kind and patient. Food was really tasty and satisfied the taste buds. They serve alcohol as well. No wait on weekdays. They have good veg options as well! Neat and clean restaurant. Food was served hot and tasty! Lots of Parking available. Can be located right next to the road! Best place for Indian food. Worth for money !

Ok, so even if the food was out of this world (which it wasn’t), I would still never return to this place. First of all, I went by myself for a quick lunch. I ordered chicken with some kind of sauce and the dish came with rice. I also ordered a “garlic” naan bread. However, the waiter kept asking me, “Is that it? Is that all you want?” (as if he was expecting me to order a whole banquet for myself) and with a major attitude. I told him that it was just me and didn’t need anything else and he made a face that expressed sheer frustration. For my utensils, I got a fork and a big spoon but no knife. I wanted to ask for one but the guy disappeared and never came back until he brought me the check. To make matters worse, the food was nothing to brag about either. The garlic naan did not taste like garlic at all and it lack flavor. The chicken was not too bad and it did taste of fresh ingredients which was good. However, because of their costumer service and because they made me feel as if they were doing me a favor as opposed to being a paying customer, I will never return. And just for the record, I’m well aware that anybody can have a bad day. So, to give these people the benefit of the doubt, I asked around to see if it was just my luck that day but it turns out that this is their common practice. Also, to be completely fair, the person who brought me my food (I assume was the cook) was very nice and pleasant. Still, I will not revisit.

To a non indian palate foods are great, but to an Indian it’s a decent restaurant. They have a limited menu by indian standard but good enough satiate your cravings. The ambience and services are good but there is always room for improvement. Would definitely recommend this restaurant

We had ordered Kadhai paneer and garlic naan. The food was good and they offer vegan and gluten free options as well.

We got the mango cocktail, strawberry cocktails to drink. Both refreshing on a hot day. We also got the vegetable pakoras, garlic butter naan (amazing), butter chicken (very good and the medium heat is not very spicy), & lamb biryani (also not spicy). Everything was so delicious. The service was fast & attentive. Will definitely be back!

First timer at Indian cuisine of this caliber. Everything was absolutely delicious. Started with the Onion Pakora and Cuto salad. Fresh and crispy with a couple dipping sauces. Then had the Lamb Mahkni medium spice level. It was tender, rich, and perfectly spiced. A side of the Cheese Naan was great for dipping in the wonderful sauce and also added a side of yogurt sauce and Achar (pickled fruit) that rounded off the entire meal. Portion sizes are more than plentiful. I dined alone, so needless to say I have many leftovers! Can’t wait to return!

One of the halal Indian food joints in COS. Their ambience is different. Some of their items were very tasty. Like their lemon shrimp, garlic naan, lamb coriander curry and mango lassi. Lamb biryani was ok and passable. Their chicken chilli was liked cooked in tomato sauce! The staff was very cordial and helpful in choosing the dishes.

My wife and I dined in and we were not disappointed. I ordered “Indian Spicy” and that tasted great! If mine had been a bit hotter then i may not have enjoyed it, so if you like enjoyable spice then you can’t go wrong. Definitely coming back for dine-in and take out!

All 6 naan we ordered were burnt. 3 reg & 3 garlic. $27 for burnt bread. The tikka masala & curry were good.

We came in here kind of late in the evening, but it was definitely worth it! The food was really good and the service was excellent. This first dish was his and it’s lamb. Mine was probably chicken, I can’t remember (3-15-2019), but my memories of the place and the food were that it was excellent and I was happy and satisfied! 😉 The naans did have a lot of butter or oil on them, but that was probably my only and very minor complaint. 🙂
