Reviews
This was seriously good food. This was our first time eating here, and we ordered take out online. The process was painless, but I highly recommend going in person or at least calling your first time. I don't have a high spice tolerance, but I'm usually fine ordering mild. That was so not the case here. My family of 6 (all except my husband, who thought the medium was perfect) drank so much milk to offset the "mild" entrees! So next time, I'll make sure to leave a note that we need American mild, not Indian mild! And there will definitely be a next time, it was so delicious even being too spicy.
The food here is amazing! We were so pleased with our lunch, and will definitely be back. Our service was excellent - Arsh was very attentive and easy going. The portions are huge, everything was made fresh, and the restaurant is very clean and nice. I recommend the tandoori chicken and butter chicken, both were very juicy and tender. The lamb was amazing as well, great spice. Thank you so much for having us!
This restaurant deserves more love and visits as their food is DELICIOUS! A friend took us here and honestly I probably wouldn't have visited by the low reviews and stars but it seems that they've recently changed ownership, and it seems for the better. The curries here are so creamy and full of flavors. My fav were the Goat Curry and Chicken Tikka Masala. The naans were so fluffy and just went perfectly with the curries! Service was friendly and food came out quickly. Overall a fantastic experience.
Under old management this place used to not have any taste to their food. But they have renewed their management and food tastes much better. The staff are incredibly polite and nice. They have a lot of options to choose from and have many vegetarian options as well. They do dine in and sit down as well. They do sweets package in gift boxes too. The do not have outside seating and have plenty of parking space. Their ambience is good but the decor could be better for an Indian restaurant. They are located right on US 36 and it is easy to locate. We will definitely try this place again especially for their Paneer Tikka Masala. Delicious!!
My brother and I decided to go out for dinner and I saw this place out of the corner of my eye a couple days before. So we decided to try it. We chose correctly. The food was in good portions and perfectly seasoned and spiced. When I picked from the menu I looked in the vegetarian and there was a huge list. So I just looked at the server and pointed at whatever my finger landed on and it was magical. Holy crap. My brother and I left very happy. So stoked! Will be returning ASAP to try more stuff on the menu.
