As a South Asian, I went in with no expectations, because I eat this food all the time and don’t usually get impressed. But… I was blown away! The food is REALLY flavorful, fresh, and delicious. Portions and prices are decent too. Their spicy food is actually spice, which I love. We happened to come across this place while on a roadtrip and it was one of the best Indian foods I’ve ever had. Highly recommend!

Terrible employees. It was my first time trying this place so I was unsure what to get. The employees were no help so I went with something that looked good. Got the food and a sweet tea. The tea came out first and had some nasty minty taste to it so I didn’t drink that. Then came the food that had so much seasoning on it that it was disgusting. When telling the employees this, I was ignored and still charged full price for food and drink that wasn’t even touched. Come on guys. At least ask me how you can make my experience happier. Have a little customer service skills since you run a customer service business.

This place was amazing! We didn’t want to go by the beach because of the bikers so we drove allllll the way to Florence because we’ve never been and it was amazing!!! Melanie was our server and she was so sweet! It was a really good experience too! Food was the best I’ve ever had! It’s honestly the best restaurant experience I’ve ever had! Thanks Melanie!

My favorite place to eat! The staff is so kind and the food is impeccable and the flavors of every dish even the tea is other worldly. If you love Indian food this place is the gold standard.

I was in a party of five. Only restaurant I have even been to that gave you bottled water with not much option in other drink. That is okay. I would have ordered water anyhow. Just odd. But waitress was slow in coming to our table. Was it because we were obvious new to them? Felt that way. She chatted with others while ignoring us. But the big issue, she did a terrible job helping those who had no idea what Indian food was like. She was not accurate in the heat level of some dishes asked about and some of the options. Our group of five was four adults and one child. Only one adult (myself) was pleased with their dish. But understood the food options better due to my Thai experiences than the others did. Those three left very disappointed with how poorly the taste was described and I do agree the waitress really missed it. The owner/manager was far from professional from walking in the door to leaving. Failed to see the Health Department code which is suppose to be in public posting and maybe I just missed it. I really suggest anyone who is not familiar with Indian food to be educated on the taste and seasonings used before dining here.

Went with friends for lunch on a Sunday, they were open when most restaurants in Florence are closed on Sundays. Very nice food spiced to order. The lamb dish my friend had he said was really delicious. They have a really nice selection of Vegan and Vegetarian dishes which my other friend and I ordered from. Good service. I will go again. Nice to find good Indian food here I haven't had that since I moved down from NYC.Only minus was plastic utensils.

This place really brings the heat. The food is banging, for sure, and the people are friendly, but (and I cannot stress this enough) you MUST order a sweet tea. It might just change your life. I mean it, no joke

DELICIOUS! We were so happy to have found this place. Staff is courteous and knowledgeable of their menu. Most especially, though, the food was superb! Fresh and delicious! We’ve eaten at Indian restaurants up and down the east coast, this place by far ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.

Fabulous Indian food! Great menu with everything you could possibly want. Good comes out hot and quick. Best butter chicken I’ve ever had! We have tried several other entrees and apps and have never been disappointed. Prices are reasonable and portions are large. I always get at least one more meal with my leftovers. Highly recommended.

I would say the chicken tandoori (spicy) was delicious and very Dhabha style , not on the roasted side but love it , the khachumbar salad is a MUSTT try yall , it’s the bomb , the chefs special was meh and the okra(bhindi) was okay too but their Tandoori , salad and their naan are the reason for their 4 stars.
