We went to have dinner just reading the reviews. I am not sure on what basis people gave 5 stars. Reviews set my expectations too high on taste and quality, but it turned into worst. We ordered Chicken Jalfrezi, Naan and Chicken Seekh Kabab. Quantity was not even sufficient for 3 people, Jalfrezi supposed to have gravy but was too dry, Kababs were not at all good in taste. Service was also too slow even it was not crowded. Overall very bad experience. Won’t visit again. One star just for cleanliness.

Loved the food and service was great! We asked for recommendation based on dietary preferences and we were very happy with the recommendations. This will definitely be the go to place for Indian cuisine for us and our visitors. Will be back again!

Amazing Indian food! And excellent service, the staff were happy to talk to our party one-on-one about what kind of dish they wanted to try and helped us make our selections. When the food came out it was hot and tasty, with an amazing variety of flavors. Really felt like a special treat.

We went there twice. The first time, as new customers, the wait staff bent over backwards to be helpful, and we really enjoyed all of the food. Best Naan I've ever had! If we had not gone back, I'd be giving 5 stars. But a couple of weeks later, we returned. One appetizer was tamarind chicken wings the sauce was so cloyingly sweet and thickly applied, it was inedible. Our chicken and shrimp entrees were good, but although they were supposed to be different sauces, they tasted exactly the same. And the waiter ignored us for most of dinner, he disappeared downstairs, and we saw him very occasionally with his nose in his phone the whole time. So that second visit was disappointing, and we've not been back since.

Great food and ambiance.

Delicate environment. Nice behavior. Hygiene and friendly location. Food ? tasted great. Food served nicely. No indigestion after having food which I normally suffer from having Indian cuisine. Enjoyed nice time with my wife.

We had seekh kabab from appetiser it was the best I had. Biriyani was very delicious and the best part about Biriyani was it not being dry. Hospitable hosts with wonderful dishes and ambiance. Highly recommended.

Excellent service. The flavors are amazing!!! 100% recommended!!!

The best around, from their vegetarian dishes to meat dishes and more. Always amazing service from the staff who are very kind and knowledgeable, fast service and a beautiful dining room. They have an amazing bar too! You MUST try the cilantro margarita, I wasn’t sure about it but I gave it a try since they said it was one of the most popular drinks - it’s one of the yummiest drinks I’ve ever had! Great recommendations!

Staff are family to all. Very polite, humble and sweet. Food is amazing, tasty and just yum yum. Luv it..
