GoogleCame here after a long day and needed something filling. Ordered a mix of tandoori items and curry, and everything tasted rich and fresh. Portions were generous, and I didn’t feel overloaded with oil. It felt like a proper, honest meal.

GoogleFood is amazing! I recommend the chicken tikka masala & beef seekh kabobs. The chicken tikka masala is the best I’ve ever had, it has a nice Smokey flavor to it. The beef seekh kabobs are also very flavorful. The service is good, little bit slow but otherwise nice. Atmosphere is clean but I think the restaurant is meant for catering big parties so there’s all the big catering equipment out in the dining area. It would be nice if they played some music or something since it was really quiet. Done in experience is good. Take out packaging is amazing. Delivery also was amazing, they even packed the salad in the delivery.

GoogleAlthough the staff were very kind, unfortunately the food was not good. It was mostly flavorless and very bland. The curry had a weird after taste in your mouth after you have eaten it. The bread was mostly burnt and very stiff. The only dish that I could somewhat eat was the onion in the chicken dish. The staff on the other hand was very kind and helpful. Although there was a language difference, we still had great service. The atmosphere was attempted to do a, fancy restaurant feel with the dark lights. However, it looked very dimly lit and had a dirty, abandoned feel. And there was this constant feeling of being watched, but I'm pretty sure that was just me as my niece and nephew had no problem in the restaurant. It's not THAT kid friendly as the food was spicy. That was all I have to say. Summary: food was bland, restaurant was dirty, not kid palatable, but the restaurant staffs were nice and cooperative. 😓

GoogleWay overpriced. I made the mistake of having my curiosity get the best of me when I tried this Indian restaurant over my usual spot. The chicken kabob meal displayed on the window was shown with kabob, rice and salad. What I got when I came home from the takeout was three small pieces of skewers and a salad. $15 for that. Look at my photo. Not lying.
