The service is always excellent, great price to food quality ratio. If you go, definitely give the thali meals a try- a little bit if everything to share, cooked and seasoned to perfection. My family and I love this restaurant!!

Ordered the chicken tikka masala and it had to be the worst masala I’ve ever eaten. It tasted like straight up tomato soup. Would not recommend. My sweet husband ended up getting food for us at Tandoor instead where I know the food will be great! Wish I hadn’t taken the chance in the first place just for the sake of convenience.

This is the closest Indian food to my house and I’ve always gotten take-out from here. It’s good enough to bring me back and I’ve never had to go look anywhere else. The mango lassi is delicious! The food is also pretty tasty. We always get garlic naan or cheese naan and they’re pretty standard. As we are some of the most basic people ever, we always get chicken tikka masala or shrimp vindaloo, always good. Once I got paneer tikka masala and the paneer was quite bland. We’ll be ordering again soon!

First timer here and in a nutshell, will never go back. I must disclose, I am of Indian descent so I know what good Indian food is supposed to taste. I’ve even travelled across the pond to India and has some of the best Indian cuisines in my life, so my standards may be off putting however, I have had Indian food here in the states and somewhat lowered my standards. Now, lets get to the food. I ordered the mango lassi, veg platter for an appetizer, and the paneer do piazza. The mango lassi hit the table first and it started off as a hit. Next, the veg platter came through and it was an appetizer sampler with a samosa, spring onion and potato pakoda, fried paneer, and a fried aloo square piece. All these dishes on the sampler were good, except for the paneer and it was only breaded with a bland paneer cube with no spices or previously grilled before frying. At this point into my dinner, I was content and was looking forward to my main course, the Paneer Do Piazza, which is supposed to come with green bell peppers, onions, and paneer in a tomato cream gravy. This definitely turned my opinion on the food the other way. First of all, the gravy tasted like tomato ketchup, yuck! Even looking at the color of the gravy, you can tell it was ketchup based. Secondly, there was only one bell pepper cube in there, and I didn’t even see any onions. I only took one spoonful and was done. I didn’t even bother taking the leftovers home as no one in my household would dare to touch it. The restaurant was completely empty, btw, so you’d think the service would be fast paced but NO. We literally asked for the check and it took so long to get it, I had to go up to the waitress and ask if we had to pay up front or do we continue to wait at our table. She said she would get our checks to our table. 5 minutes more pass by and still there was no check, so I decided to take initiative and go up to the counter to pay. Tasteless food and in addition, poor and slow service. I will most certainly not go back. 2 star rating because the appetizer and drink were tasty otherwise, if those failed, it would be a 1 star to 0 star rating.

Everyone wore a mask (over the nose), gloves, and stood back a little bit when talking (not too far, but not hovering). They used to have cloth on the table (a year ago?) but I assume they stopped so they can clean the tables. There were empty tables or large gaps to keep people separate.

we are open why is showing close
