★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Athukuri Bala Saikumar · Aug 2025

The restaurant's ambiance was quite pleasant, offering a welcoming atmosphere. Unfortunately, the food completely failed to match the promising setting. The dishes were laden with an excessive amount of artificial food color, which was very unappealing. In fact, the taste was so poor and the quality so disappointing that we left most of our food on the plates. While the setting is lovely, we cannot recommend dining here based on our experience.

★★★★★ 5.0 Jennifer Agatep · Mar 2026

The food here is awesome and we are loyal take out customers!! It’s honestly some of the best Indian food in the area. The prices are on higher side and the take out dinner portions are on the smaller side, but it’s so darn good we will be back again and again! :)

★★★★★ 5.0 Kristy Winchock · Jan 2026

A couple people from my office ordered take out from here and we have since been repeat customers! The lunch specials are great. Be warned that the spicy is very spicy, even the people that love spicy were sweating a few bites in. The man at the counter was very friendly and explained what all the sauces were. Would recommend.

I've always enjoyed Indian food, but this restaurant made me LOVE Indian food. It's the best Indian food I've had to date. Now my husband and I have a craving to come back every week!

★★★★★ 5.0 Asma Khan · Jul 2025

Ordered delivery - Do yourself a favor and order their tandoori garlic roti. It is the best roti I’ve had anywhere and personally, it’s better than garlic naan. It is cooked so fragrant and the garlic flavor is so delicious. I paired it with their palak paneer and I loved it so much. Their food is amazing and I want to come back and try more dishes!!
