★★★★★ 5.0 Arnold · Dec 2025

One of the better Indian restaurants in the area. Ambiance is warm and inviting with a big communal table and small booths for couples or friends. Tried a variety of different dishes, all had great unique flavors and were spiced really well. The server Gustavo was very knowledgeable and explained all the dishes we ordered in great detail which helped a lot. My favorite was the butter chicken, it's not your typical butter chicken, the spices and everything are different and it's very tasty! Everything else was good too! I just wish the dessert was a bit bigger, maybe four Gulab balls instead of two because they're very small. Parking is a bit difficult but you can find a garage.

Such a tasty Indian street food restaurant! Went for happy hour at the bar which was such a good deal. Their martinis are tasty! Enjoyed a dosa and cauliflower dish! My non vegan partner had the butter chicken and devoured it. We will be back for dinner and another happy hour!

I had SUCH a pleasant experience here. My bestie and I sat at the bar and had a delightful and interactive experience!!! The food was FIRE and the cocktails were delish. The star of the show for us was the paneer. We also got the butter chicken and it was gas (not pictured). Literally loved. Incredible service. Need to return

Phenomenal food. The best butter chicken I've ever had- the black garlic oil is the perfect touch and a cool presentation. Our server was the absolute best, we basically let her order for our group and it was perfect.

Their spice is so unique. I didn't know what gunpowder masala tasted like, but now I do! Very knowledgeable and friendly staff. Offers flavors from diverse regions. Can't wait to try more dishes!
