Came here with some friends to check it out. As soon as we walked we were greeted with friendly smiles and seated right away. Drinks were brought out and we ordered a few appetizers to try. The waiter took the time to explain some of the dishes to us and we ordered our meals. The appetizers came out quickly. The chicken pokora and chicken samosas were equally amazing, fresh and bursting with flavor. They were great with and without the accompanying sauces. The butter chicken was rich, spicy and a touch of sweet. The chicken vindaloo was spicy and very flavorful. Generous portions. I would highly recommend giving this place a try, cant wait to go back

Fantastic meal! The appetizer platter was delicious and our waiter was kind enough to explain what we were trying. It was delicious. We had the butter chicken and chicken curry, they were both fantastic and very flavorful. The naan could have been more garlicky but was still good! Only downside was it did take a bit to get our food but again once it came out, it was delicious! Very spacious area!

We went to dinner with no intentions of getting Indian food but the other place was closed. We didn’t even know there was an Indian place in the area so we decided to stop in and omg am I glad we did!!!! My favorite Indian place closed years ago in the north towns and haven’t found a decent place until now. I had lamb biryani and my husband had the chicken vindaloo. The herbs in biryani were so delicious, the meat was so tender, and it had a slight spice- so good. The vindaloo was so so so creamy and the flavor was just right. We both devoured our plates and could’ve licked the plates clean. I also washed it down with a mango lassi. The cook/owner came out with samples of her dessert that were so delicious. I would’ve ordered some but I was so deliciously full I couldn’t breathe haha. Cann

My bestie and I went here for lunch today, and everything was amazing! We couldn’t decide what to order, so we tried several things from the menu; an appetizer platter, butter chicken, chicken 65, kofta something, cheesy naan, and cauliflower naan (no regrets 😅). We also had the chai tea, which was honestly the best we’ve ever had. It was such a cozy little bistro on a rainy afternoon, and the service was warm and friendly from start to finish. Every dish coming out to other tables looked just as incredible as ours… hot, fresh, and full of amazing flavor. I’ve been meaning to try this place for a while as a big fan of Indian food, and it absolutely exceeded expectations. Definitely the best yet!

Great food, nice people. Important note: I ate at this location shortly after it opened with the previous owners, it was awful. Overpriced, flavorless, poorly prepared. I am no expert on Indian food, but I could tell the food was not good. I never planned on returning. HOWEVER, I was told by another restaurant in Cuba NY, that the restaurant changed ownership and it was much better and more reasonable in cost. We tried again after receiving this information and have eaten here somewhat regularly since. The old bad reviews on here are very accurate, but, about the previous ownership. I feel this is important to note for anyone looking at reviews and contemplating eating here.
