"Hands down the best place on the Westside, and not just because it’s the only one! Ha ha. From the moment we looped around their one way parking lot to the moment we devoured dessert, everything was spectacular. We were seated right away, with only a few tables left on a Thursday night. After seated with waters ready, we got the Indian version of chips and salsa, papadums and chutney. The chutney is something I wish I had bottled and on hand for everything. We ended up getting a second side of the chutney for our chicken pakora, which was crispy yet housed the most succulent chicken I’ve had in a while. Dinner was a Lamb and Chicken Combo Platter with an accompaniment of shrimp biryani. The basmati was fantastic and flavorful and the sides on the platter were just as delicious as the moist lamb and the yummy grilled chicken legs. Dessert was similar to rice pudding, but the saffron just boosted the whole flavor profile and kept it authentically Indian. Will definitely return to this lighthearted, charming, and welcome restaurant in Rio Rancho."
