"They gave me wet and soggy papads. Then they brought food but did not bring or give me any dinner plate. Had to ask the waiter for plate. He ignored. Asked few times finally got a plate. By this time my food is already cold. Ordered vindaloo which was just tomoto sauce cooked with chilli sauce with overcooked chicken thigh meat- (paid for chicken breast)Then the roti they brought was not even cooked and had thick uncooked dough so sent back. Ordered garlic naan. Surprisingly it was good. Ordered another one. The waiter didnt order so had to ask another waiter after 10 mins to bring my naan. Still no naan in next 10 mins. Asked 3rd waiter finally he ordered it and brought after 5 mins. Pathetic experience overall. Please never go to this place."

I enjoy exploring new dining spots, but I always find myself returning to this restaurant. The food is scrumptious, and the staff is incredibly friendly and attentive. I highly recommend this place! View menu

The food at this restaurant is amazing. There are many South Asian customers, which makes me feel like it's authentic. My favorite dish was the vegetable pakoras, and all the curries were delicious and unique in flavor. The mango lassi was a bit expensive for the portion size.

We recently moved to the area and were searching for a restaurant that serves delicious Dosa. We were very pleased with the food we had. The dosas were very tasty and made fresh. We were a bit surprised to see that this place only has a 3.9 rating, but we suspect it might be because of the ambiance. However, we highly recommend the food here. Overall, we give the food a rating of 5 out of 5.

I have ordered from this restaurant many times before, but this was the first time I dined in. I was impressed by the amazing quality of the food. From the spicy Hyderabad dosa to the onion and chilly uttapam, and from the idli to the North Indian Malai kofta, tandoori chicken, and Indo-Chinese dishes, everything had great consistency and delicious taste. I would highly recommend this restaurant at any time of the day, and I hope they continue to maintain their excellent flavors! View menu

Red alert ?. Don't recommend at all. Abusive and terrible customer service. Last incidence experience was terrible to my kids and us. A lady worker asking my minor children's if I'm their parent or not. Similar experiences was reported by some of my known Indian friends. These kind of bad experience seems happening lately and mostly by the only lady worker. Otherwise, I've been frequently going here with my family had good experiences. After this latest abuse experience, not only i'll not be going there again but let others not to have such abusive experiences. As an Indian our family values is of utmost importance to us.

Went in for dinner with a friend who had never been. I've had their food before, which was good, but never dined in.I ordered Masala Chai tea, butter chicken and garlic Naan, rice. My friend also ordered Masala Chai tea. She opted for the trio chicken plate with was a combination of Malai, hariyali and chicken tikka kebob.The service was good throughout our dinner. I liked the Masala Chai tea and my butter chicken and Naan was the best!My friend really enjoyed what she ordered.All the spices and flavors really blended so well and was like heaven in my mouth!Give these guys a try. I'd like to go back and try some of their other dishes.Great service, good food, and nice dining room.
