Very tasty food with nice presentation. I got the butter chicken with the chili garlic naan and masala fries. The naan was more on the crispier side than doughy but that was a nice twist in my opinion. Great flavor and nice vibe!

Pleasantly surprised. There wasn't a single person in the restaurant at 3:00 pm when we walked in, while the restaurant next door was packed. We came in anyways.. the food was very well prepared and we loved the taste. The chicken dum biriyani is heavenly. Staff was very cordial, and accommodating of any requests. Definitely recommended !

I think the best chapati I have ever had in any indian restaurant. The order was just an order of roti and dal tadka but they gave raita as well as pickle. Very homely made and super affordable.
