" Our visit was okay but room for improvement. The food was decent, but lacked the proper punch of spices I look for in Indian cuisine. Customer service was commendable, but I may not be rushing back anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant has gone downhill since my last visit. I ordered the tikka masala and it tasted like it came from a can. Disappointing because this was once my favorite Indian food place. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience was moderately good. I enjoyed the chicken korma but found it rather oily. The ambiance was welcoming, but I did expect more in terms of authentic taste. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love their chicken tikka! It's spicy, flavorful, and perfect. Pair it with garlic naan for the best experience. The atmosphere is slightly casual but cozy. " (*Curated Review*)

" So many options! I loved my paneer butter masala and the garlic naan was to die for. The ambiance was casual and relaxed which makes it perfect for an after-work dinner with friends. " (*Curated Review*)

Archived Reviews (139)

" I had high hopes, but the butter chicken fell short. It wasn't flavorful and felt more like a creamy soup rather than a curry. The service was quick which was a plus. " (*Curated Review*)

" The place is worth the hype! The curry had rich flavors, and the desserts were delightful. The staff seemed overworked but managed well under pressure. " (*Curated Review*)
