    Top of the line preparation of what we know as Indian (but actually Afghan, Pakistani with a little Persian). Careful, thoughtful spicing and choice of ingredients. This will become your go-to choice for cuisine representing that part of the world.

    The food at Grand Trunk Road was delicious. Waiter recommended the best dishes and he was not wrong (lamb, eggplant, half chicken) but the ambiance was weak. We were the only people in the restaurant on Friday night at 7, so it felt a little too quiet. But overall, the food was delicious. Would probably order out from here next time.

    We were the only ones in this beautiful spot. Food was mediocre and too spicy hot even though we specified mild.

    A fabulous night out! Came in from out of town to try this neighborhood gem! Beautifully decorated. The best ambience for a nice dinner with friends and family. Would make a great date restaurant as well! The menu is beautiful. Hard to choose. We selected three appetizers: shahi kachori, aloo Tikka and Chapli kabob. All three were so scrumptious! Beautiful presentation! Almost too beautiful to eat. The seasoning hits the spot. Every bite is so flavorful! We had seekh kabob, behari kabob and achari chicken for dinner with naan. I’m telling you, you have to try this place. The flavors linger in your mouth. I want to go back and try more dishes.

    First time here. I like Indian food; my husband didn’t think he did. Lovely place. Owner who seated us and took our order couldn’t have been nicer. We loved our food. Had a chicken breast dish, the king crab dish and naan bread. All were delicious. Reasonably priced. Also enjoyed the white wine from Willamette Valley and my husband liked his beer. Would definitely recommend and will be back soon.

    From the beautiful dining room, to the fun mixology, to the great food and the wonderful owner everything was perfect. We started with two fun cocktails 1) Bollywood G&T and the 2) Naked and Famous in Bombay. Great taste, not too sweet and very refreshing on a horribly hot day. For a starter we had the mushroom and cheese naan. It was served with a tomato jam/relish. Very satisfying. We asked our waiter Chris to help us on the quantities of food to order and we took his directions. We ordered the Nehari (braised beef, fennel, Kashmiri chili, ginger powder) and an order of Piyazi Kulcha (Onion, cilantro, butter), Goat Biryani (saffron, whole spices, yogurt, tomatoes and Mint Boondi Raita (Mint, boondi, yogurt, chaat masala, black salt). It was a perfect dinner. The biryani was steamed in a bowl covered with a bread crust. When you were ready, you cut the top off and stirred all of the ingredients together. Incredibly good. Dinner with 2 cocktails and and a good bottle of Indian Chenin Blanc including tip $138. As is typical with most new restaurants they have had their struggles in the first 6 months. They were initially SLAMMED with new customers that were disappointed with the service (never the food). The fact is they were overwhelmed. GREAT NEWS - They are not overwhelmed now and deserve your patronage.
