We ordered platha, a salad, curry, and noodles for 3 people and it was the perfect amount of food. The platha with chicken dip was a hit, and the lamb curry was my favorite. We also enjoyed the fresh salad being mixed at our table. The ambience and service was typical for SF, but you are really going and paying for the excellent food.
