Our dinner was delicious, but what really made our evening exceptional was our server, Aiden. He remembered our names, as well as details about each of us. He seemed genuinely interested in us and his recommendations for menu items were spot on. His personal attention made our dining experience memorable. We'll be recommending this restaurant to our friends. Thank you for a great evening, Aiden!

the food is extremely good. the service is fast and servers are so kind. They made my daughter like butter chicken :). The place is also clean. as they took over the restaurant from the prior owners, the ambiance is heavy and inside is too dark. They may want to change it. But we will go there and order home again for sure

All good except we reserved a table with chairs and they still too is to a booth. Waitresses checked in too many times but didn’t notice we didn’t have water. I didn’t get a menu. Food was great! We were celebrating a birthday but they didn’t offer any birthday recognition.
