My husband and I have eaten many meals at this restaurant, and the food and customer service are always consistent and excellent. Our typical dishes include vegetable samosas, tandoori assorted appetizers, tomato soup, chicken tikka masala, and assorted naan basket. It is the best tikka masala anywhere! Thanks again for a wonderful meal!

The food was great and it didn't take long at all. The table was ready for us when we got there. We walked right in and sat down. The music was great and we got a free mothers day Mimosa.
