    Amazing food and environment. Each of the items on the menu is very unique while not letting you forget the taste that you would usually get in India. We loved the ambience and the overall experience. Definitely try it out if you are in Dubai.

    Very small portion sizes, absolutely no value for money. Food didn't taste good AT all. Very disappointing. The staff and service was the only saving grace.

    Well there was no masala in most of the dishes. They have succeeded in destroying Indian food. Would not recommend any of the dishes expect for the lamb keema and tandor roti. Restaurant was cold and the layout with huge pillars was wrong. Lighting was is basic spotlights. The waiting staff were hard working. The restaurant menu has style but its has no substance. It failed to deliver its menu expectations.
