    We really enjoyed the food. Appetizers were good, main course was very good. Service was good. Drinks were a miss, we didn’t enjoy what we ordered for drinks. We will definitely be coming back for food though!

    The restaurant in general was lovely. The food was good and the people who work there were very nice. I think there was a service issue on the day we were there as they gave us someone else's naan, were pretty slow on getting drinks and extremely slow with the check and didn't clear off any of the tables from people who left, so by the time we left there were about 7 tables just filled with dishes, scraps and trash and maybe 5 tables with people. Like I said, I assume they had a shortage of servers, so I get it. It happens.

    Great food, wonderful service. Traditional Indian as well as more creative dishes. Cocktails and mocktails were equally impressive. You won't regret choosing this restaurant

    Very happy to discover this new restaurant near PPAC for our pre-show meals. Food was excellent and flavorful with friendly staff happy to customize orders to meet your requirements. Some interesting Asian fusion options on the menu as well as more traditional Indian cuisine.

    The best Indian food in the city. Brand new restaurant in downtown that opened two weeks ago. Food was tasty and prompt. The naan was delicious as well as the butter paneer. Highly recommend!
