Fabulous decor for an Indian restaurant on the Pioneer Blvd strip. Isaac was our server and he was simply fantastic. Energetic, full of information and lively. The owners were in the restaurant but completely missing. No greetings, did not check in to see how the food was etc. If it was bustling, I would understand. Besides us, table of 3, there was another table with 3 too. Though it was not on menu, I asked for Dirty Mango Lassi (Mango Lassi with Rum and other ingredients). The bartender or the owner never made any attempt to Google the cocktail recipe. Instead, they poured a single shot of rum in a glass of extremely thick mango lassi. It would have taken them 2 minutes to look up the recipe. Otherwise, the food was good. The best dish was Apollo Fish and the Okra Fry. In most places, Okra is oily or mushy, this was neither. Spiced right and perfect!

The prices went way up from the last time we went. The food was great but the service was not great. The cocktails tasted watered down. We were given our check before they asked us if we wanted dessert.

Outstanding! My husband and I had lunch yesterday at about 12:30PM. There were few diners, but within half an hour the restaurant was almost full. Quality ingredients and great service by Taylor. There is ample parking in the city lot in back. We had the Chicken Tikka Trio, Cauliflower (loved the sauces), the Butter Chicken Sandwich and the Spicy Paneer Flatbread - all delicious.

Food quality and portions were great. Fish fry app, bhindi, smoked eggplant, spicy paneer flatbread pizza were more than enough for three people. I didn't like that they turned on music ~19:00 and the volume seemed to increase 20:00; just had to shout to talk to each other and took away from the atmosphere

Absolutely loved this place! The food and ambience are incredible. We ordered a few of their naans (garlic, garlic chili, and the cheese + spices one), the saag paneer, the chole, chicken tikka, crispy cauliflower, and masala fries. Not a single crumb was leftover. Started thinking about the next time I’d be able to come back as soon as we left the restaurant. The inside is decorated beautifully and the large glass doors leading to the patio bring in so much natural light. They have a decent selection of alcohol and beer as well- a couple of people in our party ordered mimosas and they were delicious!
