    I found this place 2 years ago when in town on vacation. It was so good that I booked a table again while in town with a friend that loves Indian food. Again, an amazing experience. Nassir served us and was fantastic. We had lentils, butter chicken and saag paneer. Highly recommend. Also, the atmosphere is comfortable and quiet so you can have a nice conversation!!

    I love Indian Food and have experienced great restaurants and their offerings in US, UK, Europe and India and have to say this was disappointing. The main dishes were fine but nothing special - in presentation or flavors - they included a Rogan Josh, Butter Chicken for my guest and a mixed vegetable curry. What was totally shocking was ordering papadum and receiving a small plate of what looked like lentil crackers out of a box - Service was good and decor was nice. As I said disappointing.

    Great food! Service was attentive! Prices were very reasonable. They had a sign for valet parking, but there was no valet. Fortunately there was close street parking.

    We were only offered the buffet lunch, but patrons that came in after us were given an option to order off a menu. Buffet was ok, not great.

    This is a great place for conversation and great food. The wait staff senses when you need time to talk and is not at all pushy. Nice music and not too loud. Very reasonable for downtown prices. Highly recommend.

    Great food! Service was a bit slow but they were dealing with a slew of take out orders. Would definitely go again!
