The menu mostly consists of different curry specialties and tandoori, which is dishes cooked in a signature clay oven to maintain maximum moisture within the dish.

Quality and taste of food was excellent. Their lunch specials are reasonable value. Was alittle pricey for just a lunch with colleagues. But would definitely return there with family as it's great for special occasion. I enjoyed my lamb vindaloo with chicken pakora, rice, naan. My colleagues all seemed to enjoy their meals also .. but did comment it's rather pricey for lunch. But from my perspective the quality of food seemed to justify the higher costs. I will be back for sure.Is this helpful?

This was hands down the best Indian food I’ve ever had. My family and I were amazed by the quality of service and attentiveness of the staff. Our server (I wish i remembered his name, he has a pony tail) was exceptionally kind to my mother who needed something sweet to calm the spices. He brought her a mango lassi which she loved. I have never been to a restaurant and experienced this level of service. This was our first time here and we’ll definitely be back!Is this helpful?
