Wonderful experience. My third time there and gets better every time! Service, food, ambience, creativity of the serving experience - and what I believe is the best Indian food in the city. It's nice to enjoy this wonderful cuisine which the restaurant clearly showcases with a lot of passion. Already looking forward to our next visit!

Absolutely outstanding dinner! The favours and unique presentation were a marvel for the eyes and taste buds. We started with the Chaat - not to be missed and the presentation was a show in and of itself - the Kulcha Tacos and Chai & Cutlet, both also very delicious. Next was the Makhan Chicken Tikka and Goan Prawn Curry. The curry comes with rice and we added garlic naan - you want to ensure you don't leave any of the sauce behind! The food is very favourful but can tend to the spicy side (which we enjoy) - rely on your server's recommendations. There are 2 dining areas - we were in the smaller one so the noise level was captured between the walls a little bit more but not bad at all. The entrance to the restaurant is not off the street - you have to go through the lobby of the building. We almost walked into the kitchen. Highly recommend and we'll ge going back for sure!

Great meal and excellent service. Haven’t been here in 5 years and had my aunts 70th birthday. Everyone loved the food, the service was exceptional and they go all out with their drink and dessert presentation. Will definitely go back again when I have a craving for Indian food
