What our guests are saying

Our waitress Maria was patient and phenomenal. Food was beyond amazing. Will most definitely be returning. I have a new favorite: buttered chicken and Naan.

Amber O.

We had the tandoor chicken and goat curry for entrees. The chicken 555 and samosas for appetizers. Everything was delicious and the service was perfect. We will definitely be going back.

Best food served here.I visit very often like twice a week. Biryani’s are their big plus especially the Goat biryani.It’s a five star restaurant me. Chicken hot and sour is also a must try.
