We had a marvelous meal here and enjoyed ourselves tremendously. A really nice place to dine! I also like that I could connect with them on What's App. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. The service was exemplary. The food was delicious. All boxes checked. If I ever come back this way, it'll be a repeat!

Get the garlic naan!! It was so good we ordered more to go. The tandoori isn’t really a tandoori but still good. The keema was amazing. I highly recommend it. The saag or palak was disappointing not enough spices. The chai was really good and their kulfi was amazing. I loved the coconut and my partner loved the mango one. I recommend checking this place out! I would def go again!

Amazing restaurant. We would highly recommend a meal here. The staff were so friendly and helpful and kind. It was my birthday and they all came out to wish me a happy birthday. Such attention to detail. We were made to feel very welcome and the service was impeccable.
I would recommend booking a table if you can.

Highly unique well crafted Indian dishes. Aromatic and delicate balance in each dish. Highly recommend especially garlic naan and Kashmiri pilau. Inviting friendly staff and comfortable restaurant.

I wasn't really expecting much from this curry house but was pleasantly surprised. The food was really great. Fresh flavours and plenty of spice. The meat was moist and plentiful. Service was excellent and the staff were really helpful. It's was so good, we went back twice in a week!
It's also the only restaurant I've ever been to with casters on the chairs. You could whizz around with ease!

Being the second time we've been here, they continue to prioritize excellence in the quality of the options. We ordered chicken and prawn korma and prawn masala and all three dishes were excellent. The tray with the sauces and naan bread was divine. An experience to repeat, without a doubt! Quality…

My friend and I just dropped in without reservation and the staff were kind enough to squeeze us in. The service was impeccable, the food was out of this world. Prawn puri and onion bhaji starter with popodoms and pickle platter… delicious. Lamb saag with mushroom rice and Punjabi veg curry with pe…

Food was extremely delicious, staff was very nice and gave us recommendations for vegan options. Even though we came in late at around 10pm and they close at 11pm, they took their time for us. I recommend you go eat there. There was a very comfortable vibe. It’s also close to the beach for a walk …

We came to the restaurant in a group of 6 with family and we loved the experience. We asked for different things with help and various recommendations from the owner, we shared both the dishes as naan and rice and worked very well. Spectacular food and a lot of sympathy and kindness from the owners…

Incredible experience! We came in without a reservation and they were completely booked, but communicated with us on times and when we had to be out and gave us a table anyways! The food was absolutely delicious and so so flavorful. All the waiters/waitresses were extremely attentive and the “boss …
