It was good Indian food. Not the best, but good. Service was good, but they brought one of the wrong dishes( chicken not veggie)and when brought up they apologized and made the right one for us. They didn’t comp the dish they got wrong, which would have been nice, but certainly unnecessary. Attire is a little on the fancier side for Indian, mostly collared shirts and jackets for men. Recommend you order extra rice. Samosa was quite good.

This was our first time at this restaurant but definitely won’t be our last. We’ve eaten at a good number of Indian restaurants, and this one is amongst the vey best. I typically get Baigan Bhartha (baked and mashed eggplant with spices) as my go-to dish. This was the best I have ever had. My wife had the fish and chips. It was also outstanding with a wonderful combination of spices both on the fries and in the fish batter. This is a restaurant that won’t disappoint, and should be visited if you are in the area.
