First time diners at Kama Bistro and we were very impressed. Very good drinks, tasty samosas and a variety of dishes including chicken, lamb, pork chops all of which were great. Bourbon soaked doughnuts for dessert were a great finish. Looking forward to returning.

We ordered the honey ricotta and Brussels sprouts for sharing. The honey ricotta was exceptional. The Brussels sprouts were very good but different with the gongozal rather than balsamic like most places. The pizzas were awesome as well. We all ordered wine flights which was fun as well as delicious. Our server was great amd really worked well with our group. I highly recommend this place especially if you are looking for something a little bit different. Ours was a girls night out with myself and my daughters.
