Found that the servers while attentive were not specially helpful with food explanation, the servings are large. Food was good and there is plenty to choose from. I found the food to have no salt at all.

I had a delicious celebratory meal here. The palak paneer was outstanding. All food and drinks were tasty. There was a lovely live singer but the mic was a little too loud at times but generally noise level was okay.

The food was decent, but not stellar. The cocktails looked better in comparison, and definitely really good mango lassis!

Very friendly service and they helped us select food that would not be too much for two people. The decor was clean with white linens and felt inviting and polished. The food was flavorful and satisfying.
