Chefs Diana and Nick incorporate their cultural backgrounds into each dish, sharing regional influences and stories behind the flavors. The food was cooked perfectly, with complex spice profiles that were beautifully executed. Their daughters provided attentive and warm service throughout the meal. The price did not reflect the exceptional quality and value of the experience. Thank you for a fantastic evening!

The only thing missing is a liquor license. Other than that, it is perfect.

Don't worry if you don't see the standards – everything we ordered was great.

I didn't know what I missed all the times I had in random places. This was clearly several notches above. The Naan was extremely fresh and tasty and the rice was beyond perfect. I ordered on a whine as it is the next Indian place for me and was so glad they were here.

Excellent vegetarian options try the gobi with all the sides. The pulao, dal, and phulka are a complete meal all by themselves. Attentive service, charming ambiance, and lovely hammered copper decorations are highlights. BE HERE

The menu is rather small but changes frequently. Do not forget to book! A definite must go in Berkeley.

Two downsides: very slow preparation some of us got very hungry by the time the food arrived ; and high prices $14 for four prawns? They tasted great, but still... First one could be mitigated by providing breads at least poppadum . Note they don't yet have a liquor license; blood orange soda was very good but not a complete replacement for wine or beer.

If you are very hungry it may be hard to wait. It can sometimes take 30 minutes or more to get your food, but it’s worth the wait.
