There are definitely vegan options, and many of these dishes can be prepared without dairy products. However, this is not a vegan restaurant and you need to communicate very clearly what you want.

We came for lunch on Monday and unfortunately, the business seemed slow – we were the only ones there. Surprisingly, the service in the dining room was not very speedy, but we weren't in a rush (the kitchen was quick). The Shahi korma had a subtly sweet flavor and the lamb korma was nutty and creamy, though I wish the lamb had been more tender. The aroma of the freshly made Naan bread was divine – I wanted to wrap myself up in it like a blanket. The portions were very generous (the bowls in my photos were quite deep). The herb-filled samosas had a nice kick – the pastry was crispy and flaky while the filling was moist. I also appreciated the unique decor, although it seemed a bit worn-down. The bathroom definitely needs updating. Despite these small issues, I would still return. I hope this restaurant can survive the pandemic, as the food is truly fantastic.

All of the dishes were delicious. The Vindaloo had the perfect level of spice - not overwhelmingly hot, but just right. The flavors were amazing! I am looking forward to returning to this restaurant soon.

Slightly on the pricey side. Will visit again. Vegetarian options: Menu has several options for vegetarians. They prepare the food spicy or mild to your taste.
