Went twice to restaurant. Website says dine in. Both times restaurant had all tables laid out and no one there dining but we couldn't get seated. We booked through their website but they said you had to call for a reservation. But all tables were available. It appears they only do take out. Then post that clearly on your website.

The restaurant in question seems to have received mixed reviews from customers. While some have praised the delicious food and excellent service, others have expressed disappointment with their experiences. Issues such as confusion with reservations, long wait times, inconsistent food quality, limited dessert options, and abrupt closing times have been mentioned. On the positive side, customers have highlighted the tasty biryani, courteous staff, good variety of dishes, and the ability to accommodate large orders quickly. Overall, it appears that the restaurant may have some areas to improve upon, but it still manages to attract patrons with its flavorful food and pleasant atmosphere.
