We ended up ordering dishes for persons to share, planning to take the rest home with us, but it was so delicious, we hardly had anything left to...take home. That's not to say the portions were small, as portions were actually gigantic, but it was just so amazing! I ordered Murg Nawabi, the Chef's Special, with prumes and apricots in the sauce, which I never saw in any Indian restaurant before, and it was great. My wife chose chicken Tikka Masala, which I'm aware is not authentic' Indian food, but it was the freshest and best Tikka Masala I've ever tasted. The chicken Korma had fresh pieces of apple and was also very delicious. The only disappointment was the fried Dal we chose as a side dish, which was severy lacking in spices and flavour, but it did not bring the evening's total experience down, still the best Indian restaurant I ever went to. We took the fried dal home, added garlic, chili, pepper and salt, and then it was amazing too.

Die Portionen sind angenehm, nicht zu groß, machen aber auf jeden Fall satt (wir fühlten uns danach angenehm, nicht überfressen). Die Hauptgerichte waren fein abgeschmeckt, der Beilagenreis aber etwas fade. Preislich sind die Gerichte im Mittelfeld (die meisten kosten zwischen 9 und 11€).Das Personal war freundlich und entspannt, allerdings war auch nicht viel los (obwohl Freitag Abend!). Dementsprechend mussten wir auch nicht lange auf unsere Bestellung warten. Die Einrichtung ist angenehm "dezent" für ein indisches Restaurant.
