As of date of posting the restaurant was only open for take out so we found a few tables by the side and ate there. It took a while for the food to be prepared, more than I had anticipated. However, the food was really good and we all enjoyed it, so well worth the wait. The naan was good sized. The entrees come with a large serving of rice. The paneer was soft and fresh. Overall, good meal.

I went for the buffet, and they offered a lovely selection of hot, fresh dishes. The naan was incredibly light and delicious.

When I went to pick up my food I was advised that the tandoori chicken kabob I ordered is not apart of the deal. So I didn’t understand why it’s an option on the choices online then. I was told I had to “pick a curry”. My fiancé doesn’t eat curry. I asked if there was something similar to the tandoori chicken that I could choose instead that is apart of the deal and was told no. I was only allowed to pick from curries. I then offered to pay the difference so I could get what I actually ordered. I was charged $7 more so I could get the tandoori chicken. On top of the $27 I had already paid for the “family meal deal”. I will not be back.

Every dish is consistently great. Uniquely spiced dishes, abundant rice. Just watch your portions or your waistline might suffer ???? Addictive. read more Every dish is consistently great.

However the food was too oily and worst thing is in thecurry accidentally some stone came into my mouth when I took out it was piece of glass!! Vety disappointed the food quality andthe cleanliness.
