it's been a couple years since I went to this restaurant and the food was not as good as it was before. the chicken tikka masala had this weird flavor like they use powdered milk or powdered cream or something and it tasted kind of cheesy. the tomato that they used for it also seems like it's canned and not fresh and I did not taste any fresh tomatoes in it. I make chicken tikka masala myself at home and my version tastes a thousand times better than this restaurant's version and only cost a fraction of the price. the portions of spices they used in the tikka masala was not correct and it was also not cooked long enough to allow the spices to get into the sauce. the salmon tandoori was overdone. it was all black on the outside when they delivered it. aside from that the inside was really dry and the fish was not fresh. the onions had the right flavoring but they were missing the garam masala sauce that goes over the actual fish so the whole meal was kind of dry. the lamb chops was actually done okay even though it was also overdone and black on the outside. they had onions and lemon at the bottom for favoring. the biryani rice was cooked to the right consistency but it was pretty plain to me. the only dressing they did with it was putting a few peas on the top. usually at other restaurants they spice up their biryani rice and it tastes a lot better. I'm just glad they at least cook the rice to the right consistency. the papadum was actually done okay. you can't really go wrong with papadum. although the waiter did forget about my second order of papadum but it was okay because they let us have it for free. I also drank a mango drink but I feel like they added some extra stuff into it because it was really thick and tasted kind of chalky, they put some kind of filler in it in order to give it more volume. I do not recommend the drink. I didn't really have any of the naan but judging by the fact that my family did not want to take it home I feel like it was not very good. the consistency of the naan was anywhere from thin to thick. it reminded me more of a pizza crust than naan. the service was pretty good though the waiters kept asking us if we needed anything and asking us how we were. there was no polite way of communicating to them the quality of the food while we're eating there, less chance of them messing with our food. the restaurant is kind of empty at the moment so you can probably find seats but most people order out, I think my family counted about 30 people getting take out while we ate there.

I do apologize I forgot the name of all these delicious dishes. If you are in the area it is a must try. The food was so taste and the service was amazing. The worker was alone and he still managed to get all our dishes out in a timely manner. I will most definitely come back to this restaurant when we are in the area.

Delicious, authentic Indian food- all four in our party got something different. My medium-spiced lamb curry was awesome, though the Chana masala may have been over-spiced for the one in our party also ordering medium. We also tried Lamb tikka masala and Baigon Bharta, both mild. The rice and garlic naan were not included, but both delicious! Rice was needed for us eating the spicier meals. Very pleased and would highly recommend.

Ordered chicken and lamb Biryani, both tastes like rice mixed with chicken/lamb curry. It's no good, also we found this green pepper with label on it.

Ten stars. Seriously. Tandoori mixed platter (no salmon for me). Also chili chicken (requested face-melting-hot and they obliged) The struggle here is avoiding hyperbole while remaining accurate; Ingredient quality, quantity, recipe, cooking, and presentation were literally perfect. Best meal I can remember, possibly ever. Only complaint is it will haunt my dreams. Was looking forward to returning before I even left. And yes service was tip top. None of this seems like adequate praise either. Obviously a must-try. 👏👏

Food was delicious! The people coming in for pick up orders was nonstop, which if you're sitting by the door is a constant breeze but I didn't care because the food was too fast. We had the Himalayan Thali for 2, it was great. The portions were good, maybe even for 3 people. It was my first time tonight and I will defiycome back.

This is one of my favorite restaurants in the city. The food is always amazing and the staff is super nice! Dine in or take out it's always amazing. I get the lamb korma or the malai kofta but I have yet to try something I didn't love!
