    The food was delicious and fresh, which is what I look for in a good quality Indian restaurant. The owner was kind and attentive. I will definitely be back.

    I've been going to this restaurant for many years, and even after trying different Indian Food establishments in other towns, while traveling etc., this place is still my favorite! My go-to order is Malai Kofta (vegetarian dish), but for anyone who is new to Indian food, I always suggest Butter Chicken dish. Their samosas and cheese naan are exceptionally tasty. Dine-in, take-out, Online ordering, and delivery available.

    If you're in the area and are craving Indian food, COME HERE!! We were visiting from SoCal, which has a lot of amazing Indian spots, but I'd say that this restaurant had some of the best Indian food I've had. My husband and I ordered butter chicken, chicken tikka masala, and garlic naan to share and everything was *chefs kiss*. The food overall was so comforting!! I appreciate how you can customize the spice level you want here--we opted for spicy for both the butter chicken and chicken tikka masala, and let me tell you, it was SPICY!! We really enjoyed the level of spiciness, but both my husband and I have a pretty high spice tolerance, so that's something to keep in mind. One thing I also liked is that the food didn't seem super oily or greasy, which I feel like happens a lot with South Asian food. Portion sizes and prices here are pretty average. The store itself is pretty casual, but has a cozy, homey vibe to it. The server was on the more quiet side, which made him a little difficult to understand, but he was honestly so sweet and kind and reminded me of my own grandpa, which made him endearing (please be patient and kind with him)! The store is located in a large plaza and we had no problems finding parking on a Sunday night.
