    This was the second time we ate here this week. It was wonderful. The food was great. The service was excellent. Dipak was our server, and he went above and beyond consistently. The first time we went this week, it was with my mother-in-law. She had never been to an Indian restaurant. The owner, Raj, went out of his way to give her a taste of the dishes to make sure she knew what to order. He had us try a few things and made the experience exceptional - we felt like we were in his kitchen. This food is consistently good and we will be back. We love supporting this group before and after the hurricane. Thank you!
