    Excellent food and service! Three of us and we tried a variety of small plates and entrees. Every dish was deliciously prepared. Our new 3rd Ward favorite!

    An older couple was leaving as we were entering and they loudly exclaimed to each other as they were walking out “that was without a doubt the best meal i’ve had in my entire life”. They were underselling how amazing the food was and with such an immaculate atmosphere and attentive service it made it even more special.

    My girlfriend and I were treated like royalty. Service was phenomenal and food was great. The menu had a tasteful variety and fusions of American and Indian food and the staff was more than willing to accommodate and answer any questions we had.

    I could have asked for more during our 9yr anniversary celebration. The atmosphere was somewhat dark and romantic. Our server Anastasia was cheerful, knowledgeable and clearly experienced. My wife and I chose the butter chicken and salmon curry among other things. Delicious! Oh and the Dal Makhani was yummy. Will be coming back for more.

    Food was very good, loved all of it except for the lamb tarts. Ordered 3 small plates/appetizers and a dessert which was more than enough for 2 people. I hate coffee but loved the golden coffee cocktail

    Food and ambiance outstanding as usual. Unfortunately my out of town guests were a little difficult. Apologies to our server. Still my favorite place to take friends.
