We had a great time here. The Mango lassi is fantastic! The samosas were perfectly fried. The Madras curry chicken spicy was mouth watering with the garlic naan (extremely fresh and fluffy).
We got the Bhuna Chicken based off the waiter 's recommendation, and it delivered. Not something I would have known to order, but excellent indeed!
Great option either to take out or dine in (although they’re not BYOB like you might expect).
Tasty Indian food , very nice service, indian decor. I loved it.
Mutter paneer , butter chicken are excellent
BUTTER CHICKEN (CHICKEN MAKHANI )Tandoori chicken simmered in tomato sauce , butter and spices is the best!
Homemade mango and pistachio ice creams are fantastic .
Get the Elephant Ride cocktail with gin ! So wonderful.
The butter chicken is amazing.
Butter Chicken is the best!

The food is as expected, drinks subpar, and the service was pretty awful.

Try the dahi kabab. You won't be disappointed. It's my number one crave food these days. - Karen Murtagh
This is very good Indian food. Hema is delightful, and the food is spicy. You can request the spiciness level you prefer. Suggestion: get the Sag Paneer and Bhindi Masala. Love them. - Leah Ray
The food here is fantastic and vegetarian. A solid meal without the fanfare of some places but worth the trip to Devon Avenue. - michael manrique
