The food, service and ambience - all were great! We had paneer tikka, dal makni, and malai kofta along with the kadai paneer. The quantities were decent and taste was delicious. We ended the meal with kulfi Falooda which was one of the best I have had in Bay Area. Two things that need to be improved: Aam Panna drink had too much sugar and felt artificial. And then Masala tea was lukewarm and taste was not good either.

A good sit-down place in the Tri-Valley area! Their Chef special Tawa Paneer is a must try and their tandoor is very soft and fresh. We asked to make the paneer spicy and it was a 10 on 10! Their Starter Special (Dahi Puri) was a disappointment, but when we shared that with the staff they were very generous enough not to charge us for that dish. We did not try much, but we would love to go back and explore more options! Until then a 3.5 to this new Indian place:)
