This was the best restaurant experience I have ever had. The waiters were very friendly and attentive. Our order arrived on time, and most importantly, the dishes were delicious. I visited the place with my wife, and she was very pleased. As they say, a happy wife equals a happy life.

The food and drinks here are quite average. We got chicken lollipops and pav bhaji along with a mimosa and jaljeera. The drinks were good however the pav with the pav bhaji is sweeter. A decent place with good vibes with scope for improvement on the flavor of the food.

I visited this restaurant for a dinner during my stay in San Diego, we didn't have any wait times luckily as it was quite late when we got in. The ambience was decent and so was the service. Now coming to the food itself, I felt the menu was quite overpriced for the items they did offer. I got the tandoori paneer for appetizers and that was pretty good, for main course I got the chicken kathi roll with chips and it didn't quite meet my expectations, the portion was filling for sure and it was quite hot and spicy but it missed essential flavors you expect in a kathi roll.

Really good food, kind servers, good vibes. While great quality, the food portions are kind of small for the price.

Food was mediocre at best, portions extremely small, and prices are super, super inflated. But most disappointing of all was the lackluster service. Orders were delayed by an hour. Empty apologies, no offer of anything to make up for wasted time (not that I would have wanted any favors from this establishment). Also tacky was the fact that a gratuity of 18% was added automatically for a party of four. Don't waste your precious dollars on this nonsense. Far better places to spend your money and time.

Delicious food, amazing service and great ambiance. Masala peanuts and the Indian beer reminded us of being in India and the interior with Bollywood pictures just took us back in time. Amazing vibe friendly staff. We keep going back for more because the food is just great and it's a great place to hangout with friends and family. A bar right outside provides additional drink options.We tried Mocktails likeMasala NimbuLitchi fizzAlso tried chicken pizza with the chicken in the crust itself which was so loaded and delicious. Vegetarian thali was superb and the Malai paneer sizzler was so delicious!Will be definitely be back for more!https://linktr.ee/socal_tasting
