Had a very bad experience, ordered chicken kadhai and roti and the curry was bad.

You seriously can't make a wrong decision. Everything is delicious. I've ordered from here a few different times both through doordash and over the phone. It's definitely worth going in to pick up. They are super nice and it smells amazing as soon as you walk in. One of my all time favorite places to eat. Will definitely be back.
Ordered for Sunday dinner .Butter chicken was still spicy even after asking for mild. Chicken tikka was horrible,rubbery,dry,only full of spice.Goat curry and naan were ok .

I cannot tell you how much I've relied on this cafe for indian food cravings and orders for catering. Whoever is cooking, please let them know their food is so delicious. I've ordered their goat curry and it's similar to how my mom would cook it and it hit home. It wasnt overpowered with the spices at all. Just recently ordered malai kofta and it was so good. Their fish vindaloo also took me by surprise. I usually avoid buying seafood curries but today i decided to try and it was delicious ?
Randomly stumbled upon this place after the place we had planned to eat at was closed. The food was fantastic. I loved the Goat Curry, it had a nice heat to it. Everything was fresh and the place appeared very clean. If I'm ever in the area again I will definitely come back.

Serves old microwaved food. Samosas and chutneys were horrible. Kadhai paneer gravy was some cheap canned sauce. This place does not know how to cook Indian food.

Deeeeeelicious North Indian buffet! Pretty small storefront restaurant and nothing fancy but who cares when the food is so good? Lots of vegetarian options. The staff were also quite friendly!
