Food tastes just average and the portions are not that good. Not a place I would visit again. By the way they charge a service fee when paying by credit card.

Delicious food and they have so many vegetarian options! Great service and nice atmosphere. We will definitely be returning. Wish I would have taken pictures of the food but no time for pictures when the food is this good!

Awesome food and service. We tried Chole bhature, goat curry and naan. Everything was tasty and the quantity was good too. One of the cleanest Indian restaurants around.

Food is below average. And the quality is too little. Ordered pani puri and the stuffing was barely sufficient to eat the dish. Gobi Manchuri was soggy and vinegary. And only 7 pieces were served. Whereas chilli paneer was surprisingly served with substantial sauce quantity but the had rotten dairy taste. And didn’t taste good. Very subpar preparation. The Dahi batata sev puri special was really good.

Second time here . Enjoyed the food throughly. My friend ordered the pakoras which were great. Really like this place portion sizes are big unlike most Indian places. Do find service a bit slow here but the food is always great

5 star for the service. The servers were knowledgeable and polite. Liked the ambiance and the white table cloths on the tables, very crisp and clean and gives a formal,polished vibe and good enough for a special Occasion dining. 5 star for the price and the food quality as well as quantity. It met my expectations! Now when it comes to food I think they did a good job. I only ordered vegetarian dishes ( chole bhature, veg Manchurian, butter naan and laccha paratha) and they all were fresh. The chole was delicious and non spicy ( as I asked) for the kids. The veg Manchurian balls were good, however the gravy could have been more flavorful with ginger garlic and seasoning. To me it was more soup Like than what I like. The bhature could be better with natural fermentation than the baking soda one but i think they probably do that to avoid food wastage. Would love to get yoghurt fermented bhature over the baking soda one. Overall I think they do a good job in serving high quality food with fresh ingredients and good taste. I will come back to try non-vegetarian dishes next time and update my review.

Malai chicken tikka was dry and flavorless. Chicken tikka masala gravy was really bad too. No flavor just cream and some coloring. Chicken pieces in the gravy were like just uncooked chunks of chicken. Chowmein was okay just too oily. Dahi batata puri was good. Service was good. Ambiance is nice. It's really close to our house so we were hoping it would be good but we're really disappointed. Tried it three times now and decided we're not going there anymore.

Great food and service. We weren't too adventurous, but the standards of chili chicken, chicken tikka masala and garlic naan were as good as we've had anywhere.

Went here for dinner. Really enjoyed the food here! It was spicy, tasty and not bland which I loved. They give good quantity which is a plus. Loved loved loved Chole bhature, don’t miss it for the world! Kulche were good too. Appetisers took time to arrive which was a bummer. Soya kebab was soft and not crispy and masaaledaar so didn’t like it. For desserts, I had moong dal halwa and gulab jamun and both were yum!!! If it’s just 2 people, 1 plate of moong dal halwa is sufficient. Overall, loved the food! Must try!
