We stopped by & was greeted by the friendly owner. We learned that she normally does food by reservation, but when she found out that we were vegan, she whipped up some samosas, 3 different veggie options (some of which the items came from her personal garden), rice, & roti. I love that that the food was fresh & flavorful. I have never had this experience at a normal Indian restaurant. The fact that she came over & actually had a conversation with us & is fellow gardener is also a plus. I usually take pictures of our food, but we were hungry. We also purchased some food from her store, & we will be back ❤️❤️

Horrible food and way too expensive. They did not even put the ac on for dine in when it was extremely hot. The sweet was taken out of the haldiram can and served. We could have bought frozen Indian food and that would taste better. Overall a 0 star for such bad food, don't waste your money here.

Cafe and grocery store with Indian favorites. Menu is posted on Facebook everyday. Every visit feels like a special occasion. For this reason Ria has a dedicated fan base!

This place was amazing and delicious. The hostess/owner/chef was very helpful. You have to make reservations and basically eat what she cooks. We had curry chicken, butter chicken, chick pea masala, garlic naan. Spicy cauliflower, a somosa, and spicy cauliflower. My daughter kept saying, “This is so good.”

This place was SOOO good! You should always call ahead to make a reservation (everything’s handmade, so she might not have enough food). We came without a reservation and she had just enough food for us! Everything was absolutely fantastic, flavorful, and clearly made with care! Ria was so kind, friendly, and passionate about her life. Whenever I come to Columbus next, I’m gonna make sure to go here!

Food and service were outstanding. Can't wait to go back. The selection was tremendous from appetizers through main courses. Didn't have room to try desserts- yet.

Visited for lunch with my team from work. We were a diverse group including several Indian colleagues. When our Indian team mates talked about how good it was you know you're experiencing the true thing. Very good!!

We got butter chicken, cauliflower, and naan. The cauliflower was pretty good, but the butter chicken was okay. It was a big too runny and not creamy enough for my liking. Tip: call ahead to order and just have a list of things you want. They don't have a set menu and is dependent on what other ordered they have already.

She mentioned that the butter chicken was a day old, she was not prepared for customers. We dropped in to check out the place only. She should have told us to come at another time instead she seated us at a dirty table. I told her that we wanted to share 1 plate just to taste. she bought out the food, instead she charged me 12.99 per person, drinks over 2. 00 each. No water, and asked if we wanted vegetables, said yes they were wilted, and not good quality. Bill over 33.00, was very disappointed, and over priced, I felt she was she was not honest and just wanted my money. For 12.99 per person the plates should have been overflowed, they were not.

The owner of the store did not have the jarred grape leaves I needed, but she offered to pick some fresh ones from her garden for me. I returned the next day to find 60 beautiful leaves, for which she only charged me 5 dollars! She was very kind and knowledgeable; she even advised me on how to amend my clay soil so that I can grow my own in the future. Such a lovely person.
