One of the worst things I have ate since the day I am born. I had ordered a portion of chicken chow mein, and they literally gave me just the boiled noodles with salt and chili powder. How is the restaurant still open it’s really a big mystery.

Ordered takeout- A number of the dishes tasted like tomato sauce with hot sauce added. Even the Naan was bland. And everything was really watery/ soupy vs curry- that didn't especially bother and it could be the style, idk. Regardless, flavor- wise I was disappointed and won't order again.

My in-restaurant dining experience was so disappointing. While waiting for my guest to arrive, the owners were playing a repetitive video loop of Wheels on the Bus and other children's songs very loudly. I finally had to ask them to turn it down because it was so loud (and repetitive).My guest arrived and we both placed our orders. Hers was served about 5 minutes later with no mention of my order. When I still hadn't received it after another 10 minutes, I asked the owner and she non-verbally acknowledged me with a head nod. After another 10 minutes I asked again about my order. She was still talking to the same gentleman who appeared to be a friend or family member when I first asked, and she raised 2 fingers and told me it would be coming in 2 minutes. Finally, ANOTHER 10 minutes pass and she brings my order (but not my naan). I asked her why it took so long, that my guest was waiting to eat their meal which was now cold, until I received mine. The owner told me that the other man came in and was starving and so they put his order ahead of mine. My guest and I were utterly appalled. Needless to say, we did not tip, and will not be back. There are several other excellent choices for Indian food in the area and in Grand Rapids.

We got the chicken chili mono, goat vinadaloo, garlic naan, and chicken tikka. All were good, but the momo was outstanding. The vindaloo was good, but had several pieces of bone in it, so just be aware of that. The chicken tikka had excellent flavor; you got a nice smoky flavor, but it was really quite dry which I didn't mind, but also be aware of that. The naan was very good but you didn't get much of it.

We were there for lunch on a Wednesday, and it was uncrowded. Seriously!?? The venue has easy parking, it's very clean and has a lot of charm - and the food was delicious! This place should be very very crowded. I got a chicken Thali, it was beautiful and absolutely delicious, only complaint was I asked for medium spice, and there was zero spice, lots of flavor but no heat - but western Michigan ... I'm sure lots of people think a sprinkle of black pepper = spice, so if you want the real deal you might need to be more convincing than I was.

We had both Peshawari Naan and Onion Kulcha which were both excellent!As an appetizer we had Chicken Momo (steamed) which was good and the spicy sauce was flavorful. I ordered the Goat Fried rice with a medium spice level but it came out with no spiciness at all. The server provided me a side dish of spice when I mentioned this. The goat meat was dry and chewy, so definitely a miss on this for dinner. Other dishes we ordered were mutton biryani which tasted good and chicken thukpa which was very good. Service was a bit slow but kind.

Thali set was a joke. Nothing was good, except the paint of wall and some pictures. Very bad vegetable and chicken. Rice was also not good quality.

Most of the food items were not available. We ordered veg shezwan noodles, and those were pathetic. We did not like the taste. The smell was weird, too. Waste of money n mood. I'm highly disappointed.

We stopped in here for lunch. My wife had the Chicken Biryani. The portion size was large, the chicken was dry, and the taste was on the spicy side. I had the Chicken Chowmein. Again a large portion size but the taste wasn't anything special. The Garlic Naan was very good and I would recommend this. The woman who served us was very nice.

The food was very good! We ordered a lot and everything came out quickly and was very tasty. Paneer tikka masala, samosas, Nepal tea, mango lasee, and goat sakwa!
