The server Hessain was excellent and very hospitable and looked after us very well. The menu was good and had various options. The food was also good and server was able to describe the dishes to us which helped us decide which is always good with variance of the origin of dishes. The restaurant was busy but service was quick. I would definitely recommend.

Wow..its been one of the best Indian restaurants I've been, if not the best. Fantastic quality, wonderful service, great ambience - just makes it perfect dining experience. We tried Chapli Kabab for the first time, and it was amazing, while everything was awesome. The best part was welcoming and caring staff, who ensured throughout the dining that our visit stays a memorable one. Highly Highly recommended.
