Good food. Nice ambience. Great location. Priced right. GO for it. Yes, first time I found every table having its own tablet PC with the menu etc. You can touch the menu, look at the details and actually order away on the tablet. Great innovation! Only thing they have to make sure is it works properly. I found the tablet... More

Great place... been there multiple times. Very courteous staff. Go for the aloo ke angaare or non veggies try the sheekh kebabs and the rogan josh - superbly made, just the right consistency. We are also great fans of the special kafila daal

I went with two British colleagues for a typical Indian meal following a recommendation by two Indian colleagues. The food was tasty and inexpensive

A commendable attempt for sure! For first time restauranteurs it sure is a fine job. The themed decor, cutlery, uniform of the service staff and the Food is all Good. Besides the fact that I personally find the food a little on the sweeter side, there is little I can complain about. Cheers!!!
