Highly recommend the vegetable korma, lamb curry, and naan bread. The service is great, I'm a regular so they always give me free drinks! Love this buffet! By far the best Indian restaurant in Ventura.

Wow! This restaurant is absoltey awesome! I love Indian food, so when my husband and I found this place, we definitely had to stop in and try it. What a great decision we made!

I have been here several times, and it is consistently fantastic. The service, quality and taste are consistently top notch. I would recommend this restaurant for a quick lunch, or even a special evening out. A very flexible restaurant that will never disappoint.
