What our guests are saying
Absolutely delicious! We ordered five menu items to split, all as vegan and 10/10 would get each one again 🤩 Our server was Anthony, he was friendly, service was quick, and our water was always filled. We will definitely come back!

Omgoodness this is best Indian food I've ever had. I tried the sampler platter with the appetizer and dessert. So much flavor. Perfectly portion. Fernandez was a fantastic server who took time to explain each dish. I'll definitely be back.
