    Had an amazing experience, and the staff were very attentive and friendly. We were running around 15 minutes late and were seated almost immediately after arrival. The sides taste fairly more better than the entrees, but no complaints! Thank you for the amazing service and excellent experience!

    Food is very good. Tends not to be crowded when we go on early end, which makes us think the quality of the food may not be widely discovered. We’ve been to about 5 Indian restaurants on the upper east side and none is better and only one possibly is as good, but the service is better at Om. I drink a lot of water and my glass never got near empty!
