    We went with someone’s reference and it was a good experience. Good food and variety of items. We had tandoori paneer, gobi manchurian, idali , dosa , daal, kadai paneer and some breads. Everything tasted so good.

    Forgot 1 item from the order that was brought at the end like a dessert. The owner/manager at the front was weird to greet somehow lol. He was looking clueless when we entered the restaurant as if he wasn't expecting people at dinner time.

    Very good food with Jain options. Service was friendly, clumsy at times. Food was forgotten and had to be removed from the bill. No big deal. Overall, a good experience. But pricey, if I’m being honest. The quality is there, I just think that a vegetarian dinner for two skinny people should cost less than $100. Oh well.
