They never fail to impress. All our non indian friends this is the first restaurant we recommend for a introduction to indian food. Love the personal touch from the owner Ajay also. Always get an email from his to make sure we had a good experience. Hope he opens many more such exclusive food experiences:-)

Service, in the past, was attentive but not very fast; on this occasion the staff was knowledgeable, informative, attentive, and quick. Our table enjoyed our food (two appetizers and two small specialty entrees) and a bottle of wine for a very reasonable price - and everything was delicious.

Based on the popularity of the restaurant, a bigger and more formal place is needed. I was expecting a Michelin star ambience experience! However the setting was compensated by the taste of the chutneys and spices.

                                                                                                                                                                            Is this helpful?
