    Good food (and a lot of it) but extremely slow service. We sat for our 7:30 reservation, then it took an hour for us to get even our drink order taken and the salad from a pre fixed menu.

    TERRIBLE. Server constantly forgot about us. The other servers asked everyone what spice level they wanted but ours never asked. Our food came out so mild and bland it was disgusting. I will never be back. This is the first bad review I've ever written after going to thousands of restaurants. Yes, it was that bad.

    The food was amazing and plentiful. We got great recommendations on the menu from our server and they did not disappoint. The tables are very small for the about of food they bring, but we made it work. Be prepared for leftovers.. Overall, a great date night.

    One of the serves smelled really bad, would get a big BO smell when he passed by each time. The tandoor chicken was 🔥. Lamb was over cooked a bit. Chicken tiki masala was alright. Cool ambiance and the staff was really nice.

    The chicken in the Chicken Tikki Masala was overcooked, so it was a bit tough and chewy. The Mango Cheesecake is good, but definitely not worth the price of $14, that is crazy actually. There was also too much graham cracker crust, so some bites were a bit dry. Lamb Biryani was very good. Tables are probably a bit too small, should look into getting bigger tables so as not to overcrowd the table when the food arrives. There should also not be as many tables in the main dining room upstairs, everyone is on top of each other, feels less personal.

    Came for restaurant week menu! There was about a 45 minute wait when we arrived for our reservation. Other than that, everything was great! Wonderful host and servers. The food was delicious too. My favorite was the lamb and the mango cheesecake.

    The food was oh so immaculate, like absolutely decadent and would eat there again. The space was quaint, and I enjoyed the atmosphere because of the different levels in the space; we were on the lower level. Service started fabulously! Overall, there could have been improvements. We were greeted at the door and it was so nice, and our server was also super nice. However, there were some mishaps with our order (some items we received were not what we ordered), but we chose to not cause further issue because the items were still things we would eat (and super tasty!), and our server did seem a little overwhelmed (with restaurant week, I totally get it), and his kindness throughout the night made up for it. Would def try this place again, just maybe on a calmer, less busy day (outside restaurant week).

    Great food and nice vibe. Did not realize it was BYOB so had to run out for some wine once we got there. All turned out ok, though.
