The naan is seriously good and the saag is delicious, with a lot of paneer. Samosas are flavorful and not greasy at all. Lamb is so tender. Drinks are made well. Overall, this was a wonderful dinner. Thank you

Absolutely delicious! Well made authentic and healthy Indian food. You can tell that every bite had fresh ingredients, with the perfect combination of spices in each one. If you are like me, and not a fan of North Indian foods doused in heavy creams and oils, this is definitely the place for you. The drinks are amazing and several have a creative South Asian twist. I had the cocktail named Chicago Paanwala, and it was divine! The gulab jamun cheesecake for dessert is to die for! The jackfruit cutlet as an app is also a must try. We interacted with several of the staff, hostess, owner, server, and others, who were all incredibly friendly and helpful. Everyone had such a positive demeanor that it really made the experience all that much better. The ambiance is just lovely, and definitely gives you that upscale feel. Definitely will return

Review one
The atmosphere is pretty modern and the food to match. The restaurant has it’s own signature dishes that fit the modern take on classic cuisine. We started off with samosas and were blown away, sooooo tasty. I had the Chicken Basant and was very pleased with my choice, it was creamy, but not saucy. My wife had one of the classic dishes and was satisfied. The dishes come with rice but you can order more, the naan is very tasty but without any modern take that I noticed (tough to improve on an already great recipe). I’d say don’t expect a traditional, saucy dinner as I’m not sure you’d get that here

Ordered food for take-out on a weekday evening. The packaging was good and the food traveled well too. The garlic naan was well-seasoned and soft but did not end up becoming soggy during travel, which is great The malai kofta and the vegetable jalfrezi both tasted great, not overly greasy but also well spiced and balanced. Incidentally the jalfrezi had big chunks of undercooked potatoes, which kind of put us off a little bit
Review three
This place is really good! Not every dish surprised me but overall the experience was very good. I like their Lamb Shank especially. The portion seems small but it actually isn’t. Generally 1 main dish + 1 carb (roti, rice) is enough for 1 person. We ordered a little bit too much. Will definitely come back

Refreshing ambience and music. Service was very nice too. Food was good too. Enjoyed the Rogan Josh. Didn’t drink but the drink menu looked great
Best regards
