-
One of my best Indian restaurants to eat at.
-
Their food is delicious, however; the only problem is that they use vegetable oil to cook their foods and way too much sugar. Studies have shown that vegetable oil, canola oil and all types of seed oils causes cancer and other chronic diseases, and for this reason, my wife and I will not go back to this place, until they reconsider to cook with healthy oils like beef tallow, ghee, coconut oil or avocado oil. Some of their dishes are loaded with sugar and they need to reduce that as well, as excess sugar causes diabetes.

This was my first time visiting this restaurant, and I was truly impressed. The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. The service was friendly, and the overall atmosphere was welcoming and enjoyable. Everything exceeded my expectations, and I will definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!

Normally I would have just came in and ordered the buffett which has a good selection. Today i was very busy with errands and ordered a to go order for pickup and specified a time an hour away. 45 minutes before my scheduled pickup i recieved notification that my order was ready. I had to drop what I was doing and race across town to pick it up. If this was going to be the case I would have just came in and got buffet. My mango Lassi was like water and my chicken65 was cold and soggy. If you camnot read the ticket then you shouldn't provide an option for a scheduled pick up!
