George Lee: Chicken tikka masala taco is a game changer. The chicken is actually battered which just blows my mind. Everyone else needs to step up their taco game.
Maggie: The spicy chicken tikka masala was one of our favorites! On the other hand, I didn't love the curry mayo on the fish&chips.
John Cassillo: Big tacos, so probably don’t need to order more than two. Highly recommend the tikka masala taco.

Shelley J: Get the kati roll w/ combo of paneer & chicken. If you like spicy get tikka, if not do hariyali. Get the toppings they suggest and ALL the chutneys! Add a side of masala fries with cilantro mayo!
