    I came in for late lunch, and since there was no one here (3pm) the owner gave me some free appetizers :) nice people and DELISH food for any palette! Try their Spinach Saag Paneer with rice :)

    Very good service. I came in late for their lunch buffet but they still let me in and was gracious enough to serve me without feeling like I'm being rushed out. Even got a drink on the house.

    I loved the lamb here, and I discovered kheer, the rice pudding. All the food was incredible and such a great price.
