A creamy Indian curry with your choice of chicken, lamb, or vegetables.
“This place caught my wife and I totally off guard. Best Indian food we’ve had in the states. We ended up ordering a weeks worth of food, it was so good — we got the chicken korma, paneer, and chicken tikka masala, with sides of roti and garlic cheese naan. The naan in particular was a standout, I didn’t want to dip it in anything because it tasted so good on its own. Interior was also delightful, they didn’t skimp on materials. May this place have a long and bright future.”
“Everything was tasty - Tikka masala, korma, daal, rice, and naan. Quick service and beautiful space. Too busy eating and forgot to get food pics”

Chicken Tikka Masala
$25.00
Tandoor-cooked chicken is served in a creamy tomato curry sauce.
“Absolutely DELICIOUS! The classic chicken tikka masala was perfect, and the Indo-Chinese noodles were a hit. The spice levels were also very accurate, so don’t get spicy if you’re not ready for a real burn. 😅 The interior looks better in person, with great decor and lighting for a romantic night-out vibe. The service was great too — I told our waiter we were short on time, and they graciously accommodated us and recommended dishes with quick cook times. In short, a must try spot for great Indian food in the area!”
