    The service was above and beyond - it was unusually not too busy for a Sat morning and our server didn't interrupt us to push us out. We appreciated that since that is not always possible at this busy restaurant.

    Food was flavorful without excessive spiciness. Everyone in our group agreed it was some of the best Indian food we have ever had. Service was top notch and prices were not excessive. We ordered appetizers, five entrees we all shared and a bottle of wine for 5 people and it was less than $200. Great value for the money!
