I had dinner with two friends last night & we ordered the vegetarian plate & the protein plate, with a pot of chai masala tea. We were able to get an outdoor table. Excellent food & friendly service! Everything was hot & fresh, with beautiful presentation & generous portions. I've visited several times & it's always been a good experience. Thank you!
