Guests encounter a variety of protein alternatives crafted from paneer, lentils, and fresh vegetables seasoned to reflect classic regional standards. The open kitchen layout emphasizes the process of grilling skewers and preparing breads within traditional tandoor ovens.

This establishment delivers straightforward preparations of staple recipes that cater to those seeking genuine aromatic profiles and traditional cooking methods.

Before ordering, we specifically asked if some dishes could be made milder because of our dietary restrictions. We were assured they could accommodate & even received suggestions from the staff. Unfortunately, the food arrived exceptionally spicy, making it largely inedible for us despite the otherwise promising flavors.
?While the restaurant staff apologized, they didn't offer to replace the dishes, which was disappointing given our clear initial request. A small gesture of a complimentary mango popsicle was offered to me, but not to my husband, which felt inconsistent. Although the young lady serving us was pleasant, the overall experience fell short, especially considering the high cost for a meal we couldn't finish. I still took the leftovers home to avoid waste, but it was a regrettable outcome.
