Abdul is one of the most amazing chefs that I have come across. I ordered the vindaloo, & the taste were amazing & the level of spice made me check myself. It made me experience the flavors while still delivering the heat that I would expect. This was one best dining experiences in a long time. Highly recommend & you won't disappointed. I give give one hundred stars on scale of five.
Good service & a great location. The staff were welcoming & the overall environment was pleasant. However, the food quality needs improvement. I tried the butter chicken, which tasted more like a soup, & the chicken biryani, which was closer to a pulav. The service was good, but the dishes didn't meet expectations, & I hope the quality can be improved.

Nous avons dîné dans ce magnifique restaurant hier, la décoration est superbe avec la belle musique indienne, le service est remarquable avec le serveur gentil, attentionné & souriant , il parle très bien français. J'ai mangé le poulet au beurre & mon mari l'agneau, c'était délicieux. Je recommande ce restaurant pour un souper romantique & une impression d'être en voyage en Inde.
