The website is incredibly user-friendly, & what really stood out is that they have their own delivery system, no Uber Eats or DoorDash. That's something special these days.
My order arrived in about 20 minutes, & the food was hot, fresh, & absolutely delicious. I had the Mendra chicken with rice & naan.
I'll definitely be ordering again. Highly recommend!
The food was tasty, but I will rate it poorly for the customer service. I wanted to order just onions on the side with my food order, & I looked at the menu; it wasn't there. So I called the restaurant & asked them to put some onions on the side. They said,'Go in the menu; you'll find salad.' But when I checked, there wasn't one specifically for onions. I called them back, & they said they couldn't put onions on the side. I don't understand that you're running a restaurant, but you can't put the onion on the side with the food. I was ready to pay for it too, but I couldn't find it on the menu & couldn't taste garlic on garlic naan it was like plain naan
La nourriture était savoureuse, mais le service client laisse à désirer. Je voulais simplement commander des oignons à part avec mon plat, mais ils n'étaient pas sur la carte. J'ai donc appelé le restaurant pour en demander. On m'a répondu : « Regardez la carte, vous trouverez une salade. » Or, il n'y avait pas d'option avec des oignons. J'ai rappelé, & on m'a dit que ce n'était pas possible. Je ne comprends pas comment on peut tenir un restaurant & ne pas proposer les oignons à part. J'étais même prête à payer, mais je ne les trouvais pas sur la carte & le naan à l'ail n'avait pas le goût d'ail ; il était nature.
Je me suis fait livrer de l'agneau un vendredi soir, directement auprès du resto, sans application...
Après une longue attente de 1:10h & un appel passé au resto pour voir si la commande était en route, j'ai enfin pu déguster mon repas...
L'agneau était délicieux! Tendre, la sauce goûteuse MAIS, 5 cubes d'agneau, un riz sec, réchauffé & un pain naan hors d'usage, tout mouillé pour 24$, selon moi, c'est rire des gens....

Stopped by after climbing at Zero Gravite. It was late in the evening, 9pm ish, so not crowded at all. We were a group of three. We didn't need to wait for a table. We ordered plain naan, & a few dips. They all were tasty. I loved the veggie options more (e.g., the spinach). The lamb was good too. Chicken, I remembered it was a bit dry, not my favorite but the soup was good.
Durant plusieurs années c'était un restaurant excellent, des aliments frais,des portions généreuse,des prix raisonnables. Mais c'est 5 dernières années la qualité à nettement diminué & les prix augmentés.
Dans une toast avec une (1) tranche de fromage il y a plus de fromage que dans leurs pizzas.
Si vous commandez de la bouffe indienne assurez-vous de commander assez de pain naan pour tremper la sauce avec 4 Petit cube de viande.
I have ordered from here numerous times over the years & was never disappointed but I just ate there in person & it was fantastic!! I couldn't believe the cocktail prices! I had an excellent dry martini. I had the bengan bhartha which was very nice, with good paratha, but I got to try the items on the thali from my friends & every single one was outstanding. Perfect naan. Parking was not an issue right out front on the street & it was free after 6pm! Normally I'd take public transit or bike anyway & it's a great location. I've never tried the Italian side of the menu so I can't comment on that. But we got a piece of blackforest cake for my friend's birthday & I'm not usually a fan of cake, & particularly that kind, but it was also really good!
My new favorite Indian restaurant! Ordered take out, & everything we had was delicious! Tried the veggie combo, & it came fast, & everything was fresh, hot, & tasty! Best gulab jamun (dessert donut ball thingy) I've ever had! Amazing Naan bread, too! Everything was packed well & generous portion sizes. Will definitely order from here again. I'm pleased to have discovered this place :)
We had a very pleasant surprise. When we saw thar their menu was half Italian half Indian, we hoped that they had truly authentic Indian flavors. They did not disappoint. Wow. From the moment you enter you get the delicious smell coming from their kitchen . The food was perfect. I would love to see that their main dishes will come with rice or naan bread , but we ordered the sampler plater & ended up ordering more naan. If we were locals we would definitely visit them once a week. The service was perfect given the fact that there was only one server & 2 tables. The place is elegant & clean. Thank you.
Nous avons commandé depuis leur site internet où ils proposent une livraison par leur propre moyen, je vous recommande de faire comme cela. Les prix sont très honnêtes. Nous avons pris un poulet korma, agneau khali, pokora & naan supplémentaire avec 3 sauces pour 77$ livraison, tips & taxes inclus 👍. En plus c'était très bon & très copieux. Pour info, avec le plat, vous avez riz & naan 🤝
