I visited this restaurant with my friends & had the Chicken Masala & Garlic Naan. The food was absolutely delicious & full of flavor. The chicken masala was perfectly cooked, & the garlic naan was fresh & complemented the dish very well.

We also tried the Gulab Jamun, & it was amazing-soft, fresh, & just the right level of sweetness.

Overall, the food was very tasty, the experience was great, & I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for good Indian food!

The chicken 65 is my favorite!! It is so rich. The species have a perfect balance. The gravy is so tasty. I also like the Keshimir chai. The flavor & the pink color make me feel happy.

We recently were travelling from Toronto to Montreal & had the pleasure of eating veg biryani, dal makhani & kadahi panner here. The food is so tasty. Ambience is good & it has a lot of seating space. Would go again.

Not gonna lie, one of the greatest Indian restaurants I've been so far. I did order a Paneer Biryani & it was a flavor bomb. Whoever is cooking the food in the kitchen absolutely knows his job. Also the Mango Lassy was smooth & tasty as you would expect it. Thanks for also for the great & kind service.
