We didn't know what to expect when we walked in the door, but the host was so good at food suggestions that we thoroughly enjoyed everything. The Parota bread was really fresh & so good with all the curry dishes!

I guess your servers need to be less rude. Filter coffee disappointing, idly 65 again bad. Everyone save your time & money by not going here.
