Ordered via Grubhub — portions were tiny, considering I spent $85 on food. Also there was a large bug in the tikka masala or the cauliflower — I only noticed after I’d started eating & things were mixed together on the plate…

This was such an amazing meal. My two friends and I came in for dinner last night and were promptly seated, water came quickly, and we selected our food and a minute later the waiter came. His name (I think) was Chuc. He was excellent, he brought over everything in a timely manner. We got three entrees, all of which were amazing. We decided to be a little basic and ordered a cashew curry and a tikka masala, and one daal makhani. On top of that, we order rice and an order of the garlic naan. Upon the food’s arrival, we barely said a word to each other because our mouths were taking everything in. It was the kind of food that makes you shut up, the kind that all you can say is either, “Mmm~” or “This is so good!” We also got a second plate of garlic naan which was a great call as it was some of the best naan we had ever had. The cashew curry had a good creaminess to it, the tikka masala was perfectly sweet with the tomatoes carrying the dish, and the daal makhani was savory and hearty. I

For appetizers we ordered Chicken Momos, Samosa Tarkari, Crispy Chicken and a Chicken Sekuwa. We liked the Crispy Chicken over the Chicken Momo. The Sekuwa and Samosa Tarkari were also delicious. For the main course we got Chicken Biryani, Goat curry and Chicken tikka masala curry. Everyone liked the biryani but we didn't like the curries. Their Mint/Ginger mojito is pretty good. Overall it's a good place.
