Everything was divine. We started with several appetizers and a couple of drinks, progressed to the lamb and fish curries, and finished with a delicious cardamom ice cream and puff pastries. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. I am hesitant to suggest what to order because everything was really good, I’m pretty sure if on picks what they are interested in they will like it. But I didn’t take one picture for you.

Wow! Food is delicious and presentation is great! We have four people, ordered four small dishes to share and two main courses: butter chicken, curry fish. Coconut rice and garlic bread. Everything is so good. My favorite is their appetizers and drink. Don’t miss it.

Well deserving the Michelin star this location once had. Amazing food, great service and a very modern looking restaurant. Everything we tried was just spectacular and I can't wait to go back once I'm I'm SFO. Loved the neighborhood as well, very eclectic
