★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1I ate here when the afternoon was quiet and enjoyed everything. Excellent flavors and reasonable charges for the amount provided. The personnel offer assistance with sincere friendliness. I couldn't find fault with any course. All my friends have never been to this hotel and they absolutely love it and will definitely be returning.
August 27 · Terixo SmitixI've been enjoying repeated meals here without public praise. This restaurant delivers freshness without the high price tag. All menu items impress while remaining accessible. The employees displayed genuine warmth. This place hasn't seen the last of me!
July 27 · do buiThis restaurant consistently delivers excellent food and service. The worker shared recommendations but left us to choose. The atmosphere offers genuine uniqueness. I have tried many of their dishes and have loved everything. I'm grateful this restaurant is in my area.
July 09 · Ignace ManouryTasty flavor food with great portions and very reasonable prices. It is the kind of place you go to have good food but probably not for a date or formal thing. The only issue we even had was that one of the dishes wasn't that hot but the hostess fixed it quickly.Our favorite dishes were the tandoori chicken, lamb seekh kebab and chicken curry (non veg platter with 2 non veg for 12 and tandoori platter for 13). The naan was also quite good.They have a large selection of food including 10+ curries, biryani and Indian/Pakistani appetizers.
November 12 · Alan VargheseMy usual restaurant disappointments were nowhere to be found. The menu categories made sense. The team delivered remarkably attentive care. The prices are elevated, but value exists in certain items. I'm planning to return, maybe repeatedly.
