From the pleasant cashier, where you order and pay for your food, to the staff that bring the food to your table and come by periodically to check on you. The food was delicious, reasonably priced and good portion size. I had the Saag Paneer and my wife had the coconut goat curry that she said was perfectly spiced. As usual we found this place on Yelp when trying to find a good place to eat near our lodging for the night. Highly recommend. Even the area this restaurant is in was nice and clean.

The tandoori chicken has the seasoning baked on like a thick paste of spices, rather then lightly rubbed it was caked in spice. The anses chicken was to spicy, they took it back and brought it back out and it was more bearable but it was basically bones and soup. The amount of actual chicken must have all fallen off the bones into the giant pot back in the kitchen because I basically was served a bowl with what felt like picked over chicken bone scraps with tiny little morsels that were like fingernail size pieces of chicken, I had already had them take it back because of spice and bring it back out so I didn't even bother complaining about the lack of any real food being in the bowl by this point. I would never go back.

It's not a very big restaurant, but there's a good amount of space to enjoy with family or friends, and the service was good.

We ordered drunken noodles with chicken and vegetable lo mein. The portions were great, everything tasted amazing, and I liked that they asked how spicy we wanted it. I would definitely go back :)

I got a Chicken Tikka pizza (12", 8 pieces) for lunch - big enough for two people or two servings…read morefor one person. The taste was very good and a little spicy, which I really appreciate. The crust was not stellar. It was not thin (I prefer thick) but it was kind of limp, not crisp, so it was virtually impossible to pick up a single slice with my hands. I ended up cutting pieces to make them more manageable or used a fork under an entire slice to help support it while I ate. It didn't stop me from eating all the crust, up to the edges, which is my usual modus operandi. The plasticware was kind of on the shabby side. There were a few (less than a dozen) loose forks and spoons (not wrapped) in a station where you get such stuff. Curiously, there were no knives but I thought I would ask if I needed one. It turns out that I did want a knife, I asked the staff, they rooted around a bit, but couldn't find any at first. I keep a small supply of plasticware, napkins, etc in my car so I got a knife from there. In the meantime, the staff did turn up a couple of individually-wrapped plastic knives. I used mine instead and put the knives with the other plasticware for others to use. I ate half of the pizza at the restaurant and I got a takeaway box for the other half of the pizza for dinner. I will probably return to try other things.

Hoping to relive that experience, I ordered the same entrées from the Apex location this weekend. What a disappointment. Not only did the Chicken Mandakini and Mughlai look almost identical, they tasted almost identical too. The distinct flavors that made these dishes special were completely missing. At nearly $18 per entrée, I expected quality and authenticity, not two dishes that seemed to come from the same generic gravy base. Unfortunately, this meal was nowhere close to what we enjoyed at the Morrisville location. Sadly, this will be my last order from this restaurant. Never again.

My friend ordered the chili shrimp (decent but not spicy) and what looked like the Indian version of chicken fajitas, and that was equally as tasty. All in all it was way more upscale than I expected and the portion sizes were variable. Great place to get a late dinner on a Friday night tho!! It has a very pretty, aesthetically pleasing, romantic atmosphere.

Chicken tikka sandwich didn't have a lot of chicken plus it was supposed to be on sourdough. It looked & tasted like regular white bread.

They skimped out on the Gobi Manchurian, which was so crispy and well-seasoned. Mango Lassi was solid, slightly tart compared to others I have had before. I loved the Chicken Tikka Masala! So much spice and sauce in the bowl. It also tasted great with the Garlic Naan. This is a fantastic restaurant with delicious food. I should try Nepali food instead of reverting to Indian food, but it was too tasty to deny. I recommend everyone comes here for lovely South Asian food.

We came on a Friday evening and had about a 20-minute wait, but it was absolutely worth it once we were seated. Service stood out right away. Our waiter checked on us regularly and made sure our water glasses were always full, which is a small thing but goes a long way during a busy night. We started with ginger tea, which was warm, fragrant, and a great way to kick off the meal. For food, we ordered two appetizers, along with the chicken korma and butter chicken, and everything was phenomenal. The flavors were rich and comforting. One detail I appreciated was that the rice came in individual servings instead of one large shared bowl, which made it easier for everyone at the table. Great food, attentive service, and worth the wait, we'll definitely be back!
