This restaurant changed hands a few years ago & as regular patrons, we have watched the quality of…read morefood go steadily downhill. Those who may not have a reference point as far as Indian cuisine is concerned may not notice this. To give specific examples from our last foray at the restaurant: 1) Punjabi Kadi is a standard, staple dish in the Punjab region of South Asia. In its current iteration, served in the buffet at Taj Mahal, the "pakoris" (fritters) in the kadi were half-cooked. 2) Goat curry--another North Indian staple was had several cubes of goat similarly half cooked. Or maybe the selection of meat was not good. Either way we ended up trying several pieces & then ultimately leaving them uneaten. 3) Lachcha Paratha was similarly half cooked. There were several parts of the paratha which had raw dough. Indian cuisine is not just about "masala" (mixture of different spices). It is about first selection of right ingredients. It is about adding the right spices. And above all it is about ensuring the marriage of those spices to the ingredients and ensuring every part of the food is adequately cooked. It was quite telling that none of the patrons that for that morning lunch hour were South Asian. Perhaps they have learnt to keep away from the restaurant. The service though, was polite, attentive and respectful. The ambiance that of a casual eatery. It will take a lot of time before it attracts its old clientele back, if ever.

This place was a delightful surprise from start to finish. The flavors are bold and memorable, and…read morethe sauces are rich and deeply flavorful, especially when paired with the garlic naan which I loved dipping into them. The spice has a noticeable kick that clears your sinuses, although it could be a little intense for me. Something cooling on the side, like a cucumber salad, a yogurt based sauce, or even a yogurt drink, would have really balanced the heat for me personally. Even though the curry portions may look small at first, they are still quite satisfying when eaten with the garlic naan and rice, and the depth of flavor keeps you engaged throughout the meal. The samosas also had a unique and engaging taste. The dessert was also wonderful, a sweet, sugar soaked donut that felt comforting and indulgent, and was honestly hard not to love. Next time, I would love to try one of their spinach dishes. I felt healthy after coming here which makes me want to come back!!

The tikka masala and butter chicken are both excellent -- rich, flavorful, and exactly what you want for a great Indian takeout. The garlic naan is perfectly done, and the lamb chops are another favorite- perfectly spiced. Everything is high quality across the board. I really appreciate that we can customize the spice level, and that portions are generous enough to stretch across a couple of meals. Ordering online is simple and straightforward, and pickup is relatively simple. We've yet to dine in, but hopefully will soon. Highly recommend!

Samosa Chaat - 4 istars - Chunks of samosa and chickpeas tasted moderately spicy. Tandoori Pompret - 5 stars - This fish was a large size, and it was cooked perfectly. Its white meat was moist and tender. Palak Paneer - 3 stars - My husband ate this entree, which is one of his go-to's at other Indian restaurants. He said that he was not a fan of the flavors. Garlic naan - 5 stars - This naan was baked nicely and tasted very good. Gulab Jamoon - 5 stars - Fried dough balls were soaked in sugary syrup. This dessert tasted deliciously sweet as expected.

I was simply picking up an order for take-out, and it was late already, so I just kinda did a 'YOLO' and picked it up anyway. The guy was nice. The food was tasty.

I doubt it -- restaurants are usually on their best behavior once they get one of these 'Scarlett letters', but I'll edit here if anything happens. Also the dining room was COMPLETELY empty.

The naan with dipping extra sauce on the side was perfect for sharing, the mango lassi was smooth, easy to drink (I have had some that was too too thick) and refreshing. the samosa chaat brought a great mix of crunch, spice, and sweetness.

The paneer lababdar was really good. Asparagus kofta was probably the even better, and then the dal makhani was also good.
