You can order a la cart, but I love that they have Thali combination plates. You can do Non-Vegetarian or Vegetarian. I tend to go towards the Vegetarian aide of the menu, and it has never disappointed. Everything I have had has been perfectly spiced and to my order. Their Naan is always perfect. I highly recommend to give them your business, we need to keep this gem in Ripon!

Also, while waiting for our last dish, the cook came out to say they did not have it. HAVE AGAIN: The Tandoori chicken was 5-star good. Just the right mild spice. Delicious naan and mango lassi. Malai kofta was recommended by the server and it was very good. NOT HAVE AGAIN: Paneer tikka masala was ok - sauce was delicious, but tofu too plain. God Manchurian was recommended by the cook when she told us our last dish was not available - this was just ok.

Yesterday we ordered and we got lots of chicken in our dish, but unfortunately all of the chicken pieces were so tough that you could hardly chew them. Very disappointed because we ordered two dishes of it. We also ordered chicken tikka masala and the chicken was a little better for that dish but still not great. Hope they take note of their reviews and improve because I would love to support this local restaurant and give them another chance in the future.

My husband had Goat Curry, I had Saag Paneer, and our friend had Chicken Tikka Masala. We also had garlic Naan, and it was the best I've ever had. The food was excellent, and so was the service.

Definitely a different chef from the last time. I would still recommend the butter chicken and saag paneer - solid dishes. Dishes I would be ok with- Pani Puri Mango Lassi - the version they have here is a bit on the thinner side than we're used to Lamb Biryani - The biryani is a little different than we're used to - some tomato in here? Assorted Naan - flavor was ok but they were on the soft side - might have needed some more time in the oven Basil Cream - garlic, basil, cream - this was tasty, but seemed like it was a bit out of place with the other food. Also, I wouldn't recommend the shrimp as they didn't hold up well in the sauce (tiny and a little overcooked) Dishes that weren't my favorite- Bollywood Wings - for a deep fried wing, these have no texture (like a microwaved wing). Flavor is pretty good - like a sweet and sour sauce. Achari Chicken - unfortunately, lots of issues with this dish. It presents nicely as chicken and veggies on a sizzling plate. However, they first start with fully cooked chicken breast which goes onto the hot plate. Maybe if it was parcooked or they used dark meat, it might have survived, but the chicken was bone dry. Other issue was the veggies at the bottom were completely burned and inedible. Overall, the restaurant is still a pretty interesting place to visit due to their abundance in decor. The food didn't hit the spot this time, but we'd be willing to try it again.

From the traditional tandoor to the spotless environment, everything reflects care, consistency, and pride in their service. Beyond groceries and fresh vegetables, the food menu is exceptional, offering a perfect balance of vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. The tandoor selections are a standout--fresh naan, tandoori kulche, chicken tikka, and well-crafted lunch combos, all prepared fresh and bursting with authentic flavor. What makes the experience even better is the courtesy and politeness of the owners, along with their commitment to delivering high-quality service. It's rare to find a place where price, quality, cleanliness, and service come together so seamlessly. I highly recommend everyone give it a try. It's right in our neighborhood, and honestly--you can't complain. Great food, fair pricing, excellent service. A true win.
