We were really hungry and decided to join them as I've had this spot saved too as the reviews were pretty positive. They were definitely very popular but we were put on the waitlist but I think it would be helpful if they took peoples' numbers as apparently they would just shout it outside. We weren't aware as we went somewhere else to wait as it was very cold. When we arrived, a different employee started cleaning a table for us and we waited but then the employee who did put us down was frustrated with us as he called us and no one of us answered cause we were elsewhere. We weren't sure if we had a spot after that but luckily the employee who was cleaning was done and offered that spot. They also did drop a glass cup after cleaning nearby which was concerning but they did clean it up right away. Once we were seated, it took almost a half an hour to get some to take our order. Luckily we did get our water refilled decently but there were a few times where our empty glasses were seen and ignored. I definitely think there should be staff training as it was non-existent. I understand being busy but you're across the convention center so it should be expected. The music was also so low I didn't know it was even on, they have a loud fan going on and even their TVs have no volume. It's a pretty awkward ambiance, especially with how they try to look like they are a upscale restaurant. It did take some time to get food and it seems like the kitchen was frustrated too as I heard the bell signaling food being ready several times. The food was actually good, especially for the price. The portions are generous. We never had paratha but our friend recommended it so we got the aloo paratha while my boyfriend got their butter masala and I got their tikka masala extra hot. It wasn't really spicy at all, definitely nothing like what I've had at other Indian restaurants. The curries were flavorful with good pieces of chicken. We might return if we need something nearby but there are definitely better options that I would walk for.

My favorite, though, was the saag paneer, which was incredibly flavorful. The garlic naan was also fantastic. The tandoori chicken was well seasoned, but it was a bit salty and dry. Will definitely be coming back sometime soon to try more of their curries and other dishes!

We ordered garlic naan, papadum, butter chicken, baingan bhartha, and chutneys. Butter chicken is perfect amount of creaminess and tanginess. It uses thigh meat, which I prefer as the meat is less likely to be dry. The chutneys came with tamarind chutney, carrot achar, and mint chutney. Great to accompany your biryani, rice and curries, samosas, and pappadum. The mango lassi was also great! Everything seemed reasonably priced and I was very happy with my experience. The staff were very sweet. I loved the music playlist in the background and the colorful art on the walls. The restaurant was very clean when we went, and I can always appreciate a clean bathroom when I come across one! I definitely recommend this place to you and your friends!

The food came quickly, but it became apparent after a few bites that the quality just wasn't there. The curries were quite watery, lacking depth of flavour, and proper integration. We were honestly shocked how poor the curries were. It's not like they tasted bad, but there was simply no depth of flavour, depth, nor proper array of flavours. Friendly service, reasonably priced, moderate portions. I wouldn't return unless I knew they totally revamped all the dishes / got a new chef.

Well better late than never I guess as we finally made it here and simply loved the food! I got my favorite when it comes to Indian cuisine which was the Chicken Vindaloo. It was wonderful! Steve liked his dish as well (though I can't quite remember what it is)! We got some Garlic Naan to go along with our meal. It was huge! But we chowed it down and loved every moment of it! From the bar which I think is called the Yeti Bar we got some Saffron infused cocktails. The one I picked was the Madras. It wad very good and this type of vodka added a great, unique dimension to the cocktail. We loved it!

The kind where the food is comforting, the people are kind, and everything feels just a little more peaceful. The butter chicken is warm and rich in all the right ways, the biryani is full of beautiful, layered spices, and the naan is soft, fresh, and perfect for sharing. You can tell each dish is made with care. The team here is thoughtful and welcoming, and they make sure you have everything you need without ever making you feel rushed. That kind of service stays with you. And being so close to the Seattle waterfront makes it even nicer. It's a lovely place to enjoy a meal and slow down for a moment. If you're looking for Indian food in Seattle--especially around Westlake--this is a place where you'll feel right at home. I'll be back, and I think you might want to be, too.
