I tried the shawarma plate with yellow rice and it was outstanding! The meat was tender and full of flavor, and the rice was perfectly seasoned. Generous portion, great presentation, and friendly service. Highly recommended!

Great Indian food! Had no idea this place was here but super stoked to know about it now and will definitely be going back. Highly recommend. Chicken tikka was spot on and the coconut curry lamb was great too. The naan was fresh with lots of garlic...which is exactly how I like it. And the service was great. These guys aim to please.
