We visited thisrestaurant on Sunday evening with a booking for 6:30 PM. Unfortunately, we had to wait around 30 minutes for our table, which wasn't ideal at first. However, the way the staff—especially the host—handled the situation completely turned things around. The host was outstanding from the moment we arrived. He welcomed us with a genuine smile, stayed calm despite how busy it was, and kept checking in on us while we waited. He made an effort to chat with us, which made the wait feel much shorter and more comfortable. His positive attitude and professionalism really stood out. To mak
Suminder Singh, 6 months agoThe atmosphere, service, and the food were all exceptional. We had an amazing time with our family at the restaurant. We really enjoyed the mixed platter and the non- vegetarian platter, and the curries were exceptional as well. To top it all off, the chocolate naan with ice cream was one of the best desserts we have had in a long time. A special shout-out to our waitress, who was exceptional, the manager, who was very kind and welcoming, and also the chefs for the amazing food. It was an amazing experience, and we will definitely be back!
