    Excellent food and ambiance. The Kolapuri Murg Tikka, jackfruit curry, duck pepper fry and dal tadka were all delicious. Please notify people of your new wine corkage fee policy when they are booking their reservations.

    They require a credit card to book It’s BYOB but they charge a corkage fee!? They tried to charge a fee for our beer but another waiter explained that was a miscommunication. After that it took awhile for us to order and then the vegetarian dish I came for was sold out (at 6pm). House music was way too loud (again at 6pm). Food was good. Not great. Frustrating experience. In no hurry to return.

    Each dish is a uniquely delivered delicious experience with explosive tastes! The service is impeccable with ongoing checkins to make sure you are thoroughly enjoying this one of a kind dining experience. The noise level follows the name of the restaurant 👏

    The food was good. It is disappointing that they charge a corckage fee for wine. They are a byob, do not serve wine, and yet charge you to bring your own? That makes no sense., Very loud.

    The dishes were delicious and the atmosphere was very colorful and vibrant. Some people in our party had dishes that were more spicy than anticipated, so it might help if spice levels can be specified or requested. The eggplant dish and garlic naan were incredible. The paneer lababnaar was also a favorite.
