About this restaurant

  • Neighbourhood gem

  • Innovative
Inspired by one of the earliest civilizations in ancient history, the Indus Valley, the Indian fine dining concept will honor creating food for pleasure rather than simply sustenance, as the Indus people pioneered by being one of the first to blend and combine spices for flavoring.

    I ordered a crepe which sounded really good. The soup that came with it was too spicy for me. The crepe hung over the plate. And had no taste when I put in the potatoes and sauce. I left everything. Too bad since I really wanted to like it.

    Excellent service. We had mobility issues and they accommodated our table choice at the last minute. The jackfruit tikka was an unusual treat and the tomato rasam delightful.

    This was a remarkable dinner. The owners have created a lively, welcoming, delicious and special restaurant. The food was fantastic. Chicken masala was our favorite. The drinks were great too. I can’t wait to go back!

    Wonderful elevated Indian food. It started with an amusee bouche of spicy tomato soup with crispy chickpeas. We had the eggplant mousse--order some extra naan to go with-- and the avocado chaat appetizers--both delicious. Entrees: The banana leaf wrapped fish and vegetable biryani . We will definitely go back!

    If you want a more upscale experience with Indian cuisine this is the place for you. Servers are polite, efficient and very helpful with menu choices. The menu itself offers a wide variety of choices, vegetarian and non-vegetarian, that are expertly prepared and presented.

    The unique menu items caught our eye, and we were not disappointed when we came here to try them. The food is excellent, and well presented. The pork vindaloo was an innovative deconstruction, and the sauce on the side was a whole other level higher from typical vindaloo dishes in America. The biryani was very flavorful. The staff and proprietor were all really friendly, and the place has a nice overall ambience. We will definitely go back to try some more dishes.

    We went for brunch and the food was great! The Delhi club sandwich is a must-try off the brunch menu. We also got the coffee cream shake to pair with it. Also recommend trying the crab dosa and fried chicken. Customer service is fabulous and management makes you feel like you’re one of their own. Definitely a quality restaurant!
