          Food was great! Lots of flavor and fresh. It is slightly louder in there but because the tables are closer together this helps with keeping your conversation private. Servers were nice! Definitely would go back!

          We arrived at our reservation time where we were seated shortly after. However, the staff appeared to be understaffed because we were not greeted for 15 minutes. The host noticed and asked if we were greeted who took our drink orders and appetizers. The food was great but the service was not the best. The host essentially became our server and was nice.

          Amazing food! My Indian husband loved it, and that says a lot! Great flavors and not spicy. If you like spice feel free to go medium or hot. We enjoyed everything! The service was also fantastic.

          Food was great and server was attentive. However, we had an 8:00 reservation and they were making a strong effort to make us leave by 9. We thought it was very odd that they permitted an 8pm reservation, but not allow enough time to have an enjoyable dinner. It did not make for a pleasant experience.
