It was very crowded. It was very loud. But the biggest problem is it’s really overpriced. The food is very good, but the portions are small. And we told the waiter twice that we were sharing two small plates of appetizers and then I was going to have two other small plates as my main course. My husband was going to have one of the entrées as a main. Well, they brought all four of the small plates together, so I tried to push mine aside to wait for his, but it was getting cold and so I was done eating before my husband‘s entrée even arrived

We went in not knowing what to expect and were so positively surprised! From the creative menu(burrata chaat is to die for!) to the beautifully appointed tabletop, the attention to detail was in every aspect of the restaurant. The owners came over to the table and were terrific as well. This is a MUST TRY!

We shared the crab dosa app, and butter chicken and vegetable stew entrees. Everything was delicious. My daughter had a mocktail (lavender??), which was beautiful and also delicious. The restaurant is beautiful as are the presentation of the food and the tableware. Our server was very attentive. It was the most enjoyable dining experience we’ve had in a long time, and will be back soon.
