Service was very poor. Took a long time to take our order and while we were in the middle of dinner wanted to know if we are going to pack our food. Felt like a factory trying to get us out the door.

We ordered the shrimp masala appetizer and were served popcorn shrimp that you can buy in bags at your local supermarket freezer section with some aioli (fancy word for mayo) to dip them in on the side. I voiced my disappointment to 2 separate servers, but my feedback meant nothing. This set the tone for the rest of the meal. The butter chicken and tandoori chicken were ok but lacked spice. Rather bland. If you're craving delicious Indian food do yourself a favor and drive a little further to Iselin. Many good Indian restaurants there.

I have had better food on prior visits. My family liked all we had. I find it a little pricey ; but understand they have no liquor license to help defray costs. Service is always very good. We will be back.

Dinner a few weeks ago was fantastic but brunch was American not Indian. Four of us and only one was not completely disappointed. Avoid French toast, waffles, scrambled eggs, noodles, lukewarm chai tea. $38 for juice entree and side not worth it.

Great atmosphere. Great service. A creative twist on Indian food, more on the fusion side. Enjoyed all the dishes. Dosa croquettes- really good Chicken 65 - great flavor , perfectly crisp Goat cheese naan - the best Boneless tandoori chicken - very good flavor and chicken was tender Garlic mushroom dish - YUMMY !!! Chicken tikka masala - a tad bit sweet for my taste Chicken biryani - nice and light , and good flavor The halwas were great !!! The kulfi was a bummer - it was not a kulfi , it was ice cream.
