"Everything was hot and fresh. I had hot lamb Tikka masala . It was, in fact, spicy. I like spicy food but this made my eyes misty and cleared up my sinuses. Nothing gross. It wasn't overly spicy to me but if you don't like your lips to tingle, don't get hot. Next time I may get medium to share. Other than that, the Tikka masala was thick, complex umami flavors, not overly sweet and the lamb was tender. The rice amount was perfect and it had flavor. I don't want a hub cap full of bland rice for just me. I was only able to eat half of my entree and rice because the portions are decent. Hands down THE best Garlic naan I've ever had! Flavorful, garlicky, salty, buttery, fluffy, and perfectly fired. I would eat the naan for dinner by itself. It was buy one get one naan so now I have breakfast. The Gulab jamoon is still warm and looks like a treat. I'll have to try it later. I definitely recommend this place! Please don't change a thing!"
"Ordered chicken tikka masala and garlic naan. Food arrived hot. Portions were fair for prce paid . Chicken pieces were enormous and slightly dry. Asked for medium spice but it was mild, almost bland. Rice was bland as well. Garlic naan was generously portioned, but could have more garlic."
