Great authentic food, moderately priced with good portions, service was good, the place was packed which is always a good sign. Ordered regular spicy and the don't mess around. I love spicy Indian food but several people in our group found I bit too much. Not to worry you can get a lower spice level.

BEST Indian food I've had in California It says this location is closed, but I went in April and it was open! GARLIC CHILI NAAN: holy never had naan so crispy and seasoned. The chili isn't very spicy and it's more of a green pepper sort of deal. I loooooved their naan Curries: I tried their butter chicken and chicken tikka and they were SOOO flavorful. I'm not much of a curry connoisseur, but I could tell that this place's curries were definitely very rich and savory. You do have to order rice on the side separately. I would say 1 order would be good for 2-3 people on average? Chicken tandoori: wowowow I usually don't like this as much, but the meat fell off the bone and it was so juicy. It was a hit for us Mango lassi: yogurt/mango drink that can never do you wrong Parking: free small parking lot in the back, there's also some metered street parking and a paid lot nearby Wait: came on a Tuesday around 3pm so no wait. A few tables inside. The restaurant wasn't too small or very large Indian food will never be the same.. I will def come back for this

Food was really good and service was okay. They were out of Nan's so we missed that. I also had a chai tea and it was so good! I would probably return to try other menu items.

Got dinner chilli chicken, chicken tikka, garlic naan, butter naan, Amritsari stuffed naan, Chole Battura, Sahi paneer, and malai kofta. All the orders were made to order. The food was fresh, flavorful, and tasty. The ingredients were of good quality. Simple menu run by a family. Beware of couple of things this place doesn't have a restroom for customers yet. They are renovating. The food takes time to come once ordered as they are made after you place them. It is worth the wait though. Raj the person attention customers is super polite courteous smiling and attentive. Ambience is good, place is fresh. Lot of Togo orders, looks like people order do grocery shopping and pick up when done. Bottom line will visit this place again
