The ambiance is probably one of its strongest points, the interior wall is just beautiful. The food is really good, rivaling any Indian food Philadelphia has to offer. The drinks are also quality. The spinach Chaat was properly crispy. The shrimp tikka salad was lightly dressed, just the way it should be. The vindaloo was proper. The only weak point is the serving size, it's on the small side but maybe that's a good thing. The service is excellent and very attentive. Overall I would certainly recommend without hesitation.

Found this place when researching restaurants for a short trip in to Philly. It was hands down some of the best Indian food we’ve had and we’ve had a lot in NYC and surrounding areas. Every dish was flavorful and fresh. Not like other places were the same sauce is used for five different dishes. My very picky son said it was the best butter chicken he ever had. The Spinach Chaat is divine, as is the salmon Malabar and the lamb Malabar. It was so good that when our trip required driving past Philly to get back home, we even took a detour back into the city to eat it one more time before heading back home, our biggest wish is that another location opens up in New York City or Connecticut.

I joined one of Yelp private event at this restaurant. I definitely enjoyed my night. The staff were very friendly and professional. The restaurant was clean. The catering food was delicious! As I was leaving the building, I noticed a table ordered a skewer and a curry dish. That order look amazing to the point I want to order one to go! I am definitely coming back to try out their food on the menu. Also, the Rupee beer was pretty good. I normally just a sip or two with beer, but this mango wheat ale Rupee beer I actually almost finished that before heading off! I'm glad they gave me another one so I can take home and let my husband try that too. Nice relaxing atmosphere and glad to make some new friends!

The atmosphere was really great. Even though it was a crowded night, the staff was really friendly and tried their best to be on time and not delay our orders. The food was delicious as well. I liked their palak paneer the best!

Love this place. Food is excellent. They're set up with tables for two, banquets, sports parties. Highly recommended.
