It was an incredible experience! We came from Monroe based on the reviews and we were not disappointed in the slightest. Every single dish we tried was spectacular and the chef was extremely kind and passionate about his meals. Will definitely go again and I highly encourage anyone reading this to visit as well, you won't be let down!

If you have not been here you need to go. The hospitality and service was unbelievable and the food was even better. They gave us samples and helped guide us with what to order! I’m gluten free and they were so accommodating and helpful. We will def be back . Run dont walk to this place. Everyone needs to go asap

We ordered vegetarian food for 20 people for an at home dinner. Food was packed and labeled very well. Out of the menu we chose, the beet squash croquettes, vegetable and truffle naanza were outstanding. Dal makhni had a slow-cooked rich flavor without any creme and the paneer lasagna was an innovative fusion dish. The gajar halwa was also very tasty with a home cooked saffron flavor. Chef Salil was kind enough to to send us samples of the Chaimisu and Indian Cheesecake for our guests to try. The Chaimisu was melt on your mouth goodness.

The Best Tasting Experience I ever had. Sal is the Best chef! His food creations are Amazing! This was 6 months ago. Now today 03/10/2025. Absolutely astonishing delicious. A must go and visit and try delicious Indian location. Carrot pudding added. A must try. Cooked carrot with pistachio chips on top. Delicious. I love carrots.

This place was nothing short of amazing! My family and friends are big foodies—we’ve tried some of the best spots all across New Jersey. We even keep a running list of top restaurants, and this one immediately made the cut. I can’t recommend it enough to anyone who loves talking shop about great food. The owner and chef, Sal, is incredible. His passion for what he does is contagious, and his commitment to both health and quality is beyond admirable. He personally took the time to explain the menu to us, and honestly, by the time he was done describing the intricate concepts of Indian fusion cuisine, I wanted to order one of everything. You can tell he puts his heart and soul into every dish. Let me try to describe what we had (though I know I won’t do these dishes justice). We started with Sal’s take on arancini balls, which were a special that night, filled with a flavorful cilantro-infused chicken—so unique and absolutely delicious. Then we tried the beef kebabs, another special, made with American Wagyu beef along with two other meats I can’t quite remember. Both the truffle mushroom ravioli and the beef ravioli were exceptional, with ravioli encased in samosa dough and topped with a dreamy garlic cream sauce. Malai Chicken Tikka Tacos were Phenomenal The portions were generous, and even though we were stuffed, we couldn’t stop eating because it was all so good. Even my daughter, the pickiest eater in the family, polished off her chicken tenders and fries. Of course, Chef Sal gave even this kid’s meal his special touch, and it did not disappoint. Dessert was the perfect ending to an already incredible meal. We tried the Chai-misu (a chai-inspired twist on tiramisu), the Indian cheesecake (made without sugar, using in-house date syrup instead), and an ice cream sampler featuring berry, coconut, green tea, mango, and chocolate. The chocolate, by the way, was almost fudge-like, with just a hint of hazelnut. We were so full at this point, but the desserts were too good not to finish. Oh, and did I mention it’s BYOB? Yet another reason we’ll definitely be back soon.

The best meal I’ve had in a very long time. Excellent service from the owner. He’s experimenting with Indian food in a way I’ve never seen before. This place, and concept, will be going far. Try it out.
