“ Great interiors with amazing food. Raj, Sahil, Darshan and all the staff is very cooperative and takes cares of all the customers properly. Food is great and paneer butter masala is a must try! One small suggestion is that items like rajma, kadhi, paneer paratha egg fried rice, egg biryani or more egg items should be added to the menu for a better experience and more variety for the customers to choose from. ”
“ Excellent Indian restaurant- Let’s start with logistics- incredibly easy to get there. Just take Green line to Lechmere - get off at the OזBrian Hwy exit and it’s right there. The food was superb. We love Indian food and spicy food . service was quick and attentive. When I commented that it was a bit spicy for me- immediately got yogurt to lower the spiciest - though didn’t really need it. When looking for good food, I read a lot of reviews- always going to the lowest first- what I liked was that there was a response to every negative review- that showed me that the owner cares and I was right. Really a joy! If you love Indian food- go there. ”
