Description

Formerly known as Ahimsa, the restaurant operates quietly with little marketing, giving it the feel of a local secret. The kitchen is highly adaptable, accommodating specific dietary needs with vegan, gluten-free, and Jain options. The menu spans from light bites to heavy, rich curries, drawing on regional flavors from across India. While the service is consistently reliable, some diners note occasional inconsistencies with the freshness of the bread.
