Description
The kitchen blends American food fare with Indian flavors, cooking everything fresh to order. The tandoori paneer biryani—the spicier of the two paneer options—skips traditional Hyderabadi styling for a direct hit of heat topped with fried onions. Samosas also detour from the classic deshi version, featuring a spicy mashed potato filling. The result is a straightforward, reasonably priced stop for quick, punchy spice.
