Description
The daily lunch and dinner menu features North Indian dishes alongside unexpected options like the teekan marg, a Caribbean-influenced chicken dish cooked in a very spicy, tomato-based sauce. While many diners praise the flavorful preparations, others note that select dishes can be under-seasoned. The dining experience is supported by warm, attentive service, with staff known for accommodating early arrivals and offering complimentary fried rice straws.
