Absolutely outstanding dinner! The favours and unique presentation were a marvel for the eyes and taste buds. We started with the Chaat - not to be missed and the presentation was a show in and of itself - the Kulcha Tacos and Chai & Cutlet, both also very delicious. Next was the Makhan Chicken Tikka and Goan Prawn Curry. The curry comes with rice and we added garlic naan - you want to ensure you don't leave any of the sauce behind! The food is very favourful but can tend to the spicy side (which we enjoy) - rely on your server's recommendations. There are 2 dining areas - we were in the smaller one so the noise level was captured between the walls a little bit more but not bad at all. The entrance to the restaurant is not off the street - you have to go through the lobby of the building. We almost walked into the kitchen. Highly recommend and we'll ge going back for sure!
