Definitely going to return to this restaurant! A friend and I came, and I’m gluten intolerant, but she can eat just about anything. She admitted later that she was nervous when she found out it was also vegan, but as soon as we got our first appetizer, we knew we were in good hands. Everything was fresh, deeply flavorful and nuanced And balanced, and delicious. We loved the lentil fritters, and the gluten-free samosas (which are softer than traditional wheat samosas but still very delicious), and the tamarind sauce they came with, and our entrées. Everything was delicious and filling! We barely had room for dessert but we were glad we did, dessert is wonderful if you like coconut. Though I’m not a huge fan of coconut shavings, which made up the bulk of the crust of the mango cake I got, I still was happy to finish it because it was just that good. Both of us were thinking of friends we could recommend the spot to before we were finished. I will say they take a little time to get dishes out, so keep that in mind— but freshness THAT good takes time!

The food was very good and the atmosphere was very pleasant. Gluten free pizza was available. I thought it was very thoughtful that they have tables of all sizes to accommodate parties of all sizes, even 2 tables that seat 10 people each. Will definitely return. Recommended!

Delicious vegetarian Indian food, casual nice atmosphere, lovely service. This is my go to Indian restaurant in Chicago. Perfect for a night out or ordering in. Gluten free options. Good sized portions, great flavors, crispy delicious dosas!
