An exceptional experience, flavourful, thoughtful, and generous. This wasn’t their presentation, it’s takeout, but the quality absolutely deserves a proper photo and review. The restaurant came highly recommended by my fussy Indian colleague, and I can now say: I’d rate them even higher. What truly stood out was the service. The young man who took my order called me back to double-check if I was okay with gluten, something that is typically the customer’s responsibility to mention. That level of care was genuinely above and beyond. Every dish impressed. The Chicken 65 was incredibly tender, generously portioned for just $17, and packed with deep, rich flavor. The onion rings were an unexpected delight—lightly spiced, not greasy, and a perfect textural contrast. But the star of the meal was the Palak Paneer. It’s easily the best I’ve had in years. The spinach was fresh and vibrant, the texture velvety, and the seasoning masterfully done, mildly sweet, gently creamy, with spices that complemented the dish instead of overpowering it. It reminded me of how Palak Paneer is meant to taste. It was so good, I paused mid-meal, plated it properly, and took a photo, because food this good deserves to be celebrated. Highly recommended.
