I had researched some of the dishes i was interested in and I wrote them down. The waitress was so accommodating. I showed her my list and she explained how each one is prepared and the flavors of each. My friend and I ordered a platter of appetizers, the mango lassie, delicious, and the chicken marsala. Also the almond naan. Everything was amazing cooked with such love and the staff are so warm and welcoming and fun. We really enjoyed our experience and we will be back with friends and family. Thank you for your hospitality! Also, the covid 19 protocol is handled exceptionally well. Thank you !!! read less

Almost everything else we've had has had excellent, and bold, flavors as well.

We ordered vegetarian food without onion and garlic and boy we were pleasantly surprised by the quality and flavor of the food. It seemed super fresh and without the bulk of artificial stuff that usually go into the curries to thickening them up.
The lassis come in a HUGE glass & remind you of being in Amritsar or a roadside Punjabi Dhaba.
If you’re in Albany or on your way further upstate and need a break for good sumptuous Indian food, I would surely recommend this place.
The staff is friendly. Ambiance is good and they have pretty good social distancing protocols.
The only down is the price- it’s a bit on the higher side. But the food, ambiance, cleanliness, and staff more than make up for it. read less
