Built in an old house, this place offers superb northern indian food leaving your tummy trully contented. Catered from them for a couple of functions and guests loved their food. Make a reservation if your heading there in a group. Great ambience, however, parking is always a challenge during busy periods.

I really love the briyani here. Its really nice. This place is a great place to be. The environment is different from other Indian Shop. Build in an old house and there is separate family room. Great place.

this restaurant converted an old bungalow to restaurant. This made the restaurant has even more authentic atmosphere. Their menu doesn’t have picture to show you what the dish look like . If you are not too familiar with Indian food, the waiters can provide quite good explanation and recommendation. Try this restaurant if you want to have an old fashion... More
