"First timer here. The food is very delicious. I recommend the shrimp fried rice and chicken masala with #1 pan bread. It is full of flavor and can taste the different spices. However, the portions are small and price is in the expensive side. It did not fill me up."

"great experience with taking out the service has been since the beginning of the introduction including automatic tip (15% on all parties. I notice that the server is less attentive."

"Had a large group on Sunday for brunch and it seemed there was only one persons working (taking table orders, making drinks at the bar and bussing table). Took for ever to get our drinks and even more so for the food. Having said that the food was great and I have no complaints there but it seemed like it was amateur hour on the service side. Would I go back and give it another chance... Maybe. Would I recommend to a friend, not a chance."

"my waiter gave me the confidence to try several new dishes. so I tried to feed the vegetable pakora. I decided to try the mushroom bhoona and ordered my favorite saag when the escape. I love my saag level. I was in restaurants that insist that my saag contains at least one of the usual ingredients: paneer, aloo and sometimes chana, which I then painfully get out of my saag. one of my raw food cookers, originally from india, had a bio restaurant. she told me why they committed me to trembling my saag. if that happens, I'll go up and never leave the restaurant back. but in this restaurant my waiter had no problem to submit my request at the place. the vegetable pakora first arrived. I really liked it. but there were the tamarind sauce and green chili chutney that the pakora really made excellent. when my man came to a call to eat his pakora, it was cold (he hates cold food.) but my man liked this cold pakora so much, he always tried to ask me about it while he breeds them at once down he usually eats it and asks for a question. After the pakora was completed, however, he immediately announced to order the pakora again at our next visit. the mushroom bhoona and the saag came together. both my man and I were very impressed by these exotic aromes. when the rice arrived that was taken up with the bhoona, we had most bhoona and saag eaten. my man is a rice fan, so he can just sit and eat rice himself if necessary. I usually do not eat white basmati rice. wild rice, brown or black rice. but when they brought out these basmati, I had to try. it had interesting spots of seasoning in it. after a bite I sat and ate the half of the plate with the rest of my saag. I mentioned my waiter how much I liked the basmati. he explained all the preparations that go into making this special dish. it was quite impressive and he seemed very pleased to hear that I liked it so much. I hope he shared my compliment with the kitchen. I liked the way our waiter observed our food needs again and again when he came past our table. I noticed he didn't want to interrupt our dinner. but I knew if I looked at him, he would have come directly to our table if we needed something. that is the sign of a sophisticated waiter for me. a trait that I rarely see more in restaurant waitstaff. at the end of our meal our waiter offered us a free sample of the gulab jamun desserts. After he described this, I know I didn't order it alone. but we still tried. my man just yelled at me when I tasted this overly sweet dessert. he had observed my expression when I tasted him and offered me the other half of his rehearsal. it didn't come surprised when I told him that the next time we came, I'd order the gulab jamun dessert. I asked him how he knew I liked it. apparently it was the ankle in my eyes when I took my first bite that there was gone. so, now it is obvious that we already planned our return to this restaurant on our next trip to fresno. not only eating is very nice, but our waiter has made me feel that I will not forget. so it's easy to forgive the little girl that went into mine when I first sat and my man was outside on a call. they rode on an unusually large cracker that was in her hand and from a strange background she jumped in and sat on the stand for several minutes. it seemed completely unlikely for the difference between a customer and an extended family. it was so strange, it was almost cute. but that immediately tells me that this flawless crew is family owned. but what is really etched in my mind, in the last moments of this culinary experience, was the hectic attempt of the owner. our waiter was not far behind the owner who ran into our car with my mobile phone charger base. it had fallen out of my handbag in our stand. I am so grateful to this gracious owner and my waiter that he gave it back to me before we get away. I would never have been able to complete my work projects, emails and text messages without my cell charger base. the demanding waiter skills of our waiter, combined with my saag accommodation and the desperate attempt by the owner to return my cell charger base, shows me that it is not by chance that this restaurant serves such fine quality meals. this is the first time that my man and I plan our next visit in a restaurant on the APPETIZER course! So, for a high quality north indian restaurant with excellent eating and excellent service, I recommend you to make their first stop in tandoori night!"

"Good Indian food. I recommend call them directly to order delivery or preferably eat at the restaurant. Chicken Tikka and Yellow Dal very nicely done. I called them and ordered. As close as possible (in the US to get) authentic Indian food at decent prices. Owner was courteous and went out of the way to ensure we got hot food delivered and followed every possible request on spices etc. Definitely ordering again."

"We got garlic naan with mint chutney, boti tikka masala (lamb), chicken tikka masala. The customer service, environment, and food d wonderful as always. I have visited this restaurant probably forty times altogether. The food is always consistent day or night. Buffet is served only parts of the days, and even that is very well maintained."

"On October 11, 2022, I ordered 9 items for lunch. After spending $130.48 on food, I was really disappointed if the food was not delicious. The Chana Saag did not taste like the authentic Mother Paneer brand, the Vegetable Jhalfrezi had too much salt, and the Yellow Dal Tadka needed to be tasted again for freshness. The Naans, Kulcha, and Roti were all made freshly, but the Roti was as hard as cardboard. It was a very bad experience, as restaurants rely on the credibility of their food quality."

"I've eaten there a few times and it was always top notch. I went to the buffet with my boys yesterday and everything tasted amazing AND the lamb curry had a nice extra kick to it. Friendly staff as well. I could have eaten a bucket of the tandoori chicken as well."

"Delicious food, impeccable service, and a back room that was perfect for a group of 22 British expats who know/miss a good curry. Our thanks to Sunny and team for a perfect night out. We appreciate that food is cooked to order and served to preference, which provided time to enjoy your lovely starters over conversation. Thank you for permitting us to linger (pre and post meal) at the bar. We'll definitely return to our neighbourhood favourite!"
