"I was in Yuba City running some errands and planned to have lunch afterwards. As my two previous experiences with Indian cuisine were somewhat disappointing, I had decided to give it a pass, and go for something more familiar. However, the restaurant I had originally chosen was closed, which turned out to be a blessing in disguise. I hadn 't seen this restaurant in my previous searches, and found it completely by accident. It was conveniently located right on the main road, so I said, What the heck? I 'm in Yuba City, and I don 't come across Indian food often, so I decided to take the risk and pop in. We weren 't too familiar with Indian cuisine, so we were kind of just taking a shot in the dark. We ordered the Lamb Karahi and Chicken Curry Kebab, which both came with a side of rice, along with some garlic flatbread. Our biggest concern was that we 'd end up going home still feeling hungry, but the portions were large enough to go home with leftovers. We ordered both dishes mild . The spice level on the Chicken Curry was just right, but the Lamb Karahi was hotter than I expected. It was yummy, but a bit too hot to finish in one sitting. Thankfully, the woman who took our order, which I 'm assuming is the owner, was really friendly and asked us if we want takeout boxes, and even gave us a bag to put them in. She also brought us all our change, even though we wanted to leave it as a tip. In total, we paid just over $37.00 for everything, which I felt was reasonable by today 's standards. The price of each meat type is the same, no matter how you get it done, which I thought it was really nice. Some of the dishes are served in traditional Indian bowls, but the owner had no qualms about bringing us extra plates. The ambience of the place also wasn 't bad, though it looked like it was a lot nicer, before COVID. When you enter, go into the bar area to be seated, as the buffet area currently isn 't operating. I easily give this place a 5. There is very little to complain about, and I was pleased that I finally found an Indian place that does Indian food right. I guess third time really IS the charm."
