★★★★★ 5.0 Thomas Clark Jr. · Mar 2026

We went for dinner before a show at MGM Music Hall and had a great time. The food was out fast and was delicious. We had the Podi wings, Tikka Tots, Smash Burger and Mango Lassi cheesecake and I would have all of them again. As you can tell by the Tikka Tots being on the men this is not traditional indian food and in my opinion that has lead to many of the lower reviews. Go in with the right understanding and you will have a positive experience.

Came here for lunch with a group of 8 and honestly, every dish hit the spot. Super flavorful, nothing felt off, and everyone at the table loved what they ordered. The place has a really cool, fancy vibe and the music just added to it. Ani was our host and he took good care of us throughout. Overall, this place didn’t disappoint at all — I’d definitely come back. Items Recommended: Keema Biriyani, Lamb Ghee Roast, OG Butter Chicken, Malabar Shrimp Curry, Butter Chicken Kathi Roll

★★★★☆ 4.0 Samuel Hernandez · Jan 2026

This place had a fun vibe and interesting menu. Food was good, although the ramen noodles were overcooked and naan was stale. The service, however, definitely needs work. Even though only half the tables were full at the time we came, it took over an hour for us to place our order and receive our food. One of our ordered items never came. The staff were all friendly and the food was good enough that I’d come back to give it another try in a few months.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Culinary Chronicles · Sep 2025

Recommend the gin drinks. The drinks were well made. The butter chicken was very sweet. The rumali roti and malabar paratha tasted like it was reheated. There is loud music playing so this place is better as a bar with snacks than a full course dining experience. Reservation is needed most times.

★★★★★ 5.0 Tidiane S · Dec 2025

This place is fantastic! The food is excellent. I tried the okra fries—they were perfectly soft and well-seasoned. I also had the biryani and the mango lassi cheesecake, which was absolutely outstanding. I’d definitely recommend it. The dessert alone is worth it. The atmosphere almost feels like a lounge or club, with great decor and the staff was very courteous and welcoming.
