★★★★★ 5.0 Leah Lee · Dec 2025

Got a to go order and it was prepared really fast! Food is fantastic and perfectly spiced. Would recommend their chicken tikka masala and Chana masala! Vegetable biryani and garlic naan were also great.

★★★★★ 5.0 Neelam Sangwan · Jan 2026

It was one of the best Indian meals we’ve had in the US. We had chhole bhature, kheer (rice pudding) and tandoori chicken. Felt straight from home from our kitchen with perfect balance of spices. Kheer has such amazing rose flavor to it and the sweetness was perfect!!! Given a choice, I would go there everyday since it reminds me of home.

For goodness sake. This place is so dirty I'm amazed it hasn't been shut down. Everywhere you set your eyes there's grime, dust, grease and dirt. If the elderly man who owns the place is there then check out his hands and work shoes. They are encrusted with old food. 🤢. Someone here wrote a 1-star review and reported they saw a mouse in the dining area. The waiter didn't care. Of course not. 😵‍

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Laura Shore · Dec 2025

Ordered take out here for a friend's birthday party. Staff was very kind at pick up & gave us birthday candles so sweet! Unfortunately no rice was given with the 6 meals ordered 😞I guess it needs to be ordered separately? Which makes the cost of the meal more expensive (+ $4 rice). We were not told this at pickup & went home unaware with 5 watery dishes, with naan and an appetizer for $90. We ordered vegetarian meals none were labeled with name of dish. It was hard to tell what things were until we tried them. We we got 5 bowls of liquid and had to make our own rice at home so the experience for a dinner party was not great. Food did taste good though. We also ordered naan and vegi samosas which were delicious. I wish there was an option online for ordering the spice level! It was too spi

★★★★★ 5.0 Arshul Garg · Oct 2025

Ordered catering from here for a large event. Everything about it was excellent. The staff were very sweet and helpful in choosing dishes. They even helped me load it into my car! The food was absolutely delicious, best indian food I've had in the Berkeley so far. Not to mention, the portions were very generous, my guests happily took away many boxes of extra food because they just couldn't get enough. The restraunt itself has a wonderful and homely atmosphere. Tried their lunch buffet before too and it too is excellent and very worth the price. Dishes I recommend: Pakoras, Paneer Butter Masala, Mix Veg
