Options are limited . We tried the dug leg confit, green butter chicken and aloo gnocchi in the entrees , they were all okay . The curry’s were all on the sweeter side . The garlic roomali roti was nice but didn’t have much garlic flavor to it at all. The oyster chat was interesting and we really liked the samosa turnover . Not sure if I’d go back

Great service and atmosphere. Tried the paneer turnovers and maple wings for an app. Wings were delicious but the turnovers were a little bland. For mains we had the aloo gnocci and biryani. Biryani was great with lots of spices, a good amount of meat which had a nice sweetness from the pineapple. The gnocci also had a lot of flavors which were quite strong but good. I can see some people maybe not liking the flavor profile as it is quite unique. Overall a good experience!
