Great samosas, great garlic naan, great mango lassi, and great papadams. Their chicken tikka masala is also excellent and the lunch portion is generous. Reason for the four star review is their chicken vindaloo. It really lacked the spice, tang, and the wow factor that I usually get from a great vindaloo. It’s my go to dish and this left me very disappointed. However, everything else was so good I’ll definitely be back and will try something else!

The best Indian we've had in Providence!

We travel often and rarely find such good flavor especially on the southern Indian dishes.

We ordered ahead and there was a mistake with the order, but they were able to rapidly fix it. I appreciate when a place isn't always perfect but is able to make it right. We'll be going back for sure. You'll be missing out if you don't try this place.

Great apps and bread.

The cold Samosa Chaat appetizer was so good. ($8.95). The sauce was so tasty and their samosas were creamy under a bed of that sauce and chickpeas.

Their Vegetable Samosa app ($6.95) comes with two large, warm and creamy pieces. I also tried for the first time, Traditional Alu Parantha ($5.50). It's whole wheat bread filled with I believe Samosa filling and griddled with what tasted like ghee. Amazing!!

Much better portions then their lunch menu. Last time I got their Chicken Korma lunch special and the amount of chicken they gave was disappointing. I got 3 regular sized cubes of chicken.

Lovely menu selections, convenient location. Noteworthy yummy sweets, and beautiful view of bridge and river nearby (i.e., India Point Park or Corliss Landing/Providence River Park)!

Average food, staff lacks interest. not allergy aware, told me they could not guarantee specific ingredient will not be in my food (lemon juice). when asked for a piece of onion, informed me it will cost $2.25 for "Indian salad". I have never ever been charged extra for a piece of onion in any Indian restaurant before this.

Indian restaurants are my favorite. This one was the worst I’ve been to in regards of the taste. The food has no spice, not even salt or pepper. Plus, it’s small portions and expensive. The place was nice, the waitress was nice, another employee too but unfortunately, I came here expecting to have, above all, good food.
