    Everything, but especially the chicken tikka masala. I come here from NYC just for this place, best Indian restaurant I've had. Are able to make it spicy without sacrificing flavor.

    Delicious food, excellent service & friendly staff. The place isn't big, so make a reservation. It was packed at dinner time! We had to wait 40 min before we got seated, but it was worth the wait!

    Their Chicken tikka masala and aloo naan are great. Definitely the best Indian restaurant in Allston / Brighton / Brookline and better, in my humble opinion than Punjabi Daba in Inman.

    Everything off the vegetarian menu is amazing, especially the paneer. Also go before 3pm for the lunch prices, it's unbeatable.

    The methi matar malai is absolutely phenomenal. Stop by during lunch and it's criminally inexpensive, too!

    Everything is delicious. Fills up quickly so get there on the early side. I'll definitely be back.

    I was pleasantly surprised- nice people good food, though clearly American palates are soft as the hot wasn’t even a proper British mild - but over all 👍

    start with naan and vegetable samoas and round it out with orders of the tikka masala and lamb curry (comes with rice). perfect meal for two.

    You could eat just the warm and puffy nan with condiments and be satisfied. But if you eat on, try the vegetable pakora, lentil soup, chicken korma, tandoori shrimp, baingan bhartha, and goat curry. Read more

    Used grubhub to order delivery. The chicken tikka masala was very good. Could taste the butter which is what it should be like.

    Baingan bhartha is so good. Spice level is perfect. Hot but won't prevent you from enjoying your meal.
