Blink and you'll miss this unassuming place -- and boy will that be a mistake!…read more We walked in and I thought, "Okay" -- nothing fancy, although fancy doesn't necessarily mean great food. Got that right! Cause the food here was EXCELLENT. Shared garlic naan -- yes, some are better than others, and this place's was really good. Asked for recommendations from the person working at the front and got the chicken korma at her suggestion; highly recommend! We also had dal and sag paneer, as well as something with eggplant that I don't recall, but that I also enjoyed. All dishes come with a small side of rice. But if you don't do heat, I'd suggest mild -- or, as some restaurants sometimes do, even "no spice." We ordered our food medium spicy -- if you're a spice person, that should be enough, friend. It definitely made me pay attention, but the heat didn't linger on after the meal. The flavor, however, did. Definitely look forward to returning!

The setup is simple and casual, with just a few outdoor tables, but it works well for a quick bite. We ordered the spring rolls, chicken pakora, and the noodle burger. The spring rolls were the highlight for me--they reminded me of the street-style spring rolls I used to have in India. We actually enjoyed them so much that we ordered a second serving. The chicken pakora was good, with a flavorful batter seasoned with Indian spices. The chutneys were excellent, especially the green mint chutney. The noodle burger was decent. It was a little soggy, although that may have been because it sat for a bit before we ate it. The owner/chef mentioned they're currently trying out new buns, so that could have contributed as well. Also get paneer kathi roll to go- amazing roll, im not a fan of kathi rolls but this was amazing, chowmein was okish Overall, the food was tasty, reasonably priced, and worth trying. The staff were incredibly friendly and sweet, and the service was surprisingly fast. We only waited about 10 minutes, and everything was made fresh. Definitely give this place a try if you're in the area!

I've been a patron of this place for a year now and it's consistently delicious with high quality food and excellent service both in person and take away. Of note, the lam is always tender, which is hard to do, and the spice is always giving!! I like spicy and they don't hold back when requested!! The last time I had spicy like this was in the country of Bhutan!! I LOOOOOVE their samosas (flavorful potatos wrapped in a flakey crust coated in fine salt is out of this world), Baigan Bhartha (tender spicy eggplant), chicken apricot (I dig sweet and savory with a kick), vegetable curry and lamb tikka masala. Sometimes I go for medium spice and other times extra spicy. I'm a person who tends to order something different to taste the menu but it's been hard to do when they make the first thing you order epic! Truly this is a wonderful restaurant, dine in or take out and so worth the trip every time. Warning: will ruin other restaurants for you they're that good! Forever a patron.

The restaurant is inside an old train car which makes the whole experience feel extra cozy and unique. The aesthetic is absolutely adorable and the delicious smell of the food filled the air the second we walked in. I was already excited to sit down and eat. We started with the lentil soup and it was SO good, especially on a rainy day. Warm, comforting, and full of flavor. We also ordered the aloo gobi and added tofu which was absolutely delicious. This is honestly some of the best Himalayan and Nepalese food I've had in a long time. Since then, I've gone back and tried the garlic cheese naan filled with chicken. It was yummy but could have used a bit more flavor on its own. Dipping it into the aloo gobi though? Perfect combination. Super friendly staff, excellent service, cozy atmosphere, and flavorful comforting food. Definitely adding this spot into the regular rotation.

Dishes like clay oven specialties, several types of curries, (seafood, chicken, goat, lamb), momos, biryani, soup and even Himalayan fried noodles and kabobs. Express Lunch menu (menu notes which items are gluten free and vegan), includes lentil soup, salad, butter naan and choice of white or brown rice. We really appreciated the brown rice option. Chicken tika masala - tandoori roasted chicken simmered in a mild creamy sauce. Our sweet server (owner?) mentioned that about 95% of the people love this dish and I am definitely in that group. Wonderful flavors and generous amount of tender chicken. Tofu, kale & potato curry - ingredients all simmered with basil and coconut milk. Very flavorful and seemed healthy. My husband would definitely order again. Our server was friendly, caring and was always smiling. Two servers were handling the entire dining room plus the outdoor diners and they were seamless in their efforts. Our server had recommended the tika masala to me and she was curious what I thought of it. I would order it again tomorrow! The interior is decorated comfortably. Located across the street from the town green. A lovely and enjoyable first time dining experience here.

Inside the restaurant there is a calming feeling as they were playing slow Hindu chanting music low on their sound system. The first server We began with was very young and maybe learning the menu still as he was really not that good at answering questions on the menu. As soon as we checked in on Yelp, suddenly service picked up. Another more experienced server brought us first, hand towels to wipe out hands (a nice touch, but the towels were almost cold when he brought them, was it an after thought?); and he also brought us complimentary cups of dal that were very tasty. The dishes we got were saag lamb, butter chicken, and organic channa masala, and garlic buttered Naan. Had our first server known how to describe menu better we may have chosen a few different items. He did recommend the butter chicken as one of his favorite so that's why we got it as we often enjoy it other places as well. It was very good, a classic with great sauce, probably the favorite dish. The saag lamb was good too, but we almost got the patak lamb, similar sounding dish but maybe creamier/ other veggie too? But our first server could not really describe difference well. I'm thinking we may have enjoyed the other dish better than saag lamb which was good, but felt the spinach was extremely over cooked, and so finely chopped almost like it was highly minced or powdered? But it was flavorful. The Channa Masala was on the dry side. We we're trying to decide on a saucy vegetable dish and we asked about this dish because we liked that it said organic. That same first server said it was saucy, but not that saucy. Each dish comes with your choice of white or brown rice, or steamed veggies. Two dishes we got brown rice with, and the third we got steamed veggies because we thought there would be more sauce overall to add them too. The rice was allot ( took quite a bit home); the veggies were this nice mix, but so boring with no taste, and what a waste. The veggies even had water floating in bottom of dish. It would be so much nicer if there were an option to have these lightly stirfried with a little flavor as an option ( they were completely bland) , and there was really not enough saucy stuff to add them to so only partially eaten, left remaining there on table instead of taking home with other stuff. We asked for a sample of their side sauces and we got a tiny (like a tablespoon each?) 3 dish sampling of their very tasty homemade mango sauce, tart and tangy cilantro mint sauce, and some sweeter tamarind sauce. But they were very tiny amounts. The Naan was light and crisp, very nice, but could barely taste garlic butter. We asked for our dishes to be medium heat and it was fairly mild for us still, but i guess with American palate, spicy can be relative. But oh well. We also had cups of chai (under $5.00) that had refills, and a glass of house white wine ( Murphy good Sauvignon Blanc was only $8.00 so that was a deal). I'm giving 4 stars for their efforts, but hope they read this so they can improve a few things.

My favorites are the aloo gobi - you can adjust the spice level when you order and it is so flavorful. Peas Pulao is perfectly cooked and spiced rice with peas - delicious. Chickpeas salad with chopped onions, tomato and cilantro - chickpeas have just the right texture, not rock hard, not mushy! Add a bit of tamarind and mint sauce too! The chicken pakora, samosas and the chaat papri are three of the best ways to start a meal. Portion sizes are good and the food is packaged well for delivery. All in all A+ recommended!

Not the end of the world but surprising. Pacing was a big problem. We got a plate of sliced vegetables as a starter as none of the mains come with sides. That came out quite quickly. Each of the four of us ordered a separate main and two rice dishes to share. I got my sizzling plate of minced lamb skewers 10 minutes later but it was another 5 minutes before the second plate came out, sizzling lamb "chops" that were not really chops but more like ribs or lamb lollipops. A few more minutes passed and the small portion of four Garlic Naan slices came out. Another two minutes and the first Lamb Vindaloo main came out followed a few minutes later by one rice dish and then a few minutes for the final Vindaloo entree to come out and then a minute later the second rice dish. This really chopped up the meal and made things a bit awkward. The food once it arrive was good, as mentioned, but we should have ordered entrees to share as the pacing was terrible and a 10+ minute wait from entree number one to entree number four is not good. Nice enough space, clean, decent service, very good prices and easy parking with no reservations needed on a Friday night. If they got a beer/wine license and improved the pacing I think they might survive in Sonoma County.
