They are situated close to ODU and the parking space consists of metered parking spots, but these spots should be free on the weekends (though I would double check just to be sure). The portions were plenty to where we had leftovers to take home. Even the sampler appetizer we ordered was massive but I will say once you get through half of the sampler, the fried items start tasting about the same. The other thing was we had to wait for our food for a really long time even though there weren't a lot of people in the restaurant at the time. People who sat after us ended up getting served first. And since we didn't get an explanation, we can only assume that it might have had to do with the dishes we ordered that maybe needed to cook for longer. Either way, a great place to get some spice-filled food

I was extremely excited to hear there was a new place for Indian cuisine near me! I walked in with…read moreno expectations and was absolutely delighted with every aspect of me meal. I generally drink water but decided to try their Mango Lassi. It was so good that I ended up taking one to go as well. I was with a party of six so we got to try quite a few things on the menu. We started with chili paneer and chicken 555. The chili paneer was actually the best that I've had. The chicken 555 is a favorite of my husband's and he was extremely pleased. The waiter was brilliant with his recommendations. He sold us on a mango paneer tikka masala that everyone raved about. I went with the tradition paneer tikka masala and it was fantastic. My husband decided on the chicken 65 biryani and so we all tasted that as well. Great choice. The portions are great and perfectly balance enough of the protein with enough masala to dip the naan in. The ambiance has a great energy with friendly waiters and chefs. And great screen entertainment of traditional sports and music. I'm already planning my trip back.

And it also came with Lentil soup. Also ordered the "Chicken Tikka " on a sizzling platter. The presentation was nice, and the seasoning on the chicken was good, but the chicken itself was dry. I was pretty happy with what I ordered. I will come back sometime and try other dishes

After the drinks the food came out very quick, first were the Lamb Samosas which were very flavorful and the sauce included paired so well together. I ordered the Chicken Vindaloo as my main meal which was so tasty but also spicy!! Please choose your spice level carefully as I got a 3 for mine and was perfectly spicy but if you're not a spicy fan go lower.

Here's the deal: It's a small house turned restaurant. Parking is down the asphalt driveway on the side- park in back. Quaint. Small. Intimate. Great place for a date or to bring some friends. Approximately six or seven tables seating 2 - 8 people. At the time we went the restaurant had only been open a month and still putting the finishing touches on a few small things. Even so, it's a very comfortable place and our experience did not lack for anything. Service was fantastic. The thing that makes it great: the owner is serving and/ or cooking and he actually cares that you love your dining experience. Glasses were always full and we were waited on without the service becoming overbearing. No alcohol served while when we were there- might be getting an alcohol license yet- be sure to ask. Sodas, teas and of course water are currently available. Star of the show: THE FOOD. Absolutely amazing. Gobi Manchurian. Lightly breaded cauliflower, fried and served with a mild spicy chili sauce topped with cilantro and little ginger spears. The blend of flavors were amazing- and the fresh herbs put this dish over the top. Add this to your must try list. Chicken tikka masala: was made perfect. It's more tomato forward with just the right amount of cream. Spiced perfectly. Heat scale 1-5. I had a three to be in the safe side and it was a solid three. Feel confident ordering what you typically like for heat. The sauce is made with chunks of green pepper and onion which I prefer and believe it adds just the right flavor to finish the profile. Sauce was 5 stars- fantastic. Pair that with chicken properly marinated (many places do not do this) - no cutting corners here. The result was really one of, if not the best, tikka masala dishes I have had. Highly recommend this. Chicken Korma. Amazing balance of flavors without being overpowering. The cashew comes through perfectly with a buttery sauce, mild but hearty sauce. Perfect comfort food you will want to have stocked in your fridge. Chana masala. Chickpeas cooked perfectly with a light sauce made this a pleasant accompaniment to our entree. Garlic naan. Cooked perfect. It's slightly thicker than some restaurants but not too thick. Cooked to a crisp bottom paired with the butter garlic top. Pleasant texture and wonderful flavor. Don't miss Peppers. Absolutely worth the little drive off of the strip for an amazing Indian food experience. Can't recommend this place enough. See you there soon and happy eating. Cheers!

(Even if it's just a bench to sit on while waiting for your order) I tried the Butter Chicken, with a garlic naan & a cheese naan. It came with rice. Again...everything was delicious!
