    Only dipped my toe into the menu with a Mango Lassi, but it was delicious. I'll be back to try more soon.

    Fantastic food ! Expensive for the portions. Considering delivery if they allowed to add tip instead of preset.

    This is a neat family establishment. The mother is the chef and Khadija (forgive me if I botched…read morethe spelling) is the daughter and our server. They were so welcoming. I am still learning about middle eastern cuisine so the chef described some entrees. I told her about a Pakistani dish I really enjoyed and she made me a similar chicken dish that isn't even on the menu! What I love about middle eastern food is that it is so fragrant and a full scale sensory overload. It looks, smells and tastes all at once. Khadija was adorable and very outgoing. I was super impressed by the whole vibe. All of the other patrons were probably far more familiar with the cuisine, but we felt welcome and were so honored that they presented something off the menu for me. I plan to try the regular menu dishes next time. The naan is outstanding, too.

    I came here during Covid and was unable to get food as it was to go preorders. For whatever reason…read moreI never made it back. I happen to pass it the other day and put it in my Yelp want to go list. This morning I'm like what am I in the mood for and Indian food came to mind. I went walk through Yelp & this came up for Indian Food. Now it is a combined international food experience a blend of middle eastern and Indian. I did the buffet and it did not disappoint. Curries, naan, salad bar, and a juice buffet also. The juice buffet won me fresh and great choices cucumber lime mint, watermelon mixed with something, & mango mixed with something (didn't matter it was liquid crack as they all were good). Fluffy Grandma recommends.

    I've been twice now, so it's official--this place has me in a chokehold…read more Tucked away in North Scottsdale, it's quiet, chic, intimate, and both times I've visited, the restaurant has been comfortably full. Everything is clean and well-kept, bathrooms included. The chicken tikka masala is phenomenal--tender chicken in a perfectly spiced, flavor-packed sauce. The vegetable samosas are some of the best I've ever had, especially with their mint chutney, which deserves its own round of applause. I got a little excited and ate one samosa before remembering I needed a picture. Thankfully, I saved one for Yelp. And the garlic naan?! Crispy around the edges, soft and perfectly chewy, loaded with garlic and cilantro. I actually ate the leftovers the NEXT DAY. If you know me, that carries significant weight because I do not do leftovers. I literally carried that naan around until every last piece was gone. The people running the restaurant are incredibly kind and welcoming, and the service has been wonderful both visits. I've tried a LOT of Indian food, and this is easily one of my favorites. Anytime I'm back in Scottsdale, I'm coming back. The naan and mint chutney alone have secured my return.

    The people here are so friendly and nice! Feels like a warm neighborhood restaurant…read more But, I have never had Indian food prepared with so much oil. So much so that I will be going to other restaurants from now on. Also, I did not receive the naan in my to go bag that I ordered and paid for. Sorry! I wanted to love it.
