From the tandoor

Fresh ingredients, classic methods, real spice.

At the heart of our kitchen is the tandoor — the traditional clay oven that gives our naan, roti and tandoori their signature smoky char. We cook with fresh ingredients, classic methods and real home-style spice blends, so every dish tastes the way it should.

From butter chicken and lamb rogan josh to fresh-made dosa and chole bhature, it's honest Indian cooking, served generously.

Everyone at the table

Something for every guest.

Beyond North Indian classics, our menu stretches to South Indian dosa and tiffin and bold Indo-Chinese, with vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options, Halal-friendly dishes and Jain-style cooking on request.
