Good Indian food is layers of flavor- the complexity of spices and textures is vastly underrated and perfection is often harder to achieve (from what I have noticed in the US.) For me, heat is a must, but it has to be the kind that causes just a hint of sweat, and a pleasant warmth on the tongue and the back of the throat. There are so many options here, for veg, non-veg and spice level preferences - and based on what I chose, a pork vindaloo with saag over basmati, they are all going to be good. This chef is taking exceptional care to make sure the food is of a quality you won’t expect of takeout. The pork was tender, spicy but not extremely so, and perfectly seasoned; the saag, very well blended and light, I’ve never had it this way, but it was almost like a sauce/condiment here, I wish I had more to make a better assessment, but it was tasty. Rice was fluffy and warm, and the toppings- a thinly sliced cabbage slaw, and crunchy, juicy cucumbers, offered a cooling balance to the meal. I opted for Bengali pickles to carry the heat - delicious, and tamarind and cilantro chutney, which I could’ve used more of, but only to assess. This is the Indian place you should frequent if you want something truly tasty.

Exceptional Indian food! The chicken was moist and tender, chick peas were creamy and flavorful, beets were cubed and tasty and the additional of sweet pickles were perfect topping! Special mention for the Masala Mac and Cheese which was exceptional! - it packs of nice warming sensation on the backend of ginger which is so unusual but oh so great! If you love heat and leave you must get it! It’s anything but ordinary
