What our guests are saying
Best Indian food I've had. The Tikka Masalas are especially good, paneer and chicken. Dipping the naan in the sauce is very tasty. Try the mango lassi, a delicious drink. I've tried their other dishes and have not been disappointed.
Demani T.
Great place for Kerala food! Everything we tried was tasty and full of authentic flavors. The spices were just right, and the food felt fresh and homemade. Service was friendly and the atmosphere was relaxed. Definitely a good spot if you’re craving Kerala-style Indian food. Would come back again! 😊
Amruta K.
Absolutely the best and most authentic Indian food in Chicagoland. The staff is super nice and welcoming, they stayed back for us even though we arrived almost at closing time - including the chef, who came and checked in personally. Highly recommend!
