Dum pukht lamb biryani, Butter chicken, Garlic naan
What makes it special: A contemporary Indian room where biryani and classics feel restaurant-driven, not takeout-coded.

Comfort Food Classics
A neighborhood Indian kitchen that hits best with curry-and-tandoor fundamentals and a steady, weeknight-friendly tempo. Order for contrast—one smoky tandoori item plus one gravy-based classic—so the table doesn’t taste like a single note.
Must-Try Dishes:
Chicken tikka masala, Lamb kali mirch, Tandoori mixed grill
What makes it special: A reliable curry-and-tandoor spot that stays consistent for repeat orders.
