Lovely selection of Indian food, friendly staff , excellent service, would visit again.
It has very beautiful ambience for family and also friends, food is very tasty and for South Indians they will prepare spicy foods and they treat the customers very nicely. I can suggest it's a one of the best Indian restaurant in Edinburgh. Mr. Das is the owner and he is very chill person.
Stopped in after reading all the reviews. Cosy little place with a friendly staff. The best Indian I think I've ever had! We had the chicken tandoori & tikka masala both were superb.
So many smells and flavours and textures that mix beautifully with each other; this is the best restaurant I've ever been to. The food is so fresh, and the service is so friendly. The maps on the tables are interesting, and the decorations are beautiful. I will definitely be coming back here until I've tried the whole menu, just spectacular!
My favourite Indian restaurant when visiting Edinburgh :) All the food is authentic, tasty and the naans are well made. Staff is nice. They had Bollywood music playing so I was transported back to India.
Doesn't look that inviting from the outside, the inside is outdated. The waitress is a bit slow they take their time. We when in there to try it out as it was near to our apartment, after reading some reviews on we thought why not. I like said the waitresses is slow and it's like a cafe than a restaurant as everything on the table look the same as eating in a cafe. We ordered a few dishes to share, when the food arrived . It's like WOW it was amazing it was so tasty better than most restaurants I been to. Everything we ordered was so nice. If u looking for the flavour of the food then here is a good place to eat. But if u want deco atmosphere and good service I wouldn't recommend it.
