Love this place for years. Love Indian food. Chicken is so juicy and the flavors are awesome. I don’t eat spicy food and if you tell them mild it’s perfect. San Mateo Location has the best hours, San Francisco hours suck.

Malai Kofta(2/5): the koftas are extremely dense and hard to eat. Paneer Makhni(4/5): Ok flavor. Large portion. The gravy is the same across the different entrees but the portion sizes are good

The buffet food was fresh lot of vegetarian options except for the BBQ tandori chicken it smelled odd. The owner tries his best to give good service but his expressions feel forced . The place is clean and spacious.

Ever since management has changed, the taste has gone downhill majorly. We used to come here for decades. This was such a good restaurant. But this time, none of the food was up to par. The naan was old and reheated. The lamb curry was...Read More
