Authentic cuisine! This is the real deal. They know what 'Indian Spice' level is. Lamb vindaloo is on point. Chicken Biriyana is HUGE... naan was great. A little pricey but quality and quantity checked out in the customers favor.
Absolutely recommend this place, will be coming back soon.

Ambiance is very laid back. Food and flavors are amazing!! Today we ordered the avocado samosas (I think I prefer the vegetable one with potatoes), lamb biryani, Manchurian chicken, garlic and cheese naan. The biryani was bursting with flavor and the lamb was very tender. The Manchurian chicken was cooked to perfection as it was crispy and yummy. Our server was a bit shy but very friendly.
Portions are huge and we had some leftover for dinner later.
We will definitely be coming back.

The food here is absolutely amazing! My husband and I came here and ordered the Lamb curry, the butter chicken masala, the vegetable samosas, butter naan bread, and a chai. Everything was 10/10, I have absolutely no complaints with the food, delicious. The employees were very polite and brought everything out quickly, the portions here are huge, my husband and I had tons of leftovers. The only thing I will say is I peeked behind me towards the workers and saw a bit of trash on the floor (a straw and a few bits of paper trash). They had just opened so it was clearly left behind from the night before. It wasn't busy at all since we had come in right when they opened and the only thing I saw them clean was a table in front of us. Other than that, we will definitely be coming back, this place is delicious

The portions are large and the food is absolutely delicious. If you like Indian food, this is a wonderful place to go in the Jacksonville area. The owner served our table and was such a kind guy, answering all questions we had. Delicious!! Hope they start doing a lunch buffet.
