By far one of the best hidden gems. The chef was so kind and made our experience one to remember. He was able to cater to our specific needs and wants. As new comers to Indian food, the chef and his colleague made sure we were comfortable and enjoyed every bite. I would recommend this place to anyone

Thank you so much, Caitlin — this truly means a lot to us. It was such a pleasure welcoming you and being part of your introduction to Indian food. We never take it lightly when someone is trying a cuisine that’s new to them, and knowing you felt comfortable, cared for, and genuinely enjoyed the experience makes us incredibly happy. That’s exactly what we hope for at every table. Thank you for your trust, your openness, and your kind words. We’d love to welcome you back anytime — there’s still so much more to explore when you’re ready.

The head chef/owner came to our table to talk about his restaurant and the food. Incredible service and all items we ordered were delicious. Will definitely return. One note - due to the extreme cold weather, you need to use the side door (to keep the main door closed and the dining area warm) which isn't super obvious to a first time visitor. It feels like you might be going into an apartment, but it's the restaurant!

Thank you so much, Sarah — we really appreciate you taking the time to share this. It means a lot to know you enjoyed both the food and the conversation with Chef Simar; those moments at the table are a big part of why we do what we do. And thank you as well for the thoughtful note about the entrance. You’re absolutely right — during extreme cold spells we keep the main door closed to preserve warmth in the dining room, and we know the side entrance can feel a bit confusing the first time. We’re actively working on making that clearer for future guests, especially those visiting us for the first time. We truly appreciate your understanding and your kindness, and we look forward to welcoming you back again very soon.

Owner was super nice; came up to our table to suggest items on the menu and he even went off script and prepared us a dish from the next seasonal rotation!

Thank you so much, Jérémie! We’re really glad you enjoyed the experience — Chef Simar loves going a little off-script when inspiration strikes, especially when guests are open to trying something new. It makes those evenings extra special for us too. Hope to welcome you back soon for more surprises from the kitchen!

Had an amazing meal here tonight. So nice for the chef to come to each table and speak to the dishes and ask if we had questions. The food itself was sublime. The best chicken tiki masala we’ve ever had and the agneau nihari melted in your mouth. A small place so make a reservation! What a way to kick off the new year.

Thank you so much, Andrew! We’re thrilled you chose to kick off the new year with us — what a lovely way to start it. Chef Simar truly enjoys connecting with guests and sharing the stories behind each dish, so it means a lot that you appreciated that personal touch. We’re especially happy to hear the chicken tikka masala and agneau nihari stood out — those are dishes we take great pride in. Thanks as well for the reservation tip (always wise in our little space!). We hope to welcome you back again soon for another memorable meal.
