"A local gem with a brilliant atmosphere."
"A local gem tucked away with a brilliant atmosphere. The Tandoori Lamb Chops were the best I've had — easily the finest in town."

"Delicious and entirely different food. The Choori Chaat is a revelation, and the service walks the perfect line — attentive but never overbearing."
