We’re visiting my husband’s family and they often go to this lovely family owned Indian restaurant and have always been impressed by the service and food. Atmosphere was quiet on a Tuesday night. Much cuter inside than would be expected from the exterior location. We ordered the puffed rice (bhei poori) and asked for a recommendation for a second appetizer that would be mild. Our server suggested the tangi eggplant, which was so crunchy, like a cracker, with some tamarind sauce. The bhei poori is what we’d consider medium spice but probably mild to others. Lovely blend of flavors and textures. I eat primarily plant based so ordered the dal fry and he said they could make less spicy since it usually comes medium. They succeeded and there was just a small hint of heat which was perfect for me. We planned to share so after they chose tikka masala and a creamy veggie dish, we asked him for another suggestion between two options. He suggested the saag paneer, as providing a better range of colors and flavors. With a couple orders of naan, plus the lovely basmati rice, we could only eat half of the generous portions and brought the rest home. Everything was delicious and we particularly appreciated all the help in selecting off the extensive menu. Vegetarian options: As with most Indian food, it’s easy to find vegetarian options. Also several vegan options.
