UPDATE: I returned for yet another fantastic experience at Saffron on 27 Jun 2025. Although I didn't get to experience the newly-remodeled bar area called, "Mission Control," I got to walk around it and boy, the owners did a remarkable job! My wife and I ordered the Lamb Kadai Curry, Chicken Rogan Josh, Lamb Samosa, Garlic Naan, Mixed Vegetable Salad, Tandoori Wings, and Frankie Naan. Everything was prepared with high quality - I had zero issues or complaints. Our server, Carolyn, did an outstanding job as well. I am still highly recommending this restaurant to everyone! Also added updated photos to this review. ---------------------------------------- I remember trying this place for the first time back in 21 Aug 2015, and since that visit, I've never had the opportunity to revisit this restaurant again, but have been wanting to for quite some time. After eight years, my wife and I finally returned to this restaurant on 22 Oct 2023 and am glad that we did. When we walked in, I noticed that the restaurant was partially under construction (mainly the bar area). I had the opportunity to talk to one of the staff members and was informed that the project should be completed soon. I'm definitely returning when the project is complete so I can see the finished product and enjoy this restaurant's food again. Speaking of the food... We ended up ordering the Tandoori Wings, Garlic Naan, Mixed Saffron Platter, and Kadai Curry w/Chicken. Although I can't remember what we ordered during our 2015 visit, I can assure you that I have not experienced any poor quality food here (hence our return to this exceptional restaurant). We normally order spice level five for everything and I feel that it is a perfect heat level since I've noticed that as I got older, my body doesn't agree with really spicy food. The flavor profile of their curry is so remarkable and leaves you wanting more and more until you're stuffed. The service was extraordinary! Our server (I think her name is Marina), and other employees in the restaurant that were assisting with bringing the food out and removing dirty dishes from our table, were very friendly and attentive. The price-to-quantity/quality ratio was superb and I really enjoy how this restaurant supports the men and women of the Armed Forces to include its Veterans - it's much appreciated! If you haven't been to this restaurant, you really need to take the time to swing by. I highly recommend this place to everyone.

My favorite restaurant hands down! The food is incredible., The service is incredible, the owner and staff are so kind and welcoming. You feel like family. I highly suggest visiting this place and also visiting Mission Control for a good drink! - Karla & Zander :)

Food has been great everytime I've eaten here. The staff is always friendly and attentive. Everything always looks clean. I have no complaints whatsoever. I have recommended this restaurant to all of my friends

I’ve been a loyal customer for a few years and always appreciated the food. Recently, though, the service has noticeably declined — often just one person handling all the tables, which leads to long delays. It seems the owner may be focused on other ventures, like the new bar Mission Control next door. During our most recent visit, we also noticed a “B” health rating posted, which was disappointing. While the food has been good in the past, the overall experience has declined enough and with the kitchen not being of an acceptable standard, it's 'game over' for me.

Update: I went again 3 times, and the service was terrible every time. They must have changed the chef because items that were good before were overcooked and rubbery. Tried 10 more items and can say with certainty this is not the indian place for my monthly craving. Absolutely will not be back! great 5 🌟 plus: there were no people in the restaurant at all. Super nice and quiet. The good 5/5 the Naan was delightful and would definitely order again The okay 4/5: the Tikka Masala and the rice. Good, but for the price, it's definitely not great. The mid 3/5: the okra dish could have definitely been better. Will not order again. Honorable mentions server was decent, but as we were only people in restaurant. She definitely came around too much. Tldr: pricey but overall decent will try more dishes next time.

I’ve been coming here often on for several years. We used to come three or four times a month. Lately in the past year, I only come when my girlfriend drags me here against my well. The owner is very unfriendly and strikes me as a nasty person. No concern for customer service or developing a steady clientele. The food quality has gone downhill and is nowhere near as good as it used to be and it’s expensive for mid-grade food. His alcohol costs are very high. I will not be returning ever. there are too many amazing restaurants in this town to deal with this kind of apathy.

Ordered for pickup which told me it would be ready by 6pm. I arrived at 6pm and they didn’t even start making it. Then the host kept telling me it would be out in a “few minutes”. Waited for 20 minutes and they brought the food out like nothing happened. Like they didn’t waste my time. The restaurant was empty so it’s not like they were slammed with business. Apparently my time is not worth as much as theirs.

Very pleasant dining experience in addition to the food! They didn't compromise to simplify their menu considering how complex the dishes are. All the different curry have a spice level from 1-10 and I think, as a moderate spicy taster, 6 is plenty to taste but not be overwhelmed.

It's been difficult to find good Indian food in Las Vegas but Saffron was pretty solid. Onion pakoras - I don't get this much but was really impressed. Nice balance of seasonings Samosas chaat - Not bad but just ok Chicken korma - Good flavors and good portions. Got 8/10 spicy which was closer to mild-moderate spicy personally. This is a place where I'd definitely recommend going more aggressive on spice levels if you can handle it Naan - They nail the texture here. So fluffy and soft. My favorite naan in Vegas so far Unfortunately I don't frequent the Northwest area often but they were good enough for me to come back when I'm back in the area.

Saffron Flavors was once known to loudly display its political leanings but independent voters like myself can't be influenced by either side, so the only real allegiance I ever have is to an empty stomach. Indian entrees should always come with bread - Garlic roti, Onion naan, and Paratha (GOP?) are all excellent. Roti vs. Naan vs. Paratha...roti is unleavened, naan uses yeast which makes it more soft and pillowy, while paratha is also unleavened but stuffed with a thin layer of potato. There's no debate, be sure to get the Tandoori platter. It's a nice variety of shrimp, chicken, and Seekh kebab lamb bites marinated with yogurt and spices on a bed of grilled onion and peppers, pairing well with Basmati rice. Try the outstanding grilled Tandoori wings which are tender, delicious, and steeped in a very liberal amount of spicy flavors. Yes very liberal, so doubtful they were right wings. I've also ordered a Madras and Ginger Ale (MAGA?) combo at lunchtime. Madras chicken is a superb entree with coconut and spices, similar to curry but with hot peppers and paprika that give it a strong, zesty flavor. The 60s song Mellow Yellow by Donovan began with, "I'm just mad about Saffron, a-Saffron's mad about me" and if you enjoy authentic Indian food, you'll also be mad about Saffron Flavors. So go there to stuff your face (not the ballot box) and you'll find that these folks know how to do authentic Indian food right. Extremely right. Maybe even far right.

Yummy... my go to is always the chicken biryani whenever I get Indian food. This one was really good because it didn't have all those extra seeds and their cheese naan really delicious. The food presentation was clean as well very yummy. It lasted me three meals. I recommend eating here...

I ordered here when my other spot was not accepting orders. Their flavors are more garam masala heavy but still incredible! The veggie samosas cannot be touched, the best I've had here by far.

When I'm craving Indian food, I go to Saffron. This restaurant has been here for years, and it's often recognized by many locals. I've been a longtime patron, and I'm glad that they've managed to survive the pandemic. Over the years, I've mainly ordered takeout but I've had the opportunity to dine in several times. Most recently, I dined in with my husband and noticed that they've renovated the dining area and bathrooms. How's their food? Well, there's a reason why they've been here for over 13 years. My faves include the following items: Garlic naan: freshly made, garlicky, and it serves as an alternative utensil to scoop up your curry. Biryani (vegetable & chicken): fluffy basmati rice with a good amount of spiciness and served with a creamy yogurt sauce. Malai Kofta: cheese "meatballs" served with a flavorful and rich curry sauce. Tadka Dal: Blended lentils with a spicy kick. They've been late (20-30+ min) with my pick-up orders in the past, but I haven't experienced any issues during my recent visits.

Saffron Flavors Of India is located in North/West Las Vegas. This is a full service restaurant that also offers wine. We started out by sharing the Gobi Manchurian (cauliflower) and Frankie Naan (vegetarian Indian stuffed pizza). The Frankie Naan was tasty. The cauliflower was in a sweet and spicy sauce. We also shared the Goan Fish Curry and the Makhani Chicken. We ordered 7 out of 10 for heat level. The #7 is just above mild here. We both liked the Makhani Chicken the best. The sauce with fragrant and balanced and the chicken was moist. The Goan Fish Curry's sauce dominate flavor was ginger. I would recommend other proteins before ordering fish here. Service was on point and friendly. Three stars is a positive review on Yelp and translates to A-OK.

First time trying Indian food, and this place was delicious! We got an order delivered right when they opened, and everything arrived still warm. We got the vegetable samosas, which were large in size & packed with flavor. It came with 2 sauces, both were unique flavors but went so well with the samosa flavor. Vegetable Briyani rice was amazing, such a large portion & packet with flavor. I could eat that by itself! The butter chicken was so tender & the broth was thick & rich. The Saffron platter had the perfect assortment of meats, my favorite was the lamb. The garlic naan was delicious, we also got a Frankie naan, which wasn't my favorite but still good, especially for those who like pesto. The beet salad was a very new combination for me, it was on the sweeter side but the crunch texture of the beets & the feta worked well together. I definitely want to visit again to try other menu items, highly recommend giving this place a try!

Never in a million years would I eat Indian food, but we have these incredible friends that swore by this place. YOU GUYS!!! I did it, I tried it!!! This place is literally INCREDIBLE! I mean you name it, the flavors melt in your mouth. I'm still not a curry fan, but there were so many other mouthwatering options. And the mood was so comforting. The lighting, the colors, the decor all on point. And the service, ahhhhhmazing. I literally cannot wait to come back!! Thank you everyone for making our first experience everything I never knew Indian could be. You definitely have new regulars here!!!

Came here for lunch and they have a good selection of items to choose from. We could not order a mixed drink because no bartender was on duty. The staff were incredibly friendly and nice but there were only two of them so service was a touch slow. We ordered the garlic naan for our appetizer which was delicious! For our mains I had the tandoori chicken bone in spice level 8 and yum! Spouse had tikka basil chicken spice level 7 and yum. Both chicken dishes were flavorful and moist. We also shared an order of basmati rice. Just be sure to check the hours they are open before going.

Indian food is one of my favorites, although for those of us in North West Vegas the options are fairly limited without going further afield, so I'm glad to have this somewhat nearby. I've only ever had takeout or delivery from here, so cannot speak about the in restaurant experience, but I can say I've never had any issues with an order. A regular Indian staple is Chicken Tikka Masala, and they have a solid version of that dish. I also enjoy the Lamb Madras, but my favorite dish here is the Korma, especially vegetable and their Chana Masala is very good as well. Overall the food is really good, very tasty with good flavors, so if you're a fan of Indian and/or live in the area I highly recommend giving Saffron a try.

Tried the tikka masala, butter chicken, Frankie naan (cheese stuffed wit pesto and garlic) and the regular cheese stuffed naan. Food was delish a must try. Small quaint dinning room- yet it is a large space. Service was prompt, courteous and attentive. Alcohol (specialty drinks and wine) menu is VERY limited.

The food here was okay, I got chicken Tikka Masala, a noddle dish and naan. For my 3 items it was 56. I loved the noodles they were so delicious and flavorful, I wasn't the biggest fan of the Tikka Masala and found the portion to be small for the price. I ordered online and when I got there I went inside and somebody told we to go wait in my car and they would bring the food out. When I got to the restaurant it was about 30 minutes after I placed my order and was waiting in my car an additional 25 after 25 minutes I called and asked about my food and they ended up bringing it out a few minutes after.

8-18-2024 This is the only place we've had Indian food for two years. We won't go back. Tonight we waited 45 minutes to get our food. There were six or seven guests when we arrived. Our order was taken pretty quickly and everything seemed fine. Then we waited and waited. After 20+ minutes our samosas finally arrived. It was another 25 minutes before we received our entrees. I believe it would have even longer if I didn't ask about our food. The reason I was given for the long wait was because of so many to go orders. I have never been to a restaurant where a sitting guest is made to wait because of orders to go. If they told me up front our order would take longer because of how busy the kitchen was with take outs I would have at least had an option to stay or go somewhere else. The food we ordered was good but definitely not worth the time we waited for it. It may be a bit harsh but customer service is very important to me and I feel they dropped the ball big time. This is Las Vegas and in this town we have so many options for Indian food. We had been to several other Indian restaurants before we decided on this one. All were good but we chose Saffron. I will go to another Indian restaurant in the future.

Great place for Indian! Got the butter chicken curry and naan bread and it was delicious! Server was friendly and the food came out quickly. Only issues had was they were out of any specialty drink and then the bottle of wine I decided to go with instead they were out of as well.

The food has improved at this restaurant, but they need to get the spice levels right. Sometimes it's on point, other times they miss it completely. I ordered the Butter Chicken yesterday, spice level 4. What I received was a spice level 1. It was a to-go order so I couldn't tell them right away. I was very disappointed. Please, Saffron, do better.

I've never had Indian food aside from naan so I have nothing to compare it to. Atmosphere was nice. Our server was amazing and had a lot of patience. I was unsure of tonight's dinner and she was very kind to explain what everything was and given recommendations. Did I like it? Yes, it's something different. The chicken was moist and the thing that starts with a b was full of flavor. I wanted to see what a 10 spice was like we did a 5 on our dishes and it's a sneaky spice that slowly accumulates. She gave us more "spice" in a green Chilé type resembles. It was good my Hispanic friend was sweating and so was my husband. Me not so much but I liked the flavor! I'd like to see what a 10 hot is like there! Overall great experience, will we be back? Probably!

This is our favorite place to get some wicked good Indian Cuisine! I have yet to have a bad experience here and we have been going for a few years. My 5 year old son even liked the place! It is the closest thing to be in India I found and I use to work in India a lot. The service is always a bit slow but they are usually pretty busy. It's nothing that causes issue. It's actually nice to eat with a waiter helicoptering over you. The restaurant is very comfortable gives you a strange throwback to India but is still very local feeling. They just upgraded their bar area and I can't wait to go without the kids and try it out. I really do recommend this spot for good authentic Indian food. Try it and see what I'm talking about!!!

I was not impressed with this place it didn't start off well as I walked in we wanted to do our gender reveal dinner for my daughter and when I walked in IA asked for a seat for four he only had three tables of people in there and the lady asked me do I have a reservation I said no do we need one she gave me a frown and said let me see if we could try to accommodate you like we were basically there are the busiest night which like I said they only have three tables worth of people they all looked at each other all the employees and then said oh let's put them upstairs is there room upstairs there's nobody sitting upstairs which is only a one little level high from the floor seating area didn't like the tap water that they gave us which it was horrible also to the spice levels are very very mild literally you can eat a seven and it still tastes like a one it was really disappointing especially for Indian food I would suggest to go to marigolds they are more authentic when it comes to Indian spices and cooking the other thing that I didn't like was the waitress did not print out my receipt before me even paying my bill it was just shown on a computer and basically I needed to pay it right then and there which I didn't like being rushed and also too they stand there while you figure out what tip to give them and when I gave them barely a $20 tip she right away asked me you didn't like the food and I was honest and told her that the food fell short and so did the pomegranate margarita that was the worst drink ever the Banana Foster you couldn't even tell they even had alcohol in it literally he didn't taste like it had anything this was a once in a lifetime thing I will not return back to this place but if you're looking for authentic Indian food go to marigolds

I love, love..love this place. Before, def during and post Covid we've taken out a lot.. 3-small kids. But something has changed. Auto-gratuity or fees.. $12 on a $60 order= 20%...Korma, vindaloo samosas and naan.. guys doesn't sit well. I usually come before my orders ready and order a gin martini. I don't get it..dump the fee for the 5th star. Foods great, consistent, Raja (sp?) is an excellent host and a good guy also.

We went for lunch on Saturday with 5 adults and three small children and it was a very nice experience. We were seated right away at a spacious table and two high chairs were provided. We started with some appetizers; Samosas, Chili Chicken, Garlic Naan, and Veg Rolls. All were hot, tasty and well presented. From there we went for entrees; Shrimp Vindaloo (10/10 hot, had some kick), Mixed Saffron Platter, Nilgiri Seared Salmon, Chicken Biryani, Lamb Biryani, and Butter Chicken. We also added Potato Stuffed Naan and Chicken Stuffed Naan. Al the items were excellent. They have a full bar and I enjoyed the Mango Mai Tai, while my son had a craft beer. The service was outstanding, with refills and plates cleared expeditiously. Overall: Very good place for Indian fare.

The food was excellent but as others have stated the front of house is disorganized. My boyfriend and I waited for a table for about 20 min and were some of the lucky ones -- our food came out relatively quickly. The table of 4 next to us had been waiting for at least 45 minutes. I have a feeling they get hit with a lot of grub hub/uber eats orders and the kitchen gets overwhelmed.

Mood- Tandoori Chicken Today was a day for an early lunch after many errands. We decided that Indian food was def on the palate especially Tandoori Chicken. Upon entering we had to wait a bit before being acknowledged. I figured they were probably very busy. Once the host came out we were ushered over to a table and menus were given. We opted for the Tandoori Chicken, Garlic Naan, Coconut Curry Chicken, Garlic Edamame, Chai Tea, and Rice. You are able to choose your spice level for each item. The food was wonderfully prepared. My highlight was the Coconut Curry and the Naan. Interior is a pretty good size. There are booths and several table and chair arrangements. Music was playing in the background. The staff were very friendly. Would recommend. Pricing is ok. I thought it was odd that for the tipping point, they automatically start out at 20%,25%,30% showing at the bottom of the receipt for you to choose from - You can add whatever tip you choose however. But I was taken back abit by that. Location is Craig/Tenaya - ample parking

This place was phenomenal. For our appetizers we had the demon wings and onion spinach pakoras. For the main we had tika masala with lamb and a side of rice and garlic naan. For dessert we had the rice pudding. Everything we ate was absolutely delicious. I had the Beer is Beautiful beer and it tasted like fruits, it really was beautiful. The service was amazing. The one thing I hate about restaurants is when they bring all the food at once, then your main sits getting cold while you're eating the appetizers. Not here, we happily enjoyed our beers and appetizers first then when finished the main was brought out. That's exactly how it should be. Alexia our waitress was so cool and always came to check on us and ask us how we're doing and if we needed anything else. After our meal we sat at the bar for some beers and spoke to the owner Raj, such a cool guy and it was nice to talk to him and the others at the bar. Food: Demon Wings: I am super picky when it comes to chicken wings, they need to have the perfect texture and taste. These wings truly hit the spot. I love spicy, the spicier the better. My mom doesn't like spicy so we got 2-3 on spicy level but they honestly were still so delicious. Alexia had brought me a delicious spicy sauce on the side that I poured on my wings. Mmm mmm good! Onion Spinach Pakoras: WOW! Dipped in the spicy sauce, these were absolutely amazing. The next time I am here I will most likely try the mushroom ones. These had the perfect taste. Tika Masala with Lamb: very good and juicy and that tika masala sauce was to die for. I kept dipping the garlic naan in the sauce. This to, we got around 2-3 in spicy level but I paired it with the hot sauce and it was just right. Honestly it was very delicious without the hot sauce too, I'm just crazy for spicy and needed it spicy! Rice: the only reason I'm giving the rice it's own review because it was amazing. Sure you might think "rice is rice". Nope, not here. The rice was delicious on its own. Garlic Naan: 2 words, FREAKING DELICIOUS Rice Pudding: I've never had rice pudding before and was super "nervous" to try it. Not that I'm ever nervous about food, I'm a foodie, but I was excited as to how it might taste. I really loved it honestly, I never get dessert at restaurants but I'm glad I got to experience this pudding. All in all, this will be my new go to Indian spot, can't wait to try everything else on the menu.

Best Indian food ever. a friend took me there. I wasn't really sure if I'd like Indian food but man they turned me onto something I didn't even know about I had curry coconut chicken comes with rice and garlic naum bread it was so good that a week later I had to go back for more. I recommend this place it's small it's quaint. It's quiet it's great

We've been coming here for years and everything has always been excellent. Our recent visit last week will be our last. We had a reservation and came a little early so I didn't mind waiting, however, it was SO HOT. Like, they didn't have the air conditioner on. When we were finally seated, it took about 10 minutes for someone to come and take our drink order. They were busy so I was trying to give them some grace. Our waitress was so freakin slow, just walking around as slow as possible when the dining room was full. The water had no ice - again, it was stifling in there. Our appetizers came quickly but all but one were barely warm. It takes forever for the waitress to get our food order and then takes forever again to bring our check. Around 20 minutes! We're all sweating to death waiting for her to just bring the check, it was obvious we were done eating. Then she informs us that gratuity has been added. The service was terrible, the food was mediocre at best and we were sweating the entire time. The manager refused to take it off. TIps are EARNED, and trust me, she didn't earn what the gratuity came out to be. I've never seen a waitress move slower. Maybe she thought since her tip was guaranteed she didn't have to work for it. I'm super pissed and disappointed as we've been coming here for a long time and recommend this place to all of our friends. Oh, and don't bother ordering soda unless you like canned soda. I don't, I can get that at home.

Went to this Indian restaurant for dinner at a Monday night. The restaurant did not have much patrons. This is a good day to go spend time with your date or friends. They have great cocktails and ipa beers. The paradisio beer has dragon fruit and passion fruit. Shout out to our very attentive waitress Alicia. She is very nice. We were indecisive on choosing pir beers and she gave us a beer sample. I had the saffron sampler plate. Alicia gave us additional rice. Their foods were delicious and flavorful. They have a lot of vegan options. They have a sign that say they can accommodate banquets and parties. They have a big room to your left as you enter the restaurant.

Wow this place is amazing! We were craving some Indian food and I'm glad we finally tried this place. We usually drive out to the southwest side for some good Indian place but this place just surprised us with how amazing the food taste. We had the garlic Naan bread, Makhani (butter chicken) ,Chicken Vindaloo curry and tandoori chicken tikka they were all amazing and flavorful even my 14yr old daughter said it's very good. We got the level 8 which is spicy but i think a 10 next time.Yeah it is a little on the pricy side I think we spent $100 plus for me my husband and daughter. The service is good and the guy who brought us our food was very friendly and nice.we will be back and try other dishes next time. Definitely recommend this place if you want some tasty authentic Indian food

Saffron has really gone down hill. The service is lacking very slow and rude. Cleanliness is an issue the table ware was dirty. The water pitcher they brought out looks like they just grabbed it off another table. They don't even have ice water! They have raised the prices smaller portions sad to say it but I'll never go back!

The service at Saffron keeps me coming back. Jen is so knowledgeable and hospitable. It feels like she's a good friend offering input on the amazing food and drinks offered on the menu. The staff is amazing, the food is amazing and the Beer is Beautiful is amazing.

The food. Is good here, they are kind of pricey for Indian food. Just convenient for me in neighborhood but definitely others as good or better for lower prices.

I've been trying to find a good Indian restaurant since moving here and I think I finally found it! My partner had never had Indian food before so I figured I would introduce her slowly. We ordered the butter chicken (makhani) and Tandori wings with two orders of garlic Naan. Everything was delectable. Spiced perfectly. The chicken was so tender. I didn't want to stop eating but there was so much food. The best part was having it again for lunch the next day. Can't wait to try more dishes!

My friend and I stopped by for lunch on a weekday. Upon entering, it seemed pretty empty and we did not see any employees. We stood there for maybe 5 minutes before someone came from the back and finally seated us. Our waiter was very apologetic for the wait. We initially were going to order samosas but our waiter recommended trying the samosa chaat, which we agreed to get. The main ingredient of this dish were the chickpeas, in addition to the chutney and yogurt sauce. I enjoyed the dish but personally I prefer the regular samosas. I ordered the chicken Tikka masala, level 7 out of 10 spice, for my main course. The flavors were bold and the spice was perfect. The garlic naan was delicious with a good amount of fresh garlic cooked on top. My friend and I fought over the last piece. Everything I'm looking for when I want Indian food.

The food isn't bad and the service was good. The price is a bit steep for what you get. Also, I'm not a fan of businesses that show their political expression when you walk in the front door regardless of which side they lean. The dish I liked best was the saffron platter of various grilled meats. Everything else was basic. Not too many options for Indian food in the area so this is a decent option if you're not willing to drive further out of the area.

I've eaten here quite a few times, and each time, the quality dips more and more. It used to be my favorite Indian spot, but now I will be looking elsewhere. I'm not sure if the owners are cutting costs and reducing food quality because of the renovations or just having issues with staff, but the drop-off is noticeable. The lamb I got in my curry seemed either canned or not fresh. Sort of just tossed in the curry as an afterthought. The curry itself (spice level 6) was flavorless except for the heat. Samosas were good along with those sauces, but the price has risen dramatically for those ($10 for 2), which makes it not worth it. Overall, it's just bad food for high prices. Would gladly pay for quality food, but we shall see if they make any changes or not.

The food is amazing, the service was exceptional and the joint looks sensational since the renovation. Run don't walk.

Who ever takes the order over the phone needs to learn some manners. I placed an order I was asked for my name card number expiration and the three digit number also not once did she ever say please or thank you however, I did let her know that she needs to learn some manners when she speaks to customers when taking orders.. it doesn't cost anything to be pleasant to people.

This is our go to for Indian food. We come back regularly because the staff is very attentive and everyone is amazing! We always get a double order of garlic naan, spicy tikka masala, tandoori chicken, butter chicken and desserts. Hits the spot every time! Drooling thinking about it.
