  Definitely my new to go Indian restaurant. One of things that stood out to me was how tender the chicken was in my chicken korma. It was very moist and the flavors in every dish were amazing. The service was also excellent. They came over several times to fill our water and make sure that everything was good. The staff is very friendly. The seats are very comfortable and the restaurant is dimly lit, the atmosphere is very relaxing. Perfect for dinner. I had a great meal with my friend here, would certainly recommend.

  A genuinely wonderful place to get Indian food! Everything is delicious, flavorful and perfectly spiced, all at amazing prices! Staff are incredibly polite, attentive, and able to answer any questions you may have. All around a 10/10 experience, and a must-visit for anyone living in or visiting Santa Clarita!

  We decided to stop here for dinner last-minute on a road trip, and we ended up experiencing not only a highlight of the trip, but one of the best meals we've had in years. I was a bit skeptical of the overwhelmingly positive reviews at first, but it became clear as soon as we had the complimentary appetizer that this was going to be something special. The dal was beautifully subtle and not over-salted, as it often can be. The saag aloo was the best saag I've ever tasted, and the potatoes were perfectly tender. The chutneys had me scooping ever last drop out of their containers. And the free mango lassi (courtesy of an exceptionally kind staff member) was the best mango lassi I've ever had, and probably one of the more flavorful and delicious things I've ever tasted. And my four year old daughter basically didn't take the straw out of her mouth for five minutes. Also, as vegans, we were told we could call a day in advance to tell them we were going to the next lunch buffet, and they would emphasize vegan dishes that day. Rarely have I ever seen such care, attention to detail, and customization offered at any business, let alone restaurant. All in all, the entire experience was absolutely sublime. I can't recommend this restaurant highly enough. I'd go so far as to say this is the best Indian food I've ever paid for, and I can't wait to go back as soon as possible. Artful and impeccable.

  They've clearly put a lot of work into making this place feel comfortable and fun. Despite being in the middle of a strip mall, it doesn't feel like it at all. The food is phenomenal -- rich, well-seasoned, and texturally delightful. The service was wonderful -- Rajeh was lovely.

  I will start off by saying, WOW!! From the moment we walked in the door and were greeted by Sahej, throughout the meal and service, everything was an absolute pleasure. We were presented with pita chips and chutney to start. I knew right away, if the rest of the meal was as good as the chutney was, we were going to be in for a fantastic experience. We ordered Shrimp Pakora for an appetizer. Though I was not aware this was going to be breaded and fried, it was more like a tempura coating, so not anything to complain about. The flavor profile was such a compliment with the shrimp, and was cooked to perfection. I decided to try their Lamb Karahi, while my wife ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala. We also ordered their Chicken Naan and chose the plain Basmati Rice to use with our main meal. Both of our main dishes had a slight spicy kick, but not overwhelming. Again, the flavors were absolutely amazing! The Chicken Naan was so delicious, we ordered another helping to go, before we closed out our tab. All of this was enjoyed with a bottle of their Sauvignon Blanc ( Pierre Chainier 1749) which went well with all offerings. Now, to talk about the service and attentiveness… This has to be one of the best staff experiences we have ever encountered. Prompt service with filling of the water glasses and providing us with the “tapas” type of beginning. They gave us enough time to view the menu and decide, without being overbearing or neglectful. Throughout the course of our dinner, we were checked on by Sahej, another nice young gentleman (possibly a brother?), the mother, the father?, and the best part by Manu. She came to the table once to check on us, but the second time produced a very pleasant conversation. While waiting for our left-overs to be boxed up (yes, they don’t bring you containers for self-service!), and our additional order of Chicken Naan, she brought us a couple chocolate dipped strawberries, hand-dipped by herself. It was nice to have such a personable experience for our very first time. I chose this restaurant based on the amount of positive reviews I had seen, and I am so grateful we had a full 5 Star experience, so I could write this very deserved review. We have found a favorite restaurant in this cuisine category, and will surely be returning. Thank you for setting a standard that many other establishments should be following!
