    Excellent service and the food was DELICIOUS. I am vegetarian and was looking for a warm meal and the weekend special was SPOT ON! I dug in with vigor. I live in Sarasota but plan to return at every trip north on I75. Namaste 🙏🙂😍

    Restaurant is order at kiosk style. Was clean inside. Staff was friendly, but food left much to be desired. My to-go order: Mango lassi drink $5 - very good, creamy. Chicken Tikka masala $15 - It was mostly sauce, very little meat. Pieces of chicken were very small. Rice was overcooked/mushy and was generic white rice, not long grain rice basmati rice. Garlic naan $4 - Got one small piece of soggy bread that was rolled into a tight sausage shape inside foil. I asked them if that's all you got for $4 and they confirmed. Total $24 plus tax and tip. Not worth it. Will not be going again.
