I ordered chicken samosa, chicken butter curry, and butter naan—everything tasted super tasty and fresh. I mostly order food from this place, and the taste is always consistent and amazing. I highly recommend it as one of the best places. I’ve also dined here many times with my friends, and the service has always been good. Definitely worth visiting again!

I’m giving it 4stars but it’s really 3 1/2stars. I’ve read some of the other reviews here and —YES— all of that, good and bad. It’s a neighborhood Indian joint. It’s not fine dining, you probably don’t wanna have an adult date there. This is not where your parents should take you for graduation. This is where you go to get a food fix.
It’s flavorful, perhaps a little too salty, there are whole cardamom pods in everything!—but I kinda like biting into that citrusy flower taste—it’s nice.
I ordered: saag paneer—the paneer was the densest I’ve ever experienced and the saag was salty (not inedible) but the flavor was great.
Haleem (goat)— If you eat goat and buy goat at a restaurant you know it’s either gonna be buttery soft or you’re about to give your jaw a workout. This is where I took off some star value because it shouldn’t be tough. It was flavorful.
Last was something all mushrooms and sauce. A creamier sauce with a LOT of mushrooms. No mushroom was spared. It wasn’t just a replica of something else, but with mushrooms—it had a life all its own and I enjoyed eating it.
Also! Vegetables Samosas - 5 stars. Best samosas and great price.
Rice pudding —“It’s a no for me dawg.” I could tell that it wasn’t fresh. The raisins and peanuts were so bloated and bland, as was the rice pudding itself. It needed —ironically—Cinnamon!!
I wish a little makeover and some revamping and attention to salting for this restaurant. I want it to succeed and for people to get the good food that I can tell they know how to make.

We love Cinnamon! The food is consistently delicious (especially the saag), and the price is great for the amount of food you get. We find ourselves coming back again and again.

Stopped here on a whim for lunch and the food was excellent! Samosas were perfectly cooked and the tamarind sauce is so good! Our server was very sweet. We ate so much that we took a 3 hour nap afterwards! Will absolutely be back!
