"We got chicken vindaloo and butter chicken and it was like a hug in a bowl, so savory and comforting. The meat was so tender and soft and the spices were amazing, I don’t know a lot about Indian food but I can tell when spices are high quality and fresh. The basmati rice was cooked perfectly and so fragrant. A Salem gem, don’t think twice about coming here"

"So I was the biggest fan for 2 weeks and 5 days. I really believed in this place, but after the curry that I received the other day spending nearly a $100, I was so upset that I went back to talk to the owners to find out one of them has already walked. My family and I had eaten 2 dozen bowls of Curry and were establishing the ones we really liked. The chicken curry was one of our favorites and it was always served with the Tandoori Style Chicken cut up in the curry making it an exceptional dish. On our visit two nights ago it was far from that. The chicken was extremely thin sliced chicken that you would see in a Chinese stir fry and it had Gristle and Bone fragments attached. The shrimp Curry which again is one of our favorites was a 30% pool of oil. Now here's the worst part of it all. They're not doing sit-down anymore and forcing you to do takeout so that's what I did. When you dine in the bowl is approximately 20 oz of Curry and they drizzle a topping over it. However on their take out they're cramming the curry into a 16 oz to go container and only giving you 12 oz per Curry of rice. So not only is the product not as good, but you're totally getting ripped off on takeout. Last, but not least there was the top of a bottle that was the seal in our Curry. I washed it off and was going to show the other owner, but I decided not to even bother. Stay away from this place. Its going down very soon. I included three pictures so you can see what was ultimately in my Curry, but also the tiny 16 oz container they're cramming a $19 curry dish into. Pathetic."

"Beautiful food that hit the spot! Very reasonable prices. The Apricot Lamb and Vegetarian Biryani were delicious! The best mango lassi I've ever had."
