The food was amazing and the portions just right. We had the eggplant and Tika Marsala lamb, which was so tender! The spinach naan was beyond expectation. A perfect meal, the waitstaff was attentive. Overall, it was a delightful experience and we will be sure to return next time we are in Seattle.

Tried the veggie platter appetizer, kashmiri naan, and specialty curry with chicken. Everything was amazing. Will definitely be back.

Yes! Love this place. My husband and I stopped by here to get dinner before seeing a show at the Paramount which is across the street. I had the masala chicken and some garlic naan bread. There are generous portions of the naan bread and it was fabulous. The service was great and speedy.

The restaurant was quiet early on a Saturday evening. We were seated right away by a respectably friendly server. The food came quickly and all at once. My madras masala was delicious with large, tender pieces of chicken. I love spicy food but played it safe and ordered medium-hot. Next time, and I do plan to return, I will order hot! The rice was spot on, as was the Naan. By the time we left, the crowd was increasing but the sound level still pleasantly low. And, always important, the bathrooms were clean and easily accessible.

I've never dined in but I always do take out and their coconut curry is the best. It's definitely my favorite vegan dish in Seattle. My boyfriend loves the Tikka Masala with Paneer. Always ready very fast and delicious. Great portion sizes for a (relatively) cheap price. Definitely a must try in Seattle and my top spot for Indian food as well as one of my top spots overall. Would love to try dine in one day.

Such a beautiful restaurant and the servers are so nice. I have a thing for Basmati Rice... This place hit the nail with the hammer on this dish... We also ordered Curry and another dish with Spinach called Palak Paneer... SO GOOD!!!!

I like India foods, but never tried in Seattle until now. I was not disappointed. Veggie platter was a good start. Then we order a reasonable sample of saucy protein dishes, with two kinds of nan. There were complimentary rice that proved to be beyond our capacity. Flavor-wise, they were on the mild side. We probably should have upped the spiciness level a bit. Biggie platter was a standard layout, they did not adjust to the number of patrons. Full bar, attentive staff, and relatively quick food arrivals. I will come again when I crave for Indian foods.

This is my go to spot for Indian food in Seattle. I've gotten take out numerous times and dined in a few times, and it never disappoints. The food is delicious, comes in pretty large portions (I always have leftovers). You could definitely do family style here, or order an individual dish, and one order of nann is enough to feed 2-3 people. The restaurant is always pretty quiet, but service is great, and the waiters are very attentive. It has a very formal feeling but is a casual spot and would be a great place to eat after exploring downtown. The only downside is that parking can be hard to find.

While in Seattle, there weren't too many things around that sounded good and we wanted to eat somewhere close to our hotel. We haven't had good Indian food so we ended up picking this place (rating was good and food looked good). We ordered crisp calamari, tikka masala (chicken and comes with rice), and garlic naan. The calamari was perfect. Crispy and tender calamari. They give you a good amount. It was perfect for the two of us. The tikka masala was really good too! Just needed some chili oil / hot sauce. The rice was basic. Wish it were garlic rice. On the other hand, the garlic naan was REALLY good! Ate more of the naan than the rice. They give you a good amount and they freshly make it in house. Also, it looked like they have a buffet during lunch. If we go back to Seattle, we will definitely come back to try the other things on the menu.
