Amazing food! I had the chicken korma and could drink that sauce! The garlic and cheese naans were awesome! I would definitely recommend making this restaurant a part of your stop to Rapid City!
LOVELY LOVELY PLACE. THE FOOD WAS DELICIOUS AND FLAVORFUL. I APPRECIATE IT ALL BEING BROUGHT OUT TOGETHER. THE KIDS - picky picky eaters - ATE UP THEIR CHICKEN LOLLIPOPS. We came at busy hour so it took some time to be seated and served BUT it was worth the wait. The mango lassi best one EVERRRRRRRRRR. I’ve never had one where I could actually taste the damn mango. It was thick. It was amazing.
The food , atmosphere and service is awesome! Smiling faces always (Shamila) and the Rack of Lamb couldn’t be better prepared. Complements to the staff and cooks. One of my favorite restaurants in Rapid City!
Food is phenomenal. We love spicy and the medium heat was perfect. Saag Paneer was the perfect blend of spicy and creamy without being too creamy. We also enjoyed the chicken curry, aloo gobi, and garlic Naan. Highly recommend!!
Wow, the food was amazing! The staff was friendly and gave a great recommendation! The chicken korma was fantastic! I would love to eat here again the next time I am in Rapid City! The best Indian food I have had in a while! I was so impressed!
I got a to go order - butter chicken medium spicy. At first bite, I thought this isn’t spicy at all but then it built and the flavors were incredible! The portions were large. I’ll get two dinners out of it. The woman who gave me my order was super sweet and helpful, offered me silverware and a plate - something I didn’t think of but was super helpful in the hotel room. Would absolutely recommend!
The place is very accessible it’s in the Main Street, the down side , u need to pay for parking but it’s cheap 1/hr. The food was good . Ordered chicken tandoori tika moderate spiced , delectable and affordable for one serving . I also ordered garlic naan . The servers were friendly .
Nice little bistro with very authentic vibes. First time trying Indian/Nepalese food and I loved it. I have the meat samosa for app and butter chicken with Naan as entree and it was great!
