Ambience: neatly decorated in contemporary lines with Pakistani lanterns adding coziness. Would be great for a henna ceremony-they can seat 90!
Punjabi home cooking, not spicy, mildly flavored allowing the character of the food to shine through. We were all licking our fingers and had multiple naans!
Food:
Matar alu- tasted exactly like my grandmas. Not greasy, potatoes cooked to perfection and not mushy. Right proportion of alu to matar!
Chicken karhai: if I wasn't Pakistani myself, I would have expected a sizzling oily chicken dish. Instead we got a family portion of succulent chicken in a clean white bowl laced with fresh ginger and coriander leaves. It was perfect with the warm butter naan.
We ordered other food but I was completely engrossed with the food that tasted like grandma made it, so didn't try anything!
Why I'll go back- my dad ordered a makhan roti( buttered roti) by mistake- he wanted a naan- and they actually made him a roti from scratch. Off menu.
And you have to have the gulaab jamun. Warm, syrupy perfection.
