A vegetarian Indian restaurant located in Richmond Hill is refreshing.
It's a small place but we managed to fit a large group of about 8-10 of us here. Lots of locals were dining here, which is a great sign!
The menu is simple but with lots of different options. The tiffins (the curries), South Indian section, apps and a small section for Chinese Indian style food. The tiffins come with the curry, rice, naan. I wanted to really get one of these but I was wearing a pale beige blouse and I knew I was going to f*ck it up eating curry..lol (I came from a work meeting)
I decided to go for the masala biryani b/c I just love me some biryani. This was pretty delicious and a little spicy which gave it some nice flavors. It was a little more 'wet' style of biryani than I care for (I personally prefer the Hyderabadi style of biryani that tends to be more 'dry'). Sorry this is the only way I can describe my preferences - wet/dry...lol.
The portion at first looks small but it's actually a decent size. I'd probably order this and one of the tiffin's and share amongst 2-3 people.
The service is super friendly, the server answered all the questions that several of the other diners had about the food as they were not familiar with this type of cuisine.
I'll definitely come back here when in the area.
