Another gem at 130 Davis Drive, the strip mall of many dining choices. I was a bit concerned when I arrived and found the place to be completely empty at 6:30 pm on a Thursday. The decor was quite nice though, and I figured Yelp would not have steered me wrong. Several groups did show up just as we were leaving. Maybe people eat Indian later in Newmarket?
The host/server was quite friendly, and he turned on the house music for us, not that I asked. He cautioned my dining companion that the Korma was mild, which is usually the reverse of the typical "that's hot" warning you get at most Indian Places. I thought that was interesting.
We ordered a murg (chicken) korma, murg dhaba, both with naan, and a paneer pakora appetizer. The appetizer was pricey at $11, and there were only six pieces. It was good, but definitely not worth the price.
Both curries were delicious; the korma had an aromatic flavour, and was quite enjoyable. I had no idea what dhaba was when I ordered it, and it turned out to be a slightly spicy butter chicken-type dish, which was quite tasty. The naan breads were the show stopper for me. I'm a naan snob, and I was very happy with the naan here. I also ordered mango lassi, my go to drink at Indian places, and I was very pleased with it.
Other than the overpriced appetizer, I was very happy with my meal here, and I'd definitely like to sample their extensive menu in the future.
