    We really enjoyed the food and the inviting ambiance. Although the restaurant was busy and nearly full, the noise level was low - we were able to have a conversation without elevating our voices. We will certainly return.

    Hip, cool Indian restaurant with actually good food to match its vibes. My favorite was the Jackfruit Kofta. We were too full for dessert, but will definitely return to try other items on the menu.

    I really wanted to love this place. I did. Can’t charge that much for such small portions. The taste wasn’t terrible but I could get that caliber of Indian food for a fraction of the price at the spot around the corner from my house. The curry goat, $29, had 4-5 pieces of bone w a little meat on them. $22 for a half of a cup of chickpeas is ridiculous. The chicken tika pizza was bland. The paneer pinwheels were pretty good. Way overpriced for mediocre Indian food. Sadly I won’t return.

    This is my second time having dinner here. From the food, to the service- OUTSTANDING! The food is mouth watering delicious! It was my friends first time there- and she never had Indian food before. She LOVED it! Every single bite, we totally enjoyed it.

    Our waitress Diya was absolutely amazing. She provided outstanding service. We had questions about some of the menu items that we were unfamiliar with and she was spot on. We were never rushed and we had a leisurely meal despite it being Saturday night and that it was full. We really appreciated that. The decor is modern, and beautiful. It is one of the absolute best restaurants I have been to in Montclair. I had taken a family member there the week before. I will continue to go ! It’s a complete experience dining there.
