    I was a little bit worried taking an Indian colleague to dinner here as after all - he would be the best judge! However in the end I needn't have worried the food was excellent - everything was good from a light Roti to great Jalfrezi, Aubergine (eggplant) curry and Dahl. All made with the possibility to adjust the heat from 1-6! (we had 4's and 6's and they were good) Very fast service on the food, but the bill and water was a bit slow. It is BYOB so do not forget if you want a glass of wine or Beer to pack appropriately.

    Wow, so glad places like this still exist. The food was amazing and how nice to be able to bring our own drinks to enjoy. The service was great. Food fresh, and we didn't have to wait long. There is a patio to dine out doors if you'd like. can't wait to go back!

    I have had the lunch buffet at Dusmesh, but never dinner until now. Everyone in our group wants to return asap because of the delicious food, wonderful service and overall great experience at Dusmesh. They really do have options for everyone- vegetarian, spicy, non-spicy, etc. and will help guide your selection if you ask for help. The appetizer chana-xi-chat was phenomenal, the best naan we've ever had- so light and crispy (we ordered garlic), and both my husband and I ordered different saag dishes that we shared and loved. If you do want your meal spicy, you can order levels 1-6, so it's customized to how hot you can handle. Overall great experience and we will definitely return and recommend it to others.

    Anxious to try Indian food paired with our own BYOB selection (which the majority seems to takes advantage of), I had high hopes. Would have to say that the food didn't have as good a flavor as other places I've tried, and everything seemed especially oily. Chef's special naan was a game-changer though! Great atmosphere, friendly service, but I certainly wasn't impressed with what I ordered.

    52 years on this planet and I had never tried Indian cuisine and boy have I been missing out. The food was delicious and the service was great. My date had eaten at several other Indian restaurants and said this was by far the best he had experienced. We will definitely be back!

    Great place, the staff was super nice and you could tell how happy they were to have us there. I felt very welcome here. No complaints here. Great food, the tikka masala was stellar, and the naan was great. Their rice is much better than other Indian establishments I've had in other cities, that perfect consistency. Real cool atmosphere for a meal with a loved one of a group of friends. Again felt very comfortable, not pressured/rushed and felt that they were really happy to have our business and serve us. J

    I submitted the Open Table request in the morning and they had our table for 12 people set up and ready for us at 11:30. Good overall experience.

    First time, had heard from friends. Extensive menu - too many good things to choose from. Very friendly and helpful staff to explain various dishes. We went with platters to sample more items and know what to get next time. It is byob without cork fee, which we found to be great! Check it out.

    I've been to this establishment before but my last trip there was simply amazing. The host/ server who sat us and took care of us was so incredibly polite. The food came out so fast and exceeded my expectations for a Saturday night. I will be returning soon.
