Shenna Jaye QuitorianoSeptember 29, 2026The staff were very accommodating and respectful. I tried the Mutton Majboos for the first... read more time and I was surprised at how much I liked it. The mutton was really good, especially with the veggies, yogurt and fresh daqoos on the side. They even gave me Gulab Jamun for dessert, which was a very nice gesture. It was also my first time trying it and I loved it. Really enjoyed my meal and the warm service. ❤

- Gypsy BasaloSeptember 10, 2026The food was great, literally! However, I was disappointed with the service because my instructions... read more were not followed properly. I clearly sent my location and room number, but the delivery still wasn’t made according to the details I provided. What’s the purpose of sending my exact location and room number if they are not going to be followed? I hope the team can pay closer attention. Thank you
