Fantastic food. Lamb korma was amazing, succulent, tender pieces of lamb and lots of cashews, great flavor. Other order was chicken curry: medium spice was perfect spiciness, rich and complex flavors. Their naan was out of this world. Rice pudding for dessert was excellent. Big proportions, took home leftovers.
