This small family owned restaurant is genuinely a hidden gem located conveniently in east Harlem close to central park and just off the FDR. The atmosphere, beautiful interior, welcoming staff, and most importantly the delicious food made my dining experience extremely memorable. We ordered the chicken biryani, butter chicken which came with a side of rice, vegetable samosas, and the garlic naan which was all cooked to perfection. It was flavorful, authentic, and made with love. Their serving sizes were large enough where I left stuffed AND with leftovers perfect for a midnight snack or breakfast the next day. The chef himself personally came out to greet us and to check on how we were enjoying the food which was so sweet. All in all, this restaurant is definitely worth a visit and I will be back for sure!
The best curry in NYC!!
My husband and I living in this neighborhood for 8 years tried so many local restaurants were dying to discover a new place and so happy found this amazing restaurant!
There are some Indian restaurants around here but we had never gotten full satisfaction by them so when we heard there is a new Indian restaurant, we were so excited to try it out.
We ordered a green salad as a starter and then tandoori chicken, garlic naan, and mix vegetable curry.
I personally can’t eat spicy food so I was a little bit nervous about curry but once I tasted it I couldn’t stop eating until nothing was left!
Its flavor was insane!!! I can’t tell you enough how delicious it was! The Rice and naan were cooked just right. A great match to emphasize the curry’s amazing flavor.
Tandoori chicken was well marinated and perfectly grilled.
After our meal, the owner suggested to us his favorite dessert, described as having “cheese” and being “sweet” and I was deeply hooked by it. It’s called Rasmalai and it was so delicious.
We will definitely come back very soon!!
I ordered a chicken korma dinner last night for the first time and all I can say is WOW! The food was extra tasty with just enough of everything to make a very satisfying meal. It's shocking how good it was! Their prices are fair and I'm happy that this caliber of restaurant is in East Harlem. I will be ordering again soon.

A family owned restaurant. The owner is a nice Bangladeshi man, who after 31 years, decided to open his own restaurant. That’s amazing MashaAllah.

I went for dinner tonight and it was absolutely fantastic! From the authentic, comforting atmosphere to the high quality food, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and the people. Kalim, the chef, personally greeted us and asked us how the meal was, which was an extremely kind gesture. I’ve tried a lot of Indian throughout the city and this is among the best, if not the best, that I’ve had. I ordered the Paneer Tikka Masala and it was like I was eating a home cooked meal. The garlic naan were fantastic and extremely tasty. Serving size was great and I have enough for leftovers tomorrow. The prices are so reasonable! I pay more for less at other restaurants. It’s a great value! All in all, this is a great group of people really trying to bring quality eats and experience to the city. I know we’ll be going back soon and frequently. I was moved enough to write my first review. Please give this place a try, you won’t regret it!
