From what I know, this is the only place in Athens to get a real good curry. Spice pallet is broad, interesting and intense: If you want extra hot they won't disappoint. Flavouring is wonderful across the board, portions are generous bordering on too large once you have the included rice and an accompaniment such as a Naan or Pikora. Staff are warm and welcoming, and very helpful/understanding to their guests.
One thing to note is they don't shy away from using authentic names and terminology, so go armed with an understanding of what things like a Korma, Jalfrezi or a Masala (to name a few) are so you don't end up surprised.
Both take-out and sit-in are offered with a buffet menu option at certain hours.
I'd strongly recommend this place for something just a little bit different, it's a rare kind of restaurant to see outside the big city.
Great food and awesome owners... Locally owned and operated... They have an amazing lunch buffet!
Best Indian food I've ever had. Food is spiced to your liking. I'll definitely be making a trip back.
The best Indian food ever and Athens is lucky to have this wonderful restaurant here.
