"Masala does it away and blows my taste buds away. Always so so yummy, creamy, spicy like I asked for, freshly cooked, perfectly portioned- not left wanting more in that moment but knowing I'll be coming back to get some more of this goodness later. Meant to take a picture but it was gone before I could."
"I had the Butter Masala. I finished treatment from cancer over a month ago and my appetite is coming back. I mention this because I haven't been able to eat any spicy food in over a year. I got spice level "house" I thought that was the least spiciest. I'm not sure now. It definitely made me a little nervous but I ate it and threw caution to the wind it was SOOOO good! No stomach issues either. The portion was good wish there had been more because I'm a piggy. I will be ordering again! The garlic naan please give me 500 more! So fresh and tastey!"

"It was my first time trying Apollo Fish from this restaurant. You will need to adjust salt by your preference. But overall I liked it. No fishy smell at all."
"This was AMAZING. Real tandoori you can tell from the texture of the chicken, the crisp blackened edges, the juicy flavor, the bone marrow you can crunch right through to it.. not just advertised, but actually the real cooked super high temp I'm getting what I paid for and the portion size is PERFECT, enough for 1-2 healthy keto adults to FEAST. 2 dipping sauces, 2 lime wedges... and extra onions on the side.. absolutely perfect. Bravo. And I'm picky, I have complained about many orders here from different restaurants but this place HITS. They do it right. Not ordering tandoori anywhere else because the size and the value. They did it right. Thank you."
