The self-description of Indian food with a Mexican flare is very accurate. If you're looking for a different flavor, give them a look.
The basic concept of the serving style has been replicated by different cuisine styles all across. Chipotle or Cava-style plate building with a base, a protein, a sauce, and vegetables. But instead of the same repetitive mexican food found everywhere, you pick, for example, bagara or biryani rice. Protein such as chicken, shrimp, salmon, LAMB! BUT with butter masala, tikka masala, rayal... Yum!
Would you like tacos instead? Well, get chicken, shrimp, paneer naan tacos or cheese naan tacos. Drink a thumsup soda or a hot masala chai for a more authentic meal.
The place was, unfortunately, empty. Although we might prefer the quietness and lack of people around, too much of it does not support this hidden gem in Columbia.
If you want to eat alone, it is perfect. On the other hand, if you're not alone, the silence makes you have to lower your voice below normal tones to maintain conversational privacy. The TV was off, no background music. Some noise is usually welcomed. They told me they have only been open for a few months and I hope they do well.
The food tasted great, fresh, and with generous proportions. Good seasoning, spicy but not overly so. It is primarily booth style sitting.
Give them a shot and I'm sure...

This is the new HIDDEN GEM of northeast Columbia. Unique fusion restaurant combining DELICIOUS Indian food in Mexican style (quesadillas, tacos, burritos, ect.). Itās essentially Chipotle if they served Indian food, but BETTER.
Iāve come here 3 times over the last few weeks and the food is exceptional every time. The flavor is rich and tasty, portions are a great size and prices very reasonable. I get the Naan tacos, which comes with 2 tacos (trust me, itās filling). Iāve had the chicken and shrimp and can honestly say you canāt go wrong with either, but the chicken is a must try.
Excited to try more of the menu and I encourage anyone passing by to give them a shot. This restaurant is a must have for NE Columbia and I hope to see my community fill this place up because this is the quality and innovative food options we need. Will be doing all I can to spread the word and get people to check...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreHeard about this restaurant and thought Iād give them a try. I stopped in around lunch time and I really had no idea what to order. The young man who prepared my food was so patient. He provided more than a few samples to help me figure out what I wanted because I was completely unfamiliar with their foods/flavors, and he built my bowl. Momentarily, the gentleman stepped to the back to top my order with cheese (as requested), I paid, and seated myself to dined in. Since, this is a newer establishment, Iāll give them a little grace on the decor and hopefully theyāll do more in the future. I have to add that, thankfully, their ābowlsā are plastic with snap on lidsā¦..which means my food and juices can finally stay together. However, sturdier plasticware is needed.
Other than that, Iāll be giving them all of my Chipotle money for...
