"I love the small space it's very simple set up and you pay per lb the samosa and the dessert were $2 each paid like $27 I love it. It's my very first time eating indian food and it's good wouldn't mind going back again. I got the biryani rice, the cauliflower with tofu and the pumpkin"

"If I could give 10 stars I would. As soon as I walked through the doors of this eatery, I was immediately transported back to India. The smells of the spices filled the air and the aroma was nostalgic and comforting to me as someone who loves to travel to India.
I was warmly greeted by the owner who immediately felt like a friend. He helped me choose which food to load my plate with, and I tried a little bit of everything! That’s definitely the way to go. He told me that all of the food was made fresh from vegan ingredients and I could definitely tell that he used extremely high-quality ingredients in every single dish. The flavors in each individual dish are so unique and vibrant, every bite was its own delicious experience.
Aside from the incredible food, there was a certain atmosphere in this restaurant that fostered rich conversations with some of the other folks at the next table over. This was an unexpected bonus and made the experience of eating at this restaurant that much more memorable.
I live about an hour away from this place and am already planning my next trip back for some delicious food and good conversation.
You are definitely lucky if you get to dine at this amazing place! Thank you to the owner Doma for such a wonderful experience!"

"Since I’m not Indian and have never been to India, I’m hardly qualified to state this was “authentic Indian food.” Disclosure complete. This was delicious food and everything that I imagine authentic Indian food would be. The gentleman serving was friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is pretty basic, but the buffet had abundant vegetarian and vegan options. Food was fresh and flavor amazing. Very clean. Incense was a bit strong. You pay by the pound ($10.50/lb). Lots of baked deserts. Bottled (non-alcoholic) drinks with a large selection."
