Mediocre food, all the food there is equal to what you would have at home. Except the naan bread. The naan bread was REALLY good. But the food in general was not worth the price. Our food took a bit too much time.
Water costs money which I find really annoying, especially due to the fact that it's still water. The waiter broke the glass bottle in front of us.
The ambiance is nothing special or exceptional.

Thank you
We were the only 2 customers on a Tuesday night in January. They waited for us, they served us and let us eat without rushing or wanting to get us out quickly (like it happened in other places). Food was amazing, we ordered 4/5 dishes each and everything was excellent! Very big portions, we couldn’t finish and we had to take away the excess, that was packed very kindly. Very delighted and will definitely go back! 😀
