" This place is a hidden gem. From the moment you step in, the interior feels warm, inviting, and with a touch of South Indian charm. The cauliflower 65 was crispy and full of flavors - perfectly executed and not oily at all. The masala dosa and paneer dosa were huge, even bigger than the plates. Perfectly crispy, bursting with flavors, and not overly oily. "

" Unfiltered, unscripted, and absolutely delicious. The parotas were really soft and the curry was not too spicy and not too bland at the same time. So I really loved what I had today. Come taste the flavors of home - right here in Calgary. "
