"Ordered mutton claypot biryani and the taste is quite good. The portion of mutton inside is quite generous and the meat is tender. Will come again next time when i crave for biryani. The shop is a bit narrow, but it is fine as long as it is not crowded."

"Definitely the best Indian food in Penang!! There is nothing wrong about this place. Perfect for big groups or small groups. Was here 3 times during my stay in Penang and it only got better each time. If you go here please try the Cheese Roti you will not regret it!

"We were heading somewhere else for dinner, but the wonderful smells from this restaurant and Shubham the waiter enticed us in. The food was great. Boneless mutton curry, curried squid and tandoori chicken along with the extras did not disappoint. Shubham’s was a great waiter. This is on my return list"

"Love the food here, with the rice served in Claypot dishes. Reasonable prices also, the Chicken Biryani RM13, even more delicious is the Chicken Tikka (served in a spicy sause) with Biryani Rice, RM15. It's been quiet when I've been in early afternoon."
