At first glance, I almost would have passed them by as yet another restaurant near Sahara . Metaphorically of course. Kicked in the face with the aroma of a slew of Indian spices, right when I opened the door. Looking closer though, they have some innovative products like sev puri which you cannot see in other Indian restaurants.\r
Sketchy neighborhood aside, this may very well be my new favorite restaurant. We went on a Sunday night--there was plenty of business, but we didn't have to wait for a table. It's not a fancy restaurant (although it looked pretty clean and spiffy to me), but the smell of the food knocks you flat and proceeds to permeate your entire being, until you smell like curry and MAGIC.\r
I asked for medium to hot on the spicy scale Lamb chops and medium chicken tikka masala and I could not have asked for it to be more accurate. It was absolutely delicious.\r
Pros: great aroma captivates you
Cons: I live in California
