    We ordered the goat curry and Shahi paneer and they were awesome. Such good flavors! The staff was very friendly but incompetent. They served our entrees but failed to bring plates, rice or naan!😵‍💫 Common sense would say everything come out at once. It was 5 or 6 minutes before we got the plates.

    They are new, so I'm not going to be crazy critical. Rather, I'd like to add a few suggestions to improve on the experience. Butter chicken and lamb Rogan josh needs more than a lot of sauce. Lamb kadai instead? The lamb was tender. Chicken... thigh meat? Salad, no! Prefer ketchkumber. Onion kulcha was atypical but good. Nan + or -. Not sure. Good raita and samosas. Interior needs more Indian inspired decorations and maybe some soothing ragas to calm the nerves. Excellent wait staff.

    My wife and I had a most excellent dinner there last night. We started with a paneer appetizer, and two different chicken dishes. Hard names for me to remember, my wife had achari(?) chicken, wow! I had a dish with chicken in a very well spiced sauce with onion, bell peppers and believe this chili head, medium-hot was right on the borderline for me. It was spicy, but all the flavors came through beautifully. As for the staff, they could not have been nicer. The interior design is nice too, they completely gutted the FJS decor & walls and opened it nice and roomy. Always a plus for a full size guy! I highly recommend.

    I hate to leave a bad review but this place gave us a huge scare. My daughter has a severe/life-threatening allergy to peanuts/nuts. I specifically mentioned this multiple times to the person who seated us and our server. We ordered the "bhel poori chaat" appetizer and part of the way through eating it I discovered it had whole peanuts in it. Their menu does not specify it has peanuts (I double-checked, the copy here on Google also doesn't say there are peanuts). The server was friendly and she claimed she stated she went and checked and none of the things we ordered had peanuts/nuts. So I don't know if she was not being honest, or the kitchen told her the wrong thing. Regardless, we didn't end up eating 90% of our food and just left immediately because if my daughter had eaten a peanut we would have ended up having to give her an epi pen shot and she would have ended up in the emergency room as she asphyxiates and vomits extremely quickly after having nuts. To the owners: Please make sure your menu correctly states which items have peanuts/nuts and make sure your staff knows/communicates properly about it.
