“ Absolutely incredible! This South Indian restaurant serves some of the most authentic dishes I’ve ever tasted. The highlight for me was the coconut leaf–wrapped fish appetizer—one bite and I was instantly transported to the southern coast of India. The flavors were bold, fresh, and perfectly balanced. The mango curry was equally phenomenal—rich, tangy, and bursting with depth. On top of the amazing food, the staff was exceptional—warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly. This place isn’t just good; it’s at the very top of my list! ”
