I held a business meeting here over the lunch hour with an associate. Food was delicious and the service was great. I had fresh halibut and my guest love the crab sandwich! Prices are a little above moderate...

Yummy indo-pak good. Great variety of authentic meat dishes. The naans are huge and filling (1 per meal is usually enough). Portion sizes are good, spice levels are perfect and prices are very reasonable. Don't come here for ambience (you just grab a table as someone leaves), service (mostly self serve, and don't ask to customize), or expecting a healthy meal (dishes can be greasy) - but come here to eat tasty authentic Indian/Pakistani meat curries and naan.

Honestly some of the best Indian food in the Bay Area. While the restaurant isn't too fancy, they serve some of the best meat dishes out there. The Chicken Tikka Masala is simply fantastic, and their chicken leg tastes amazing. I would definitely recommend going here if you want affordable, tasty Indian food.
