    I was visiting Boston and in search of a locally owned restaurant for dinner. This was within walking distance of my hotel. From the outside, it just appears to be a small restaurant that wasn't busy. Once inside, I was immediately greeted by the owner. He was very friendly. A young hostess then came and led me to a table. There is Pakistani decor around the restaurant that gave the restaurant a homey feel. The owner and I talked about his life back home, him immigrating here, and this business. He was generous with his time and talking about the various menu items with me. I ultimately decided on chicken vindaloo. This dish was delicious! It was mildly spicy. The chicken was tender. The sauce ratio was excellent for the amount of chicken and potatoes included. It came with a side of rice that was perfectly fluffy. The owner recommended I try the garlic naan and I'm so glad he did. It was fluffy with the right amount of toasty and the perfect amount of butter and garlic. The food portions were generous. I ate there and took half home. It was enough for one more meal for me. This restaurant participates in Door Dash. They had several orders picked up while I was there.

    Great food! Very fluffy naan toasted to perfection, and the veggies samosas were so good that I ordered extra to go. The lamb korma was a bit on the drier side for the meat, most likely due to the cut and cooking style. The chicken vindaloo was great, the potatoes so tender alongside the chicken. When I come back, I hopefully will try their food with a bit more of a kick, it was a bit on the sweeter side in my opinion. The mango lassi was so good, it was very flavorful and not too much yogurt, like other Indian places would do it. I got chai (not pictured), and it came with no sweetener, which i thought was nice so you could adjust sweetest to your liking! The restaurant was pretty empty, and parking wasn't an issue after 6pm. I hope the restaurant gets more hype it deserves! I'd love to try the biriyani when I go back!

    If you are looking for halal Pakistani or Indian food, this is a great spot near Boston. The food is classic and good, the chicken seekh kabab and beef nihari were solid 8/10. The place is classic nostalgic Pakistani with glass covered tables. Our server was very helpful.
