In Short
Tandoori specialties here cost so little and taste so tender it's hard to believe other places charge double. Seasoned lamb chops are the biggest splurge on the menu at $9.99. The chicken korma is a creamy blend of spicy meat, yogurt, tomatoes and herbs. Service is friendly and courteous, with every attempt made to keep the place neat and clean despite gritty surroundings.
