This restaurant should have an International Award. They serve traditional Mughlai food and there is truly nothing like it. Order the Sikandari Raan, the Murgh Wajid Ali, the Murgh Malai Tikka, Kumbh Makki Masala, and of course an assortment of naans and rotis. The cuisine is utterly heavenly. Do not accidentally go to the one in Elante. The two do not compare. The decor is fun, there is a gigantic tree in the middle of the restaurant and lanterns peppered about. The staff is friendly and the copper cups are gorgeous
