Before you head over
Practical guidance on seating, operating hours, and dish spice levels to help you plan your visit.
Check late-night hours before heading over
Operating hours run from 9:00 AM until 3:00 AM daily rather than round-the-clock, making it ideal for late-night feeds up until closing time.
Plan on takeaway during peak periods
Indoor seating is extremely limited with just a few tables, so consider grabbing your food to go or dining on nearby outdoor public benches.
Watch out for whole green chillies
Dishes like the chicken biryani come packed with whole green chillies that carry substantial heat; pick them aside if you prefer a milder meal.
