We had the chai, garlic naan, mango lassi, Malabar fish curry, all excellent. The samosas, baigan bhartha and dal tadka were also good though not as high on my list for next time. My kid, who likes blander foods, enjoyed the dal. Great service, clean bathrooms, convenient stop along the I-5. This is our new go-to stop.
