Testimonials

I continued to be wowed by the food here. We catered a special occasion dinner from Saar recently. The communication was flawless. Mr Singh was beyond fantastic to deal with - and the food was out of this world. Catering food for Indians on Diwali is not easy and everyone was super impressed. Huge huge amount of food in the medium and small size trays. We cannot wait to have their food again. The kebabs were the SOFTEST melt in your mouth amazing. The saag paneer was better than my grandmothers. The butter chicken had the kids asking for seconds. I could literally go on and on. A gem of a restaurant with fabulous food

I had a group catered lunchbox from Saar and it came with naan, rice, daal, paneer, and chicken curry. The ratio of starch to dish was perfect. :)
It was super delicious--very plush naan, all the sauces were flavorful, and the chicken was tender and not dry at all. I was a big fan of the daal, but it would be hard to choose a favorite.

Had a great dinner tonight at the restaurant. The staff was very professional and knowledgeable about their menu For starters the Gobi Manchurian was very crispy and tasty along with the mushroom achari. The entree dishes which included the tandoori salmon and the tiger shrimp along with the Kochi pepper chicken and the lamp chops were spectacular. It was the dessert that was out of this world especially the Shahi Tikra which I'd nickname the Indian Baklava.

Really enjoyed this place. All of the staff were SO friendly and helpful, and they totally nailed it on accommodating all of our various spice level requests perfectly. I really enjoyed my Butter Chicken! Loved the ambiance too. It was nice to see some not-so-traditional dishes on the menu, kept things more interesting than your run-of-the-mill Indian spot.
