The waitress recommended it because it was cheaper to order that than what we were doing all the cart. I really appreciated that! We had the Cheese Marsala, Pineapple Chicken Tikka, Rice, Naan, and an appetizer. Everything was rich and creamy, delicious definitely would go back.More infoIndia's Tandoori$$$$• Indian• Mid-Wilshire•5
