AI-generated summary
It's a small chain with locations across Manhattan, and which one you go to matters. The Cedar Street room gets the strongest praise, and the on the Upper East Side has its fans. People say stick to the Mughlai dishes and anything from the tandoor. Some found the too sweet, portions run small, and they charge extra for rice.
