“Love the decor in side room, super immersive & colorful. Had the Sunday champagne buffet - such a great deal - for 2 buffets and 4 glasses of champagne our bill was only $45! You can’t get a deal like that anywhere anymore! Love their sweets - incredible Carrot Pudding & Gulab Jamun were some of the best I’ve ever had, but also the mango pudding (maybe called something else but really good)! Attentive service, clean and fresh. CJ was super nice, love to support a small business!”
