We were looking for an indian restaurant after a day of great snorkeling experience in keywest in the memorial day weekend. Found this after a bit of back and forth as the restaurant didn't have a restaurant like hoarding or welcome gate. By the time we reached there it was pretty late and food was almost over. We were little disappointed and thought of coming back and then the owner said he would cook some food for us. It was pretty much one man show. The owner, the cook, the server, the waiter, the cashier and dealing with customer. We waited some time and finally got in. We were surprised that a white guy preparing indian food and running a business out of it. With that bit of curiosity, got introduced to Phillip and started having conversation with him, . How he spent time in Delhi, how he learnt indian cooking from the family he lived with in india. Pretty interesting stories all of that can't be described in review. Now the food.The chicken currys, the goat currys, the vegetable items in a normal indian restaurant are pretty much stereo-typed and they have specific set of spices that they use and there's not much difference from one restaurant to the other in terms of taste. Phillip prepares food they way we indians do at home. Very distinctive, no issues with your stomach and yet very tasty, and you don't get that elsewhere. Now we realized why the restaurant didn't look like one. It was almost 11.30 pm, had great conversation, great food and left the place with a very high enthusiasm of coming back. Cons : The price apparently is at the higher side($20). But then he creates a distinctive value by preparing indian fresh home food. Also theres no other indian restaurant as such and not a lot of indians in keywest to support restaurants. So economic viability may ask fo the price.

Best mimosa I have ever had! They give them to you in glasses that are basically goblets! I think they used an entire bottle of champagne for 2 glasses. I will go here every time I visit key west!

Great coffee and the best ham & cheese croissant I've ever had. The pastry options look delicious too. I might need to have a little dessert with my brunch. :)

Amazing food, all for $10 or less! Smoked Salmon, Croque-Madame, and French Hotdog are all delicious...
