A southern outpost of the Shaker Heights original, this well-appointed eatery offers a solid lineup of classic Indian fare, including curries, tandoori dishes, and spicy vindaloos, along with many meat-free options. Besides the standard menu, midday diners can check out the lunch buffet, and on Monday evenings, a vegetarian buffet is a popular draw.
