The food here is absolutely amazing!! No wonder it’s always full every night. The manager is really welcoming and gave us complementary dessert. The food is more suited for the general public so don’t be afraid to specify if you want spicy

I recently dined at Cloves Indian Cuisine, and it was a delightful experience from start to finish. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted warmly by the owner, Sayid, who made us feel genuinely welcome and ensured we were seated promptly. Throughout the evening, Sayid personally checked in with us several times, adding a thoughtful and personal touch to the service.
I ordered the lamb marsala, and it was excellent. The dish had just the right amount of heat—enough to be flavorful without overwhelming the palate. The lamb was tender and lean, avoiding the fattiness that can sometimes accompany this cut. It was clear that care had been taken in both preparation and presentation.
The service was top-notch—attentive without being intrusive—and the ambiance struck a perfect balance: lively and energetic, yet never chaotic or noisy. It’s the kind of place where you can enjoy a vibrant atmosphere while still holding a conversation.
I would absolutely recommend Cloves Indian Cuisine to others and look forward to returning. It’s a great spot for anyone seeking authentic Indian flavors paired with exceptional hospitality.
