Dear friends,

Hope you're having a great start to 2021! After a much needed R&R break, we are once again open for takeout and curbside pickup / delivery (via Doordash and Grubhub). The patio is also open for those who wish to dine-in. However, please note that we will still serve meals in takeout containers.

Hope to see some of your smiling faces! ❤️

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Just a friendly reminder that we will not be open for the weekend. We will re-open on Tuesday, Dec 1.

Stay safe!

11/12/2020

Dear friends,

After a lot of thought, we've made the difficult decision to close for Thanksgiving this year. With the madness of 2020, our staff has been greatly reduced and we just didn't feel like we could safely handle a large crowd, nor could we come up with a satisfactory packaging solution that would allow for you to enjoy the meal as we would like for you to. This decision didn't come easy to us and we will greatly miss seeing you and your families.

We wish you a happy holiday and hope to serve you next year.

Danny & Padma and the rest of the Kalachandji's family.
