Description:
- This wonderful Indian restaurant serves delectable Indian cuisine in an intimate ambiance enhanced by pale yellow walls and orange hued seating. Owner Anju Sharma named her restaurant 'Amma' meaning mother, to signify a cooking style which is reminiscent of an Indian mother's kitchen. The cuisine is authentic Indian with outstanding dishes such as the Bombay Bhelpuri, Kararee Bhindi, Fish Moileey, and Apricot-Filled Lamb Chops. Vegetarian and non-vegetarian tasting menus paired with appropriate wines including Indian wines are available along with a prix fixe lunch menu. Presided over by a friendly maître de, Amma provides an intensely satisfying experience.
