Sai serves authentic Punjabi cuisine with tandoor cooking a speciality. The spice range is broad, from minimal to high levels and vegetables forming the backbone of the menu. Wheat is the staple food of Punjabis; however, they do enjoy eating rice at festivals and other special occasions. When it comes to food, each region within Punjab has an entirely different preference, for example, people in Amritsar are particularly fond of stuffed parathas and milk products. The philosophy of life for many Punjabis is to eat, drink and make merry. They are lively people who are extremely fond of eating good food. In the preparation of Punjabi food, onion, ginger and garlic are used extensively to enhance the taste of the food.**NEW***SUNDAY BRUNCH 11am to 3pm, try Indian street food from different part of India with unlimited KADAK CHAI.****LUNCH****Now open for lunch Tuesday-Saturday 12-3pm.

Dressed up for Christmas and menu has many choices. Waiter was helpful so we didn’t order multiple courses which would have been too much food for us. Restaurant is a little worn and food quality was good, not excellent. Apple tart with ice cream was beautifully prepared. Appreciate the holiday ambiance to make it feel like a special night. Be ready for a loud environment when the place is hopping.

This is positioned as Japanese street food, so a small crowded space is in keeping with what one should expect. I've been four times now, and I've enjoyed every dish. Last night we sat directly across from the chef, so we saw the food being prepared. It's done with care and precision. I really enjoy this place. The service was efficient, so we had no trouble making it to the IMAX in time for a film after dinner.

Meeting our son and his wife for a birthday dinner. Food and service were excellent. The tiramisu was the best I’ve eaten since our honeymoon in 1988. Will definitely visit again.
