Curry Junction, an Indian and Nepalese restaurant, offers traditional curry dishes, plus tandoori-style cuisine paired with freshly baked naan. Popular items at the restaurant include Tikka Masala, Korma and Momo.

“It’s a nice location, so we can reach out to a lot of other customers, as well,” co-owner Chuda Dhimal told CharlotteFive..
