    Tom Kha Kai
    Francisco V.

    Left Old San Juan on a Sunday and was struggling to find Indian food since I arrived back here in PR, so Yelp directed me here. Was surprised to see a mixed Thai and Indian restaurant - not really the most related set of cuisines but decided to go try it out. Ordered samosas and a Tom Kha Kai as those are my staples in any Indian and Thai restaurants respectively. Was surprised to see the samosas sliced in half - guessing it's more so for presentation but that was a first. They were pretty flavorful, but I expect a kick in my Indian food and this was not present. I was also told their green sauce (mint chutney) would have a kick and it was notably absent. The tamarind sauce was good but it was missing something that I still can't really identify. The Tom Kha Kai was not on the spicy side at all, and the sauce they gave me to tack on to it was mild - however it was one of the three best Tom Kha I have ever tried, which is saying a lot. I had Paneer Makhani for my main course and two things I noticed - I expected the color to be more towards red, and this was not. The second was the rice - yellow basmati, as if it was cooked with saffron. I may be a bit of a snob but I like my basmati to be white when I eat Indian food as I don't want anything else influencing the flavor. The curry was good, but it didn't have that velvety texture usually seen in Makhani dishes - probably due to a reduced tomato content. And it was definitely missing some heat. Service was great and consistent. There were two servers at all times checking in and refilling water, and they were overall very courteous. Ambiance is a tossup - paper handkerchiefs with the cutlery is a no-no for Indian food since it's saucy and can spill easy. You couldn't even cover your lap with what was offered. The music was one small thing looped over and over, so it was repetitive. And it was expensive. $28.00 for the Paneer Makhani was overkill. I don't even pay that much for it in the finest Indian restaurants in Miami! 3/5. Good food but misses the mark for the price being paid. Would go back for the Tom Kha, or if someone else was footing the bill.

    Ok! I only ordered Aloo Parata and puri for my kids. Must say never have I seen an aloo parata or puri like that. Both of them were almost an inch think and uncooked.

    The roti is not that good. Its more of thick bread.

    The indian food here is bit pricey. Alert- They will charge you 18% gratuity by default even for 1-2 people. Food- The lentil soup was really good. Creamy and delicious. The malai kofta is not that good. It has less gravy and bigger size koftas. The tandoori roti is not good either. The tomato sauce on the side with roti is actually better than the malai kofta gravy. Though the sauce portion is little. Overall- May be the thai cuisine is much better but the indian food is just below average for its taste, quality and price.

    Nothing yet!

    Go here if you're not hungry, because by the time you finally get your food, you will be starving. Long wait after sitting down. Food was OK.

    Worst Indian food I have ever tasted! So, without looking at the reviews inside we wnt by the stars. So we wondered how did Indians voted good stars for this horrible place and then figured out it must be for thai food or Americans who haven't tasted real Indian food must have given good stars. We ordered malai kofta- omg it was so tangy and sour and could not even take the gravy. So we did eat the kofta with naan leaving the gravy. They did give some tikka masala along with naan. Thought it tasted bland, it was better than the malai in the malai kofta. The spring rolls were decent and thai iced tea was nice. The one star is for those two item. I think they just use the thai sauces for Indian item. Next coming to paapadam, it was microwaved for heaven sake and it was not made well. They charged 3$ for half burnt papad. I thought it will be deep fried paapad, but no! On top of the agony, for a party of 2, they added 15$ gratuity of 7$ which took our bill over 50$ for one malai kofta, paapad, ice tea and naan. The taste was so bad that we had to eat ice cream to take it away.

    The service was good and the food very tasty. I had Gang Ped (Red Curry with Chicken and Shrimp) with rice. Highly recommend to anyone who loves Thai or Indian cuisine.

    Vianca made me a fan for life…read more We arrived really late after our flight and were scrambling to find somewhere to eat. St. Germain Bistro Bar happened to be right across from our Airbnb, and honestly it felt like we got lucky. Even though it was late, they seated us right away and helped us pull together two small tables so our family could sit comfortably. My kids were starving, so that alone was a huge relief. The portions for the kids' pasta and chicken nuggets were a little smaller than expected, but the flavor and quality were excellent. You could tell the food was made with care. I ordered the onion soup and the fried cheese with guava dip and wow. Absolutely delicious. The guava dip especially was incredible. I also had a mojito that was perfectly made. But what really made the night unforgettable was the kindness of the staff. My son had forgotten his inhaler and was having a hard time adjusting to the humidity. He was coughing a lot and clearly uncomfortable. Vianca noticed right away and went out of her way to help. She brought over honey and encouraged him to take a little shot with ginger and honey, then brought hot tea as well. She even suggested things like putting socks on him and using Vicks when we got back. When I mentioned that my kids are half Puerto Rican and their abuela already swears by those remedies, she just lit up and said, "Well you're home then, you already know what to do." That moment really stuck with me. The warmth, the care for kids, the genuine hospitality. It's exactly the kind of Puerto Rican kindness people talk about. The kitchen is small, so service can be a little slower, but it's absolutely worth the wait. The food is great, the drinks are great, and the people make the place special. If you're nearby, definitely stop in. Places like this are why people fall in love with Puerto Rico.

    Does NOT honor reservations. We reserved a table, and then watched another group of young men step…read moreinto the store and sit down at the table we had been promised. The hostess refused to kick them out. I overheard the group behind us who had made a reservation also be denied. After finally being seated, it took over an hour to get our food. The poulet was very good, but the bread we ordered was smeared with a red sauce where it been cut with an obviously dirty knife. At the end of the night, they gave us a free piece of cake on the house, which is the only reason why this review isn't one star. Also, our waitress was really nice and friendly, which raised the mood of the evening considerably. Other than that, though, I'm afraid I can't recommend this restaurant.
