Have you ever had Indian food so bland that an english muffin might be considered spicy? Welcome to the Red Hook Curry house. It has all the potential, but delivered with "Meh." The best part of the meal was the garlic nan. I'm a vindaloo kind of guy. I expect it to be spicy. I was woefully underwhelmed. I took home the leftovers and fixed it. Granted, the lamb was nice and tender, and the rice was well cooked. But the overall feeling was, "whatever". My wife had a vegetarian dish with chickpeas, again, lacking in any spice. She brought it home and added some flavors. This was my third visit to the Red Hook Curry House, and probably my last. The place felt closed already. I imagine they do a decent take out business, because I certainly don't want to sit in there again. And what was with the bright green sauce for the papadam?! That food color went out in the 50's! Alas...

Namaste Indian Restaurant has become my go-to spot for food in Saugerties. Every time I order from…read morehere, the dishes are consistently rich, well-seasoned, and satisfying. You can really taste the care that goes into the cooking, and it keeps me coming back. I especially love their lamb dishes. No matter which one I'm in the mood for, they're always tender, well-spiced, and full of flavor. The clay oven dishes are also a great choice, and their biryani options are just as solid. Across the board, the food feels hearty and comforting without being overly heavy. The prices are reasonable, especially considering the quality, and the portions are generous enough to feel like you're getting good value. The space itself is large, clean, and well ventilated, which I really appreciate. It's nice to be able to enjoy a full meal and not leave smelling like food afterward. Overall this is a reliable, flavorful spot that hits the mark every time. If you're in the area and craving Indian food, it's an easy recommendation.

The staff is always professional and friendly and happy. Reservations are strong here but everytime my dining companions and I walk-in, they always make space for us. The Falafel here is the best, falafel we've had... and we've eaten a lot of falafel. It is delicately crispy and light interior. The shepherd's salad is bright and fresh. Tonight there was a shrimp orchiette special: the shrimp was tender (perfectly cooked) and the feta added perfect counterpoint! We are big fans of the flatbread and always enjoy the Persian roasted vegetables. Very special! They are seasoned so nicely - warm, not heavy, just enough! The dessert that rounded out our night was the Turkish Coffee and Hazlenut tart. GAH!!! Let's just say, they knew what the assignment was.... and that nailed it! Excited to return!

However, we were met with an experience that really soured us on the restaurant. We arrived at 5:00 and were seated one table away from the window. Then another couple came in, likely had a reservation for the window seat, and were seated beside us. A little close, to be sure, since every other table was open, but we didn't mind. The guy at the window, though, obviously had a big problem with it, because (after first complaining to the host about the volume of the music -- "too loud") he immediately returned to the host stand to complain that we were seated too close, and that they wanted more space. Okay, I get it. But if you want more space, then YOU move. You don't ask the host to move other guests. We were comfortably seated and ready to order when the host approached us with a made-up story that we were mistakenly seated in a reserved table, and could we please move one table over. In hindsight we should have left right then and there. I understand that the host was attempting to defuse an absurd request from an entitled individual, but it truly put a damper on our dining experience. Toward the end of the evening, I suggested to the host that one guest's entitlement shouldn't cost another guest their seat. She was apologetic and obviously just wanted to keep window-man happy. She's young, and I don't fault her -- a more seasoned host might have found a way to smooth things over -- a genuine apology, a complimentary appetizer -- rather than leaving us to feel like an inconvenience. Honestly, I'm more irritated by the ridiculous customers who had us moved. I had a lot I wanted to say to them, but my wife diplomatically insisted that I refrain. We considered leaving a Yelp review, but that doesn't help anybody, and as I said, our past experiences at Cinnamon had all been very positive. In the end, it was just an uncomfortable situation that made me, at least, feel like a second-class customer in a restaurant I'd genuinely looked forward to returning to.

I don't consider it "fast food" but sure, it's an assembly line bowl place, similar to the "chipotle" concept. I've now tried both the Albany (Stuyvesant plaza) location and the OG - Coxsackie one. Both were amazing. The big bowl at Coxsackie was ~$12 and it totally fills me up. Tastes delicious, and you can customize it, and I don't feel they nickel and dime ya, with up charges. Everything tastes fresh and the portion for price is on par and great for what you get. Pita is included with every bowl. Now, I can't wait to taste and try the entire menu and zero in on my favorite bowl, or do a make your own. Thanks Simones. You'll see me a bunch. If it was walking distance or closer, I'd go weekly!
