So that gives you an idea of the inside, they have a mini-store with some Indian snacks, which are cool. The people there were very nice and accommodating. Each member of my family got something different and it was all banging good. No questions on this. I had the lamb korma and it was tasty and tender. Don't let him talk you off your normal spice though, he said they are hotter than other restaurants but they are not. My only real knock is the price. For north west Ohio they are expensive. AND, unbeknownst to us the rice was an extra charge beyond your dish.... Uh, what else I gonna eat with it bra!

My family has eaten a few times from here, taking carry out each time. Ordering is convenient as they both have a website and you can call in. The food is absolutely delicious! My family has eaten the following items: 1) Chicken Tika-Masala: Savory and spicy dish... has the right amount of kick to it: We love it! 2) Chicken Pakora: my personal favorite dish, its an appetizer. It is so good! It's salty, it's crunchy! Yum! 4) Butter Chicken: Families favorite dish.

We had a range of appetizers from samosas to padpi chaat. All we tried were delicious. Our entrees ranged from Tikka Masala to Biryani to Curries, the Biryani and Curries came with a choice of meat- adding Garlic Naan bread made the perfect meal. Don't be afraid of the spice - the medium was easy. I'll step it up to spicy next time - but not 'Indian Spicy'. The food is all homemade by the owners and incredible.

It appears that the recipes are a little different now. I ordered chicken korma, very spicy, and it was just OK. The chicken chunks are a lot bigger now. Bigger chunks take more time to cook, making the chicken very dry. The veggies and sauce are also different. The dish was more mild than spicy. I remember a lot of Chinese restaurants doing this. I guess the chefs are trying to protect us from ourselves... My dining partners ordered chicken tikka masala and had the same comments. One other person ordered the mixed grill (tandoori grill???) and again, everything was really overcooked and dry. There was no wine or beer available. We asked if we could bring in either and were told, "no." They were very polite about it, but this is not illegal in Ohio, at least, the attorney we were dining with said it was perfectly legal to do this. I know I've dined in establishments where there was no liquor, beer or wine available and patrons were allowed to bring in their own. Casa Que Pasa in Athens, Ohio, comes to mind, but that was a loooooong time ago and, for some reason, my memories of meals there are kind of foggy anyway :). The restaurant does have the right to charge a "corkage fee" if they desire. Anyway, not sure wine would be my preference for Indian food, but beer!!! Nothing goes better with hot, spicy food than a beer that's indigenous to that country (Taj Mahal or Kingfisher!!!). Of course, the kitchen needs to get the spice lever right. For an appetizer, we did order some vegetable pakoras and they were really great. I believe we also ordered some onion kulcha too and that was great. Anyway, not the worst I've had, but not what was being offered at the Airport location. The place is young and there are probably some things to work out. I'll definitely try this again.
