    Chicken empanadas
    Christina A.

    Beautiful view and great food. I loved the sandwiches on Naan - I was a little hesitant but these were amazing!! Service was good and the interior is adorable. Great place to stop and admire the view - we were seated outside and really enjoyed it. Don't skip the appetizers- we got the chicken empanadas and they were soooo good!!

    I just went here for the first time this past weekend for brunch and it was so yummy everyone kept talking about how they wanted to come back. The only downside was that they were short staffed so we had limited options as to what drinks we could order. We ordered a mix of omelets, benedict's, waffles, and classic 2 egg breakfast. The omelet and waffle were the stars of the show. My only complaint is that the home fries weren't that great but the egg benedict itself made up for it.

    First off, if exorbitant pricing is a concern, this place might not be your cup of tea. Pun intended. Prices are steep with a cup of tea running you $5, and no, there are no free refills offered. That's an insane markup! Secondly, the average to meager portion sizes don't align with the expensive cost either. I ordered an egg and cheese with crispy bacon on naan. It came with their homemade potato chips which I found kind of odd (who wants to eat potato chips with their breakfast?). The interior is dark and intriguing; it feels like you've stepped back in time quite honestly. Our nice server, Olivia, tended to our table, and kindly grabbed me more hot water (on the house) so I could extend the life of my green tea bag. It's nice that there is free transient docking offered literally in their backyard; that encouraged us to eat breakfast there in the first place. After our experience though, if the prices are not adjusted, I just don't see us going back.

    My part of the bill
    Brittany S.

    Went for a birthday dinner for a friend and the bill was split 3 ways but even tho we all have a tip included on each bill (which was just over 15%) my tab got hit for an extra $10! I called the restaurant and they said they would look into it but never heard back! So clearly the waiter changed my tip to give himself a full 20% on just my part of the bill. The food is mediocre in my opinion, chapel grille in Cranston is way better and worth the money. The prices here were a bit over the top for what u get. The waiter would disappear and never even came to check on our table to see how we were liking the food which annoyed me because I wanted to ask for extra dressing on the side but never saw him again to ask. I personally wouldn't go back, nothing on the menu really stuck out and flavor wise (I tried a little of everyone dish) it was just all lack luster and boring. And $8 for a side salad that only had tomato's and some shredded carrot was insane! I think restaurant impossible needs to do recon on this place cuz it's lacking. Maybe Bristol folk think it's good for a local place but the service and prices r just not good. The ambience is kinda dimly lit, we for some reason were sat near the door and would get a gust of cold air followed by intense heat which was annoying. The place was quiet and barely anyone there and they sat us right up front which was odd. This is my part of the bill was more than the other twos bills. I paid for myself, my mom and part of the birthday girls meals. The other two girls paid for themselves and part of the birthday girls. Their bills came to $49 each and we all did a $10 tip. But somehow I got hit with an extra $10! My bill came to $108.28 but my bank account was hit for $118.28 Both the other girls with their tips came to $59 each and nothing extra was added to theirs. I called a few days later after the visit to tell them I was being charged more money, the girl took my name and card number down and said someone would call me back by the next day after they located my bill.... No one ever called me! I put a dispute in with my bank!

    So as a townie I tend not to visit this place that often as it's a tourist destination. Well, my hunch was right the food was just average, You're really just paying for the ambience. The pulled chicken sandwich is not really pulled chicken but chunks and some dried up scraps. Our waitress had a sour face the entire time and just could not wait for us to leave so she could go home I can assume.

    I was in town for business and DeWolfs was right next door so I decided to try it out. The food was delicious. The atmosphere was awesome. The bar tender were friendly It is a very old building and you can feel the history on the inside. Definitely recommend.

    Shaved steak sandwich
    Robert S.

    During the pandemic, we had a nice dinner meal outside in the covered patio area. You can still see the water and the nice view. The blackened salmon was good. The shaved steak sandwich was a winner. The Manchurian cauliflower app was also nicely done. The restaurant has an Indian influence on many of its dishes, as you can see by many of their plates. They use Naan bread. The setting and the food make this place a solid choice in Bristol.

    A wonderful lunch on the deck overlooking the water. The food was amazing! Especially the shrimp and vegetable Pakora and the Seafood Stew. Indoors it's warm and cozy but the food.....! Delicious!

Maybe there's another lot I didn't see in the back? But the restaurant itself is beautiful. Lots of wooden features that don't necessarily give off "Indian restaurant" but was still nice to look at all the same. There's a decent amount of seating and a large bar where they also keep games. I really liked the music they were playing as well. I constantly found myself dancing along to it. For food I had the chili baby corn for an appetizer, chicken saag, and cheese naan. Also had a Limca to drink which are always wonderful. The baby corn was amazing! The portion was generous and I loved the chili sauce. It was appropriately dressed and fried to perfection. Chicken saag was also excellent. I prefer mine a little creamier but I loved the fresh taste and generous pieces of chicken. The saag itself was properly spiced and came with a generous portion of basmati rice. Finally, the cheese naan was appropriately priced and crispy with a generous portion of cheese. Was it some of the best Indian food I've ever had? Absolutely! It was right up there and I hope to stop by their lunch buffer sometime soon. I will say that the service was a little slow and the waiters didn't check in as much as I'm used to. But that didn't hinder the exceptional quality of the restaurant.

The staff was extremely nice and attentive, it was a Friday night and the place was full with many families dining in which was cool to see. With that, service was a bit slower but we were checked on consistently which was appreciated. For apps we got samosas and the fried onion dish. Both delicious. The green (mint-yogurt?) sauce that came with the samosas was delicious. The fried onion dish was good, I enjoyed the curry leaves and spices in them, they essentially felt like the Indian street food version of onion rings. The curry: I got Goat Chettinad and my friend got Lamb Rogan Josh. Both delicious. Goat Chettinad has a thick curry with coconut milk in the base with turmeric, ginger and all the other great spices that come along. The goat pieces were a little lackluster, not as much meat and a lot of bone. I would get a different meat next time, though, I'm sure this is variable from order to order as goat usually is. The lamb rogan Josh, which I was able to try, was delicious. Bright flavor, tangy, deep ruby red curry and the lamb pieces were plentiful and tender. A slight smokiness from black cardamom, packed with Kashmiri chili, it had such great depth of flavor. Eaten along with some garlic naan which was light, fluffy and had some slight charring around the edges which is exactly how I like it. Also, the parathas. If you haven't had these before, order them. Flakey, buttery and delicious. I've made them at home before and these are better than anything i can muster up! (Probably on account of more butter.. Makes everything better). The curry was quite heavy on the oil/ghee, so be mindful if you're sensitive to that. Also, I enjoy spice, but for rogan Josh which has a kashmiri chili paste base, be careful ordering "spicy". Or if you're a medium person, you may want to go mild. I liked their "medium" for rogan Josh and the "spicy" for the Chettinad but I enjoy spice. I'd recommend trying this spot out, I'll definitely be back.

Perhaps it's improved since I visited, but it's a pass for me based on experiences I've had.
