    This is the spiciest naan on the planet.... unless you fancy licking Satan's butt hole up for the garlic instead!
    Erin E.

    Probably some of the worst Indian food I've had in the area. We got some lamb biryani and it was incredibly spicy. My husband loves heat and even he said it was too spicy to be enjoyable. I got butter chicken that was very cardamom heavy and completely lacked salt. Everybody there was very nice, but with it being as dead, as it was, we sat without being able to order additional items for quite a while It's in a great location, just feels like maybe we hit it on the wrong night.

    Chicken Tikka Masala

    The place was absolutely dead but we got our food super quickly which was great, did seem like they only had one guy working. I got chicken tikka masala and it was delicious, the amount of food you get is incredible considering it's not too pricey. Service could've been better, but once again, only one guy working.

    I really want to find a good Indian spot in A2 and had high hopes seeing the reviews. I ordered the chicken tikka masala with medium spice for $16 incl rice. Portion size was decent. Everything about the dish lacked flavor. The curry was runny and tasted like nothing. The chicken was tender but again, had no seasoning. I cannot stress enough how inauthentic and bland this dish was. It tasted nothing like the tikka masala I've had from other Indian restaurants. What a horrible disappointment. Will absolutely never order again.

    Still good! But unfortunately, didn't have the best experience tonight. My partner and I were raving to our buddy about this place and the three of us decided to grab dinner here. It's Saturday, busy night! Took awhile to get seats to dine in, but it was fine, we were excited for the food. Finally seated after about 5 minutes, we didn't get our menus, but it's okay, we already know what we're going to get... except, the waiter didn't come to us for another 15+ minutes. A big group of people were seated way before us and had their orders taken right away. I was waiting for him to finish taking their order so I can tell him we (been) are ready as well. Another waiter saw us and was apologetic about not bringing us a menu, but all good, it's been almost 20 minutes at this point, we're ready to order. All should be good! Nope, 2 out of the 3 dishes came out very lukewarm, and we ordered naan that didn't come out at all. We waited, until we were all done with our plates, and came to the realization that they have forgotten part of our order. We were still hungry but who knew how much longer it would take for the naan. Not worth it at this point. Our table was pretty much forgotten, warm food, missing item, no water refill. They were way busier compared to the time I was here last time; so I'll give them that. Not sure if I'll be back but food is still pretty good and priced fair for downtown AA.

    I live near Namaste Flavors and every day I walk past and smell the aromas that drift out of the restaurant, and it makes me so hungry each time. I finally got to try it this weekend and I am impressed! I got the chicken vindaloo, and it really packed a punch heat-wise, but it was so flavorful and made the experience so much better. We also got the mughlai chicken, and normally, I'm not a huge proponent of putting tree nuts in food, but the curry was fantastic. It provided a nice relief from the spicy vindaloo, and it was so good that after we ran out of rice I was eating it on its own. Although the mughlai chicken wasn't spicy, by no means was it a mild flavor. Lastly, we got the mango lassi as I always do at Indian restaurants. The mango flavor was pretty dominating, which I loved, but it was also really thick, thicker than what I've had at other places, and this made the yogurt flavor a little stronger. However, I still thought it was delicious.

    Chicken Biryani

    There aren't too many places that are open for a late dinner besides fast food which we've done already. We came across this restaurant since it closed at 10pm and decided to try it. There is street parking and a small lot as well. I saw on the menu that they offered dosa only to learn they were out of it. I am not familiar with Indian cooking but maybe they ran out of batter this late at night (around 8:30pm)? We ordered the chicken biryani mild (which the server placed as med), mughlai chicken mild and garlic naan. We asked if the dishes were spicy and they said they can cater the spice level. The menu doesn't have the usual red pepper emoji next to the dish to indicate if it is spicy. It is a very extensive menu. It was all good despite the spicy biryani and the chicken was tender. Service was decent. The restaurant decor was simple. It is in a house on a corner. We will return in the future to try out the dosas!

    Absolutely, should be on your checklist if you enjoy good service/taste. I will be back very soon!

    There was a dead bug in my samosa. Please avoid at all costs.

    There was a dead bug in my food. Eat there at your own discretion. We left as soon as we got our bug-filled food, so cannot speak to anything else.

    I was extremely impressed with the care of the employees and how delicious my food was…read more I'm in a season where I have to omit certain major allergens from my diet for safety reasons (allergens that are not easy to substitute or to eat out in general), and real seafood was able to go above and beyond to accommodate these allergies. We were able to call a few days prior so that they can make special side dishes that were Allergen friendly. We were celebrating our 13th anniversary and though I couldn't eat a lot of the special food When celebrating, everything still felt very special and the things that I could eat were absolutely phenomenal. I was very impressed. I would say this is a high 4, with one star down because even after talking to the manager and reminding the weight staff, the kitchen still brought me out two types of dairy with my appetizer, which led me to be a little paranoid the rest of the meal. After looking through the ingredient list which were provided promptly and graciously my trust was restored, but I always get a little bit nervous when it comes to allergies when I see that the staff in Kitchen and front staff are not communicating well. It was still a lovely meal, and I appreciate them going above and beyond to accommodate my allergens. I got the crabcake, surf and turf, a special request drink from the bar that was nonalcoholic, and a sorbet with fruit. I'm still dreaming about the crabcake and surf and turf. It was so good and cooked perfectly. I can't wait to try to re-create the crabcake at home. I was astounded at how delicious it was. I really enjoyed the fresh mango and strawberry in the salad that came out with a crabcake. Even though the crabcake sauce and the salad dressing both had dairy and were served with my appetizer, it was yummy without those sauces. It would've been nice if someone offered me an alternate sauce or had thought to tell me that they contain my allergy and I thought we were on the same page. I got a cherry limeade drink from the bar and it was very delicious. I don't normally get drinks but it was kind of fun to get something fruity and fun for a celebration. The bread was delicious and didn't contain the allergens so I was able to enjoy it without butter. I am not normally a sorbet girl and I probably wouldn't have normally ordered dessert here but since we were a celebrating, I wanted to try some thing sweet. I couldn't believe how good the sorbet was. It was a little rich, but it was so tasty. I think it would've been really excellent paired with a very light not overly sweet vanilla bean cake. It was so fruity and rich that it needed something to balance it out. I'm not complaining. It was excellent in a very nice end to the meal. Overall, 4.5 stars all of the stuff was lovely and it was nicely decorated for Christmas. Thank you so much for the lovely anniversary dinner!

The servers are not very friendly, helpful or welcoming. Service is very slow even on slow nights. No one seems to care either. Given the exceptional service at other restaurants it is a deterrent for returning. Drinks are reasonably priced and a good selection. For being scratch made they are not able to accommodate allergies well. Most things are marinated or prepped ahead. Besides Sushi or ordering plain noodles there isn't much I could order. My husband did enjoy the Burger and would order it again. I just wish there was more I could eat. For the Sushi its not anything outstanding. The flavor of the Crab Salad isn't our favorite. The Black Pearl Roll unfortunately, is not worth the pricing. $25 for a roll with mostly cucumber. It's also not very consistent in sizing. Once it was so large I could barely fit it in my mouth and the other times very small. If you plan to charge $25 for a Sushi Roll it should contain a good amount of Sushi. I can go across the street and get amazing Tuna Tartare for under $15 with plenty of Tuna.

We ordered to-go, and the food could have been ready in as few as 10 minutes. The employee taking my order asked if I wanted it that soon, or later, and I appreciated her accommodating my request for a bit later. Once the food was picked up and back home we dug into the bag. Flaky crab and plump shrimp were surrounded by pork sausage and baby potatoes. Our hands were dripping in the butter sauce by the time we finished, but we didn't mind. Even with the "no spice" seasoning level, we enjoyed the mild heat from the food. JJ's is a great spot for trying something new and one that I hope you'll check out soon too!

And then from there, she brings the entree's. Their beignet bread was delicious with the garlic butter (I even asked for seconds later on)!! Their salad was also really tasty (I got the lemon dressing one) and it comes with croutons that are just like the beignet bread but made in smaller sizes and slightly crispier.
