Visited this new restaurant for lunch yesterday and had the masala dosa. I was immediately a fan!…read moreThe dosa was the perfect texture, not too soft not overly crispy! The restaurant offers a large variety on their menu and I will definitely be back to try their other offerings. It's a simple set up, walk in order and grab a seat..first come first serve.

Bawarchi Biryanis is a three star experience for me -- and honestly, the food alone could push it…read morehigher, but there are too many other factors holding it back. Let's start with the good: the food is genuinely amazing. Bold flavors, solid portions, and worth seeking out. However, I'd strongly recommend ordering to go rather than dining in, and come prepared for some hurdles along the way. The customer service is rough -- and that's putting it mildly. It doesn't seem like anyone here has ever been introduced to customer service training, basic hospitality, or even common courtesy. What makes it bittersweet is that you can look some of the staff in the eyes and tell they're genuinely trying -- they just haven't been given the tools or guidance to pull it off. That falls on management. The restaurant itself also needs some serious love. The ambiance is on the rough side and the space could benefit from reinvestment -- remodeling, fresh decor, some TLC. The bar area in particular has a lot of untapped potential that isn't being utilized. The restaurant is a decent size, but it's clear that management and financial reinvestment haven't been prioritized. If you're willing to overlook the experience of being there and just focus on the food, it's worth it. Order to go, be patient, and enjoy the flavors at home.

Every time I've ordered the lunch combination, usually chicken for me, I've gotten a variety of chicken and vegetarian dishes that usually includes a biryani, a curry, a dal, naan, a side, and some kind of dessert. This food is good, authentic, and very reasonably priced. Service is quick and polite. The lobby is clean and simple; if I had one point of feedback it would be that the TV is a little too loud. It's always got Bollywood or Indian music videos going. The TV is unnecessary in my opinion.

Did you know that India has the largest vegetarian population in the world? Studies show around…read more20-39% of Indians are vegetarians, a higher rate than most other nations. Takeout needed and this place has always caught my eye. They share a parking lot with Sprouts so I've been wanting to stop in. I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala ($19.99) and the Khatti Dal ($10.99) for takeout. First of all, that chicken tikka masala was fire. It was aromatic, fragrant, and the spice level was perfect. The khatti dal on the other hand, it wasn't for me. Not to say it was bad, I just didn't quite care for it. Since it was a takeout order, I can't comment too much about the service but this place is massive. Plenty of seating, lots of parking, and great food. I would definitely order from here again.

Not Recommended: food just OK, inconsistent service, and cleanliness concerns…read more We'd driven by this restaurant several times and finally decided to give it a try. Before going, we checked Yelp and were encouraged by its 4.0-star rating. Food Three of us ordered Chicken Tikka Masala, Chicken Vindaloo, Butter Chicken, and Garlic Naan. Unfortunately, even though we arrived right at opening, they were already out of both of their popular biryanis. The garlic naan was decent but nothing memorable. The Chicken Tikka Masala and Butter Chicken were both flavorful with a nice spice level. The Chicken Vindaloo was another story. While the sauce was good, the chicken itself tasted "off"--not spoiled, but old enough that I chose not to finish it. Cleanliness After our meal, I noticed that the restaurant had received five violations on its most recent county health inspection, conducted about a month ago. While I can't say whether that had anything to do with the chicken, it certainly didn't inspire confidence. The restroom was even more concerning. The sinks and toilets were dirty, both towel dispensers were empty, and the odor suggested it hadn't been cleaned recently. A neglected restroom doesn't leave a good impression about the overall operation. Service On the positive side, the owner/chef was friendly and happy to chat with us. Unfortunately, the rest of the service was disappointing. We spent about 2 1/2 hours there despite being the only dine-in customers, although there were several DoorDash pickups. Our server rarely smiled or engaged with us, spoke so quietly that we often had to ask her to repeat herself, never offered to refill our water glasses, and initially brought a single check after we'd requested two separate checks. She corrected it after we pointed out the mistake. Atmosphere The dining room is attractively decorated and has a pleasant ambiance. Value Prices were reasonable for the portion sizes. The Chicken Tikka Masala and Chicken Vindaloo were each $15.99, and the Garlic Naan was $3.99. Overall Unfortunately, the cleanliness issues, slow and inattentive service, and disappointing Vindaloo outweighed the positives. With so many good Indian restaurants in the area, I can't recommend Passage to India and won't be returning.
