There was a buy 2 .eat for a discounted price. I asked which meals since part of board which was sitting on floor was covered by another sign I ordered 2 non " Special meals. She asked if garlic bread was wanted yes... Did we want to drink something "Yes" we do grabbed a soda I asked for a cup to share the soda ( should not be drinking soda. She opened a bag with the gloved hands that had taken money from others and handed the cups with fingers inside cups ( that was disgusting) When seated to wait for food ( they do bring it to table), I noted plastic plates and plastic ware were given to customers across the way. Their food was brought to them in take away boxes. I don't like eating in plastics at a restaurant. We had the food topped and brought it home I had the Butter chicken, it had some flavor not enough to order again. The goat dish Curry Goat-- had bones (no flavor) None Perhaps I wanted a Burst of flavor that was to sing about. Perhaps because the goat dish was prepared "mild" heat would have given flavor Other restaurants in the area do serve on real dishes The setting was plain that was ok its in a College area. No smiles no greetings oh well. EDIT I just read other reviews the negative ones stated the same things I noted

I have been here several times now and as much as I want to like it, I just have not enjoyed myself…read morehere. I get that I'm older, and probably not the clientele they are looking for, but they have never ever been attentive, even when like yesterday I was the only one sitting at the bar. They genuinely make me feel like they don't want me on there and am more of a nuisance to them. Fooswise, I have can't really say anything great about it. It's pretty basic, you can get better Indian food from so many other places in the metro area. I was hoping that their menu might be more adventurous and interesting but it was pretty run of the mill. It's not bad food by any means, but it's not going to impress you either. As far as their cocktail menu goes, I don't think they have a true cocktail lead, the drinks range from basic and uninspired to kind of gross. Being from Kerala I was interested in the Kerala Mule, and boy did I regret it. Either they don't like South Indians and purposely made it terrible or they need to taste their drinks before putting it on the menu. The more standard drinks were very well made. Aesthetically this is a beautiful spot. They really brought the colors and the design. The DJ stand being an old Indian motorcycle is a great touch. The pool table in the center of the restaurant is lovely as is the colorful umbrellas that adorn the ceiling. Visually an eye catching spectacle that really heightens the experience. At night this turns into more of a club feel, the dark lighting and the DJ can make it a fun night out. Bonus point for having an old Aishwarya Rai movie on the big screen. So while I might not specifically come for the food, I would come and have a more classic cocktail or beer and either start or end my night here, assuming I wasn't ignored the whole time.

The one downside is both the butter chicken and the malai chicken were sweet! So was the green chutney that came with the samosas. I don't know if that's because of the regional style, but we like those dishes more savory- more salt and spice flavors, little to no sweetness. Fresh brightness is ideal for the chutney, again, no sweetness. Nevertheless we'll be back! We did pickup which took a little bit but everything was warm.

The truth is, I don't want to share. I will hoard my precious bowls of butter chicken and forget all decorum. There is something beguiling about this sauce... and yes, I realize I'm talking about food. But you have to try this dish to understand my devotion. It is about more than the flavor which is incredibly layered, but it's so silky and rich that I could probably drink it by the cupful. Yes, I'm talking about food, don't look at me! Let me just eat in peace, with a giant spoon and a bib. I will even use a veil to hide my shame. The service is always friendly and lovely, and I think they might be a little worried when the tall white lady comes in all wild eyed and hungry. The ambiance is fine, as far as I know, my singular mission is to obtain the butter chicken, I am not sure if they have tables and chairs. The menu looks incredible, with recipes that are probably just as delicious as the butter chicken. But here is my problem... if I try another dish that is just as good as the BC, then what do I do?! I will be back here with another confession even more delicious.
