TLDR: chicken tikka masala was delicious, chicken tender…read more I've gotten takeout from this place several times and always thought it was just good. But this past time I got takeout, the chicken tikka masala really blew me away. The flavor was very rich and well developed, without just a surface level flavor of tomato. Each bite of chicken was also very tender. To be fair I haven't had Indian food in a while and was really craving it but I was pleasantly surprised. Garlic naan could've been a bit more garlicky but was very good texturally, nice and chewy. The parking garage entrance is right next door (to the right of the restaurant) and you can get validated inside. If you're getting takeout, they text you a link you have to prepay through before they start preparing the food which is a bit annoying, but I get it.

I went all the way from Marietta to Midtown to experience Tabla first hand as I had heard about it…read moremultiple times. This is the summary of my experience there: 1) Ambiance 3/5: The place from outside looks contemporary and chic. The bar looks inviting but as you enter the dining area, the place is dated. The decor looks shabby and I feel they should renovate for they have a reputation to maintain 2) Service 3/5: This was a hit and a miss for me. Though they are gracious enough to validate your parking, the service was at times good but at times slow and bad. One person was good at suggestions but the other person was really lazy. I went their for my birthday but they took about 10 minutes to get me a candle which was disappointing to say the least. 3) Food 4/5: This is where they excel. Although everything was pricey. The taste made up for it. We had: a) kaala khatta : This is basically shikanji but was refreshing b) mango chili mojito: My wife loved it. It tasted like you were eating raw mango with salt and chili powder. c) palak patta chaat - it was crispy and flavorful d) Chicken curry: Loved the taste. The accompanying rice was so less that it looked like a joke e) Chur chur naan and garlic naan: Pricey and ok f) Carrot halwa with ice cream: The combination was good but carrot halwa in general was ok. Tasted like the heated store bought frozen halwa 4) Value for money 3/5: Really pricey. The taste was look but for the amount, everything was pricey I would only return if I a really craving for Indian food with nothing in the vicinity and someone else is paying. The good: 1) Food and flavor Not so Good: 1) Decor 2) Prices 3) Service

The buffet was constantly refreshed, we never had to wait for anything. The restaurant was very busy, speaking to how popular and good it is, but it didn't feel cramped and the decorations were engaging without being too much.

The interior is nice, you can watch the employees make naan through a big glass window and the area clearly looks very clean and well-kept. The garlic naan was probably the best I've ever had in the US. I had the lamb tikka masala also, and we got a lot of lamb plus the sauce was delicious. Not as spicy as I prefer , but that's okay. Definitely reasonable food and taste for the price plus service. Overall: amazing Indian food spot in Midtown with top-notch naan, good service, and good food. Would definitely recommend.

Hooray! A genuinely refreshing addition to our West Midtown rotation is here - and it's de-licious!…read more We planned our visit to give time for any opening friction points to smooth out, because we wanted to love this place right from the start. An Indian fusion tasting menu? Yes please! I'm glad we did, because our overall experience was really good. Firstly, in addition to the tasting menu, they have a great range of dishes and some happy hour specials too. The only less-than-awesome moment was our arrival. We were first in line at the host stand, at the very beginning of dinner service, with a reservation. However, we had to wait as a group behind us was welcomed and seated. The host was the only person all evening who wasn't warm or welcoming - it was a chilly arrival experience, with parking validation friction and would have put me off from the start if the servers hadn't saved it from there on out. We were seated close to the pass, which was a fun spot to watch both the kitchen and front of house teams at work, as well as a comfy booth from which to observe the rest of the space (including snooping at other diners' plates - for inspiration, of course). The server seemed surprised that we (as first-timers) went straight to the tasting menu, but quickly got organized and the drinks were with us within a few minutes. She was very present, explained everything really well, and handled my weird ingredient questions and preferences super well. The food was ahmahzing. 13 dishes in just over an hour - phew. Favorites and standouts included: - Green Papaya Salad: fresh, tangy and crunchy - Crispy Broccoli: vegetables never tasted this good. - Potato Dosa: too filling for a tasting menu, but the second-best bite on the menu - Dal Makhni: black lentils, creamy-dreamy and the best dish of the night. - Turmeric Fish: no idea what fish it was, but it was shockingly good. - Sticky Date Cake: yes, this is the British-originated sticky toffee pudding of my dreams, and beats anything I've had in the UK. Huge compliments to our server (Brett - she was amazing), the kitchen and to the management, who were very present all evening, checking in with subtlety and never overdoing it. I'm going to have to wait a few weeks to stop feeling so full, then I'll be back for a tour of the rest of the menu. I can't wait to bring out of town visitors; Ghee has brought West Midtown the type of southern-hospitality-meets-global-cuisine moments I have been hoping for. Welcome to Atlanta, team Ghee!

The food is solid and deserves 4 stars, but when you factor in the price, 3 stars is more like it…read more In summary, good food but overpriced. We ordered the 13-course $65 per person tasting menu, plus one additional dish. This is what we sampled: 5 Stars (Excellent): Crispy Broccoli 4 Stars (Very Good): Yellowfin Tuna Bhel, Chicken Tikka Masala, Saag Paneer, Dal Makhni, Tumeric Marinated Fish 3.5 Stars (Good): Green Papaya Salad, Samosa Chaat, Potato Dosa 3 Stars (Average): Kerala Lamb, Garlic Naan, Sticky Date Cake, Chai Ice Cream Sandwiches, Potato Samosas We paid $400 for a 4-person meal (20% tip, 13-course $65 tasting menu for 4, one additional entrée, one mocktail, water, no alcohol). If they had charged us 20% less, I'd give them four stars instead of three. We won't be returning to this good yet overpriced restaurant.

Botiwalla is one of the fast causal restaurants on the main floor food hall of Ponce City Market…read more You order at the counter, and can sit within their space, or "to go" if you sit in the main hall. The rest of my group had ordered from another restaurant, so I picked my order up from the counter space. The menu is a good length, sandwiches, salads, sides, sodas, and a couple alcoholic drink options. I had the smashed potatoes, the fish sandwich, and their raspberry/lime soda. Everything was fantastic, very flavorful, ingredients balanced. My niece had not wanted to order as she was unsure about whether she'd like the flavors, and she does not do spicy. She loved everything. The potatoes have a light kick of spice, I would put them in the flavorful category over spicy, Could not be happier with my food hall choice.

You order at the counter, receive a number, and seat yourself. The decor was bright, and combined with the upbeat music, the atmosphere was lively. FOOD: Maharja Lamb Burger (5/5) - Two lamb sliders. So wonderfully seasoned and juicy. No gamey taste that is usually associated with lamb at all. Crispy Masala Fish Roll (5/5) - Fish perfectly cooked, wrapped in a soft, hot naan. Excellent flavors. How could I complain? No notes. SERVICE: Food came out pretty fast after we ordered, even though it was pretty busy in there. The person who brought out our food was also super friendly and struck up a conversation with us. TLDR// Easily one of the best meals I had in Atlanta. Sad that I can no longer eat here when I leave.
