Not a good place to eat, especially if you're wanting authentic Indian food, expecting good service, or even expecting decency. Also, the restaurant doesn't look like anything in the photos you see, they are fake.
As we entered the restaurant, the guy confirmed that we needed a table for 4. To my absolute horror, he took a couple of empty two seaters and joined them at the table of a family of 4 who are still dining. I have never experienced a restaurateur combining two tables to merge perfect strangers, unless of course the food being served is at a wedding, funeral or a birthday party - and you are getting it for free. When I asked how this is even a thing, he argued that it isn't a problem and pointed at two seaters joined to form tables of 6 and 8, saying that he can't seat us there. I look around and see 2 people sitting at the other 4 and 6 conjoined tables, but of course they aren't the same color as us. This is a classic case of reverse racism and stereotyping.
I was about to walk out, but the kids hungered and we stayed. I asked the family who was still eating if they are ok with this, and they politely said yes. Feeling uncomfortable invading their privacy, we waited until they were done, and sat at the table of 8, with nobody to show up for the rest of the hour that we were there. So obviously, the claim that he cannot give us a table of 6 or 8, was proven wrong.
Next, the food. The quantity is small, which was expected. Are two dishes enough for a couple? No. We ordered 3 dishes, and still fell short. Kids accommodated themselves in a single dish, but even the other two were not enough for adults. When asked if he has Daal, the guy jumps to Daal Tadka. I said Makhani, and he says they make it as Chana Daal, so we have to take Tadka. Have you ever heard of a Chana Daal Makhani? This is basically deception.
The food arrives. Zero salt in everything. When we protested, he claims that this is how the French like to eat. Instead of accepting the cook's mistake, the guy argues back to unnecessarily defend the mistake. Every French restaurant we have eaten at, has had more salt than the tasteless food here. The shrimp in the shrimp fried rice probably took off, because there were basically 2 or 3 small pieces in all. This was not even worth arguing because once again, this was also going to be blamed on the French. Just that, we don't look like French, and we were certainly not treated like the French couples who sat on 4 and 6 conjoined tables, while we were made to sit "bhandara" style.
Last, the rose Lassi was bad too, with as little Lassi as possible in a glass of water.
Bottom line, this is a bad restaurant. Do not go. read more
