Bhatti Indian Grill

Really nice Indian food. the portions are a bit on the small side and they charge for rice, but the food is excellent, and the service is very friendly. Also, the atmosphere is much nicer than most places in it's price range. A true find for Indian in NYC.

place is nice and service is good so overall i like it

Lunched there today with coworkers, group of 6. The decor was great, we all loved it. Their lunch specials looked like a bargain for me ($6.95 vegetarian, and $9.95 w/ meat). Since all of us ordered the lunch special, they have decided to put the food together. So the appetizer was kebab, each of us got 2 pieces of meat. The meat came to us almost broken apart - perhaps overcooked? Then comes Chicken tikka, the main dish. They gave 1 dish for all 6 of us, it was several pieces of chicken swimming in a whole dish of sauce and peas. And it was just the same for other dishes. Too much sauce and peas, and no meat. The meal fills you up with peas and rice and Naan, but just wasn't good value for me, and I felt I paid for the decor instead of the food.

I had the lunch special which is great because they have appetizers, 2 entrees, with rice and bread. The meat is sooo tender and good. I'm not sure what type of kebab came with the non veg special but they were awesome. The veg special came with mixed veg and mushroom with peas. It was nice trying out a few things altogether. I'll definitely be going back.

I have been to this place 3 times now. They are very consistent. Amazing food and good service. Their lunch buffet (with a difference!) is a great idea. Most buffets you lose your appetite after seeing so much food around. Here they personally serve you the buffet food, freshly prepared inside. You can pick Veg or Non Veg and you have a choice of dishes you want to pick. Its unlimited too! All for $7.95. We loved it. We plan to go again. Its a must try! The food is spiced just right, tastes awesome as well. I am an Indian and have eaten in all kinds of restaurants. I rate this one as one of the best!

I eat at Bhatti almost every week, or order take out. The portions are priced just right. This is Manhattan..how much more curry and kababs can you get for $12 at a place that actually looks like a restaurant and not subway? The portions are big enough for 2 people! The kababs are super...well cooked, spiced just right and always tender. The curries never fail to impress me. They have some interesting things on the menu that you can't find anywhere else- the shrimp curry, the lamb chops and the galouti kababs, to name a few. Yumm! The restaurant is adorable- Cozy atmosphere, and the BYOB tops it all off! My friends and I love this place!

Being Indian, I was enthusiastic about a new addition to this neighborhood, but I was beyond disappointed. Halfway through our meal, our group started making a list of all the problems (but I'll limit myself here). For me, the worst offense was that there was too much turmeric in almost everything (we had four appetizers and three entrees). I know it's good for you, but when that's all I can taste, something is very wrong. The curries were all garnished with fresh ginger. While this might be appreciated by some, it's an overly pungent garnish for the unsuspecting. Please warn us or just stick with coriander. The service was unpleasant. The waitress brought us one appetizer at a time (for a group of four) and didn't bring the next dish until we completely finished the prior one. Then, she asked us if we wanted all our entrees at the same time. We said yes, but I was very curious about what she would've done if we'd said no. Our waitress also had the unseemly habit of reaching over all of us, and she repeatedly brushed up against a male guest, which he found more than disconcerting. And, when she wasn't annoying us, she was ignoring us. I don't normally expect much in terms of service in Indian restaurants, but this was exceptionally unpleasant service. Perhaps the problem was exacerbated by the fact that the tables were way too close to each other. We could not get in and out of the far seats without moving the tables. I'm not sure why they needed so many tables, since at 12:30 on a Sunday, we were the only people in there. I suspect that we're the last Indian people to find out that this place is not worth it.
