    Unpleasant experience today

    Firstly, I'm giving it two stars because I've gotten things there which were decent. I haven't been there often, but have never been disappointed like this before. I had a really bad experience there today. I ordered take out on a Thursday night at 9:30. That's not that odd a time, right? I ordered Chicken Tikka Masala (because I was too tired from work to even read the menu), Aloo Parathas, and Mughlai Parathas. I got it home, famished, and opened up the first container. It had rice in it, but not fluffy, juicy, long-grained basmati rice. You know the kind of rice you get when you reheat rice from leftover Chinese food the next day? Dry, crumbly and clumped together unnaturally--that's what it was like. Then I tried the Mughlai Paratha, which sounded like a nice variation on the normal potato (Aloo) ones I'm used to. Same thing--dry and crumbly like it was prepared days before. The Chicken Tikka Masala was acceptable (except for the rice I ate with it), but no more than acceptable. The Aloo Paratha was pretty tasty though, you can't go wrong with ghee. I have to say, I was pretty let down this time. I'll try it again sometime on a Friday or Saturday when the food is fresh, but certainly won't order from there on a weeknight again. It's a shame, too--they're always pretty nice and friendly there.

    Not recommended

    I came here for lunch with mom. The place was empty and nobody was there to seat us. The dishes are about $15 each and the size of appetizers. I asked the waiter how many pieces of chapati do we get. He said "2 pieces". I said, "that's not much but ok, we'll have an order of it." The food came and was burnt to a crisp and tough. When the chapati came, only 1 piece was served to us so I said, "I thought we get two pieces?" He said, "the menu changes all the time." Apparently the menu changed within 15 minutes after I asked how many pieces of chapati we get! The server seemed angry all the time. He was not like that only to us but to the new customers as well. The atmosphere was so uncomfortably quiet in there that I could clearly hear a conversation across the restaurant even when spoken softly. Play some music or something! I am definitely not coming back.

    One of my favorites!

    I love this restaurant. The wait staff is friendly, the food is delicious and it's a nice, quiet atmosphere. I have to go at least once a month because I start to crave their food. Definitely try it!

    Disappointing

    After reading great reviews for this place, I ordered take out. While the food was ready quickly and the staff was friendly, the quality of the food was abysmal. We ordered the chicken tikka masala, mattar paneer and naan bread. None of it looked or tasted as expected (and we've been to a lot of Indian restaurants - we generally know what to expect!). The chicken had a piece of coal that nearly took my tooth out. We ended up throwing half of the food away. All in all, an expensive disappointment. Will not be ordering from here again.

    I LOVE this place

    The food here is really spectacular. I love their lamb tikka masala and chicken tikka. And their appetizers are also especially yummy. Welcoming, pretty atmosphere and extremely accomodating service. I've gone here my whole life and will certainly keep returning!

    Go somewhere else

    The food is very dissappointing.. Chicken Tikka Masala was a suprise, chicken was not overcooked but not sure what the sauce was, definitely not the normal sauce you get when you order this dish.. maybe the waiter misunderstood me and thought i ordered chicken in a bowl of oil. Chana Masala was quiet bland, looked like the salt chef was on strike that day. First time trying it, and not happy.
