My friends and I ate here at 6:30pm on a Sunday. FOOD: Entrees are not put on your main plate; they come in their own bowls ? which we loved, as it allowed us to more easily sample each other?s dishes. Great for a newcomer to Indian cuisine, like me. Also great for those practicing portion control. Entrees do NOT include side dishes, so for a party of four or more, ordering a bread basket for the table instead of separate sides is a good deal for everyone. The food was outstanding. The spiciness of the dishes was just right. For dessert, I had the Chocolate Dynamite Cake ? which is a misnomer. There was much more mousse than cake. It was excellent, but very dense. It?s almost worth the extra money to order kulfi (Indian ice cream) and eat them together. Specialty cocktails are made strong and were nearly half price when we went (might have been part of a Happy Hour deal). SERVICE: You will get a phone call to confirm your reservations. Our server did NOT give us a hassle when we asked for separate checks. Everyone's orders arrived in a timely manner. One of my friends mentioned to our server that one of her favorite Indian dishes was not on the menu. She eventually decided to get an on-menu dish. When her entree came, the server also brought a small cup of the off-menu dish (and didn?t charge us for it). SCENE: The place was empty when we arrived, but started filling up by the time we left (around 9-10pm). Dress code seemed to be dressy casual. DECOR: Beautiful and comfortable. The table spacing and air conditioning was just right. The music was good and not too loud or intrusive to conversation. Discovering that there are four single-person unisex bathrooms was a pleasant surprise (and they were clean!). LOCATION: Desolate. I am female and would NOT feel comfortable standing on that street for too long by myself after dark. Travel in packs, ladies.
Pros: Service, Food, Decor, Bathroom
Cons: Location, Some menu items are pricey
