good food; bad service
Thursday, February 19, 2004
Haveli was a good neighborhood alternative to the embarrassing Indian restaurants that surround it; if you're looking for quality Indian food, best not to go to those. The food at Haveli, however, was quite good, if a little more expensive than necessary. It was the service, however, that ruined the dining experience: they simply don't have enough servers in the dining room to do anything efficiently. Ordering takes forever; food delivery takes forever; getting the check takes forever, etc. etc. With a few extra waiters and some consideration, it could be a pretty good restaurant.
