We have visited this restaurant couple of times now. But our latest visit was totally disappointing to say the least. We had made reservations for Xmas day dinner and we had our 5 yr old with us. We needed a earlier time, so we called and they gave us a 7:00 p.m. table. When we arrived at the restaurant, they didn't have any table for us and the staff behaved very rudely with us as if we were walk-ins. They asked us to come back at 9:30 if we need a table, as if there is no other place in NYC !! And then they offered a table in the aisle with a high chair for 5 year old in the aisle where they carry hot plates almost every minute !! I don't need to eat their food that badly, I guess.
But the whole thing was handled very badly and the manager should have diffused the situation, but she ignored us completely and we left the place. We then went to Diwan and the restaurant was almost empty and we enjoyed our Xmas dinner there. Needless to say, we will never return to Amma.
Pros: unique indian food
Cons: poor service, small place and poorly placed tables
