My gf and I happened to visit this place last week since we had read some rave reviews on this site, and my gf wanted to taste Indian food. We entered around 7pm, and the place was literally empty. There was no one to welcome us or seat us down. The woman at the cash register (who I later realized was the owner's wife) didn't even acknowledge us. After having sat down, not having been attended to for 5 min, I went to the woman to ask her if they were open as yet. She looks up, gives me a disgusted look and asks me ""What do you want?"". I draw her attention to my gf and I, and ask her if we could be offered a menu. She hands me a menu and disappears into the back room. A waiter shows up at our table a good 5 minutes later, and places two glasses with water. No, he didn't ask us what we would prefer to drink. The glasses were greasy and the entire affair so far had been pretty non-appetizing. We ordered the a chicken dish, a lentil soup kinda dish, and some Indian bread. It took a good half an hour to see them at our table. Meanwhile, a couple and a group of 5 entered. They were met with a similar kinda service, and the couple left 10 min after they entered without ordering anything. Our food was cold, tasteless and I suspected the soup to be stale. I told the owner's wife about it being stale, and she goes ""Oh, you people never understand Indian cooking"" instead of apologizing. She refused to serve us better food all the while insisting there was nothing wrong with it. I lost it at that point. We asked her for our receipt and immediately left, and paid no tips for their horrible service. We were once again met with some disgusting looks from that woman for not having tipped them. We have conveyed our bad experience to all our friends, and I am considering reporting this to the Beter Busines Bureau. Guys, please don't waste your money and time here. There are a million other excellent Indian restaurants in LA. This one is a joke!
