Reviews
I also got the chicken tikka masala, which was rich and comforting. I usually prefer spicier foods, and this one leaned mild and more on the tomato-forward side, but it was still very good. I especially enjoyed dipping my garlic naan into the sauce.
I’ve also tried the samosa chaat, which I recommend pairing with the darker tamarind chutney.
1/5 Mutter Paneer as i was expecting curry style with salt/spicy , but you may like it if you like sweet and butter chicken style
I had a incredibly frustrating experience at this place a few days ago, and I won’t be probably coming back. The level of service here is non-existent. The employees young guys and girls—clearly have zero training in customer service.
I went in to pick up an order and stood there for quite a while before anyone even acknowledged my existence. Eventually, a girl asked for my name in order and told me it would be “6 to 7 minutes.” I waited patiently in the corner, but 15 minutes passed without a word. Meanwhile, the staff was just standing around, laughing loudly and joking with each other, completely ignoring the customers.
When I finally went back up to the counter to check, I found my food had been sitting there for a while. No one bothered to call my name or let me know it was ready. It was an incredibly unwelcoming and “too cool to care” attitude.
On a serious note: Please maintain professionalism. Making customers feel welcome and valued is the bare minimum for a restaurant. This was a total waste of time.
On my last visit, they had introduced a wild boar sekuwa and some water buffalo dishes. I tried the wild boar BBQ, which was recommended by a staff member named Arju, and it was delicious. I highly recommend it.
It’s always nice to try new things, so, l did. Everything was fresh and quality, but l just didn’t like the seasonings used. I appreciate them letting my daughter pick up food prepared right at closing. And she brought it down here to South Virginia to share with me for mother’s day. The customer service was friendly and accommodating. Kind of expensive, but that’s what quality is yall!
