We dined here again with friends on Saturday 7/29/2012. Our small group has dined here many, many times in the past years. My wife and I have also dined here many times by ourselves. This time we noticed a big, BAD change. :(
It appears that India Gate was sold and the new owners are ruining it. Yes, there were stains on our table cloth. My wife and I arrived first, then our friends arrived. Our group + my wife & I never partake in the Buffet--it's kept warm and very mild to appeal to newcomers, We ordered and about 20 or so minutes latter our food arrived. All of the ordered food was served BUT we couldn't eat it. Why? NO plates!
Our items were ordered with a medium level of spice. But the items were BLAND and not very tasty! A very bad sign! Our friends both ordered the same item but there were big differences between the two items. One was greasy and the other was dry. One had a breast of chicken, while the other didn't.
I ordered #17 chicken ginger kabah with medium spice level. It was bland, no real ginger taste. The Pulao Rice, #93 was just so-so-meaning not like before. I think that this was our last visit here as it changed in a bad way. Service at the table also has taken a dive---no plates and took a while to get them! Sad to say, it's time to say goodbye!
