  • Awful place. I went here with my two brothers, and like many people, we were armed with the Living Social coupons. Now, I don't like to brag, but my brothers are reasonable experts in the many provincial flavours of Indian cuisine, so I will divide this review into two portions: my brothers' thoughts and my own. First, my own. So, this is a weird little place seeing as how it shares space with a very Mexican themed restaurant, including murals of Tenochitlan, and the Golden Eagle. Does Wicked share a space with this mysterious restaurant? Did I walk into the middle of a hostile take-over? I don't know. It was just so weird. Service is slow, except for the nice bus boy, who brought us menus promptly, poured us water etc... Then it took about 10 minutes for the waiter to come to our table, another 10 minutes to get our order in, and then about 30-40 minutes for our food to arrive. I was hungry, I didn't like this waiting. But the staff was friendly, even the crappy slow waiter. He even smiled when I didn't give him a tip. Can I go back now? Will I go back? No. Next the food, and my brothers' thoughts. Expensive. Indian food is cheap to make, but because of the current yuppie infatuation with Indian, any place in a decent spot, ie. 17th, will have a big mark-up. Back to me: Dishes were around $10, and the portions were so tiny that divying up portions between the three of us became some sort of evolutionary competitive confrontation. We snarled, we bared our teeth to get our scrap of food from the tiny carcasses of food we were served. I don't really remember what we ordered; two veg's and a meat dish, definitely the Chole Palak. I can make Chole Palak, it's easy. Just pureed tomatoes and chickpeas and spinach. And I can make it pretty good with the spices I buy from T&T. This was not good chole palak. It had the consistency of Prego spaghetti sauce steeped in old tea water. It splashed onto my plate with all the delicacy of the Delhi Belly. What was worse, as mentioned above, is this ordeal took over two hours from start to finish. Even the bill took 20 minutes to arrive. The total for 3 people, ordering 3 dishes with two rices was $48. Pricey, as I can go down to Mirchi and get 6 dishes for $40. You suck, Wicked Chili, but I have one more of these goddam Living Social coupons to use, so I'll probably be back, but only as a matter of self-punishing bourgeois principle. Damn my Protestant upbringing.
