Feeling like Indian food the other night and didn't want to make the trek back downtown to Tandoori Hut (my favorite EI restaurant in Calgary) so looked around for somewhere closer to home.
Their menu has a decent number of choices and is priced fairly. However finding the menu was a bit of a pain. They have a website but has been taken offline so I had to go to archive.org to get a copy. Not a big deal restaurants without a website is a HUGE annoyance for me. Anyways....ordering was quick and easy.
Arrived at the planned time and they were just assembling our order. The staff was very friendly and helpful in getting everything well packaged and out to our car.
Now the important part of the review...the food! We started with the "mix & match" appy consisting of 2 samosas (we took beef), 3 kababs and 6 pakoras. The samosas were ok, not the best but still very tasty. The kababs were tasty but very dry. But the pakoras were amazing! Perfectly spiced and very crispy. For entrees we went with butter chicken, chicken korma, dhaal makhani and veg curry and here's where I'm conflicted. While everything tasted good, nothing tasted like what I'm used to. I like my butter chicken to have a noticeable tomatoy taste but theirs was more rogan josh sauce. The korma, again it tasted good, didn't have much of a coconut taste. The dhaal makhana was quite good. The curry veg were well spiced and good selection.
My rating of 3/5 isn't completely fair in that the food & service were both good it just didn't have the tastes I've come to expect with EI food.
