Was invited here for a double date as it is a well known fact I like/know Indian food. I really liked the atmosphere and the upscale casual feel for the place. The music was very nice too and at the right volume. Ordered cocktails and was immediately drawn to Hot Lips for its spicy ingredients. But alas, it fell short on both punch and bite. Ordered 4-5 bunch of typical indian appetizers and they were all pretty good. Followed up with typical indian main courses. Overall the food is best described as 'indian food for beginners' Flavors were muted and kept very conservative. Not very spicy nor very imaginative, but good healthy sized portions and we left satisfied. Finished off with the Gulab Jaman. No, not the best indian food you will have, but a good place to take the unitiated for a nice evening out. You want the real deal and authentic flavors go elsewhere. But this was a decent spot for a casual meal. Not cheap, but a pleasant dinner spot with introductory Indian cuisine.
