 | 	- First impressions aren't everything, but ours was certainly not positive when entering this completely empty restaurant around 6:30 on a Friday night. The host station was abandoned, and the lights weren't even turned on in the foyer.
When we entered the restaurant, we were greeted by a very shy teenage boy in baggy jeans and tennis shoes who seated us, gave us water... and then proceeded to stand in the kitchen door and look at us while we sat. Very, very loud dubstep music was blaring from a boom box hidden under a pink plastic tablecloth at the buffet.
Speaking of the buffet, we opted for the that, as it looked serviceable, but also because we wanted our time in the place to be as brief as possible. The mood was definitely not positive for us.
As for the food... some was not bad, and some was, shall we say, edible. The non-meat options fared the best. Chicken tended to be tough in each of the buffet entrees we sampled, and the naan was very dense and doughy with no discernible flavor at all -- nothing like the puffy, crispy naan we've had at most Indian restaurants.
Two other parties came in, but the place was still dead for a Friday night. Throughout it all, the dubstep music kept blaring away, and the young waiter stood in the kitchen door and stared. It almost felt like an SNL skit at times.
Bonus points for refusal of our restaurant.com gift certificate. I was told that, even though it didn't have an expiration date, I couldn't use it because it was purchased in 2014. Okay.
