Went for their lunch buffet this afternoon. The floor of the restaurant had stuff strewn all over- a turn off when you're there to eat, and fail to see how they couldn't have the waitstaff sweep the place in less than 10 mins. There was only 1 other family dining, so clearly they weren't swamped.
There were many dishes which included South Indian and North India. The paneer was just not right, too much tomato sauce and store bought paneer doesn't amount to great tasting butter paneer. The chicken dishes were average to below average. The dessert was horrible - runny mango custard, tasteless fried sweet bread.
There was zero ambience. It was very 'store like'. I wish all the restaurants around could take a cue or two from 'Chutneys' in Tempe. They have excellent tasting food, great ambience (because they actually employed an interior designer to do up their restaurant) and great prices. Their flavors are unmatched.
A $12.99 buffet needs to be worth that much, and I'm sorry, but Matka isn't worth it, but Chutneys totally is.
