Was really shocked at how poor this restaurant was after reading the other yelp reviews. I'll break it down the best I can, but the overwhelming feeling is that I wished I'd never eaten there.
Service - 1 out of 5
After we waited to be seated, the server did not come back to take a drink order for 15 minutes. We were ready to order food as well by that time so we placed our entire order. 15 minutes later we still didn't have our drinks (2 glasses of wine) and we only received them when I reminded the server. They forgot to bring water even though my wife asked for it with her wine. At one point they brought out the wrong dish and were snotty when we asked them to take it back.

I'm trying hard to describe what was wrong with it but it honestly tasted like it was cooked by someone who didn't have any training. The IDEA of the food is great and the menu describes all these amazing combinations but the execution on those ideas was terrible. The Samosa sampler is great in theory but in practice, the dough was flavourless, the proportion of filling was way off. There was a lot of spice which i like but very little flavour. The lentil salad was ok but had terrible presentation and was all spice and little flavour. The crab cakes were deep fried and incredibly garlicy. To top it all off my wife ordered white wine and it was warm when it (finally) arrived.

Was only ok, nothing special. It's 3 levels i think and makes the room feel very small. Also makes it impossible for servers to be able to see if you need anything.

What's your worst nightmare when eating at a restaurant? How about using the washroom before you leave only to find that it's completely disgusting and dirty. filthy. And you know if the washroom is dirty, something that the patrons will see, what do you think that means for the kitchen.
I love indian food. It's supposed to be flavourful, it's supposed to be lovingly prepared. Such a disappointment.
