| - I've been coming here for the last 10 years and I have yet to have disappointing food or service. I agree the service can border on being overly attentive at times. Everybody is warm and friendly and eager to have you as a guest. I can heartily recommend India Palace to both vegetarians and carnivores alike. I've visited with a large group of vegetarians and there were nothing but compliments. So now the food:
The thing to start with, especially with a group is the assorted naan breads. My favorites include Keema which is naan with minced lamb, Garlic and Poori which is fried whole wheat bread. The naan rounds out what seem to some as small portions. When you have naan, your entree of choice with the aromatic Basmati rice you have a very generous serving of food.
No matter what you order, I recommend getting rice as a nice complement to the sauces and curries. I'm not a vegetarian, but enjoy the spices of the Channa (chickpeas) Masala. The goat Saag in spinach and herb is delicious. The meat is so tender and juicy it can best most steaks. I can say that about the chicken and lamb as well.
To top it off, India Palace serves a great selection of beers from India including Hayward 5000, Taj Mahal and King Fisher. I find Taj Mahal the most refreshing almost sweet tasting, and it goes well if you like your food spicy.
Bottom line: very attentive service, delicious variety, very tender, very juicy meats and Indian beer. You can tell the ingredients are high quality and worth the upscale price.
