| - A-OK is accurate. It was my first time there, after living in Kensington for 3 years. Had always wanted to give it a try since the Indo-Pak place on Augusta had closed. I went in around 9pm on a Thursday night late September, and got the curry beef and rice.
The pricing is valuable. You get a fair portion for $6.50, tax included, and they take Credit and Debit.
The food was really nice and hot, temperature-wise. The beef seemed of fair quality, with no gristle. As mentioned in another review, the spices are not the best quality, but they're not bad. The food is decently spicy without being overbearing, but isn't exceptionally flavourful in terms of Indian food. Another thing I very much appreciated was the sauce-to-rice ratio, with enough sauce to coat all the rice. Seems like a small thing, but to me, it makes a huge difference.
If you're looking for a fair place to eat for a low price, and you don't want pad thai, Chinese, or Burger King, here is a good variance.
In terms of bugs, there were a few of those little flies with the feather antennae around the lights at the front service area, but even I had a swarm of those close to our basement apartment door with the florescent lights going last night, it's just that time of year/the area. If nature is the kind of thing that bugs you, you probably shouldn't leave the house, anyway.
