I should have written this review earlier but somehow forgot to do it. I went to Sitara for my last birthday. Considering the kind of Indian restaurants available in Champaign and me wanting to eat Indian food on my birthday, we did not have much choice. So we made a reservation at Sitara. We played safe and ordered veg assorted appetizer, Sitara mixed grill, lamb vindaloo and garlic naan. Appetizers were ok. Mixed grill was just bland, usually In India chicken or any other meat is well marinated before putting in tandoor or grill and the marinade usually has lots of herbs, yogurt, ginger, garlic and spices. I could not taste anything. Lamb in vindaloo was chewy and tough, the flavor of curry was not balanced as well. Garlic naan tasted good but complimentary daal was again bland, it did not have smoky tempering which you get in Indian daal. Another Indian restaurant which doesn't serve authentic Indian food.
I really wish they serve the kind of food which you get in India.
