"Indian or Thai? Which is it? The service was awkward and left a lot to be desired which can also be true of the food"
So I had to come here from the aid kids hospital across the street. I thought having a closer to home cooked meal would make staying at sick kids a little easier. It was and it wasn't. It was in the sense that there was good, it wasn't in the sense that everything else was odd and not great.
The atmosphere isn't bad. It's actually nice and cozy and quaint in a basement style entrance.
Service
This is whee my big gripe comes from in that the waitress had no idea what she was doing. It's like she was high. Didn't know the menu or the specials couldn't articulate anything or take an order properly. It was awkward. She misquoted the specials several times and had to keep coming back to our table to confirm things. She then did that with another couple who came in for a meal. The couple even said to her "let's start again, pretend we just got here, how does the special and menu work?" very awkward and kind of ruins the experience.
Food
Not bad. Not amazing, but not bad. It kinda tasted like it came out of a jar, but it was presented okay. They have a $25 special with small portions of 4 mains plus rice and a few Appetizers. The fried stuff was over fried and oily, but the subji or main courses were okay. Nothing to write home about and definitely something I'd ever crave or want again.
Summary. It's not a bad ethnic option close to the hospital, but the best on centre and young street is just minutes away and is worth the extra walk.
