| - I'm going to start this review by saying my wife and I were very hungry and had been eating at home more often for health and budget reasons so perhaps we were overly "aware" of our feelings and expectations. We don't typically complain in person or pen.
We arrived and walked past a solemn looking women who was selling traditional garb and jewelry just inside the restaurant near the hostess area. A little awkward. The young woman who sat us and served us said she couldn't seat us in a booth which we preferred because "we might get a larger group of 6." The restaurant was about 50 to 60% full. About 5 minutes later, one of the other servers sat a couple with an infant in a stroller in the very booth we were eyeing.
Things went downhill from there. We ordered some Naan, which is listed as an appetizer, along with our entrees. About 45 minutes later, all of our order arrived, which was about 5 minutes after the booth couples' food arrived. Our Naan came with no sauces for dipping. Our server checked on us about 5 to 10 minutes later and we requested the sauces. She came back to say we're "out of the chutneys, but I have some 'to go' portions." Ughhh!
A few more thoughts . . . The food was pretty good. This may have been an aberrant, young, inexperienced, novice server. The restaurant was cold. There were about two or three screaming kids. The Indian wares saleswomen uncomfortably asked us to take a look on the way out.
We could not see ourselves returning, but I could not, in good conscience, say stay away.
