| - Ok, ok.... maybe my experience was not as good as it could have been as I went with the International Supper Club and our group was quite large. Everything on the menu looked good, and maybe I should have read more reviews, because I ordered way too much. The husband and I shared the chicken tikka masala (spicy), a beef samosa, the beef dumplings, and a side of rice with carrots and raisins. If you have been here you know this is an obscene amount of food... I did not know that and was shocked when the plates came out. Let's start with the good:
The samosa was delicious and the cilantro sauce that came with it was amazing... delicious with a touch of spiciness.
The service was fabulous... attentive and timely for such a large group.
The dumplings were really yummy and different than anything I have ever tasted. Plus there were like 10 of them on the plate.... they were tasty. I would get them again for sure.
The bread was fresh, warm, and delicious.... oh, and plentiful.
The prices- this place was inexpensive... I could have fed 6 people for 30$
Ok, now for the bad:
The chicken tikka masala came out completely not spicy.... maybe they didn't hear me, or something got lost in the large order, but it was not at all spicy and just tasted kind of boring.... The portion was large, but if the flavor is there, it really doesn't matter.
The side of rice was maybe the worst thing I got. It was huge and tasted.... off. It's hard to describe, but it tasted like oil that has been used one too many times.... just kind of weird. I'm not sure if that's how it's supposed to taste, but if it is... yikes.... not awesome.
Anyway, I would like to come back here without the large group to taste this food as it's meant to be.
