I dined at Dhaba last night with a group of 8 coworkers at around 7pm. Located in the Middleton shopping/eating area, parking was very convenient.
I had the Goat Madras (a South Indian style dish) and was very happy with it. So happy that they served the goat dishes with bone. The goat meat was so tender and falling off the bone with the creamy marrow and perfectly gooey tendon. The combination of spices, tamarind and coconut milk was very flavorful. I had spicy level 3 (on a scale of 1-6) but it was very mild- could have gone up to a 4 or 5 to feel some heat. I also ordered the Mango Lassi but was not too impressed. It was very bright yellow and a bit too sweet.
My Indian colleague had the Butter Chicken (which was halal) and said it was really good. My other colleagues had the Lamb Masala and Lamb Madras and they were happy with it too. The Lamb Masala had more of a spicy kick to it compared to the Madras.
All entrees came with either soup or salad. The lentil soup was delicious. I think it was lentils blended until it was very smooth.
I also appreciated how they asked if we wanted separate checks from the very beginning, making payment seamless.
Great place, even for a large group!
