| - We ate here on a Saturday night and when we walked in it wasn't too busy. We were seated right away and initially given attention. We were given plenty of time to peruse the menu and ordered the paneer pakora for starters. The pakora was good, appeared to be freshly prepared as opposed to freshly taken out of a box from the freezer.
My wife ordered the Indo Chinese fusion fried rice with chicken chili. The portion is huge! Take a dinner plate, make it a bowl and fill it with rice, chicken, and other vegetables and that's what you have. Expect to use a take away box because you won't finish it in one go.
I had the Curry chicken vindaloo, ordered spicy. It was fresh and spicy and I liked it a lot. You receive a bowl of the chicken vindaloo and a smaller bowl of rice. It doesn't sound like much but it was a lot and I left there feeling very full. The spiciness was exactly where I wanted it to be. If you sweat when eating spicy food, expect to sweat.
The one thing we didn't see on the menu and didn't think of ordering was the service. We had little to no service. Aside from the gentleman who initially sat us down, gave us our water, and took our order, that was essentially the service we got. The food was brought out by the food runner from the kitchen. When he dropped off the pakora, I asked him about our drinks we ordered, since my water has was empty. He went to someone else and they brought us our drinks. When we finished the pakora, the gentleman came around and took our dirty plates and replaced them with dinner platers and that was the last time we saw him until the end of the meal.
When our dinner arrived, it was hot and fresh. A couple of times I saw a woman walk around with a water pitcher after she filled newly sat people's water, though my glass remained dry as a well in summer. Just as we were finishing up, the gentleman offered some water. When it was filled, it was with water from the tap. I have nothing against tap water but in Arizona in the summer, tap water is warm to hot. It was warm with small bits of ice melting away. A small thumbs up for effort there but it wasn't enough.
The lady who filled our water dropped off the check. It always has been my understanding when the server drops off the check in a booklet or on a plate, the server will process the payment. That booklet sat at the end of the table ready to be picked up for the better part of five minutes. Rather than wait any longer, I opted to pay at the take away register. The gentleman, while busy on the phone, quietly mumbled an apology and processed my check.
I liked the food, the service not so much. I would give this place another go. My wife however is less forgiving and I will have to do some convincing of her before she will come back.
