We have a newly over-rated restaurant to talk about; and it is named Kabab Palace (obviously).
Okay, so we were expecting this pleasantly surprising Middle Eastern cuisine (especially for the asking price). We went for the lunch buffet: the Afghani bread was as dry as a Saltine; and the curry chicken was also as arid as the climate originating from. All-in-all, everything we ate most definitely lacked the wow-factor that everyone seems to be raving about. Including drinks (but lacking tips), the lunch buffet totaled to $30. We will not be returning.
If one would like to experience a tasty buffet at a reasonable price, check out the Taj Mahal (Indian, Pakistani cuisine) in Tempe, off N. Scottsdale Rd (really close to ASU). Only $7.99 with a good spread; the garlic naan bread must be sampled. Oh, and the Indian equivalent of MTV playing in the background is not as loud as some are whinnying about; they are quite ridiculously funny (definitely enjoyable to watch while you eat your enjoyable food).
