For the first time, about 6 years ago, my wife and I went to this location of Banjara and were simply blown away by the quality, affordability and the atmosphere of this place. Last week we decided to stop by for lunch and repeat the experience; this was a big mistake.
My wife ordered a butter chicken+ a plain rice dish and I ordered a sizzling lamb kebab with butter naan, we also ordered one mango lassi and one salty lassi+a simple cucumber salad and one mango chutney. The butter chicken was way below ordinary, how can you make butter chicken taste so bland and monotonous is beyond me, my "sizzling" kebab arrived on a cast iron dish but it wasn't sizzling at all , and it had a weird and unpleasant taste about it. The salty lassi had a very sour tone to it, almost as if they mistakenly added lemon juice to the drink or even worst, as if the yogurt had gone way passed its expiry. The mango chutney tasted like a sweetened cardboard and again had no flavour whatsoever. This experience cost us 55.00 CDN+ tip. There are many many places all around this city that offer the same dish with much higher quality for a similar price if not cheaper...I'm hoping this review will wake up some decision makers at the restaurant to make a better quality food...it's a real shame, I'm never going back.
