| - I'm a huge fan of Indian cuisine and I've been wanting to check out Copper for some time now. Indian was on our radar this past weekend and Copper was the ticket. Boy, oh boy, am I glad we checked it out.
High notes:
Naan. Easily some of the best naan I've had in town. Served piping hot, holds a great chew, serves at the unparalleled vehicle for all things Indian. It was awesome.
Saffron Almond Paneer. This is a great passed plate and has tons of different flavors to choose from -- sweet, mild spice, herby. The paneer inside the naan was wonderful.
The whole traditional side of the menu is great. Plenty to choose from and definitely doesn't disappoint with the portions served. We were all thrilled with our entrees and shared plenty with one another. Which goes to show, the pricepoint with the given portion, in my opinion, is rather fair. They brought us so much extra naan, rice, and there was plenty for all of us to enjoy individually as well as share amongst the table.
Three of us made it out under $70 (no alcohol) and we were stuffed. The menu is definitely a bit pricier than other places in town -- Avg around $18/person. However, I wouldn't let the prices deter coming back at all. The amount of food, ambiance (the patio is gorgeous on a temperate evening), stellar/professional service, and location with ample parking makes the price per dish a non-issue. Or.....naan issue.
Looking forward to checking out their sister restaurant in Ballantyne -- The Blue Taj.
Cheers.
