I have chased good Indian food in Champaign-Urbana since my undergrad years (10 years ago) and this place does not disappoint. As soon as I walked in, I saw a lot of Indian customers so I knew it had to be good. \n\nFOOD\nIt's fast Indian food with quality flavors and ingredients. The portions are huge for an awesome price. I got the tacos because of the hooked deal, but it seemed like most people ordered the rice bowl (I want to try when I go back). You choose a protein, sauce (creamy tomato/korma), toppings, and more sauce to go on top. It's a mound of yummy goodness. \n\nATMOSPHERE\nHonestly, there is nothing fancy about the interior. Very casual, but clean! I was confused by the logo at first. If not for the hooked deal, I would have never known it to be an Indian place. If you are looking for a date spot or a nice sit-down Indian restaurant, I would recommend Kohinoor or Himalayan Chimney in downtown Champaign. However, on a casual night or for lunch, this would be my go to spot."^^ . . "5"^^ .
