Villa Punjab — Restaurant in Paris

We came to Villa Punjab hoping for a fresh Indian meal during our stay in Paris, and were in turn very dissapointed. If you are Indian, DO NOT come here. The owners clearly give preference to the French locals over us. We ordered pakoras to start, which came out within 2 minutes after we ordered, showing that the food is not fresh at all. All the other food we ordered (chicken tikka masala, palak paneer) tasted like they had been made hours before and had just been reheated to serve.

Overall the restaurant is OK, but...
