The atmosphere is pleasant and charming! The owner and waiter are very friendly and knowledgeable about the dishes. If you have any questions about the dishes, they are there to help. Having been to India, I felt as tho the food was not as authentic as it could be. The tikka had a nice smoky and spicy flavor. The butter chicken-which is my fav-was a bit lackluster. Nice amount of spice, and one of our friends thought it was spicy (she doesn’t like spice at all, so if you can handle a little, then the butter chicken is a great option). Veg and non veg options! Portion size was just right, each person got their own rice and the entrees are easily splittable between 2 people. Great way to order different things and share! Along with the rice, each person got a piece of naan bread. The drink menu was basic, but covered all the needs for everyone. Wine (by glass or bottle), beer, vodka, tequila, etc, and non alcoholic options. You are able to split checks-up to 3 ways and you can pay by cash or credit card. All around, it was a great evening spent with friends and I am glad I finally checked...
Read moreThis left a bad enough taste in our mouths, figuratively and literally, that we were up late at night talking about it (while drinking from water bottles due to grossly excessive salt intake).
We have traveled quite a bit, and eaten at countless Indian restaurants. This one falls squarely in the bottom 20%. The fact that it can score so highly here speaks to some combination of rock bottom Indian standards in PV, cluelessness, and paid reviews.
The "curries", if I can call them that, were flavorless, totally inauthentic, and oversalted. The "naan" was an insipid white bread, almost a cracker. Everything is overpriced, I can get vastly better curry for less back home in Seattle. And to top it off I realized they overcharged me by $100.
If you are looking to take a break from Mexican food and enjoy the peak food experience only good Indian can provide, don't. You won't find that here, I promise you that. Just eat more Mexican. Eat at a tourist trap on the Malecon, you will be much better off.
Proceed at your own risk, and don't say I...
Read moreThis place has one good thing going for them.
They have Indian food made by Indians which is hard to find in PV.
But man, they have no idea how to operate a business, let alone a restaurant. This is a review based on two visits. First one was to support their opening, and the second was months later in hopes they improved. They didn’t.
Their wait times are LONG. Plan for an entire evening.
The Indian owner is very rude.
The food tastes good, but portions are small, meat portions are sample size, and prices are high in comparison to the experience.
Ambiance is… cats.
I am never going back again. And I will save my friends from having the same experiences I’ve had at this restaurant.
What a shame. If only the owners took a hospitable, organised, and kind approach to service they would have success.
People want Indian food but they have a long way to go before calling this a restaurant.
No split bills, rude arrogant owners, LONG wait times, no attention, high prices, no ambience.
I don’t think they’ll...
