Read moreI visited here having read some positive reviews and 4.7 Star. Please do not trust these reviews and Star ratings anymore.
The Food is okay but not at all authentic Indian Food which is supposed to be yummy.
I ordered Paneer Makhani but the taste was so mediocre. I'm not sure if they really have a North Indian Chef here.
Paneer items are usually a traditional food from the Northern states of India. Even in India, if you are in South India, you rarely find a good and tasty North Indian restaurant there. Likewise, if you are in North India, you would rarely find a restaurant serving tasty South Indian items like Dosa, Idly or Vada.
The Paneer Makhani which I ordered was very very mediocre. Also, the Tandoori Roti ordered by me seemed to be a Frozen Tandoori Roti heated in their kitchen. You may find these Tandoori Roti Naan, Garlic Naan in any Indian Grocery frozen food section. Please do not get misled by these Restaurants selling frozen foods that too at exorbitant prices.
If someone could taste the frozen Naans or Garlic Naans available in Patel Foods grocery store, they would believe my words and never would order any menus which are typically frozen food.
It's high time, we get aware of what an authentic Indian food is and how it's prepared and how it tastes.
Last but not the least, when I asked the Server about the difference between the Paneer Butter Masala and Paneer Makhani, she was not aware of these things, probably because she was not an Indian. She was in such a hurry to cover up her shortcomings that she started to note down Paneer Masala. Ultimately, I had to request the intervention of another Server who was well aware of the difference and he informed me that they don't serve Paneer Butter Masala but only Paneer Masala and Paneer Makhani.
My dear readers and Google users, please make yourselves aware of the different Indian foods and the traditional way of preparing those. Never visit a Restaurant run by a South Indian to taste the Punjabi Food and likewise be careful when you want to taste a South Indian Food please make sure you don't visit a Restaurant run by a North Indian. But there could always be some rare exceptions....
