I rarely, if ever post negative reviews but I feel obliged to share tonight’s experience. I ordered from this restaurant for the first time through door-dash. My order consisted of (2) Butter Chicken priced at $9.99 per serving, which arrived a very pale pink color. The color is not in itself off-putting, but the taste was horrifically sweet. It is as though someone has poured straight sugar over the batch. I could not get more than 3 bites into it and I am not a picky individual. This dish is simply inedible, and a nauseating combination with the chicken pieces it envelops.
Additionally, I ordered the garlic naan to accompany this dish. At $1.99 per PIECE I expected fresh naan. What arrived was a soggy mess that was pre-packaged and frozen. You may be wondering how I know that it was packaged frozen. That would be because I have purchased the identical brand from Trader Joe’s at $1.99 for 4 pieces and have the frozen bag still in my freezer.
At this point I feel I have wasted over $50 on a meal that was inedible, an absolute shame as I was thrilled to have a highly rated space near my home to order my...
Read moreWent in for my first time today. There were about 3 other customers inside when I entered.
The decor is lacking, but that typically doesn't bother me TOO much for this style of restaurant.
Who I believe was the owner had let me know they were super short staffed and he was the only one on. Having 10 years in the restaurant industry, I did not mind the wait and didn't want him to feel rushed.
He kept coming back to let us know the time range.
It did take about 35 minutes from order to get food.
I ordered medium chicken curry with Nan and it was great! I'd definitely come here again. The flavors were excellent in the chicken curry. Just enough to make my nose run! A few bites of rice had a "tinny" flavor to it. I used my own silverare from home so it could just be me.
The Nan was just ok, but I'd give it another shot. I know he was rushing to cook it.
I live about 12-14 minutes away, and by the time I got home, the food was still VERY HOT. Which is always pleasing!
Certainly a 3.8-4 in my book. Will try again! Thanks for a wonderfully...
Read moreGreen curry leaf is a restaurant that reopened in Libertyville under new management. Ali the manager has previous experience managing a restaurant in Palatine. Being a tremendous fan of the previous curry leaf I had to compare the old vs new one. I'm glad I stopped by.
I ordered the butter chicken spicy, with white rice and garlic naan. It literally set my taste buds ablaze. It was spicy and contained a tremendous amount of flavor. It was really saucy as well, I expected there to be some oil pooled on top, but it was completely absent, which I'm grateful for. The order of butter chicken came with rice, which I found unusual, but I won't complain.
The garlic naan was good, much better than the previous ownership of curry leaf, which was actually served a little cold. But in all honesty the garlic naan is a little better at Biryani Pointe.
My experience here with the quality of food, quantity, and customer experience has been phenomenal. I look forward to returning, because I have a feeling I'll be hooked on the...
