Because my friends and I want to eat something that we have not eaten for a long time, we decided to book this restaurant.To my surprise, the prices listed on the menu are relatively cheap comparing to the usual prices in the Soho area. Also, the restaurant has good decor and is very cozy. However, things turn bad quickly after ordering.First of all, the service is not so up to standard (maybe one should have noticed with the signs from the prices on the menu). The waiters/waitresses are just no
To my surprise, the prices listed on the menu are relatively cheap comparing to the usual prices in the Soho area. Also, the restaurant has good decor and is very cozy. However, things turn bad quickly after ordering.
First of all, the service is not so up to standard (maybe one should have noticed with the signs from the prices on the menu). The waiters/waitresses are just not into us. Not happy to answer questions and not so much to really serve us. If it is not because of the 10% service charge, I will definitely consider to not giving any tips at all.
Maybe we ordered the wrong food or maybe the food is not exactly what my friends and I are used to have, the food we ordered seemed odd. My friends and I ate Indian food frequently when we were studying abroad. One of my friends even lived in India for a while, but the things we ordered were truly weird.
A plate of overcooked Seabass that has a taste and texture of chicken. A plate of grilled lamb that turned out to be a pâté like lamb meat patty (I actually respect this dish a lot. After eating a few pieces of them, I have wondered how lamb meat can be cooked in such a way that the texture and the taste of lamb changed so dramatically? At one point, I thought I was eating pan seared foie gras.)
Luckily, the Butter Chicken that we ordered was flavourful and wholesome, and the freshly made to order Garlic Naan was very crispy on one side and perfectly scented. So our dinner was not as bad as it could have been.
To be honest, I think if we ordered the right food the whole experience should have been great. It is probably a great place for couples or small group of friends to just chill and have a great time. The seats are cozy and spacious. Moreover, there were a lot of Indians waiting to be seated when we left, so this place should not be that bad.
I probably will go try once again in the future, but in the short term I will need some time to digest this experience before I have the courage to try it out again.
