Food, services was good and very clean and calm atmosphere.

Ordered chicken korma w vegetable samosas w the cilantro sauce and paratha bread ... so good

They charge $1.15 for non cash transaction which is ridiculous but not as ridiculous as their food. Its neither Indian nor

$20…. Next time it’ll be spent at MARKET32 to feed 4 people. Glad it’s just myself but damn

Prefacing this with I love Indian food and have eaten it for years in NYC, India, London and DC. Ordered on a delivery app and spent $64 for daal and chicken with spinach, nan and some condiments. The rice is flavorless, wet, lacking everything that makes one excited about basmati rice. With the rice being so disappointing it’s no surprise the rest was as well. The yellow daal is undercooked. The chicken and spinach are just ok because the spices are not nuanced. Thankfully I paid extra for the condiments because they actually enhance the flavor and make it edible. Doubtful the nan was light and crisp before being wrapped in aluminium…it’s too dense. Not sure why this place is so highly rated unless I just caught them on an off night.
