Delicious!. I had come here for lunch on a Friday afternoon at around 1:30 pm. It was quite difficult to find as the sign was not too visible from the street however, I was able to find it eventually. When I walked-in, I was surprised to see that there were only three other diners there (two at one table, and one at another). I suppose that due to the time, many individuals had already eaten their lunch.
I was approached by a kind, younger gentleman at the front of the restaurant. He asked me how many would be dining; I told him it would just be myself. He then told me that I could choose to sit anywhere that I desired. Although the restaurant was on the small side, it felt quite quaint, I felt comfortable as there were many booths available, along with a few tables. I chose a booth near the window, then waited for the younger gentleman to approach me.
Once the younger gentleman approached me, he asked if I would prefer the lunch buffet or the a la carte menu. I asked him how much the lunch buffet was, and he told me that it would be $10.99 plus tax. I then opted for the lunch buffet as I found the price to be reasonable. He then asked me what I wanted to drink (I ordered water), then told me that I could begin on the buffet whenever I was ready. He then also let me know that he would be bringing over an order of Naan Bread shortly.
I then walked over to the buffet, which I noticed was a bit on the small side. There was one side which contained all of the hot items, and the other side which contained all of the cold items. Then, there was a small ice cream freezer near the kitchen, and a table with plates, napkins, and cutlery. Although the buffet was small, there were many items available, which satisfied my palate immensely.
Upon first walking to the buffet, I grabbed a plate, then proceeded to fill it with Butter Chicken, Rice, Channa Masala, and a Vegetable Pakora. I found that the Rice was clumpy, and it looked as though it had been sitting there for quite a while. I only grabbed the Rice that looked edible as I wanted to have Rice that looked fresh. I then asked the young gentleman if I could have Rice, at which he proceeded with a ‘yes’, then went to the kitchen.
The Butter Chicken was absolutely AMAZING, such a delicious sauce, filled with moist chicken, which kept my palate satisfied. The only thing was that I found the food to be a bit cold, not as hot (temperature-wise) as I would have liked however, it definitely tasted more delicious then I had expected. As I was finishing my first helping, the younger gentleman came to my table with an order of Naan Bread, which came out piping hot from the oven. When the Naan Bread was dipped in the Butter Chicken sauce, I was in HEAVEN, it was absolutely divine!
I was also surprised that the helping of Rice came so quickly after I had ordered it however, I didn’t expect it to come directly to my table, I thought it would go into the buffet station; I thought it was very kind of them to bring it directly to my table. I had about three helpings of the main dish items, which were all cooked to perfection, and tasting delicious. I then proceeded to try the dessert, which was the Gulab-Jamun, which was hot (temperature-wise) and overly delicious in the Rose Water Syrup.
I was pleasantly surprised at how well the food tasted, and how great the service was, with the younger gentleman asking me how I was enjoying my meal a few times throughout my time there. When I was ready to leave, I asked the younger gentleman for the bill. He then brought it over to my table, with the total being $12.42, which I thought was VERY reasonable for such a large amount of food. I then went to the front to pay, admiring the beautiful décor on the walls and shelves.
I left this restaurant with a smile on my face as I knew that this restaurant satisfied my taste buds immensely. I had read the reviews on here before going therefore, I had faith that I wouldn’t be disappointed, and disappointed I was not! I look forward to returning again to this restaurant as I found my experience to be much better than I had experienced at other establishments of this nature. Thank you for such a wonderful lunch!
