      I've eaten there twice, lunch buffet both times. In general, I like the buffet because you get to a variety of choices. The curry and chicken is really good. But the salad dressings tasted weird, so be careful of that!

      Just ordered from them, haven't even gotten the food yet and there's a bad taste in my mouth from how horrible the man was on the phone. Bad service. Baaaaaad.

      The dishes are much too Americanized for my Indian taste buds. If you don't have time to get to Devon or the stomach for real spiciness, this place isn't a bad choice. The portions are too small for the price they're asking. However, the service is really great.

      I don't know what real Indian food is supposed to be, but I really liked this place. Regardless of the previous comments, the service was great. They were all very nice and efficient. My only complaint is that the food is a bit pricey for their small servings.

      Pretty bad food. Chicken tikka is a joke. The service is *very* slow. Some of the waiters are very rude. I wouldnt recommend this place. For better indian food, go to W. Devon Ave.
