Food: Tandoori chicken steals the show

The Tandoori Chicken at this place is a juicy explosion of flavor, while the Eggplant Curry and Lamb Vindaloo offer a creamy, hot ride. However, don’t expect to leave satisfied if portion sizes matter, and the value can feel like a joke.

Vibe: Seductive darkness with intimacy issues

Sure, the ambiance is maybe too cozy, but let's be real—the lighting could double as an interrogation tactic. It's perfect for small talk among strangers, but a date? Not so much, unless one enjoys a side of awkward silence.

  • Great Drinks

    Nice selection of beer and wine paired well with food.

  • Okay Sound

  • No Buzz

    Interior outdated and tacky, suggesting a lack of trendiness.

Perks: Convenient but lacking group dynamics

Though the parking is free and ample, the vibe fades for larger groups when cozy becomes cramped. On the flip side, the service varies—friendly when it happens, but don’t hold your breath. Still, dietary varieties please those with specific needs.

  • Great Staff

  • Okay for Diets

    Standard menu offerings with some unique dishes, overall reasonable.
