Food: Unexciting food with a touch of spice

Manas Indian restaurant serves dishes that can be categorized as a hit and miss. The Manas Special Curry and Chicken/Fish Curry Tikka Masala come highly recommended due to the unique blend of spices and richness. The Vegetable Samosas are worth mentioning due to their freshness and flavor. Yet the lower than average creativity of the dishes, and failure to deliver in terms of freshness seem to weigh them down. While the taste is considered generally satisfactory, the portions seem to disappoint. Despite this, value for the money is deemed positive thanks to an extensive menu with reasonable pricing.

  • Great Value

    Extensive options for a reasonable price, great for students.

  • Okay Variety

    Buffet offers variety, yet menu size and item quality may vary.

  • Quality

    Food described as dry, bad-tasting, and sometimes frozen, not fresh.

Vibe: Drab ambiance, intrusive entertainment

The ambiance at Manas Indian leaves much to be desired, described as drab and cramped, and negatively impacted by constant TV music. Its lack of appeal for date nights also stems from this intrusive music. Expect no soothing background music or a tranquil setting, just unappealing TV noise.

  • Dates

    TV blaring annoying music; bad for intimate date conversations.

Perks: Inflexible service, limited parking

It's not all cheer on the perks end. Parking appears to be a notable concern, with insufficient space and difficulty finding a spot. The restaurant doesn't stack well with group accommodations, considering its relatively small size. Service is described as slow and rude, further impacting the overall diner's experience. However, the menu shines in dietary accommodations, with a good range of vegan and vegetarian options.

  • Great for Diets

    Highly accommodating, with plenty of delicious vegetarian and vegan options.

  • Parking

    Parking lot too small, difficult to find space, better off not driving.
