    Got takeout from this spot and had a good experience! I did takeout from the Yelp app and liked that it showed me updates about my order directly in the app. The food was ready in about 20 min, which is great timing in my book. I was greeted at the front by one of the staff and they got my order to me right away. I did have to remind them about my mango Lassi, but by the time I reminded them there was already another waiter walking it over to me. I got the paneer tikka masala and it was lovely. Very much a comfort food. The mild was a little mild in flavor, so I might get a mild/med next time to add a bit more oomph to the dish. Generous serving of rice and the mango lassi was lovely! I will definitely come back for takeout and hope they make an appearance on some popular delivery apps soon.

    Ordered the BBQ meat platter and beef Nihari. The BBQ was great but the nihari didn't have enough flavor or any ginger in it. Service was okay too.

    Bay leaf is one of my favorite restaurants in Bothell. Family owned and run, the food is outstanding! My favorite appetizers are the chicken pakora and dolmathes. The chicken is crunchy and comes with a unique, tasty sauce. The dolmathes are classic grape leaves with good herbs. Main dishes that I love are the butter masala and the Chile chicken. You can't go wrong with anything you get here though. The Biryani is spicy. Full bar for those who fancy a drink with dinner. Classic decor, rarely too busy. Wonderful service.

    Garlic Naan

    Went in around 6ish on a Friday evening. The staff were very friendly and courteous. They did keep checking on us (probably she must be the manager or the owner is my wild guess). Ambience was also good. These are the items which we ordered - Paneer Tikka Appetizer - good Chilli Paneer - very good Gyro Platter - very good (loved the meat texture and softness) KARAHI (GOAT) - very good Garlic Naan - good Chai - good, felt great after getting wet in the rain Kulfi - good They do serve alcohol as well. I would definitely recommend this place and would visit once again later. Parking is a pain if you are totally new to this location. It would either be street parking or the parking in the garage behind (all spaces were marked resident parking, so I am not sure which one is reserved for the restaurant). You can probably park in the town hall parking across the restaurant.

    Fun place to stop by! There is lots of seating options and a private party room. I got the pomegranate gin and tonic and it was tasty. It wasn't too sweet and just the right balance.

    Garlic Naan

    We've been here twice for dinner now and both times we were left wondering why this restaurant wasn't packed. It's a family-owned Indian restaurant with delicious food and genuinely kind service! The garlic naan is some of the best we've had--soft, buttery, and packed with flavor. And the coconut chicken curry is absolutely incredible. Rich, creamy, perfectly spiced, and savory chicken --comfort food at its finest. It's been pretty empty during both our visits, which is such a shame because this spot truly deserves more love. If you're in the area, skip the chains and support this local gem. You won't regret it!

    I dine at this restaurant occasionally. It never disappoints. Great family run place. Super friendly people. The menu has a lot of great choices. Appetizers are delicious. I will definitely keep coming back for the amazing Indian food. They knock it out of the park every time.

    We have gotten takeout from here a couple of times and finally had dinner here recently. They have a lot of seating space inside, and the service is friendly and quick. We got Tandoori Chicken, Goat Curry, and Tandoori Roti. We loved the Goat Curry, Tandoori Roti and Tandoori Chicken were good. For dessert we got Kulfi and Rasmalai. Both our desserts were very good, the Kulfi portion was double of what were expecting.

    Nice clean place, server was nice. Didn't know it was an Indian Cuisine till we saw the menu and heard the music, place had a modern decor. Full bar and decent size menu. Food was delicious, fresh and every bite tasted better than the other. Food did take a bit of time but was definitely worth the wait. Highly recommended if you are hungry and ready to overload with carbs.

    Briyani was mixed with white rice which didn't make sense. Curry and naan only so so. Expensive for the quality.

    Food was okay. The chicken tikka masala was way too sweet and they don't give you enough rice for how much comes in the dish.

About 10 minutes from the Woodenville winery. As we stepped inside, a warm and enchanting ambiance wrapped around us, filled with the harmonious sounds of clinking glasses and plates that blended in perfect harmony. The heavenly aroma of freshly prepared food wafted through the air, teasing our senses and building excitement while the cozy decor instantly elevated our mood. With an exceptional selection of wine and drinks, plus captivating indoor and outdoor seating, it seemed every whim was thoughtfully catered to. Despite arriving at 1:00 to a lively crowd, we were seated promptly, thanks to the impeccable and exceptional service. Our server's remarkable attentiveness and expertise set the tone for a truly unforgettable meal, and another staff member exceeded our expectations, sharing delightful stories about all their special events, such as Happy Hour and Wine Wednesday, and inviting us back for dinner. She shared that the biscuits we inquired about were made in-house, a testament to the restaurant's pursuit of excellence. With customer service that inspires and leaves a lasting impression, we can't wait to return and relish the experience once more. I highly recommend the Biscuits and gravy, Eggs Benedict, or the Cottage Breakfast; all were truly spectacular! This place truly deserves a spot on your must-visit list, and I highly recommend it.
