And the prices are not inflated to account for those 2 for 1s! Samosa chaat was very good. Mango lassi was delicious (comes in a house made can, kind of cool). Biryani was very good, perfect spice. Tikka masala I like a little bit sweeter (sorry I know that's basic of me) but I easily could have drizzled a little honey. All dishes came with dal on the side (only $3 to add!). Probably the best value Indian restaurant I've ordered from on this coast. Will definitely be a frequent customer!

The interior was beautiful with pretty decor of delicate designs and a welcoming atmosphere. We started off with complimentary Papadum, a thin, crispy wafers, which I enjoyed with tamarind sauce, as well as a medley of pickled onion, cucumber, and red peppers. For my meal, I ordered the Tandoori Mix Grill, consisting of Lamb, Chicken, Fish, and Shrimp. This was also served with lentils, rice, and salad. Presentation was very nice and portions were quite generous. I really enjoyed the seafood, but there was only 1 piece of Fish and 1 Shrimp. I would have preferred less Lamb and Chicken to have more seafood. Fish and Shrimp were tender and well seasoned. Lamb was succulent, juicy, and full of wonderful flavor. Tandoori Chicken was cooked expertly, with perfect char. I also got to try the Veggie Samosa and Garlic Naan. Samosa was chock full of potatoes, peas, other veggies and the outer shell was satisfyingly crunchy. Garlic Naan was light, buttery, with plenty of yummy garlic. For dessert, I just had to get the special Rose Falooda beverage, which came with Rose ice cream mixed with what tasted like pistachios and vermicelli noodles. This was a gorgeous pink color, and tasted rich, sweet, fragrant, which was simply delightful. Service was solid. Our waiter was friendly and attentive. Everything came out in a timely manner and we were well taken care of throughout. Prices were reasonable.

That sums up my visit to Pariwaar Delights this week. Pariwaar certainly puts on a good face. Sandwich boards outside promise delicious food. The interior is beautifully decorated with modern lighting, furniture and unusual cutlery. At first things seemed okay. My partner and I were seated quickly because...well, we were only one of two whole parties in the place (but it was Sunday evening so read into that what you will). We had seen a sign outside for a Mutton Biriyani, but on the menu they only listed goat. So here's where the initial confusion began. Depending on where you are, Mutton and Goat are not necessarily the same thing. Mutton can refer to sheep while Goat is well...goat. In some restaurants however, the two can be used interchangeably. So when we started to order, we mentioned the mutton and the waiter (who barely spoke above a whisper and had a deer in the headlights look the entire time) kept saying "goat". We went back and forth three times. He could have easily just said "Here goat *is* mutton" but he never did. After that back and forth, we ordered several dishes including the Indian Masala Wings as an appetizer and the Goat Mandi. This is important to my tale. Within 10-15 minutes some of our food came out including garlic naan, sesame naan and chaan masala. All of this was good, but as we ate we began to wonder where our other dishes were. So we ate and then we waited. We waited a half hour. During that time, the waiter never checked on us. Indeed, at times both the waiter and the host/cashier just disappeared into the kitchen for five to ten minutes at a time. When I finally got their attention, I asked them where our Goat Mandi and Masala wings were. For some bizarre reason, they thought we asked for the Goat Mandi to go (we never said the words "to go" when we ordered) and they claim we never ordered the wings (I asked for the wings three times). I told them we'd take the dish to go along with our leftovers. At that point I just wanted to get out of there. I'm not even going to go into detail on the food. Overall, the food was good but definitely overpriced. These were Manhattan prices in Hoboken. It's not worth having to deal with horrible service and okay food.

We came here shortly after their opening after waiting in great anticipation for about a year. I'm giving one extra star just for the benefit of the doubt because they just opened, or maybe I ordered the wrong things. The menu is not very vegetarian-friendly. Samosa chaat was lacking in yogurt and tamarind sauce. Very heavy on the chickpeas. Paneer makhani biryani was just lots of dry rice, dry paneer, lacking flavor. We barely touched it. There were items on the menu we asked for that they didn't have. Their prices are a bit high for basically fast-food quality. There is a 4% cash discount btw. The owner seemed very nice and earnest. I think they should include some more universally enjoyed Indian staples on the menu just to get more people in the door, and then people will venture into the mandi and biryani. Best of luck.

I've even impressed my LA friend because why would someone in Los Feliz go all the way to Culver City? That brings me to Chef of India. I lack the expertise to convey the intensity of the Chilli Masala Idli but urge you to try this flavor powerhouse. The restaurant's own description doesn't go into much detail, noting "chilli sauce and South Indian spices," but I can respect that they're saving their energy for the cooking rather typing. There's a strong garlic vibe and some onions, but I'm not skilled enough to discern the many other ingredients at work here.
