    I called ahead to ask which curry had food color, and they confidently recommended the Paneer Makhani. Big mistake. When it arrived, it looked nothing like the real thing -- just Google what Paneer Makhani is supposed to look like. Most Indian restaurants in the U.S. (especially in the South, not NY) throw in a bit of color to make dishes look "Indian," but this one went all out. The dish had maybe five tiny pieces of paneer -- all bright pink, thanks to the food dye -- and that pretty much killed my mood and appetite. It tasted like pasta sauce mixed with sugar and a dash of regret. Honestly, you've probably got all the ingredients at home already, and since there's barely any paneer, you won't miss much by skipping this place. Save your money -- and your taste buds

    Delicious. Great service. Attentive owner. Dining at the front patio is wonderful. I've been dining here for well over a year and I'm always satisfied.

    This place is a gem! If you're seeking a delicious and enjoyable dining experience, please check out Indian Summer. We dined outside on a comfortable mid-May evening and the food and service were fantastic!

    Mango Lassi and Veg. Samosa

    I absolutely love this place!! The service is so friendly (shout out Shamima) and the vibe is relaxed and cozy, especially on the patio when the weather is nice!! When I go, I always start with the veggie samosa. For my entree I've loved the Chicken Madras, but my FAVORITE has to be the Special Tawa Chicken with garlic naan. Of course, I have to get a mango lassi and have also had their Ras Malai which was AMAZING!!! I love this place so much and would recommend it to anyone!!

    The food is very good and the prices are reasonable. The mango lassi is refreshing and not too sweet. The duck dishes are also quite tasty. The only drawback is that food ordered to go does not taste as good, but that may be due to the transport time from the restaurant to home.

    Free rice

    Loved it here! Food was so good and flavorful, the naan was perfectly fluffy and garlicky/buttery, the rice was delicious, and our server was very attentive! You also get a good amount of food for the price- I easily made two meals out of my dish, especially with filling up on the naan. Additionally, the rice comes with the entrees and you can order as much as you want. Personally, my favorite was the Chicken Madras, which was a little spicy with a lot of creamy flavor. My friends got the 1/2 tandoori chicken, which get out on a steaming plate, and the salmon tikka which I thought was lacking in flavor a bit. My only complaint was that I felt the food needed more salt but that's more of a personal preference and once I added the salt, it was delicious! We got 2x garlic naan, the dal shorba, 3 entrees and 3 glasses of wine- it came out to ~40/person

    The food is delicious. The ambiance and the service is excellent and friendly. Was our second time here, and we are excited to come back and try different menu items.

    I got the wings. Very little of it was edible because they were cooked until the meat fused with the bone.

    But can we get into this food!???…read more I ordered the Double-Mac w/ Fried Shrimp . Not only did it taste AMAZING, but they have the A1 customer service to match!! #Support this #BLACKOWNED business! I know I'll definitely be coming back for more.

    Arrived at 1:15 PM, they allegedly open at 1pm, and falsely advertise lunch specials from 1-4pm on…read moretheir menu. I thought they were closed, as the lights were off and it looked empty. The door was unlocked and when I got inside, it was dark and there was one employee present, with his head down. He then asked me if it was 1pm several times like he's not even tracking the time/ no device or watch near him, then I'm like it's 1:15pm. He is the only employee present (basically cashier, cook & anything else). I asked him about the lunch specials and to clarify which meals the deal applied to, he pointed to a chalk board with a bunch of options, I chose one from the list. Claimed order would take about 5 mins, took 15 extra minutes, made me late to work. Then when the food came out, it was $30 and the 2nd employee who had come in (late) claimed they didn't have the lunch deal anymore. I clarified that I asked the person cooking in the back (only other person there) when I arrived SPECIFICALLY about which meals the deal applied to and he gave me the choices on the board. She then looked around with a dumb look like she was confused, despite him just having given me that misinformation and he stayed quiet in the back. She basically just said well this is how much it is, expecting me to pay $30 for a meal they falsely advertised as a lunch deal. Kindly left the whole order there and said I'll talk to Yelp. Don't advertise a deal from 1-4pm and have it in writing and have employees confirming it exists and then once the food is made, expect someone to be SCAMMED and pressured into paying full price. Very disorganized, unprofessional and dishonest. What kind of business has employees forgetting to open, sleeping in the dark, other employee showing up even more late and then falsely advertises a lunch deal and the employees aren't even on the same page on whether or not it exists. Feel like they were trying to take advantage and exploit me for my $, despite it being their mistake and expecting me to just pay like a clown. Ridiculous I was late back to work, despite it being a 2 min walk from my job and me being the first customer there, 15 mins after opening. Just to not even get any food and starve all day because they advertise a lunch deal to pull people in and then charge them full price like SCAMMERS. STAY AWAY AND SAVE YOURSELF THE WASTED TIME AND EMPTY STOMACH. Love supporting my Black businesses but the few that operate like they're doing somebody a favor, or serving a free plate, need to learn what being a business looks like. (& that's for all businesses not just Black ones but still)

    Delicious food as always Strong drinks…read moreGreat service Speedy service Great atmosphere I'll definitely come back

    I have good and bad things to say about Ricardo Steak House. I'll start with the bad…read more The initial walk-in did not give me steakhouse vibes, especially with security at the entrance outside. It felt a little rough around the edges. There were people just hanging out in the front smoking and just standing around seeing what the vibe was like.. Basically like the same energy when you pull up to a club. Then comes the lobby area--there's no room. Everyone is standing on top of each other, and the bar is right there, so the bartender constantly has to squeeze past you. The layout definitely needs to change. We came in with a group of 9 and made reservations for 6:30, but we didn't get seated until 7:30. That definitely pissed me off. Now let's talk about the good, because the good is actually good enough for me to deal with the sketchy vibe in the front. The staff was amazing--the server, the bartenders, the hostess, the security, the waiters--everyone was kind and accommodating. The food was amazing. It was the juiciest steak I've ever had. I got the ribeye steak with sautéed spinach and yellow rice. It had small slices of garlic spread on top of the steak with rosemary. Absolutely amazing. The music was a vibe. Pretty much everything was good once I sat down. Everyone in my group enjoyed their meals. I would definitely come back, and I recommend this place for the food and the vibe you get once you sit down.
