The food stood out right away--not just because it was served hot and fresh, but because it actually had depth and flavor. That's not something I can usually say about other Indian restaurants I've tried, where the spices often feel watered down or flat. The waiter who helped us was attentive without hovering, and the timing between courses was just right. You could tell the kitchen puts care into each dish, and nothing felt rushed or reheated. All in all, it was a solid experience and one we'll likely come back for. If you're in the area and craving Indian food that doesn't hold back on flavor, Nirvana is worth a visit. One thing I want to point out. Don't always go by a negative review on any restaurant. It's a fact that negative reviews end up online more often than positive reviews. A pissed off customer wants to tell the whole world but a happy customer just tells his circle of friends and family. Try it for yourself and then be your own judge.

I'm confused by this place. It is an upscale Asian fusion tapas spot. Interesting concept, but the…read moretiny portions for steep prices and long waits for rather average food was not for me. Miso soup was pretty standard. The french onion soup dumplings were interesting but I would not have them again. I thought the tuna carpaccio was very good, fresh, and flavorful. The chicken jalapeño dumplings were alright. I would not go there expecting a filling meal. Service was friendly but slow and halted. We had a couple servers and they kind of were both taking orders and it got confusing. It was not a particularly busy day - we were one of three customers groups and the others were at the bar, and not ordering much from the kitchen.

I love tapas as much as the next person. It's a great opportunity to try a few "small plates"…read moreinstead of ordering an entire meal. I came here on a Tuesday night with a large group of 12. We were split evenly into 2 different tables on the outdoor patio in the back. People at my table each ordered 2-3 different tapas. There was A LOT of time between when each tapa came out. Up to 45 minutes! Some tapas didn't even come out at all. I'm not sure he's the situation was at the other table, but I overheard the same thing, that some people didn't get anything they ordered...and at this moment, over an hour had gone by. Our waiter kept blaming "the computer system" and saying "I don't know." He wasn't very apologetic or anything. He would just repeat that it was a computer error. When it was time for the bill, both tables bills were wrong and it had to be fixed multiple times. Even when we were ready to pay. It was all ready, and they wanted to fix the bill again. It was ridiculous and uncalled for. Service was absolutely terrible. On to the food... I ordered a cucumber salad. Menu stated it had cucumbers, avocado and onion. When it came out it didn't have onion, but had feta cheese. I am not a fan of feta at all. I didn't bother sending it back, as it already took nearly 45 minutes for a salad. After navigating around the feta, the salad had decent flavor. I also ordered salmon capriccio. It was light and tasty. It took a while to come out, and it's not even something that has to be cooked. Not overly impressed. Service was terrible, wait times for food was unacceptable and flavors were just okay.

The second time around we came for my mom's bday and Father's Day yesterday and everything was delicious. I do wish the butter chicken had more pieces of chicken. My favorite item was the Paneer and desserts as always. The Smoky Delhi, Espresso Martini and the Bellini drinks were so good as well. My parents can be quite picky and really enjoyed the goat biryani and said it was the perfect spice level for them. The ambience is pretty and they made sure to provide my family with comfortable seating as I notated it's my mother's bday and I wanted my parents to be as comfortable as possible. A special shout out to Sophia for being the best waitress ever and being so accommodating to my family!

The cocktails all had an Indian twist, the Shikanji sour was very light and refreshing, you definitely tasted the masala. For appetizer we had the cheese balls which were very good, a nice sized portion & the Lucknowi Kabob which is a minced lamb patty (3 pieces). They were spicy and very tasty but i prefer lamb chunks as opposed to minced. For entree I had the butter chicken and garlic naan which is my go to and it did not disappoint, the dish was spicier than expected, it should be labeled as chicken tikka masala. The portion is large enough for 2. My friend had the Goan Fish Curry which was delicious! A smaller portion. We don't normally order fish but the waiter highly recommended and we're glad we tried it. It was the best thing we had all night. Very different and elevated, this dish embodied the vibe of the restaurant. For dessert I was disappointed that they didn't have rasmalai, we tried the LITCHI KI TEHRI which was like a lychee pudding, it was very delectable and different. A little pricey for Indian food but worth it for an elevated experience and great food ($100pp) Can't wait to return to this restaurant to try their brunch.

Hospitality: -- the friendly, generous reception and entertainment of guests, visitors, or…read morestrangers, creating a welcoming, comfortable, and safe environment, making others feel valued and at home. This brings us to The James, managed by Joe Giannino under the fat-cat "Standard Hospitality Group," owned by Andrew Affa & Steve Squirtiro. It's hard owning a business and keeping it profitable but not when it's an almost algorithmic formula driven money extraction system so commonly found today. It's more difficult dining out in the world today when it feels like hospitality is vacating. Vining more about high-revenue than humanity. By very definition, I wouldn't call a good portion of the hospitality industry hospitality at all, and I certainly wouldn't say the James offers any. What I love about food is what it does for the soul, & what I've always loved about providing and caring for people is the sense of community; connection during good times and difficult ones alike; That's hospitality to me. Breaking bread is one of the most fundamental human gestures of generosity and true wealth. When you have it, you share it not squander it, not hoard it or treat it like it's something to take from others and line your pockets with. That's why this experience disappointed me so much, because I believe with the myriad of options, we must be far more selective and far more supportive of local and smaller family run establishments. Today, for a table they would still fill and never notice, I tried to cancel a reservation out of respect -- respect for the staff, for other guests, and for my damn self. Being charged a cancellation fee when a mom is sick on Mothers Day, is not hospitality, it is not empathy. It is greed disguised as brand experience self worth. I have supported the Arlo from this same restaurant group in the past and probably would have happily returned too, based on the menu alone, but coldhearted, rigid policies like this change how a place feels. There are many family-run restaurants that understand flexibility and empathy. That kind of environment matters to me, and this experience will forever make me decide to support those places instead. I've recently learned to name positive outcomes when something negative arises, so I believe this time, it's great that it only cost me fifty bucks to never give this group another dime. Typical corporate hospitality is more what the James can offer. These types of COMPANIES feed themselves, not the community.

I was really looking forward to the zucchini fries, so I was a little disappointed that they seemed to lack actual zucchini. Truthfully, with just a little more care they could have been exceptional. The street corn was pretty good overall, but I felt it was missing that fresh squeeze of lime and some chopped cilantro to really bring all the flavors together. ‍ Now, the peach bourbon... you can definitely taste the bourbon! No complaints there I ordered the lamb tacos and they were very flavorful, filling and definitely one of the highlights of the meal. The fried cheese was also delicious and surprisingly filling. Overall, not a bad experience at all. A unique fusion concept with a lot of potential and just a few small details away from really standing out. Would definitely be interested in coming back and trying more of the menu!
