Overall food was great, service is what lowered the star rating. If it weren't for the way my…read morewaitress spoke to me, I would give a 5 star rating.
We ordered lentil soup, samosa chaat, chicken tikka, mango pickle aka Achar, raita (which comes in a to go container) plain naan and garlic naan.
The achar was so good and it was the first time I actually tasted the mango in it. I loved the samosa chaat however my Pakistani husband said it was just okay but very fresh. The naan is tandoor baked, thin, and fresh.
Everything else was delicious, we both agreed.
Unfortunately the food came out in a strange order, with the soup coming out last, and we would have liked to enjoy the soup first.
The waitress who sat us was very warm and polite and even came running from out back when we made eye contact (I was looking behind me towards the fridge to see what drinks they had, but she thought I was looking at her.)
Our waitress (Nepali, long hair) was sort of correcting me while I was ordering. I asked for mango pickle, she looked at my husband and said "you want achar?" My husband asked if a dish was spicy, she looked at me and said we can make it mild (he can't have spicy, I can) My husband had recent dental work and is avoiding spicy food. She was talking really nicely to him, but kind of talked down to me like I'm a dumb Gori who doesn't know anything about desi food.
As she started bringing food out I asked if she got the order for garlic naan. She said she'll add it. When we were ordering I feel like she was not interested in paying attention to what I was saying. It was to the point of making me uncomfortable. I was already tired from a long 2 days of our road trip including driving about 15 hours. I didn't have the energy to say anything to her.
After asking for the garlic naan, her attitude was harsher towards me. Towards the end of the meal, I was talking with my husband and said the food is really good here, but the service could improve. I didn't yell, I was speaking to him. Waitress comes by immediately and says if you like the food and service, please leave a review. It really helps our restaurant... She gave me a dirty look, and by this time, my husband really noticed (I didn't say anything to him as he was the one driving us and was tired and silly girl behavior is something I typically try to look past)
We ate here on Monday October 5 for dinner. There was a man eating alone and I noticed both waitresses were talkative and polite with him. To be fair.
My impression is our waitress was taking out her bad mood or whatever on me. She was almost bullying me. I was so tired, too tired to say anything. But if she acts like this with other customers, the restaurant will lose. The food is delicious, the chef is excellent. This waitress? Poor, poor experience.
