I am slowly eating my way through the food carts at tThe Barn at Hickory Station and this time I…read moretried the Indian food at Sandirk's Rasoi. The menu has a large selection of standard Indian food fare, including vegetarian and meat dishes. It's for your Greatest Hits of Indian food without getting two deep, although except for one snack of fish fritters, the only meat available is chicken. That being said, I'd like to try every one of the meat dishes. Chicken Tikka Masala, Chicken Curry, Chicken Tandoori, Chicken Biryani...yes, please. My partner FINALLY got me to a place to enjoy Indian food. As this was my first time here, though, I opted for the most basic of dishes and went with the Butter Chicken. Chicken pieces in a tomato curry sauce, this is usually a signature dish of any restaurant and how a place makes it seems to largely determine how good everything else is, in my opinion. So ordering was fast and easy. I was asked how spicy I wanted it. I said "as spicy as you can make it." The man at the window smirked at that and I confirmed I was serious, and saw him wrote "spicy +" on my ticket, so I think he took it seriously then. Honestly, so many times my partner and I ask for "spicy" and get a bland mild....like we don't know what spicy is. To be fair, I know a lot of places get complaints for being "too spicy" when someone doesn't known what they're doing, but we really like it hot and don't need to be protected. Anyways, I ordered that and some garlic naan. When my order was ready, it came bagged up with my food, a paper plate, and a knife and fork disposable bag kit. The chicken itself was in a plastic sealed cup and there was a box of basmati rice. It was also very hot, temperature wise. I waited for my partner to get her seafood and then I went to town. Long story short (too late), it was good. There was A LOT of chicken, the curry was very spicy without being overpowering, but I definitely felt it. It was a hot day outside and the food did it's job of making me sweat and cooling me down. The sauce was wonderful and was great with the rice as well as why dipping the naan. The naan was standard but had a good, not heavy, garlic flavor. A bit dry but it is an unleavened bread. I dipped it in the curry and it was quite good. So far this has been one of my favorite meals at the Barn, and I'm looking forward to going back and trying the tandoori and the biryani.

We were visiting the area and someone picked this place ratings looked good and the decor is nice…read morebut it all went south from there. We showed up in stages but the bartender must have been having a bad day he would get one drink order at a time is what my peeps told me, I thought they were joking. We ordered 2 Bloody Marys and one didn't taste like it had any alcohol in it so we mixed the 2 together. The food came out real slow and kind of haphazardly. I will say the hummus was good. The menu is American and Indian so I was excited. Some people's burgers were way over done and after the food all came out, I was informed they were all out of Dahl Makhani Which was disappointing. So I asked for Chana masala and after a while they came and told me that they were out of that too, so I settled for a black and blue burger with tots. My burger came and thankfully it wasn't overdone and it came with fries. Now the last 2 at the table are still waiting for their burgers none too happy. As I finish my Bloody Mary I notice a 1 1/2 inch crack in my glass which I take up to the bartender and let him know, he didn't say anything. Now in the meantime 2 people at the table are saying the chicken Caesar wrap they ordered didn't taste right and opened it up to find what looked like curried chicken chunks that were rinsed off inside the wrap. A while later I order to Kona's for my friend and I, a while later he comes over to tell me they are out of Kona, so I order 2 different beers, and as I am getting down to the end of my beer there's a shard of glass. I take this up to the bars and tell the guy and show him letting him know I think I swallowed a piece and they better check the dishwasher or something. He throws the shard of glass in the garbage and walks away. The kicker 3 of us had bad stomach aches the next day. I don't know what's going on but I would avoid this place

At this time they refused to honor our gift certificate that had been purchased within the proceeding 2 months, stating that they had changed ownership.

There were only 2-3 other tables inside. The 2 of us ordered the lamb samosas, boti kabob, saag paneer, and chicken biriyani (and 2 mango lassi's, unpictured). My favorites were: - Lamb Samosa: perfectly crisp, lamb filling was seasoned beautifully, and the tamarind and mint sauces paired so well - Chicken Biriyani: good amount of spices and seasoning, and the chicken was tender and not at all dry I enjoyed the other dishes as well, but I didn't enjoy them as much as the samosas and Biriyani - boti kabob: this came on a sizzling plate, and I feel like this made the lamb really dry. It was pretty tough to chew, which was a bit disappointing - saag paneer: this dish was good, but could've used more flavor. It paired fairly nicely with the garlic naan, which gave it some more flavor I thought was lacking.

Our food took an inordinate amount of time to arrive but when it did it was delivered by a lovely gracious woman. The young man never checked in to see how everything was or if we desired anything. We had needed another 2 sets of flatware since we were 4 and there were only 2 place settings. I was forced to get up and go to another table to retrieve the place settings as our "server/ waiter" was absent. We ordered a chai for my 90 year old father prior to even ordering our meal yet it arrived WITH dinner and was placed nowhere near my father but on the other side of the condiments causing him to reach for it OVER the condiments, while ending up spilling hot chai on himself. My sister asked how this young man's father was, he replied, " he is home watching a game or something he doesn't come in on Saturdays unless he is covering me." If this is indeed the owner's son his attitude and behaviour is even more appalling ! My sister ordered dessert for my father,we had a table full of empty plates and dishes yet this guy did not remove any of them, he just set the sweet among them. I finally asked him to please take them away and even that he did not do immediately. When I asked for our cheque he told me that I must come to the counter. Had this been an exceptionally busy time in the restaurant we may have had a bit more patience but as it was not busy we certainly cannot understand the lack of service nor the very spacey and lackadaisical attitude. To note: upon arrival near 5 p.m today / Saturday as a party of 4 which included my sister & parents, patrons of this restaurant for years, there was only a table of 4 present hence this was not a bustling, busy afternoon. Sadly after our very lackluster experience tonight neither my parents, sister nor I will be returning or recommending Cuisine India !! There are numerous options for Indian food in Salem now. They offer great service, food, overall experience, and appreciation of their guests.

This might take a little longer to prepare so be courteous with your wait. The gentlemen working on 9/15/25, I did not catch his name, gave me a heads up that it will take a bit longer. Let me tell you, it was worth the wait. When it was ready, I could smell the aromatics thru the light breeze and it had me floating over. (imagine a cartoon character floating over while twinkling their toes). The gentlemen asked if it was for here or to go, because he wanted me to try it and let him know how it was. I said it was to go, but I sat back down with my wife to finish our drink and tried it out. I tried a bite and ended up eating a whole piece of chicken lol...SHEESH! I had to let him know that it was excellent on my way out and what he recommended for me next time around. So far, they are killing it and I wanna give a shout out to the worker on 9/15/25 for his friendly service and recommendations! I can't wait to try the other items :)
