    Stopped in for lunch while in Cambridge. Service was fast and friendly and the order came out in…read moregood time from the kitchen. I had the Truffle Hunter burger. The restaurant description: Finest dry-aged beef, cheddar cheese, tomato, date & walnut jam, caramelised onions, rocket, honey & truffle mayo. I had the burger sans onions and it was quite good. The sweetness of the date & walnut jam was a nice balance to the umami flavor of the beef. The bun held up well with all the ingredients in-between which made for a pleasant dining experience...if you've ever had a burger on a disintegrating bun, you'll appreciate a good quality bun like they use here. The Parmesan and Truffle Chips we're just okay. Not much parmesan and any truffle oil used was not detectable. I would probably just recommend the regular chips instead. Overall I'm recommending Butch Annie's for when you're in Cambridge and craving a high quality burger. They also have a pretty good Classic Rock playlist going (for your listening pleasure) so your ears don't get jealous of your tongue.

    This is a terrific little Indian place on Regent St. The location is quite close to most other…read morethings of interest in Cambridge. The storefront is rather unobtrusive while the interior is relatively cozy with a sedate atmosphere. I went in on a Sunday evening and it was moderately busy. However, I was on my own and was able to be seated quite quickly. My server attended to me right away and did a very good job taking care of me. The menu offered several favorites. I chose the Chicken Dopiaza as a main accompanied by Punjabi Chole and Peshwari Naan. It was all excellent. The contrast between the sweet taste of the naan and the spice of the curry proved a very good combination. My final bill with everything included (drink, food and tax) was £23.95. This was just under $32 USD at the time. I was quite happy with this value. I will consider another visit next time I am in Cambridge.

    Unequivocally the best Indian restaurant in the city center of Cambridge. Most standard curry…read morehouses in the UK tend to oversaturate their dishes with excessive amounts of oil and grease. Vedanta, on the other hand, eschews this ubiquitous practice of "over-oiling" in favor of a more finesse-based approach. The end product is an absolutely delightful array of curry comestibles. Ample vegetarian options are available on the menu. It is certainly not the spiciest eating establishment in Cambridge - but if you are a heat-seeker, you can certainly ask the staff the increase the spice-level if you are so inclined. In sum, a delicious option for standard North Indian fare within easy walking distance of the bus station and the train station. As a one time student at the university, I searched extensively for the best place in town to get a curry - and this is undoubtedly it! Pro Tip: You should consider making a reservation on weekends, as it can sometimes get busy - otherwise you might have to wait for a bit for a table to open up.

    My, my, my, what a weird little place you are, Shiraz. Sure, I went to see you on a friend date…read more Sure, we were pre-movie early birds. But why you remained awkwardly empty--aside from the owner eating at one of the tables in the back--for the whole hour and change we were there still perplexes me. Especially since the owner/server was oddly charming, the Persian (does Persia still exist in the world of Culinaria?) tea was sweet but pleasing, the Vegetable Bourek was tasty, and the Moussaka was pretty excellent. So why did the dining experience leave me feeling like I just took down cheese-covered lentils in the Orientalist Twilight Zone? Oh, Shiraz--you might not have the aura of a "winner," but I like you anyway. So, Dear Reader, help a poor restaurant out--the next time you and your group want to go out for a lively meal, book Shiraz. The food is reasonably priced, they have cheap house wine, and a browse on localsecrets.com should turn up an offer or two. Whether you have the heart to cash in a 20% off food coupon as the only table in the house is up to you--I sure didn't.

    Really nice restaurant. The food was delicious with good range of vegetarian dishes. The mixed…read moreplatter starter was a great way to see the general quality of the food - excellent hummus and tasty pita bread (which could've been a bit warmer). It's a shame the restaurant was so empty when we arrived at 7pm. The waitress was very friendly and helpful, and the prices were reasonable. If you're looking for something a bit different in Cambridge, I highly recommend it - makes a change from yet another 'Italian' restaurant!
