    The Tikka Marsala is outstanding! Service is prompt. Atmosphere is calm. We will most certainly be back for more dishes.

    Took my mom and uncle out for dinner, and this was honestly terrible. The bathrooms were dirty and unsanitary, and the appetizers were so bad we didn’t even bother ordering entrées. Everything tasted premade and reheated and still came out cold. The Caesar salad was dark, wilted, and looked days old. Our waitress was amazing — kind, attentive, and the only highlight of the night. She tried to help by removing the salads from the bill, but after she called the owner, they refused to take anything else off. The drinks were okay, but the atmosphere was dead — no music, no customers, and it looked like the place had shut down. The saddest part is we came here 6–8 months ago for a birthday party in the lounge and had a great time. I don’t know what happened since, but this place has gone downhill fast. Another couple even sat down and left right back out. Huge disappointment for what was supposed to be a birthday celebration.

    I have seen the articles about this place and saw many bad reviews, but I thought I will check out for a Lunch and see it myself. I invited two of my colleagues and went for Lunch. The place was deserted and we thought it was closed. But someone came and said we are open. We were the only customers there. The one staff there did not much of the menu. We ordered some basic soft drinks-which were not available. Only coke available they said. We asked if there was another menu or any specials- the employee did not know. While we were waiting a cleaning lady came and started Moping the place with bleach and the smell of bleach start spreading every where. We thought of just walking out, but said will give a chance. The menu was nothing appetizing and over priced. A colleague mine and me ordered just the chicken fried rice, since we thought the place looks eerie that may be the safest. Another colleague ordered wrap and fries to be on the safe side. A while later the food arrived- Fried rice was not very appetizing or good. Now anyone can make a good fried rice, but this had no flavor. We paid the bill and left. The place looks awful and the food just horrible. Wish we had never ventured into this place.
