Curry Up Now in Durham boasts a fantastic location and a welcoming atmosphere. The staff were friendly and attentive, adding to the overall pleasant dining experience. The ambiance is vibrant, making it a nice spot to grab a quick bite.
However, when it comes to the food, the experience is somewhat mixed. While some items were enjoyable, the menu features several twists that stray far from authentic Indian flavors. Dishes with stuff like jam on rice, mozzarella on curry sauce, and curry burritos with avocado, although creative, didn't taste good, and miss the mark for Indian cuisine enthusiasts, in addition of being overpriced for what they offer.
If you're in the mood for a quick and casual meal, Curry Up Now might just do the trick. But for those craving a true taste of Indian cuisine, this might not be the spot. Despite the lack of authenticity, the overall dining experience was still enjoyable thanks to the great staff and lively vibes.
