I came here for lunch. The place was empty, and we needed to wait for someone to sit us down, probably because they had opened not too long beofre. We ordered the chettinad goat curry, half tandoori chicken, masala chai, and garlic naan, all with medium spice level.
It took some time to get our dishes, again likely because they had just opened. They did mention ahead of time that some items, like the chai, would take longer. After 20 minutes or so, everything except the chai came out together.
* Chettinad goat curry: 5/5. It was excellent, with strong spices and very flavorful small chunks of meat.
* Garlic naan: 4.5/5. It had a nice garlic flavor and was on the thinner side with crispy edges. However, I personally prefer the soft, pillowy naan.
* Tandoori chicken: 4/5. It was nicely cooked and came with tamarind and mint chutney; I slightly preferred the tamarind chutney for its sweetness, which complemented the spices. It also came with a side salad that had a light, sweet mustard dressing.
* Masala chai: 4.5/5. It was very traditional and tasted good, though it was kind of small for the price, and I prefer mine slightly sweeter and creamier.
The service was very good; they were very nice and treated us well. Overall, this was one of the best Indian places I've had in SF, and I would come here again.
