When my friend told me about this brand-new spot, I was so hyped to try it. Red Chilli did not disappoint. Between the incredible food, flawless service, and an ambiance that whispers, "You're fancy now," this place is an instant favorite.
The service was impeccable. The staff struck that rare balance of being attentive without hovering. My water glass never dipped below half, and the food arrived so promptly, I was almost suspicious they were reading my mind. If Red Chilli ran the DMV, the world would be a better place.
* Gobi Manchurian ($10.99)
Tangy, spicy, and crispy in all the right ways, this was an excellent opener. It's the kind of dish that makes you wonder why cauliflower doesn't get more love. A solid 4/5, only because I now know what greatness tastes like (see pic below).
* Paneer Tikka Masala ($16.99)
This dish didn't just steal the show -- it became the show. Creamy, perfectly spiced, and unapologetically rich, it was love at first bite. If I could give it 6/5, I would. Medium spice was the perfect choice, but honestly, this dish could carry any level of heat and still shine. 5/5.
Garlic Naan ($9.98/2):
I don't use the term "perfect" lightly, but this naan earned it. Soft, buttery, and heavy on the garlic, it's the type of bread that doesn't just complement a meal -- it defines it. If you don't order this, we can't be friends. 5/5.
Overall, I'll give this spot a 5.
Note: They add a 20% service charge for parties of four or more.
