Look, here's the good an the bad. The ambience is a bit lacking. It's not really the kind of place you'd take a date to. However, when I was driving by the other day, I saw two men loading aluminum trays of food into their car. It was after 4:00 and, believe it or not, I hadn't eaten anything yet. I pulled into the parking lot and asked the two men if the food was good. They said the food was great and they recommended the Chicken Bihari and the Lamb Chops. So, I went in an ordered the Chicken Bihari.
Okay, here we go: I didn't leave the restaurant until about 30 minutes later, even though it was a take out order. While I waited people kept coming in to get trays and and trays of food. I held the door open for a few of the customers as they carried out their trays. It was a pretty friendly atmosphere. Finally, 15 minutes into it, I approached the counter and asked the guy how much longer it was going to take. I was told 5 or 10 more minutes. It ended up being more like about 15 or 20 more minutes before I got my food.
The food: While I waited I also added a mango lassi and naan to the order. The chicken was incredibly flavorful and tender. Loved it! The naan was also wonderful. I wish I had ordered more. The cream-ish sauce was cool. However, I could take it or leave it. The mango lassi was larger than what you'd get from most Indian or Pakistani restaurants. However, I didn't find it as good as some of the other mango lassis I've had. Overall, I would go back and try the lamb chops like the two guys in the parking lot recommended.
Just a couple of few things: I think more people working in the restaurant needed to be wearing masks. Thinking back, I'm not sure if anyone was. That being said, everyone was pretty friendly and the customers were really nice. One customer offered me a seat, since he saw I'd been waiting there awhile. Later on, I opened the door for him several times while her carried trays of food out of the restaurant for his own party. Oh, before I forget, I found out that everything is made fresh. So, that accounts for the long wait. The naan really did taste fresh, so I buy that story. Next time I'll order ahead and recommend you do the same. If they say 15 minutes, count on 20 or 25.
