I love nothing more than to support non corporate local restaurants, however I'm quite hung up on appearances when it comes to restuarants - I think it's a good indication of what you're in for and the quality of your food. I ordred from this restaurant at the suggestion of some friends. Had I seen the exterior/interior of the premises beforehand, I most certainly would not have ordered food from them.
Upon driving up to the restaurant I experienced a sudden feeling of moroseness, and here's why my gut feeling was right.
Fodder that I reluctantly purchased:
1) Butter Chicken - the chicken was good, however the sauce was quite yellow - more than that which I'm used to - I felt as if I were eating chicken and residual KD sauce.
2) Tandoori Chicken - it was okay, nothing to write home about.
3) Chana Masala - came with potato chunks - I must say I was impressed, I never had potato chunks before - Personally, I would have called it Channa Aloo Masala. It wasn't as saucy as I'm used to, but it was pretty good - a great dish for those who are vegetarian.
4) Basmatti Rice - The rice was good, steamed with corriander, aside from the Channa, it was probably the best part of the meal.
5) Naan - was too crispy and too burned - it was a punishment to eat it.
Would I go back? Considering that I've consumed Indian food from a variety of restuarants in the GTA, including home cooked meals by those straight out of India (from Punjab to Tamil districts) and meals cooked by myself- I'd have to say no.
Why? I can't respect a restuarant that doesn't take pride in it's appearance, there's just no excuse. I'm sorry if that sounds harsh, but that's just my opinion, take it or leave it.
i had sab ek saath, munchurian chi., chi. tikka masala, veg. maratha, mango chicken and grain of salt tandoori special and navratan korma, rice , garlic naan and paneer kulcha.
really i never been such kind of great indian food in a city like cambridge which surpasses all around indian cuisine, dont see outside just go in and tell to server and make your trip excellent.
the people are there is very welcoming and polite.
I AM IMPRESSED SOME ONE MAKING GOOD INDIAN FOOD EXACTLY SAME IN INDIA WHICH IS ONLY GRAIN OF SALT IN WATERLOO REGION.
I HAVE BEEN IN GRAIN OF SALT MANY TIMES WHICH IS VERY IMPRESSIVE .IF ANYONE WANT GOOD INDIAN FOOD GO TO GRAIN OF SALT AND TELL THE SERVER AND THEN SEE . DONT SEE OUTSIDE WHICH IS NOT GOOD .
Jackie and I have been crazy about indian food lately, but all we have had, we have cooked ourselves. It has been unbelievably good, but we had no idea how real Indian food is suposed to taste. We went for our first authentic indian meal, cooked by indian people. This restaurant is simple and perfect. The food is not just amazing indian food, it is incredible food equal or above the finest steak houses, top mexican restaurants, or most wonderful greek hidden secrets ive been too. We highly recommend this place to everyone who can appreciate proper indian food, and everyone who wants to appreciate indian food. Be sure to send your comments into Restaurantica!!!
Enjoy your Eats!
This restaurant is INCREDIBLE. I'm from Cambridge and have driven past it ten million times - its a bit scruffy looking from outside. I don't think I ever even guessed it WAS a restaurant, and certainly not a delicious Indian place.
Inside is spartan, but spotlessly clean. Somehow I bet the kitchens are the same - everything looks scrubbed within an inch of its life. If I had my way, I'd change the wall colour and the furniture but hey - you're coming here to get delicious Indian at a rock-bottom price. I think I met the owner - he seems like a lovely man. Very quiet and polite - quite the gentleman!
So, the FOOD! DELICIOUS. I've had the butter chicken, plain, garlic and butter naan, rice, chicken curry etc. The people I've gone with have had various other things I can't remember, but the total consensus was DELICIOUS!
The naan is warm and fluffy and delicious - never over-blackened. The butter chicken is to die for.... big chunks of good-quality chicken swimming in a sauce that I could literally just sit and eat with a spoon - no rice, no naan. Of course, when you DO have rice or naan its just a full on taste bud party.
The restaurant has a full bar and possibility of mixed cocktails and so on. If you check them out at lunch, they have good lunch deals. I think around $9 for butter chicken, rice, naan, dal, kheer and something else I can't remember. Service is great, food is great...lets just keep supporting them so that they can afford a new paint job and a quick brush-up of the front!
