    Went there for the first time on a Friday night with my spouse. Luckily reserving on Open Table saved us waiting time. However, the seating we were offered was not good. It was a 2-person table crammed between 2 4-person tables. My chair had some food crumbs on it. No one came to serve us till about 15min since we were seated. Water was offered, no coasters. Menus were already on the table and so we narrowed down our options. Some random person showed up with a order-taking-handheld. If not for the hand-held we would have been worried with his look and demeanor. :-) We placed the order for a bread basket, kofta and lamb curry, with a pomegranate and lychee drinks. Lychee drink was not great. It tasted like a mix of lightly sweet buttermilk with some random mix of other things. My partner said the pomegranate drink was nice. Food tasted good and that was the highlight. Seating, service need lot of improvement. Prices were in-line with the location. I reluctantly paid them the 18% gratuity and came out thinking I'll never go there again, atleast not with as a party of two.
