"We were a group of 4 and dined here after a wonderful but tiring tour of the Biltmore estate after flying in from Seattle. The experience was quite disappointing. We did go at 845 pm on a Wednesday(place closes at 930) so tried to place all our orders at one go. We started of the the Chai which was lukewarm and not very flavorful. We also tried a couple cocktails which were quite watered down. Now coming to the food, we ordered Chicken Kathi Roll bland no salt, but meat was good. Paneer Kathi Roll did not taste since we ordered this without Egg but they sent it with egg. Sloppy Jai(Keema Pav) tasted nice but was wayy to greasy. The grease from the Keema dripped into the bottom bun which soaked it up making it impossible to eat due to how heavy it was. SPDP(dahi puri) this was quite nice and tasted fresh. Aloo Tikki chaat quite good but lacked sweetness that’s needed in this chat. Mix vegetable Uttapam served with Sambar and chutney, taste was nice but was undercooked in the middle. Also they staff was clearing trash while customers are having dinner right from the front desk(2 large trash bags were kept there for a bit before taken out the front door). Overall, this was a very disappointing experience considering the praise we had heard about this place. Maybe they had a bad day or it was closing time. The staff was quite friendly and service was reasonable. But the positives were just not enough for us to come again or recommend this to anyone else."
