"I recently had an extremely frustrating experience at this Restaurant, which I feel compelled to share. The incident highlighted a severe lack of management skills and poor communication within the establishment, resulting in a significant waste of my time and an overall disappointing take-out experience.I placed an order for pickup from uber eats, and the restaurant notified me that my order was ready for collection. Excitedly, I made my way to the restaurant, only to be met with a bewildering statement from the manager. After arrival, they informed me that my order would actually take an additional 20-25 minutes to prepare. This sudden change in the estimated waiting time left me feeling frustrated and annoyed.The primary issue here lies in the poor management and miscommunication within Paratha Junction. It is essential for a well-run establishment to have an efficient system in place that accurately communicates the status of orders to customers. In this case, not only did the restaurant fail to provide an accurate estimate initially, but they also failed to update me promptly when they realized the delay.I would give a negative rating cause of this poor management."

"I came here for Mother’s Day, and it was disappointing. Seems the restaurant had trouble keeping up with the capacity or was unprepared. The food was bland and the deserts were limited. I have been here before on a non-holiday and it was excellent! This time, they bought cake from the grocery store versus variety traditional Indian dessert-lots of paper plates, cups and utensils. It felt like the emphasis was more about turning tables than holding the quality standard I know this restaurant is capable of. For $35 per person buffet, I think they could have done much better. Staff was great but overwhelmed. I suggest NOT going on a major holiday."

"Do not go to Bombay Velvet. First the good … The space is nice though the chairs are way too low to comfortably eat. The wait staff seems attentive. However, the food is overpriced, tiny, and mediocre to poor in flavor. I spent $250 for 4 people with no dessert or alcohol and we all left hungry! One $15 appetizer consisted of the equivalent of 8 crackers standing in a bed of dry rice with 3 Tablespoons of chutney. It made me sad just looking at it. My fish was over $30 for about 3 ounces of a bland filet with about half a cup of rice. Ridiculous. Then, they tag 20% service charge automatically. We were a table of 4! It was so dark that I didn’t notice it and clearly overtipped and the server did not clarify if I wanted to double tip. No one responded when I contacted the restaurant to rectify it. My recommendation… go to Bollywood Bistro vice this pretentious, unscrupulous establishment. Unless , of course, you enjoy eating crappy, micro portions by a wait staff who could care less about their customers as long as they are getting paid."

"My friend and I had a wonderful time at Zayka! We came earlier than our reservation and were able to sit immediately! Our server was very accommodating and we enjoyed everything we ordered from wine to food! There are so many great gluten free options and everything was wonderfully fresh and well prepared. I def recommend the mulligatawny chicken soup as well as the bullet naan. The best part of our experience besides the food was jamming to the fantastic music they had playing in the dining room! We truly had the best time from start to finish and we’re so happy we chose this place! 10/10 — must try!"

"Despite still being on Opentable as a currently open, available eat in restaurant, it was not! Upon arrival we were greeted by upturned chairs on all the tables, and an owner who greeted us protection free! MASKLESS. My wife and I told him we had made a reservation on the opentable app, to which he responded, “not open for dine in, take out only, big fines”. We told him he should make note on opentable of his current position, and we left to find an establishment that was open for a sit down restaurant experience. If anyone would like to know the restaurant that was open, and we were able to walk right into with no reservation, it was Fat Rosies in Naperville . Thanks Fat Rosies, ur restaurant is awesome"

"Upon our arrival, the restaurant could not locate our reservation that had been made through OpenTable. We were informed that they had not been working with OpenTable for the past three months. Despite our surprise, we were told that we were only the second customers that day who had made a reservation through OpenTable. We were informed that we would have to wait 45 minutes. We decided to wait and proceeded to have our meal. Can someone clarify who is correct in this situation - OpenTable or Clay Pit?"

"Hello readers. As Indian I always search for Indian cuisine where I go and recently I moved to Kalamazoo and found this restaurant. If you're looking for Halal Chicken, that's the right place. Let's go to our dishes, believe me, I have tried and half the dishes made available/included in their menu, but have no pictures of all. The rate per court after my visits. P.s they ask for ur spice level so my is also medium spice level or if rate of 10 that it 8 1) veg samosa (3.5/5) it is good and okish if you have a samosa fan 2) Veg hakka noodles (3.8/5) It's one of those dishes I like from here. U will get the feeling of eating the same as when you eat in India. 3) Bombay Chicken biryani (4.2/5) Sharkling from Mumbai I loved this because it is exactly the same thing I have in my hometown except to put the egg. It is delicious and the chicken pieces are also fresh and delicate, they have added large masalas for this special dish. 4) Fire masala dosa (4.5/5) If you love too much spicy, this is suitable for you. Very sharp and brilliant. This dish is only for spicy food lovers. 5) Chole bhature (5/5) (highly recommended) if you love this dish, it is the best here. Not an **** feature fan, but it feels like you're eating in old Gully from Chandni-Chowk from delhi 6) Dal makhani (3.5/5) Again one of the best dishes from the main course for which you can choose. It is really delicious and with garlic naan it is simply scrumbling. 7) Hariyali Chicken (4/5) if you have a white meat chicken person, that is then best. One of the most important courses I would recommend to others. 8) Chicken chettinadu (5/5) before I came here, I had not tasted this dish and a very recommended one from my side. Simply brilliant and delicious in taste. One day I also came to the buffet and all the items were tasteful and buffet is available only on weekends The service was fast and the staff is friendly. Overall, it is good and has to visit here. Bones"

"Can't beat a great buffet, 2 soft drinks and tip for $30. I went all vegetarian on this one and everything was delicious. More fresh vegetables for the salad section would be a welcomed addition. There are several Indian uses for cucumber (which they had there) to make appetizing salads. A little pickling and curry and they would make that part of the buffet equally as appetizing and the rest. BTW, dessert was included with the Buffet, but I did not over indulge. Overall really good, especially for the price and variety of dishes. J,"

"I had been turned off by a few people because I LOVE prime rib. I had just heard great things about the restaurant. Unfortunately the whole experience was disappointing for us. We had reserved at the open table and requested a stand. When we got there the hostess did not confirm our reservation when we told her we booked them online and still got us to a table. She was our waitress and was pretty good. The drinks were well made but small for the price. We ordered the prime rib. I got the girls cut and my husband got the kings cut which is about a $ 20 price difference. When they came out, they were exactly the smaller portion I ordered in length and thickness. We ordered medium seldom (which it turned out to be), but it had no taste and was extremely tough. If there's one thing I love almost as much as prime rib, it's ranch dressing. It was chunky and tasted terrible. (and no, it wasn't blue cheese) To get our USD 100 bill at the end of our meal, we were both utterly disappointed with the entire meal. The quality did not reflect the cost."

"The old man in front was very grumpy and not friendly, Inside was too hot, toilet was super dirty, they misspelled Malbec wine with “Malbac”, I told this grumpy man about misspelling and he seemed very angry about that saying that are working on it, such a shame. Food were ok by the way."

"Our family enjoyed the outdoor seating and the waiters did a great job of quickly pushing other tables in when it was raining out of the blue. We were under an umbrella and a big tree and didn't have to move and the rain stopped quickly. Our teenage kids weren't in many nice restaurants and they loved the creative starters, especially the homemade croutons on the Caesar salad, delicious! We all had very good meals and were too full for dessert, which is unfortunate because I have eaten the chocolate bread pudding with baileys before and it is divine! There are so many tasty options and we enjoyed the scallops as well as the duck, key lime chicken and the flank. You can't go wrong!"

"This was my first experience with authentic Indian cuisine, and it was fantastic! I'm now a big fan and will definitely seek it out again in the future. We were a group of 16, and the staff managed our party effortlessly, serving our food promptly and checking in on us regularly. Those in our group who were more familiar with Indian food were very impressed and are eager to return to this restaurant. I highly recommend it!"

"Not sure what Chicken tikka masala everyone else orders but there is no way it is a 5 star dish.Sauce is no creamy, the Chicken is just terrible. Overcooked and we even got a join in our piece. Plus all of the pieces are rubbery and hard which means the meat is just disgusting.I struggle to even give it one star, so gross and i was not wanting to pay for such terrible food.Bombay house at Jordan landing is much better and actually tastes amazing.Never and I repeat never come here. Old and ran down building and the food is so gross."

"On a whim, I decided to grab some takeout and chose this Indian restaurant since it was the closest option. Overall, I had a great experience! The restaurant may be small, but it has a lovely atmosphere and was very clean and tidy. The owner was incredibly gracious and welcoming. The prices were similar to other Indian restaurants I've visited. I ordered onion kulcha and paneer makhani, and both were delicious. The spice level is a bit hotter than what I'm used to, so be mindful of that. However, the flavors were fantastic, and the portions were generous. While I've had better onion kulcha (this one was a bit thinner than I prefer), it was still quite tasty. Their vegetarian menu is more extensive than many other Indian places I've been to, which already offer a good variety, so I’m definitely planning to return to try out some of the other dishes that I can’t find elsewhere. Overall, it was well worth the drive!"

"I love going to Indian restaurants when they label the vegan items! This place does just that!!! Thank you!!! In the menu introduction there is devoted language to vegetarian food- yes! So, though not a veg place, if I want vegan Indian food in Bethesda I will come here. As for the people and the decor- lovely attentive people. The chef came to chat with me a couple times to see if I had questions or concerns and how the food tasted. Nice touch Chef Anil! All my vegan concerns were addressed, which is more than I can actually say for some other area vegetarian establishments that make me feel out of place! It's decor is new and fresh, not heavy or antiquated. While here, I felt that everything was made freshly. Nothing was cold or old in flavor. The mulligatawny soup was a piping hot delicious blended lentil soup that hit the spot to set the tone for the meal. Pakora are usually only mediocre at best, but these were like crispy deep fried battered spinach popcorn! Try it! The samosas had a hearty filling with more depth than most. The curries are good, but they always feel heavy- here though, they do not over salt like some other places. The one thing that didn't agree with my palate was the dosa. I liked that they are all vegan, but I think the one I picked maybe was not the right one, and, well, the dosa part was a bit bland. I also wish there was a vegan spinach entree on the menu, but I believe if I asked, the chef would've made it vegan!!! Overall, as an Indian restaurant with vegan options, it's a great choice. You can be confident that what you order will be vegan. Because it had meat, 4 cow max, but I can't say they're perfect- yet. As a new restaurant, with time, I may return and love the dosas and ask for spinach! Then maybe 4 cows will be met!"

"As you can see from the photos, this restaurant has a warm and welcoming atmosphere. I had reserved a seat by the fireplace which was so cozy on a damp, cold, New England day. There is a large selection of food and drinks to choose from. I got theThali feast which consisted of a kale and cucumber salad, garlic naan, rice and two sauces. One was sweet and the other was tomato based. It comes with three sides so I ordered chicken, steak and lamb kabobs. I found it a little difficult to understandmy server but she got the job done and was very friendly. This is my second visit to this restaurant and I will definitely comeback again to sample more of the menu."

"This restaurant features an entirely vegetarian dosa menu. A helpful waitress guided me in selecting vegan dishes, including idly, medhu vada, samosas, poori (fried bread with potato curry), gobi manchurian, and my favorite—a spring dosa filled with carrots, cabbage, and chili! I also savored the spicy mysore dosa during my visit. On my most recent trip, I sampled their spicy tomato, ginger, coconut, and mint/coriander chutneys, all of which are vegan (but it's always a good idea to double-check). They offer pots of sambar, a fantastic soup, and they encourage diners to bring their own utensils, napkins, and water from the bar."

"This restaurant is truly exceptional, with food that delights every single taste bud. I hosted my sister's graduation party here, and not a single guest had a complaint. The food exceeded all expectations, and the customer service was absolutely remarkable. Whether you're planning a party or just looking for a place to enjoy lunch or dinner, you won't be disappointed. The management maintained excellent communication with us throughout the process. I visited several restaurants before choosing this one for our event, and reflecting on that decision, I can confidently say it was the best choice I've ever made for both the quality and the value."

"Service was super slow. We waited 45 minutes after we finished eating for a check and containers. Ask 6 times for togo containers. Food isnt tradtional indian flavor. Most had a trini accent, dont know if the cooks are from trini. Everything was salty. We order chili fish.. salty and ok, lamb chops and tandoori chicken.. no flavor of tandoor, salty and tasted like shan mix for seasoning, not good. Lamb biriyani was ok, chicken tikka masala had a different flavor again ok sag paneer was ok. The best thing was the naan, light and fluffy. Place was busy which maid me wonder why the food wasnt that good but maybe everyone else is used to this flavor. Service was the worst."
