"First and foremost this is not a safe space for LGBTQIA+ or queer people. I went in for a job interview today after driving for 30 mins. Someone else was scheduled at the same time I was asked to come, so I opened the door for the manager and the other candidate and patiently waited and was never seen. After I decided to leave after the humiliation of not being acknowledged, I thought I might as well order a coffee so my time was not complete wasted. After ordering I waited several minutes and then saw a beverage had been placed on the counter. I asked the girl who took my order if it was my beverage and she proceeded to ask 3 other people who the beverage was for. I couldn’t get a solid clear answer on whether it was so I just took a chance and assumed it was. Long story short, you can slap rainbows on your business but ignoring and mistreating queer people does not make you an ally and it sure as heck doesn’t make you a professional and ethical business. I’m sure they will make some excuse as to why they couldn’t bother even giving me the time of day but actions speak louder than words. Don’t give your money to people who won’t even acknowledge the personhood of queer folx. To Rachel the manager I’m glad you ignored me and wouldn’t give me the time of day because I would never work for someone who would cause harm to another queer person. It shows the type of person you are and it’s disgusting. I hope you sit with that shame and let it consume you until you’re able to reflect on your actions and grow. I wish you healing but I do not wish you peace."

"The restaurant offers delicious food at an affordable price in a wonderful location with shaded areas. Guests can enjoy walking around in Lilian's garden, which is filled with plants and pollinators, all while charging their car. It appears that they have live music entertainment as well. The service, food quality, and atmosphere all received top ratings. Dine-in meals for lunch are priced at $10-20 per person."

"Came for an anniversary dinner this past Saturday and was crammed in to a small table between two large groups, one with a crying baby and several young kids who couldn?t stay in their seats and were bumping into our already wobbly table. It?s a small venue and absolutely no one should have ever been seated there. The food was lukewarm. You couldn?t pay me to come back and made me look like a jabroni."

"We decided to check out Kamana during a visit to Clinton Premium Outlets. While making a reservation was easy, it didn’t seem necessary as the restaurant wasn’t particularly busy at the time. The establishment feels like a former residence retrofitted into a restaurant, with the original entrance door still intact, giving the impression of walking into someone’s home. Parking is available at the back, but the narrow driveway and entrance can be a bit confusing—you might find yourself accidentally heading toward the kitchen instead of the main entrance. Inside, the ambiance is pleasant, with décor that blends well with Indian culture. The menu, with its metal cover and embossed restaurant name, is unique, though it’s a bit heavy and clunky to handle. We ordered Veg Momos, Chicken Lasuni, Paneer Chilli with Garlic Naan, Tamarind Margarita, and Mango Lassi. The food was good overall. The momos were particularly well-made, while the Paneer Chilli, though slightly dry, still tasted good. The Chicken Lasuni could have used a bit more garlic, and the chicken pieces might have been easier to eat if they were smaller, but they were well-cooked. The Garlic Naan was warm, fluffy, and nicely garnished. Portions were on the smaller side for the price but sufficient for two to share. The Mango Lassi was standard fare—good but nothing extraordinary. The Tamarind Margarita was also good, with a hint of tamarind, though the slender glass it was served in was an unusual choice and could have benefited from a bit more salt on the rim. Service was quick, and the staff were friendly and kind. However, when we asked for cocktail recommendations, the staff couldn’t provide specific suggestions, leaving us to choose the Indian fusion margarita, which, while interesting, could have been recommended or suggested with confidence. Overall, Kamana is definitely worth a visit, especially if you’re in the area."

"I had a frustrating experience at this restaurant today. I tried to order online but ended up having to call instead. The total price online was $27, but when my friend picked up the food, it was $48. There was no reason for such a large price difference. Instead of paying around $13 each, we had to pay $25 each for just two curry dishes, tea, and naan. The fact that curry was priced at $18 each was outrageous. I was shocked by the discrepancy in prices. The curry was also not very good, it was bland. I will not be returning to this restaurant. If there is a discrepancy in prices, the restaurant should make customers aware or update their online prices. This type of shady business practice is unacceptable. It seems that they care more about making money than providing good customer service."
