Benares

Good food with really chic interior decor. The quantity is generous and a great value especially at lunch time. I ordered the non veg combo and it tasted like home cooking. My only feedback was the lack of welcome. I was there alone. The manager informed me that they were closing soon so I ordered right away. I sat at the front and tried to engage him in short conversation. He responded with one word answers (if that) and turned away. Warmth and communication is so important to me when having a restaurant experience. So while I did enjoy the food, this manager failed to earn my loyalty and ongoing business.

My friend recommended this place to me and it did not disappoint! The wait staff was friendly and attentive and were happy to make food suggestions. Our three guests had never had Indian Food before - this was their first experience - and they absolutely loved it. We all enjoyed the flavors of the dishes. The naan was so fresh and yummy and I was able to box it up for lunch the next day with my leftovers - so good! However, my FAVORITE part of the night was the cocktails! Affordable, unique, and delicious! I know where we are going the next time I am craving Indian!

We just loved the place. Food was amazing. We ordered vegetarian dishes and it turned out wow. We asked them to make a bit spicy and it was perfect. We will surely visit again.

Only the chicken was good. Rest of it was bland. Service needs to be improved. We had to keep reminding about the food that is not brought to us about 4 times. It was still forgotten so we just didn’t ask again. When requesting the check, we told them not to bills us for items not brought and then they gave us those packed without charge, but the mood was killed. We also had to keep looking for someone to attend us, like hey I want salt but I have stand and look around to see if anyone is there. Same for the check.

Great place, good food. Their chicken dishes are especially good, Malai kab and chicken 65. Misal pav is okay, it has chickpeas in it and is served with bread. The tipsy gulabo is great, perfect blend of lassi and alcohol. Overall,a good place to satisfy Indian food cravings.

Yummy yummy food! I'd heard a lot about this place and glad that we found time to squeeze this visit in. Reserved a table since it was Sunday but it wasn't needed as they had quite a few open tables. We were seated immediately and the order was taken super quickly. I primarily went there for the Benares Kachori and Kolhapuri Misal. The Misal was fabulous and the bread was super tasty. The Kachori was thin but yum. We got the prix fixe vegetarian platter. All the curries were flavorful and on point. Knocking off a star for the lack of ambience in terms of bad music choice and extremely loud cutlery noise while clearing tables and around the kitchen. They had a wonderful percussion artist while we were there but couldn't hear a thing as there was blaring music in the background. If you're someone who doesn't mind music choices, go here and taste that Misal Pav!!

Great place to go for a quick lunch if you’re in the neighborhood. The lunch prix fixe is beautifully catered and the selection is quite impressive. I would definitely come here again.

We ordered dahi kebab which were nothing like dahi kebab but frozen cheese nuggets given to us and tasted disgusting We ordered paneer tikka masala and ended up returning it as they gave us the wrong dish, which again tasted disgusting ? the dal makhani was so salty and nowhere near to what actual makhani is. A lot of people have given this restaurant a 4+ rating, but if i had an option if have given a negative. They are nowhere near Indian restaurant standards.
