Didn't happen tonight. We arrived promptly for our 6:30pm reservation and were offered our choice of the few available tables. We chose one in the corner by the window, which we've sat at previously.
Charles introduced himself as our server. He took our order, packed up leftovers and took the bill after our meal. Otherwise he wasn't really present. Jay had to motion him over for the undercooked garlic naan, which was replaced with regular naan.
Although the meal was tasty, the service was lacking, and Jay was disappointed and tried to keep Ken from voicing his displeasure; although she did complain to the manager after the meal.
Appetizers:
Drums of Heaven - Battered chicken wings with garlic, tomato, chili and scallions.
Shrimp Koliwada - battered shrimp with sweet and spicy chili aloe
Entrees:
Lobster Tail Macher Malai (January Special) - poppy seeds, tomato, coconut cream, ginger, green chili, tamarind rice. Jay ordered spicy and it was quite tasty.
Ken order the Pork Vindaloo - tender boneless pork, pearl onions, garlic, red wine vinegar, jaggery, fingerling potatoes. He took some home since he couldn't finish it all.
Note: We weren't charged for the half-cooked naan, but Jay didn't find that out until after she was home.
This wasn't quite the special night for which Jay hoped. We actually took home most of the red, which is rare for us.
Jay is not inclined to visit again for dinner; instead, she may revisit with Karin and George for lunch. Normally, two hours are blocked for dinner at BYOBs, so we were surprised at how rushed we felt.
Wines enjoyed:
