The food is amazing and yum. I loved the Tandoori Phool. However, this time I did not have a pleasant experience with the staff. The lady who greeted us at the top was great and was courteous. Later there was a man who came in and started commenting on how long we were there; made small talk and joked about that they have a vacancy to wash dishes etc. If we are paying for the food and service, I don’t think the waiter had any rights to comment on how long we choose to spend there or make such remarks/jokes. Highly unprofessional. We always come to Chatora and take out as well. We had a lot of food and wine but this experience will make me rethink my visit.

The service is as great as the food is. Kind, refined, unobstrusive care for the customers, and an amazing menu of fine indian food from many regions, with the occasional twist of west meets east in the dishes. A wonderful find.
