    We have dined here more than once and have never been disappointed. We are particularly partial to the "chef's special", a selection of appetizers and small dishes. There is a vegetarian and and meat-eater's version. Both are outstanding. The other interesting thing about Passage of India is the variety of Indian cuisines represented on the expansive menu. There is something for everyone and lots to explore. All is well prepared and nicely presented. Staff is friendly and informative. Highly recommended

    I will definitely be going back again. The food was delicious. We ordered the lobster and crab scampi, crab cakes, lamb chops, mac ‘n cheese, kale caesar salad, and the corn bread (waiter recommendation). Everything… EVERYTHING… was delicious. Portion sizes were reasonable. The salad and the mac and cheese are shareable. Our waiter was on his A game and we didn’t want for anything. He was on too of it and knew the menu very well. The drinks were excellent. Can’t say enough how much I enjoyed this first time experience.

    We had a delightful lunch. The wait staff rushed freshly baked bread to our table. The limoncello cake was superb. The view out the window was lovely. The gnocchi was delicious with a very generous portion and flavorful seasonings. The table was ready when we arrived a little early. The wine selection was good.

    In nicer weather, we like to sit on the veranda. In the colder months, we still like to be near the windows in.the rear.
