    Everything was good. It was very busy and the service was slow for that reason, but the food and cocktails made up for that.

    Sura is a nice space. It has a cool vibe but is not trying too hard to be hip. The food was good and priced on par with some jtakeout only Indian Restaurants around. We also had leftovers. Service was very good, pleasant, and attentive but not intrusive. Dined on Valentine's Day, and they had a few good, unique cocktails. Spicy Margarita delivered as being spicy and sweet. I just wish someone would offer vegetable pakora that isn't just fried spinach. Seems like the standard anymore. I haven't had a good one ever since Minar Palace closed. Otherwise, it's a great spot.

    The brunch buffet was very good. They just need a bigger bowl of the salad.

    We took two good friends to Mod for a Friday night dinner to satisfy our craving for Indian food. We were not disappointed. From the moment we arrived until we walked out the door the staff were friendly and accommodating. One of our guests is a chef who is well acquainted with Indian cuisine and he was impressed with our dining experience. After ordering drinks we chose a variety of dishes from the menu, including the Tandoori mixed grill. Our food arrived quickly and the portions were generous. Each dish was as described and delicious. The staff was attentive and eager to satisfy a few special requests. We will return soon for a repeat performance.

    The food here is delicious and the portions are large. I have ordered from here many times and will continue to order from here. On the whole, the staff was super friendly. Of note, they do not have Coke products. There was an issue with our order- something forgotten- and one of the staff yelled at another staff member and that was upsetting. The noise level was low except for the same staff that yelled being very loud on the phone.
