A tiny looking place with trays of Indian food in the windowed counter. It actually has a dim florescent lit dining room in the back. I asked what the best things to get for the 1 meat, 1 vegetable platter $8. The guy suggested the Chicken Kofta Meatballs and the Aloo Palak (spinach and potatoes) which I ordered. He scooped the stuff and reheated it in the convection microwave, just like at Kasturi. Then another white guy came in and asked for suggestions too. I was curious if he would say the same items he told me …he did. Well played.
I don’t know about the ground up chicken meatballs, but did like the Aloo Palak. All pretty spicy. Mama mia, that’s a spicy meatball!

Great concise review.
I’ve eaten there in the past and recently as well.
I love their food, and authentic atmosphere including the foreign news channel playing while I enjoyed my lunch
