Butter chicken meal contained excessive rice and minimal chicken.

Kevin I spoke to my team - we went above and beyond to meet your request and we shared with you that we don’t mix stuff we give curry and rice separately anyways my team met your ask and we gave a whole curry and rice with the chicken. You are sharing a false information here and you were beyond drunk too when you came in here .. so maybe your judgement is now questionable- I would be glad to have folks like you go somewhere else than waste our time .. some clown you are

Food was cold and the store manager was rude.

Business reply on Google

We are sorry to hear about your recent experience. I've spoken with my staff and found that your order was ready at 7:14 PM for pickup, which may explain why it wasn't warm when you picked it up at 8 PM. Additionally, the staff member you mentioned was from the back of the house. We apologize for their demeanor and will address this with our team to ensure that all staff interacting with customers provide a welcoming and attentive experience.We value your feedback and hope you'll consider giving us another chance to serve you better.

Nicole thanks for your feedback and sorry for your experience with regards to the quantity - the butter chicken is always going to be in strips here and usually the quantity more than suffice for 1 person infact I find it hard sometimes to eat all of it at one go. I am happy to understand more on the issue please come on over and let us know how we can serve you better

Customer was overcharged for items not ordered.

Jennifer I spoke with my staff and we did not have any incident like this and I also checked all my receipts to find / reimburse you . I believe this happened at another establishment which has a name very similar to us . My dharma is to do the right thing and I would refund you in full and offer your next meal on the house if my staff erred . I request you to reconsider your review if there been an error . Look forward to speaking with you could you email me at [email protected] and I would be happy to connect with you and resolve this
