Went in mid-late Dec. 2011; good experience overall. They were able to tell me what did/dind't have dairy (knew the definition of vegan), and even had some vegan roti & other bread brought out. It looks like it's a buffet-only setup, though when I went most of the dishes were dairy-free. (maybe 70-75%). Nice folks, good food. If you're not familiar with the area, the place may be a bit hard to find if you haven't checked a map/google earth photo first; not the fanicest hotel, but the restaurant is cool.
Unfortunately, feel I need to update my review, as my last visit was truly the –last- for me. After filling a tray at the buffet line, I turned around to grab one more curry, and noticed one of the owners apparently tasting one of the steam tray items with the serving spoon; she then put the same spoon back into the item. Therefore, I paid, left, and decided that was it. I can overlook the occasional minor cleanliness issue (and have), but that one was too blatant as far as I’m concerned. I’m vegan and love to dine out when I can, but that one was too much; it’s really disappointing for me, since it’s not particularly easy to find much vegan Indian food.
