I’d
like
to
start
by
saying
I
am
a
person
of
color
from
Memphis.
The
Indian
cuisine
in
my
hometown
had
my
expectations
HIGH
for
Sitar,
not
to
mention
the
2,000+
reviews
praising
this
restaurant.
I
know
what
good
Indian
food
taste
like.
This
was
not
it.
I
introduced
my
boyfriend
to
Indian
food
with
this
restaurant
and
I
wanted
so
badly
to
be
able
to
come
here
and
leave
a
5
star
review
about
our
experience,
but
that
was
not
the
case.
Food
was
bland,
NO
SPICE,
and
some
of
it
was
dry.
It
seems
as
if
they
intended
to
tone
down
Indian
food
to
be
more
palatable
for
the
locals/demographic
of
Knoxville.
The
service:
Service
was
awesome!
I
called
right
on
the
dot
when
they
opened
for
the
evening
and
they
took
my
order.
Very
kind
and
welcoming
when
we
picked
up
our
food!!
If
we
dined-in,
I’m
sure
the
waiter
would
be
great
:)
The
food:
Cost
was
about
$60
for
everything.
We
ordered
a
lot
and
our
order
was
perfectly
right
and
even
partially
labeled.
I
appreciate
the
organization
and
them
getting
the
order
correct!!
However,
the
food
was
near-tasteless
and
lacked
the
spice/herb
level
that
we
were
expecting.
If
you
want
further
detail
on
what
we
ordered
see
below.
Chicken
pakora:
this
tasted
great!!
Since
it
was
takeout,
they
should
have
poked
holes
in
the
styrofoam
to
avoid
the
steam
making
it
soggy.
Nothing
a
quick
broil
in
the
oven
couldn’t
fix
though.
meat
samosas:
this
taste
good
but
it
was
DRY
DRY
DRY.
Even
after
dipping
them
in
various
sauces,
nothing
could
save
the
dryness.
It
was
like
eating
fried
cotton.
garlic
naan:
this
was
good,
a
tad
soggy
and
kinda
too
thick.
And
you
only
get
ONE
naan
for
that
~$4
-
5
price.
puri
bread:
honestly
we
googled
this
and
wanted
to
try
it.
It
looks
like
a
crunchy
biscuit
on
Google
but
we
received
a
thinner,
dry,
chewy
version
of
naan…
wouldn’t
have
ordered
that
if
we
knew
what
it
was
lamb
Rogan
Josh:
this
sauce
with
the
lamb
was
good.
However,
i
ordered
the
spiciest
level
and
it
was
TASTELESS.
No
spice
or
heat
at
all.
I
KNOW
they
don’t
cook
like
that
at
home.
Boti
kebab:
good,
but
lamb
seemed
over
cooked.
It
was
essentially
presented
as
lamb
with
red
sauce
over
a
bed
of
onions
and
green
bell
pepper.
Also
not
much
flavor.
