Indian food in Columbus tends to be bland and not nearly spicy enough, Venky's corrects both of these. The food takes a few more minutes to get out to you because it's completely fresh, including the naan and it's spicy enough to make me happy, but the mild dishes are palatable for all of my 'non-initiated' friends. The quality of the ingredients, including the paneer, is outstanding. There used to be issues with service, but that person is now gone and everyone, even the owner, is incredibly friendly. Recent renovations have also improved the atmosphere. So with good decor, service, and food, Venky's is now knocking it out of the park!
