I feel like there's potential here. My first couple visits were disappointing. They somehow managed to make a lousy mango lassi. And every kind of bread I've had here has been far too greasy.
Yet recently I tried a couple of their chicken entrees, and found that they do the flavors really, really well. Perfectly cooked, and some of the tastiest chicken I've had in a long time.
Yet the prices recently went up, and the portions are still very small. The chicken boti, for which I paid $10, was literally just a plate with about eight chunks of chicken on it. Not even any rice. It tasted great, but was somewhere between an appetizer and an entree.
Also, among the staff, only the cook tends to show any particular warmth to customers.
I know it's nice for any kind of culture to be available in small-town Iowa... but all in all, this place hovers between ""so-so"" and ""decent.""
FYI, it's BYO alcohol.
