Description

Perched in the Clarion Hotel with sweeping Lake Erie and Dunkirk Marina views, this casual spot serves standout Indian dishes—especially a memorable chicken korma—alongside burgers, steaks and popular wings at fair prices. Strengths include a holiday buffet, generous condiments and scenic sunset dining; weaknesses are inconsistent service, slow checks, loud birds/music, outdated decor and cramped seating. Presentation can be dive-bar casual and pizza is a miss. Best for hotel guests, families and casual sunset dinners rather than quiet, upscale occasions.

Great Indian food! We had a vegetarian dinner and it was fresh, well seasoned and very tasty.

The butter chicken, yellow fried rice, and garlic naan were all amazing! Wait staff was lacking but could tell the poor girl was doing her best. Need to hire more servers.

This review is based on the chicken korma, which is home made, and out of this world delicious. Ive had korma from all over buffalo and this korma is the best Ive had. India Gate has amazing korma but this korma is like a disco in your mouth. the flavor profile will knock your socks off off. the chicken was cooked perfectly, so tender....and the sauce was thick, rich, and creamy and chock full of plump raisins, perfectly tender and soft cashews, scallions, and most importantly- fresh cardamom pods. I will get this every time I am in the area. absolutely addicting. The manager Renae also provides great customer service!

Then our waiter approached us with a noticeable attitude. I understand that serving can be tough, but a smile can go a long way in creating a positive dining experience and earning good tips. When I asked her about the best item on the menu, her response was confusing. After she clarified that there were two menus—Indian and American—I asked her where I could find the Indian menu. Instead of providing helpful information, she only pointed out two items from the same menu, which did nothing to enhance our experience and only aggravated her already poor attitude. We decided to place our orders; she recommended the hamburger and the beef on weck, so I went with the hamburger while my partner opted for chicken tenders with sweet Asian chili. But that wasn’t all—THE BIRDS WERE EXTREMELY LOUD. We could barely hear each other over the noise of the birds and music. Speaking of ambience, the decor was outdated and worn. The neon sign was broken, and there were Christmas lights still hanging outside. The seating was uncomfortable, especially for anyone over the age of ten, which just compounded our frustration. When our food arrived, it was passable but nothing impressive. I wish I had taken pictures because the presentation was lackluster, resembling that of a dive bar—not what you'd expect from a supposed upscale restaurant. Finally, when it was time to leave, I asked for the check, which took ten minutes to arrive, and she LITERALLY threw it on the table. Talk about rude and unacceptable. I left a 15% tip because I try to be nice, but she was lucky I didn't leave only 8%. In summary, I would not recommend dining here unless you’re okay with subpar service and mediocre food.

We had a wonderful experience with the Friday fish dinner. The broiled fish was outstanding, and the portion size was generous. The service was quick and friendly. We also appreciated how clean the restaurant was, which is important to us these days. We will definitely be back!
