What People Are Saying About India Oven

In Short
Located one block west of the Strip in the Enchanted Village shopping center, India Oven looks plain from the outside. But inside diners are greeted with sparkling white walls and minimalist decor. The menu is typical Indian fare, with curries and tandoori meats dominating, along with lots of vegetarian selections. Standouts include chicken korma, vegetable korma and the spicy eggplant dish, each with dense flavors and large portion sizes.

You must be kidding. Value?? $4.50 for a garlic naan! $3 for an ordinary naan (sorry, 5 cents less than $3). A simple Daal (lentils) for $13! And they do not even provide complementary rice with the entrees, that go as high as $25 for lamp chop masala (simply "mince meat" or "kheema" in most places)! And what is with those hostile signs so typical of some Indian businesses --- "We reserve the right to refuse Service to Anyone" "No shirt, no shoes, no Service." That is always your right on your property, there is no need to rub that in. It is rude. And this new sign that I saw there: "Any one over 5 years old will be charged full price for buffet." Since when has a 5 year old become an adult? Have some kindness/courtesy to kids at least --- their stomachs are too small for you to charge $20 for what they put into it typically. Greedy businessmen.

We waited 40 minutes to be seated --- and that is actually a good sign that the place is popular. We ordered food and waited with keen anticipation. The Paneer Pakoras arrived --- 5-6 pieces in all. OK. My wife and I grabbed a piece each and put our teeth into it. It was well-spiced and warm outside --- but inside it was hard and stone-cold. They clearly prepare their food ages ago, even pakoras (appetizers!), store it in the freezer and reheat it on being ordered by a guest. In my case, they had obviously just dropped these from the freezer into hot oil (not even a microwave) and since it was a busy evening, they pulled it out too quickly and the cat was out of the bag. The culminating piece of ridicule was they took it away and brought back a plate of THREE, not SIX pieces (re-re-heated). They were clearly telling us, that we had somehow either swallowed or regurgitated two pieces and broken one, so they only got back three reusable (reheatable) pieces, so that is what they just reheated a little more and brought them right back. In my case, they clearly re-reheated the Paneer Pakoras from our plates in a big bath of hot oil --- which is used to deep fry a whole lot of stuff the same evening. Total sharing experience I guess.

We just got back from this place and are truly shocked. We have eaten here years ago and the food was good. Today we waited 40 minutes to be seated --- and that is actually a good sign that the place is popular. We ordered food and waited with keen anticipation. The Paneer Pakoras arrived --- 6 pieces in all. OK. My wife and I grabbed a piece each and put our teeth into it. It was well-spiced and warm outside --- but inside it was hard and stone-cold. It didn't take Einstein to figure out that they prepare their food ages ago, even pakoras (appetizers), store it in the freezer and reheat it on being ordered by a guest. In my case, they had obviously just dropped these from the freezer into hot oil (not even a microwave) and since it was a busy evening, they pulled it out too quickly and the cat was out of the bag. We called the owner and he started expressing total surprise. So I broke another piece and put his finger on the inside paneer, and then he stopped arguing -- it really was hard and stone cold. Still we were being tolerant. But the culminating piece of ridicule was they took it away and brought back a plate of THREE, not SIX pieces. They were clearly telling us, that we had somehow either swallowed or spit out two pieces and broken one, so they only got back three reusable (reheatable) pieces, so that is what they just reheated a little more and brought them right back. Not a trace of shame or pride. We walked out, and still not a word of sorry from either of the two owners, who were pretending they hadn't noticed (I was loud believe me, even walked up to the old m,an and toild him, to no avail). They really couldn't care less, BECAUSE they had a line of eager people waiting to be served reheated food. WSo why bother about a few bad eggs (like me) who demand normal service and courtesy? I will never go back there, never recommend a friend (just my old Bo
