Indian Grill

My first visit to this Township 5 restaurant was an enjoyable one. I had for years frequented India House in Liverpool and its downtown predecessor, Taste of India. Unfortunately, Indian House recently closed their doors and we are now looking for another restaurant where we can enjoy our favorite Indian dishes. Although the food here is very good, two items fell short of my expectations, the poori bread and the pistachio kulfi ice cream. From the internet, it appears that the garlic naan is made on site and it receives positive reviews. Next time. As a nice touch, the restaurant provided a basket of papadum with three sauces. For an appetizer, my wife and I decided to split an order of aloo gobi masala. This, combined with our main courses of lamb tikka masala and lamb rogan josh comprised a very enjoyable meal, and we had leftovers to take home. The service was outstanding. We will return. UPDATE-1: On our second visit, I had the lamb tikka masala again, but this time I requested medium-hot masala sauce, and ordered it with garlic naan. An excellent meal. My wife tried something new. The special chicken cheese masala was outstanding. UPDATE-2: I ordered an appetizer of fried peppers. The menu warned that the dish was hot. What they really meant was that the dish was very, very, very hot. The peppers were enclosed by a delicious crunchy well-seasoned coating which initially covered the heat. However, by the time I finished one of the two peppers, I was experiencing a four-alarm fire. I immediately ordered a Kingfisher beer and had some of the naan bread we had ordered. Once the heat came under control, I added small bites of the coated peppers to my masala sauce as I ate my main dish. My wife ordered the chicken saag and shared some of it with me. We both loved it.

Excellent flavor and texture authentic homemade cuisine and fresh juice. Attentive, very friendly service. Classy atmosphere, and very reasonably priced. And as one would tend to expect at an Indian restaurant, many vegetarian options in both appetizers and entrees. Indian Grill will be a staple go to place for us from now on!

Had a very nice meal at the Indian Grill. They have a good size menu with typical favorites and enough variety to get you outside your comfort zone. Everything was very good, it was mostly empty on the Wednesday evening so everything was really lightning fast. We had the lamb biryani, chicken tikka masala, the veg bullets and cheese pakara. All enjoyable, all well flavored, nothing mind blowing but would absolutely go back to try different dishes. We also felt it was very reasonably priced so that was an added bonus. No complaints here. Enjoy!!

My wife and I tried this for this first time last night. The food was good but maybe a little more bland than we're used to. I got the chicken madras and she got the chana chaat. Both were good. The rice was a little dry (precooked?). The crispy bread stuff they put on the table as a welcome is really good. Sauces were okay too. My wife loved the onion chutney. The samosa's were average. A meat option for samosa's might be a welcome addition to the menu. The menu, btw, has a lot of options. The restaurant looked clean and tidy. One way I decide if a place is truly clean and they really do keep things clean behind the scenes is I look at the ceiling. If light fixtures, duct work, vents, curtain rods, etc are gross or caked with cobwebs or greasy dust, you can bet money that the kitchen and food storage is also not clean. The light fixtures and vents here were spotless. However, and this is why I deducted a star, the bathroom was filthy. The fixtures, door, and handle had some kind of white slime on them. It looked like a painter was trying to get away from a serial killer in there. The place was empty except for a table of 4 when we got there around 6:30PM on a Thursday. No staff at the front desk and we had to wait a few minutes for staff to come out from the back and see us. That was a little bit awkward but not a big deal. It was pretty chilly in there and my wife kept her coat on through the meal. Service was okay. The server was friendly enough. Food came out in a reasonable time frame and the server followed up with us numerous times. One note I hope they read is that, with real linen tablecloths and napkins (which is really nice btw), the expectation of the customer might be that staff is dressed more as servers. Our sever was dressed casually and looked like a customer. Not a huge deal but sprucing up, if even with just a cheap black apron, might be a super easy way to set it apart from mediocre places. Just a thought. Prices are reasonable.
