Avi Flamholz: Cilantro sauce technology and 4am closing win Roti Roll a special place in my heart. Unda aloo masala (potato, egg, peas) or chana masala (chickpea, always a 'special').
Allen M: Phenomenal, just phenomenal. The Unda Aloo Masala, Chicken Malai, and Lamb Boti are all great.
Igor Lenivtsev: Go for aloo masala frankie - it's #vegan and #spicy

Neha Srivastava: The mysore masala dosa is to die for !! (Beware its spicy though)
Deb F: The rating does not do this place justice. It is the actual best. Get the mysore onion masala dosa. I've been to the one in Delhi to and its just as delicious.
Sameepa Shetty: Rava masala dosa, south Indian thali, uthappam are all great here. Fast service. Authentic south Indian food. Serve wine.

Chelsea Balkan: #FabuLIST #DubiDO This may be my fav Indian restaurant. Decor is upscale and modern. Food is delicious. Try the chatpati gobhi lehsuni, gosht lamb chops, nawabi murgh tikka, and paneer tikka masala
Arthur Esque: Delish. Try anything with okra. So good. Not so much bang for the buck, but really, really delicious.
Lalita Salgaokar: Fantastic Kakkori Kebabs.

Raghavan Muthuregunathan: Paneer tikka masala is heaven . All chicken dishes can be replaced with Paneer for vegan guests
William H: One of the better Indian joints in the neighborhood, though it can run on the pricey side. Tikka masala is solid, as are the mango lassis. Spinach soup is better than you'd expect.
Vee Bee: There's lots of vegetarian options on the wkd lunch buffets. It's always delicious. I've now also enjoyed dinner off the menu. Vegetarian jalfreezi was excellent! It's mild though, so add some heat.
Leah Zelazny Poswolsky: Food is great -- highly recommend the vegetable samosas with the chutney,chicken tikka masala and malai kofta.. Good service too.
Foodspotting: Try the Chutney Idli
Marisa Franco: Pleasantly surprised by sapphire! The wait staff was incredibly attentive and the food was delicious. Make sure to get the lamb vindaloo. You don't need a knife, nuff' said.
