Passage to India--ehh

Now I am new to Indian food so I only have one other place in Atlanta to compare it too. But I can say this as I venture out to eat new dishes. I bought a coupon for 13 dollars that allowed 30 dollars of food. The outside of the place is not too inviting. I am glad that the parking lot was open and all the cops were eating at the pizza place next door. Just looked like a poor area. After I arrived I was not greated by anyone. The woman at the door was working on filling a to go order for 2 people sitting at the door. Me and my guest leaned on the counter and looked over the entire menu before we were greeted.
We were not in hurry but, no one came after we were sat. The door girl had to serve us. The restaurant was not full either--I could tell that they had just had a rush before we arrived. Of course there is paper on the table because of the sauces but there was a large curry drip stain on the tablecloth underneath. The silver was rolled and it was hand pollished. I look for that! But only one fork and one knife. The foor was clean, the roof was clean. The decore was decent but pretty borring and just thrown together. They have shelves with statuets but the lighting was so damn bright. I wanted the lights down--it was not a romantic setting at all! I had to light my own candle after we were sat!
By the time we were waited on. I had ordered the entire meal and had time to go get smokes from the nearest store, smoke a cig, and came back to....yeahhhhh our beer arrived and I asked for a cold glass and accually got one. Now I am a little happier. God its freaking bright in here--lower them freaking lights for Shiva's sake! We ordered the lamb Kabobs for and app. Chicken Tikka for the main dish and split it, and Naan bread! All of the food was good--I enjoyed it. The Chicken Tikka portion was way to small and the Naan bread was not the best I have had before. It really reminded me of pizza or bread sticks from Domino's.
The total was 52 bucks; 15% gratuity added which I hate that! I would have tipped 10 percent due to the poor service and brite ass lights. But beig a bartender--if this was the perfect meal for 9 bucks I would have tipped about 25 to 40 bucks! Cus thats what a bartender does when they get free shit! With the coupon we had(Bought it on 50% off Orlando for 9 bucks and got 30 in food) it was well worth it and I enjoyed the food. This place has so much more potential. I would never eat there for full price; the coupon made it so worth it. All of the dishes run from 17 to 30 bucks--and for that price this place sucks! When I pay that at a titie bar I get BAD ASS service and a bad ass meal; oh and I get to see tities! the Shiva statue has tits but just not the same as live entertainment.
