    Excellent authentic Indian with attentive service. We ordered several entrees and shared among our group. The Chicken Tikka Masala and Chicken & Spinach were favorites of everyone in our group. The Tikka Masala sauce is phenomenal - be sure to order Naan to soak up every last drop of it!

    They play clubby music in the hookah bar next door, which is audible while in the restaurant. The food lacked flavor--very bland Service was good

    Great food! There are even a few dishes I've never tried. They don't have a wine and beer list yet, be aware. But they can serve by-the-glass. No full bar yet. The air-conditioning could be improved. It was kind of close and sticky. And the music selection became unpleasant. If they would keep to Indian music it would be much better. Akbar means great. They're not great in all ways yet.

    A very mediocre experience. Maybe with time they'll hone their menu. As of now, there are too many other Indian options in the vicinity, to make this worthwhile. Great price, but I'd rather pay the extra $2 and go elsewhere. I am willing to give this place another shot in a couple of months - maybe they'll have improved by then.
