Editorial Review for Indus Valley – by Paul Adams

In Short
The territory of the Indus Valley--one of the primordial cradles of humanity--spans India and part of the Middle East, as does the menu at this upper Upper West Side spot. There are plenty of familiar dishes: tandoori meat and fish, and curries aplenty. The restaurant's exalted position as one of the only Indian restaurants in the neighborhood has resulted in a brisk business.

Food was just OK, the service was insanely bad! I didn't get the correct order for over 90 minutes. I ordered for pickup and was told the order would be ready in 15 minutes. I arrived 20 minutes later and still waited 10 minutes. When I got home, I discvered I had received the wrong entree. I called at 7:49 and was told the oder would go out in 5 minutes. Over 30 minutes later, I finally received my food. I received no apology and no offer to comp any part of my meal. The food here is better tahn most Inida food above 96th St. but not nearly as good as Indian food in Little India or on E. 5th.

Pros: Food is passable

Cons: Service is abominable

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Absolutely INCREDIBLE. Its up on 100 ST, but well worth the commute. My friends and I are ADDICTED. The first time we walked in we were a little intimidated as it has the atmosphere of a fine dining restaurant. But we are always so welled received, even in shorts and tennies! The service is impeccable. Smiles everywhere when you enter, thank you's from everyone when you leave. There is not even a hint of pretensiousness. The servers are ALL so attentive but dont hover around and make you uncomfortable. The prices are a little high, but its only because you are paying for SERIOUS quality. Between the four of us, we've tried almost everything and have never been disappointed. Portions are large. Try the palak paneer, chicken tikka masala, garlic naan, the simosas, the dessert simmered in honey and the one with basmati rice and milk.
