Restaurant on Indian Row offers live tabla music to accompany inexpensive traditional dishes and specials. Delivery and takeout are available.

The delicate sounds and spices of India

Calcutta is a real treat. They feature live sitar music while you eat and the food is fantastic. The flavors are complex, but not too spicy. I would prefer spicier food, but for most people, this is a good level of heat. Last night we tried the mixed tandoor, lamb biryani, and kadi ghost . All were excellent. The portions are good for an Indian restaurant and they participate in Restaurant dot com, so we were able to get a $25 discount. The service was excellent, probably due to the small crowd of diners - 3 tables on a Tuesday night. I think the recession will provide a lot of quiet dining experiences, so make sure you take advantage so that these places can stay in business.

Pros: Great flavors, Live music,
Cons: You are charged extra for sides like chutney

by whatevs510

The service was atrocious, the lamb chops were cold and had to be sent back, and they forgot several of our dishes. it was NOT a good experience.

Pros: good live music
Cons: food, service

BEST INDIAN FOOD

by FoodCritic724

The food was delicious. I ordered chicken tika masala, best flavor ever. naan is so fresh and tasty. Waiter was very happy to describe everything on the menu. Perfect menu for vegetarians. Relaxing music. There were so many choices in food. I like that they have private bathrooms!
