Best Indian?

All the talk of Indian food made the hubby and I drool, so we went to DakShin for dinner. As usual, it was excellent, and, bonus, I have leftovers for lunch!

I just realized that I haven't put my own opinions in here: It's DakShin and Bombay Grill at the top for me, with a nod to Sitar (although I think I liked it a little better when it was new), and the buffet at India Palace is pretty good, particularly in its wide range of vegetarian offerings. I want to be more fond of Shalimar and Kashmir, but I find their food a little more Americanized; and worse, often encounter sullen to rude service at those places.

The short-lived Royal India (near the old Sears ) was good, but its replacement, Sage Indian, was not, and I noticed the other day that it's gone now.

I will have to agree with Robin on the "service" at Kashmir. Although I find nothing particularly wrong with the food - it's quite good - the surliness of the staff is more than I care to put up with. Especially when there are so many others great options for Indian food. And I also agree that Sitar was better/more consistent when it was new. We ate there last Sunday and enjoyed it. But we still like DakShin better.
