The food here is high-quality and tasty, and the blue interior is cute. The staff is very friendly too! However, it was not worth the $150 we ended up spending for two drinks, two apps, two mains and 1 dessert. Their drinks menu is limited and they do not have a cocktail menu. You can ask for something from their limited bar. All the seating is bar seating of high top, so it’s not an ideal place for a romantic date. The staff also did not seem to communicate very well with each other, we had multiple people coming over to take our order even when we just ordered from someone else. Overall, food is good but the experience mediocre.

First of all, the staff is very nice and hospitable. They accomodated us and made sure my family is comfortable. 10/10 on the staff behavior and serving the food.
Second thing is ambience- it looked ok. Nothing to praise about the ambience.
Third/Major thing is food- Little background about my visit. My mom is vegetarian and she wanted to have good indian food on mother’s day. Googled some good restaurants and Chef prasad popped up. Drove 45 mins to get there. Ordered bunch of food items - everything vegetarian. I am not sure if it’s only vegetarian but the Vegetarian food was so bad. Paying $15 avg for a small size appetizer- You expect that to taste good. While leaving the restaurant, my mom literally said that - “You make amazingly good food than this restaurant. Ask their chef to get some lessons on how to make Indian Vegetarian Food”. I think this restaurant is more suitable to those people who do not know what is good Indian food tastes like.

We’ve been regulars at Chef Prasad’s and Thali for the past 20 years, and the food has been authentic and superb EVERY single time. The hospitality from Chef Prasad and each member of his team also has been so without exception. (Photo shows a recent very tasty, healthy dessert.)

Ohh where do I start? The food is absolutely gourmet delicious, fresh, and overall a satisfying meal.
We went there as a hungry group at around 1 PM during week day, for lunch as the Google maps showed the restaurant is open with all lovely photos. Upon entering we realized they would only entertain delivery of food during day time. As we were too hungry to find another restaurant to eat, we ended up sitting there and ordered food using a delivery service on mobile. It seems they entertain dine in only during evening hours. The chefs then gave the packaged foods on our hands and we had to use their place and cutleries to self serve ourselves and eat. It was horrible experience, and we would not have gone there if the google availability timings reflected otherwise. The management should ensure they update google availability.

Chef Prassad creates magic in the kitchen. His style of food brings out the many flavors found in Indian cuisine. All good dishes are freshly made and serviced with perfect amount of spices.

We have been eating Chef Prasad's food since we moved here 10-years ago. It's always been amazing and last year he has started chef collaborations, that fuse different culinary styles. The first one we went to was Italian + Indian and the dishes were mind-blowing. The tickets are fairly expensive, but it's worth every cent. It include canapés, 5 courses, the drinks flow and you get to meet like-minded foodies. If you haven't checked it out already - don't miss out by visiting his website.
Vegetarian options: Excellent variety and I often choose them instead of meat.
Dietary restrictions: Chef will provide vegetarian if there is something you cannot eat. Many dishes are gluten free.
Kid-friendliness: It's a family friendly space.

O M G! This is by far the best curry in all of CT! Unlike other local Indian restaurants, you can taste the fresh ingredients! The care and attention put into the food, service and atmosphere is 5 star!

Available seating was at the bar only. No table seating in the restaurant. Service by Raymond was excellent.
Vegetarian options: Only one vegetarian entree on the menu but many vegetable side dishes and appetisers.

Horrible experience travelled very far in the rain with my kids to find out they only have dinner at the bar.
Went in around 2:30pm and were given dinner menus/prices.Very basic and bland americanized version of 'indian' food, i dont think prasad knows how to cook north indian dishes..
