GANDHI INDIAN RESTAURANT - TUCSON, AZ

I really like this restaurant. It is never crowded and the service - though always with a quirky addition - is good and efficient. During this last visit, we asked the waiter for separate checks (we were out with Jean and Tim) and he said "well, i have to get another slip then." and he paused!  was he waiting for bill to say "oh, don't bother then; that's a long way to walk to the front of the restaurant which is all of 40 feet."? Bill told him that we would just wait till he got the other slip. wierd.

The food was very good and portions are big. immediately upon being seated, there is a big basket of thin cracker like bread with 3 dipping sauces brought to the table.  Bill and I shared 2 entrees. One was  mixed vegetables in curry sauce which was excellent and the other one was a biryani dish which is a rice dish; we ordered chicken and we have left overs for lunch. There was lots of tender chunks of chicken and the flavor and texture of the dish was excellent.

With the entrees comes a spicy yoghurt sauce, fruit, flaky moist rice and a lentil concoction. The prices are reasonable also. The only criticism i have (surprise - surprise that i have ONLY one.) is that the food is served in partitioned metal plates. Its like being in prison or back at school. This, however, is not enough to stop a return visit to this restaurant.
