" I recently celebrated a birthday at Dhamaka, and it was one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had. The service was excruciatingly slow, and we had multiple menu items missing when they brought our food. To add to that, the staff didn’t seem bothered about the mistakes at all. When we did receive our food, it was underwhelming in flavor and not worth the price tag. I left disappointed and wouldn't recommend this place unless changes are made soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Dhamaka was a mixed experience for me. On one hand, the ambiance was inviting, and the decor was nicely themed. On the other, the food, while flavorful, felt overpriced for the portion size we received. The chicken tikka masala had great flavor, but I expected it to be more filling. Service took longer than expected without any explanation, which was disappointing. I think this place has potential, but some improvements are needed. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to many Indian restaurants, but Dhamaka really stands out! The flavor profiles were spot on—each dish had a unique taste that really celebrated Indian cuisine. We tried the chana masala and palak paneer, both of which were divine. The environment felt festive and warm. It did take a while to get seated initially, but the staff was attentive once we were at our table. I can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've always been skeptical about Indian restaurants due to past experiences, but Dhamaka has changed my opinion! The food was deliciously authentic, and I could taste the love in each bite. Our table ordered various dishes, and everyone was impressed. The only critique is about the portion sizes; they felt a bit smaller than expected, especially for the price. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an incredible dining experience at Dhamaka! The butter chicken was rich and flavorful, and the garlic naan was soft and perfectly cooked. The service was friendly, but we had to wait a little while for our food, which made the experience slightly less enjoyable. Overall, I would highly recommend this spot for authentic Indian food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved my meal here! Everything from the decor to the service was top-notch. The flavors were authentic; it took me back to my travels in India. I tried several vegetarian dishes, including the paneer tikka and dal makhani, both of which were outstanding. The only drawback was the lengthy wait time, which could use improvement. But I think it's worth it for the food quality. " (*Curated Review*)
