Indian Restaurants
Directions
This affordable, contemporary Indian restaurant, specializing in the cuisine of the Punjab region of Northern India, is named after India's roadside pit stops, where truck drivers go for a cheap, filling meal. And true to its namesake, The Dhaba is an affordable place to relax and indulge in awesome homemade breads baked in the tandoor oven, tandoori halal meats, deep-fried treats, and street snacks called chaat. There's good people-watching, too, from the young Indian families who come to feast on homey dishes, to the costumed performers who do tastefully choreographed Bollywood-style dances. Read our review.
