My apologies. The flavor profiles did not appeal. Not the wine (sweet) not the appetizers (spring rolls did not have the range of flavors that normally describe spring rolls) not the entrees. The broccoli was super greasy; the ribs were fatty and heavy were soaked with an odd brown gravy. Nothing tasted light or sweet /sour/ salty in a balanced way. The service was slow. it's hard to imagine why the place was filled with people? Maybe our taste preferences are different than the masses that frequent the place? We won't be back.

Iâve never eaten at a restaurant with such an interesting mix of cuisines. The Senegalese Peanut Curry was excellent, as were the Phuket Noodles, the Chicken Tinga Tacos, the Cuban Pork, and even the Nachos. While many restaurants will offer a mix of cuisines, usually they donât prepare any one very well, but that was not the case here. I would definitely return.

We started with veggie pakora and an assortment of momo, both of which were outstanding. The veggie momo were perhaps the best although the buffalo momo were very good. We followed with chicken sekuwa and chicken curry along with an outstanding goan shrimp curry. The naan from the Tandor clay oven was excellent (both the garlic and plain). We also tried the poori, a fried Indian flatbread that was new to us and also very good. The raita was fabulous. We brought our own wine, which was great, and their corkage fee was very modest ($10). The meal was excellent and of great value. What a great time!

Appreciated a nice comfy booth far away from the entrance on this frigid cold night. Took several minutes before we were acknowledged by our server. Once we got her attention we found her to be friendly and helpful. We tried the carrot soup which was served with pepitas and was piping hot. Tasted delicious on this winter night. The spring roll with shrimp was pretty ordinary. The peanut sauce was not a typical peanut sauce, but pretty good. The curry entree recommended by server was excellant. The Korean rib entree was a generous portion with lots of flavor, but a tad fatty.it was served wth mashed sweet potatoes which were barely warm and broccoli that was a tad to al dente. The atmosphere was delightful. It was lively, but you could easily converse and hear your companions. The menu is huge with selections for most palates. The portions are generous and very reasonably priced. I will absolutely return to try other menu items. An enjoyable evening!

This is a great little place and they even have a side room if you have a small group. Lots of windows and light. Friendly service and an excellent and fantastic lunch buffet everyday which includes appetizers, vegetarian & non-vegetarian dishes, salad bar & desserts. Simple, good and it won't break the budget. So happy to have this restaurant here on East Lake Street. Authentic Nepali, Indian and Tibetan Cuisine.

If you want authentic Italian food with good service, then Broders will not disappoint. The pastas are made in house daily and both entrees we had ( linguine with clams and linguine with Parma ham) were well prepared, nicely presented and delicious. Save room for deserts, they were fabulous also. The restaurant is busy, but get there either early or late because they do not take reservations.
