Gourmet India Restaurant & Catering

Gaslamp, San DiegoWorth trying

A Gaslamp Indian restaurant on 4th Avenue that Roger tried after passing it for a while, rating it 3 stars for decent but not the best Indian food, small portions, and extra charges for rice and naan, though the lassi was good and he said he'd give it another shot.

The call

The documented visit included lassi. This record does not turn that order into a recommendation.

“Their lassi was good though.”

Had been noticing this place on 4th Avenue for a while before trying it with a friend. Service was okay and the restaurant was fairly empty at 4pm; plenty of seating for a group. Food wasn't the best Indian he's had but wasn't bad; portions were a bit small, and rice and naan cost extra. Said he'd give it another shot and might raise the rating next time.

A low-key rooftop whiskey-cocktail bar above a Gaslamp hotel; Roger says the list is smaller than Whiskey House or Aero's but the Old Fashioned or Sazerac still hits, alongside tasty tater tots.
