A truly hidden gem. I love that we stumbled upon this place. Their food is amazing. If you haven't had Bangladeshi food before, you have to try it! We got our food to go. I had enough food in one order for 3 separate meals. Definitely great to pick different dishes to try and save for left overs.
If you are afraid to pronounce the names of the food, the employees are very nice. They love giving suggestions or answering any questions you have about the food. They gave us many suggestions and they all turned out so good.
I've never eaten here before. The food is fantastic. It is a mom and pop shop with a variety of vegetarian and meat dishes. The chicken was very tender and the sauce mildly spicy. The vegetables were fantastic. They also have two different types of bread and both were worth the wait. I highly recommend if you like Thai or Indian food
Cilantro is probably my favorite restaurant. The atmosphere is more lunchtime casual, but the food is incredible. I always get the coconut shrimp + rice + veggies. It's a family run restaurant, authentic to the max, and we've never been disappointed. Food was excellent with layers of flavor. Owner and host was very friendly and overall experience was very good. This place is set up cafeteria style, and star rating is based on that assumption.
Awesome food, great beer selection. I had the Cowboy and it was great! Burgers are a bit on the small side, but taste great. The bar itself can get kind of crowded, since the entire restaurant is fairly small. Not a bad thing, though.
If you have a craving for this kind of food, this is the only place you should consider going. I cannot describe to you how amazing this place is. It is in a weird spot kind of far away from everything but it is worth it. I asked someone their one time if they had samosas, which they did not but the guy asked me if I liked them. I said yes, and he went back and made them. He didn't have to at all, they are just a bunch of really nice people sharing the food they love with whoever comes in.
I wish I could give it 6 stars.
