I have been to expensive Indian restaurants that absolutely sucked. They were very heavy on the bread and little else. But our local Bombay Bistro is one of the best, and cheapest. The chutneys will knock your socks off. Of course this is relatively speaking, never having been to India.

See the so called highly rated ones, NY Times, Zagat etc. are truly atrocious, the ones in NY and SF as well as Washington DC, their menu and dishes don't taste anything like what it is in India, majority of the dishes don't even exist in India.
