I agree with the writer in April 2008. We used to get take out but last few times it was just not the same. Baigan Bharta was full of crunchy cloves or peppercorns and it had lots of undercooked peas. It was also greasier than before and just not enjoyable at all. We do hold everything accountable to the standards of Malabar Restaurant so our expectations are high.

We used to go to Ruchee in the past and we used to be blown away by the amazing food, service and in general the coziness of the place. We stopped by recently after a year of break (for lunch buffet)- and the experience was more than disappointing. The food was barely edible, my chicken actually bad more "goop" than meat, things were either over or underdone, and their amazing rice pudding was now rice in sweet water, literally :( The waiter kept running to our table every 2 minutes, trying to take our plates away despite of us not being done. The bottoms of the straws were pinched so we'd drink less soda... All in one it was a disappointing experience and when we paid we figured out why. Apparently the ownership of the place changed over the past year - they tried to say that it's for the better, it's now much better quality, better service, etc....Well I don't know..All I know is that this has been my favorite place but I now have no desire whatsoever to go back there. If anyone figures out what happened to the previous owners (did they open a new restaurant, and WHERE) post it please!! Lol! Their food and service was beyond amazing and especially after this disappointing experience I'd be willing to go anywhere after them!! :)
