We had a great time here. The cocktail menu was different and has Indian touch to various standard American fare.Portions were good sized and spice levels are mild. We had to specify “spicy” to get spice level to a “normal” level.They have decent vegetarian choices. But I wish they had some creative choices for veg entrees too

We stopped by for dinner at Kama Bistro for dinner. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. Table sizes are good with sufficient distance between adjacent tables for privacy. We felt the food is a bit overpriced for the variety and taste of it. Menu overall is very limited and short. For vegetarian entrees, you have malai kofta and then paneer or mix veg that can be made in 5 different types of sauces of your choice. The idea is unique but it felt like this could have been better with just proper dedicated dish types. The taste was above average and quantity was good too.

Everything was excellent. Food, drinks and service. It was super busy by the time we reached. Yet, we got seated immediately and our server came to us and communicated about him getting multiple tables at same time and that he will be back in couple minutes to explain about specials which is nice of him to communicate. He was attentive and made good recommendations. Food was great. Loved the Kamarita and Guava cloud. Mango Lassi is really good as well. Will be back to try more.

Horrible food. The chef lacks the depth. The Tikka Masala was very sour and The Tomato Taste was still strongly lingering. The acidity of the tomatos caused stomach acidity to all of us. Kofta were soft but Gravy was lacking depth of the Indian Spice. Crispy Chilli Potatoes were not crispy but more boiled. Service was lacking and the waiter barely showed up at our table other than taking orders. The only good thing about this place was its ambiance.

Me and my wife went to Kama Bistro for Lunch on Sept 16. We ordered Malai Kofta, Makhani paneer, Garlic Nan and Roti. I must say it was a disappointment. Gravy for Makhani was sour as if we were eating raw tomatoe gravy and the Nans were raw I could taste the dough. We also ordered Mango lassi and it was sweet and sour as if the yogurt was old. They really need to improve their quality during lunch. It was not a disappointment last year when we came here for dinner.

Went here during restaurant week, which is great value, otherwise very pricey for the quality. The lamb chops were amazing as well as a few of the appetizers. Everything else tasted like a typical Indian menu item, nothing elevated. Most of the meals tasted bland. We ordered the bass and it was slightly under cooked. I got ice cream for dessert and it was underwhelming. I have to say though, the staff are amazing!

Service was okay. We had to ask for water 5 minutes after we got seated. The ambiance was good but when it comes to food, the chef lacks the depth. The Tikka Masala was very sour and gravy had strong tomato taste which was still strongly lingering. Kofta were soft but the gravy was lacking depth of the indian spice. Crispy Chilli Potatoes were not crispy but more boiled.

If you’re looking to try good Indian food please do not go here , terrible vegetarian food… the gravy used for Panner tikka masala did not have any flavor other than canned tomatoes, the quality of the food was also not that great for the price charged.

I walked in there with my gorgeous girlfriend . We were then seated next to each other shoulder to shoulder . We then waited 20 minutes and were ignored by multiple waiters, not even getting water . The last straw was another couple walking in and getting instantly served . They totally discriminated me and my girlfriend .

We ordered the lamb shank vindaloo, the tandoori fish, and the chicken lemon tadka, plus some naan. Each of these plates was incredible with very different and bold flavors. We already have plans to go back for some of the specials they have, like tandoori Tuesday. The tadka was especially good, and I could have it for every meal. We went during restaurant week, so service was a bit slow, but not bad. The drinks were also very good and were very unique. They do have more traditional dishes, but seem to be known for more experimental and modern takes on traditional Indian food. The restaurant and music were very fun, and the bar is a cool place to hang out. If you are looking for a twist on your favorite Indian dishes, definitely try Kama.

I had lunch with a friend who was new to Indian cuisine. Our waiter took the time to give us the background of the restaurant and explain multiple dishes, noting the difference in flavors and spices, and giving recommendations. He was so patient and kind, and you could tell he genuinely cared. We loved all of the dishes we ordered. The short-rib special was so delicious and huge! The lamp chops were also out of this world. Will definitely return!Dietary restrictions: All meat was halal except the chicken. Check with server or call ahead.
