Not only is the food to die for here -- but the entire staff, including Vikram ( the owner) himself, makes you feel so welcome. Remember when going here -- you will more than likely have a hour to 2 wait -- but stick around because it is worth it! While waiting outside -- staff will promptly get you drinks... more

We read a lot of great reviews about this place and were really excited to go. It was not worth the long wait to get in (they don't take reservations).

Try the lamb popsicles, they are a dream, especially the cream curry sauce. The Chai is amazing, too. Vij's offers great ambiance, great service, great food and great wine. Vij's does not take reservations so start queuing up at 5 pm for their 5:30 pm door opening if you want to grab dinner without too much waiting time. more
