    Has anyone tried this place in NY? I am thinking of going and was wondering how it was?

    It's great!

    My mom had their Indian platter and I had some FANTASTIC pizza. The desserts were also spectacular.

    Two BIG thumbs up

    Yeah, Quintessence is great. Their fofu handrolls are the bomb. The pepperpot soup is very good too.

    Yeah it's amazing. Get the Malai Kofta (the indian dish). The dinner version comes with wild rice (not really raw) and the lunch version comes with noodles and sauce. I really like the lunch version.

    Great restaurant really!

    Was there about 2 years back. I believe it was burger I had. It was okay, but not great as I see the word great. I love large portions so didn't feel I got one that was more on the slim side. Price was okay, but not familiar with NY prices since I was just visiting. Now in CA, "AuLac" I love to the max, max, max.

    OMG two major thumbs up! I would say that it was very reasonably priced and the freshness of the food is unbelievable! I ate sooo much and came out floating like a cloud. Enjoy! The hummus is the BEST I have ever had.
