Teji's
Indian Restaurant and Grocery

We decided to try another Indian restaurant, this time with meat.  We had read reviews of Teji's online and decided to give it a whirl.

Walking in, we immediately noticed the dark red interior with some nice lighting.  The very diverse crowd started trickling in more so while we were finishing up, but that didn't seem to be much of a problem as Teji's had lots of seating available.







After we sat down, we were brought some chips with a sweet/sour sauce and a slightly spicier green sauce.  The menus had a lot of options, so we had a hard time deciding on what to order. 


 We weren't too adventurous with our choices as it was our first time there and ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala, Butter Chicken with Garlic Naan and Cheese Naan. We also ordered a sweet lassi to clean our palettes in between bites. The food was delicious and came out very quickly. Both main dishes came with a bowl of rice and it was definitely way too much food for us to handle.  The dishes were both very rich and filling and had tons of bite-sized pieces of chicken.  We preferred the garlic naan to the cheese naan as it seemed to blend better with the bold flavors.  By the end, we were definitely uncomfortably full, but we did most definitely enjoy getting there!  

 After the meal, we decided to meander through the grocery store that was connected to the restaurant and it was nice to see a variety of hard-to-find foods on sale there.  We ended up just buying a really soft scarf, but we know where to go next time if we're craving Indian food. :)
