Amul India - a Columbus hidden treaure
Tonight was my second trip to Amul India. My first trip was with my book club - at the suggestion of a member of the group who cooks Indian all the time and her husband is Indian. Tonight I went with my family. My friend feels it is the best Indian restaurant in Columbus. I am inclined to agree. I have eaten Indian in Toronto and New York City and frankly - Amul India has both of those restaurants beat.
The food is fantastic, it is fresh, fragrant, and brought to the table quickly. The service is attentive and very helpful - ready to answer questions and make suggestions. The restaurant is also kid friendly - they have high chairs and booster seats.
The menu is long and features Tandoor Favorites and a number of chicken, lamb and vegetarian dishes. There are also a variety of rice dishes and various breads are also offered. I had chicken saag and the rest of my family happily dined on Tandoori Chicken - half a chicken cut up and served with onions and peppers. Lemon wedges on the side. My first trip to Amul Indian I tried the Saag Biriyani - which was good but the chicken saag was even better!
The Mango Lassi is a crowd pleaser and I love the Chia - it is not sweet - like the commercial instant varieties.
The entire menu is also available for carry out and they also offer catering services.
Amul India is located in Dublin, Ohio - off of Sawmill Rd. It would be very convient before or after a trip to the Zoo - or is very close to many hotels located in Worthington or Dublin. Since it is located in a strip mall - there is plenty of parking.
