I had only eaten at their Bread Bar, but I thought their food was more like "schizophrenic Indian." It was like the food couldn't decide if it wanted to be Indian or not. But my bias was because I love everything about Indian cuisine but don't really like French cuisine, so mixing the two just didn't work for me. I met a girl whose boyfriend was a chef there, and she said the dude would tell everyone the cuisine was "New American" because people were confused by a French-Indian restaurant.
