“Great food, reasonable prices”

Basera Restaurant

5 of 5 stars
Augusta,GA
Apr 12, 2008

The chicken tikka masala ($13) was excellent - full of complexity and spice but not too fiery. The chicken korma ($13) had a bit more fire and a bit less spice, and was also excellent. We gauge a very good Indian by the naan ($4 -a bit pricy) and Basera's was perfect - roasting hot right out of the oven, crispy on the outside, soft & chewy on the inside. The meal came with complimentary pakoras (maybe due to our Open Table reservation?) and lots of fluffy rice. The Kingfisher beer came in enormous bottles ($8- 22oz) and was a good accompaniment. One of the best Indian meals we've had, so we would definitely return.

“A welcome addition to Hell's Kitchen”

Basera Restaurant

5 of 5 stars
New York City, New York
Dec 28, 2007

New to Hell's Kitchen, Basera is a welcome addition to the neighborhood. (745 9th Ave, between W. 50th & 51st) Everything from the service to the music was top notch, and the price was more than reasonable for the food we received. The night began with complimentary papaddums and condiments. We chose large Kingfish beers, instead of wine. The appetizer selections are the tried and true, so we decided to split an order of vegetable samosa, which arrived as a pair with a bit of chopped salad on the side. Entree choices include vegetarian, seafood, chicken and lasmb dishes, including a selection of tandoori specialties. My husband enjoyed the lamb vindaloo, and I had the chicken lahori curry. The basmati rice is delicious in itself, and the onion naan we enjoyed with our dinner was heavenly. The service could not be better, and the atmosphere is modern, yet distinctively Indian. The price was just under $60 for the two of us. We will definitely return to Basera.
