Mogul - St. John's

Probably the best Indian cuisine in the larger region of St. John. There was a little wait, but the chicken melted practically in the mouth and the vegetarian dish was full of taste. We finished our meal with a rice pudding that was light, nutty, but not excessively sweet. A great end to a great meal.

Amazing, went for the first time recently and was not disappointed. The meat was super delicate and everything I tried was delicious, the garlic naan bread tasted as it was baked when we ordered. I will definitely come back.

Place has an authentic tandoor (oven). This is essential for an authentic taste. It was double hope to go more often. Realizing fresh food needs time that we called for appetizers and then order more as soon as we are there. You can taste according to different levels of spices.

Delicious! Now, in full disclosure, we visited at 4pm on a weekday, 'before the rush '. We were the only customers at the time and things were still being prepped for the suppertime the tandoori breads were still being baked, for example. But the meal was PERFECT a free appetizer of fried strips of naan with chutney and raita, then our crispy and savoury Pakoras (with onion . Then into our main courses I ordered a 'safe ' butter chicken (it 's rare for anyone to make THAT unpalatable and the wife had Aloo Palak potatoes in spinach green chile sauce. We shared each and had some left over, so I wonder about people who complain about the serving sizes. The butter chicken was PERFECT often the cubes of chicken breast tend to dry out, but these were tender and delicious. The sauce was the perfect blend of sweet with a barely spicy aftertaste. This was arguably the best rendition of this dish I 've encountered in my travels, and it 's definitely the best in town. The potato spinach curry was good, too again the potato chunks hadn 't dried out, nor gotten soggy. It was a hotter dish something I sadly can 't tolerate easily so I only had a small portion, but my wife loved it. Nose a little runny, and the recommendation as something to help with a headcold or sore throat. ; As a mid meal side dish, we split a piece of buttered naan; a large single round cut into four pieces, which we used to clean our plates and clear our palates. We were eager to try a dessert, but felt full enough to not want to 'spoil the meal. ' All told, our bill was $25/person plus a well earned gratuity. I am heartened that Mogul has moved to a location fairly close to me, bringing their wonderful fare within practically walking distance, and we 've already planned our second visit!

This was the worst restaurant experience we have ever had. The tables were sticky and you do NOT want to know what was on the bathroom walls! The water glasses were filthy. We waited an hour and only got our appetizers. One neighbouring table never got one of the dishes they ordered. One of their dishes was delivered to the table next to them and sat there for more than 5 minutes. The lady serving tables in sweatpants and a sweatshirt was told about the error and simply took the dish off the table and gave it to the other table. It was not busy. Only 12 people in the restaurant and one takeout order went out the door in that hour. When we ordered rice with our meals, the waitress told us we didn't need rice as it came with one of our selections. We got fed up waiting and watching the waitress and female owner argue and told them we wanted to take the meal to go. Occasionally the female owner would walk back into the kitchen and come out chewing food. We paid almost 90$. When we got home.... The takeout containers leaked all over everything, the naan bread was burned and guess what......no rice. WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! Having worked in restaurants for more than a decade I can honestly say that this is the only time I have ever felt compelled to review a restaurant....and so badly.
