Title: An Indian Treasure - Review: Monsoon being my first Indian restaurant experience, I was highly pleased with this treasure. The ambiance of the restaurant was lovely--Indian music (great for dancing!), high backed sultan's chairs, and beautiful wall paintings gave the restaurant an authentic, but fancy, feeling. The food was excellent. We ordered the sweet naan, which came with coconut and cherries--a sweet-toothed pleasure before the spiciness ensued. The curry came in four styles of heat--mild, medium, hot, and tiki. We chose the medium, which was hot enough for me! The curry was just right (I ordered mango) and very flavorful. I was pleased that I had been warned about the heat of the dishes, and I would recommend that, unless you can stomach ultra-spicy foods, not to go above medium. All in all, Monsoon was a fun, eclectic, and delicious experience. I would most definitely go again. There are hundreds of choices for anyone, even if you don't like Indian food, and it is hard to choose just one item.

Title: WOW! - Review: I was apprehensive about trying Indian food at first, but I brought my friend in with me to try out Monsoon. Everything was excellent! The decor is alluring and waterfall is relaxing. The martini list was great, the mangotini is a must! We tried the pakora sampler for an appetizer and had the chicken makhani and yellow dal for dinner. We loved the food and our server was very helpful in guiding us in the right direction as far as food and drink chioces. I would recommend this place to anyone who has never tried Indian food and for those who are already big fans.

Title: Indian Sweetness - Review: WOW! I was hesatant of visiting this location because i read a few bad reviews, (but you know how those go) but was rewarded BIG TIME. The staff was very friendly and profesional, the food was awesome, and the bar selections were way above average. I recogmend the mixed grille with garlic naan and the chicken tika masala. And from the bar, the mango tini, infact the bar tender actually asked me how i would like the drink made and then personally delivered it to me, thats service. Furthermore all the dishes are also made custome to your liking. Another huge selling point for me anyway was that as i entered the establishment, one of my life time idols, MIke Ness from Social Distortion was thanking the waiter as he left. To me thats a selling point. Definatelly try this one out!

Title: New fan of Indian food - Review: This was my first experience trying Indian food. I was floored at how tasty the various curries were. I absolutely loved the Vegetarian appetizer sampler with the various sauces. My only complaint was the slow service. I asked for a glass of wine with dinner. By the time he remembered, my dish was halfway done. I will be coming back for the food though!!! Excellent.

Title: not for the weak of stomach - Review: My girlfriend, who loves Indian food was really very enchanted by the entire atmosphere. I was enchanted by my girlfriend. We found common ground in the food, we both loved it. I do warn you, if you are not used to the spicy stuff, stay at home, this stuff has some kick.

Title: Great Service, Food -
Review:
We reserved a table at Monsoon from out of town based on its high recommendations. We were not disappointed. The ambience was lovely and inviting. The food was delicious as expected. But it was the service that really put Monsoon over the top. We had arrived a little earlier than the crowd that eventually settled in, and our host let us select our own table. He continued to show attentiveness without being overbearing, and that set the right tone that allowed us to enjoy our meal with friends. I would also recommend Monsoon and would consider eating there again next time we're in San Diego.

Title: Wonderful service and excellent food -
Review:
After reading both positive and negative reviews, we decided to give Monsoon a shot. We are so glad we did! We made our reservation for 8pm Saturday evening, we needed to push it back to 845pm. It was no problem. The waitress was a nice girl that took great care of us. The food was just as we ordered, fantasicly spicy! Everything was just great for our night out. Highly recommend Monsoon!
