Panna Ii Garden Indian - New York City

Great (but small atmosphere. This restaurant is great for those on a budget. It's BYO and we had an appetiser, entree and (free? dessert for about $15 a head. The food is tasty and the portions/options make it a good idea to get an entree each and share.<br/ <br/ The best thing about Panna II is by far the atmosphere. The hanging lights make for a memorable experience. However, as with most popular restaurants, they try to cram as many people as possible and you can find that there's not much room for moving your elbows.<br/ <br/ Nonetheless, highly recommended for a fun night out.

Great Date Place. Crowded and fun. I liked this place for a first date its cheap, tasty and unique. Great lunch too.

Great food, wonderful atmosphere. Not for the faint of heart, but definitely a great place. One of my favorite restaurants in Manhattan. Servers always friendly, as well as other patrons. Forced into close quarters, it's easy to make new friends. With a great BYOB policy and a store just downstairs, everyone in the place is usually a bit snaked up. Make sure you order the samosas as well as the garlic naan. Great for pairs or groups, just make sure you tell them it's your neighbor's birthday.

This place isn't for the faint of heart, but it promises a fun night out. The food is delicious, although it's not the best Indian cuisine I've ever had. The atmosphere is cozy and lively, and the service is quick, but keep in mind you’re not in a fine dining establishment. It's affordable and lively, and I'd definitely come back for a laid-back, budget-friendly evening.

This might be one of the most unusual restaurants I've ever visited. It's quite small and located in a building that houses three other competing restaurants, all of which had people outside trying to entice us to come in. We were seated toward the back, right by the restroom, and with the door open, it felt like we had an extra seat at our table! The staff were friendly, and the food was tasty. However, if you're in a large group and anyone is over 5'10", you might feel a bit cramped. Overall, it was a good experience.
