Hello everyone! I hope all of your Thanksgivings were wonderful and you ate as much turkey as I did. I am sad it's over...it's one of my favorite holidays of the year but with the end of Thanksgiving came an unexpected invitation to one of the best meals I've had in a long time.
I had heard good things about the restaurant before but Imlee Indian Bistro surprised me. I happen to love Indian food but usually when I need my curry or vindaloo fix I head over to the House of India in Coral Gables which although a little rough around the edges, I have always liked for its home-cooked food in a family restaurant vibe.
Imlee picks up where the House of India left off. It has the same cozy family restaurant feel but is not at all rough around the edges and is in fact quite refined in the decor as well as with the food that they serve. The menu is extensive with lots of different meat, chicken, fish, and vegetarian dishes to choose from. We wanted to have a taste of everything so we ordered a dish from each of these sections. We ordered a tandoori lamb appetizer that was one of the evening's specials as well as the baingan bharta eggplant, goa fish curry, and the chicken tikka masala. We also ordered a side of naan bread (which is a must) to dip in all of the amazing sauces. Each one of the dishes was absolutely delicious. So delicious in fact that I actually slowed myself down when I was eating because I realized that I didn't want the meal to end. It really was that good.
Imlee is in an inconspicuous little strip mall in Pinecrest and it is tiny. I went on Saturday night it was packed full so you definitely should make reservations, especially on the weekends. It was the perfect end to a weekend of great food so head down to Pinecrest and give it a try.
Again I tried this place and was very pleased .
Do you know where to get a good burger in Miami ?
Thanks
