What people say, in short
Sahib is a Curry Hill Indian restaurant that many diners recommend, calling it pretty good, budget-friendly compared to other Indian spots in the city, and one commenter's go-to. The garlic naan and chili garlic naan get particular praise, and one diner highlights chicken 65 and lamb madras from the takeout, though they dislike that rice costs extra in person. One visitor had a poor experience and never returned, and another warns the spice level runs high, so order conservatively.
