Chili Chicken Indian Bistro - Stamford

Undoubtedly the worst Indian restaurant in Connecticut don’t even think of ordering from this place, the food is stale!

Don't eat HERE. Please. Do your stomach and your wallet a favor PLEASE, DON'T EAT HERE!

Unfortunately no zero star option so have to assign one star which even they aren 't worthy of. Horrible, appalling. Stay away and thank me later for saving you time, money, and your sanity and dignity. Have never felt more slighted anywhere as a customer, ever. This is what happened: I placed an order online, restaurant accepted the order on the app and updated pick up time to about 35 mins from then. Half an hour later at pick up time when I was pulling my car into their parking when I received a call from them, I was expecting the call was to say the order is ready for pick up, but they had called to say they don 't have an item available and that they can 't make it. I asked why didn 't they let me know sooner, and politely asked to cancel the order and refund if they don 't have what I ordered available. But the manager refused to cancel the order and insisted I pick up any another item instead(! , and tried to force me to pick up something I didn 't want, for which I didn 't comply. He then hung up saying I 'm not going to cancel or give your money back. I 'm giving you a choice to pick up any other rice from our menu. Come in pick up anything else instead (of what I ordered . I 'm not going to cancel, If you want your money back you can call the app and ask them. I don 't care man and put down the phone even as I was attempting to protest the unreasonableness of this!! I 'm quoting verbatim. I spent the next half hour talking to the food delivery app 's support to cancel an order the restaurant accepted but refuses to fulfill, but also refuses to cancel!!! And the least talked about the customer service attitude the better. The irony, I had added $3 (10% tip as gratuity to be meted out this most unprofessional behavior from the restaurant 's management. Please take you money and business elsewhere to where they do care . I was robbed off my money (refund subsequently issued by the app will still take few days to credit back , time (half an hour of wait time, and then another half hour in redressal with the app 's support to get them to cancel and give me a refund , left hungry having to belatedly place an order elsewhere, and above all left deeply offended. And let me iterate all of this was totally unprovoked and their dismissive words uncalled for. Unbelievable! Thugs. It 's going to take me some to digest this!

The food was disappointing. We were initially drawn in by the menu, which offered a unique selection that isn't typically found in the USA. However, I truly regret choosing to order from here.

They've bounced back from their previous issues, which is great to see. They’re back to being our favorite spot for Indian takeout in Stamford.
