We ate a late lunch on a recent Saturday at the Hot&Cold Cafe. While the buffet looked tempting, we opted for ala carte. Our group ordered the lamb curry (excellent), the paneer (also excellent), one of the lentil dishes (excellent), a lamb/spinach/onion wrap (good), and the sampler plate of hummus, babaganoush, & falafel (good). We also had the mixed pickle... More

In Lynchburg where it can be difficult to dine out as a vegetarian, we have here a treasure! The owner is a doll, service is wonderful and the food is divine. A small cafe atmosphere makes it an ideal spot for a chitter chattin' date with a friend.

This was my first visit. The owner was very friendly and wanted to make sure you like your food. I had the buffet which I would recommend. Good variety. Nothing was bad but I didn't leave anticipating my next visit. It's worth trying on a lazy weekend lunch. Something different in Lynchburg which was unexpected.

If you love Indian/Middle Eastern foods, this is a rare find for you, tucked away on a side street in downtown Lynchburg. We had the lunch buffet--and everything on it was PERFECT. The dal soup was excellent. The desserts were a super-rich custard and baklava--dripping with honey. The proprietor/chief-cook/bottle-washer is the most accommodating host ever--and he does everything possible to... More

This place is awesome. A real gem amongst the "blah" Southern and Italian fare that permeates Lynchburg. Tasty gyros? Check. Rich and aromatic curries? Check. Authentic Indian food prepared by a friendly Indian dude from Hyderabad. Very un-Lynchburg. Very good.

Fun place to eat with pretty good food. Would have prefered drinks in glasses rather than out of the can.

The owner makes the dishes from scratch, and they are great. I've been to Indian several times and believe the food here is better than what I ate in India. Be sure to save room for dessert'

During a recent trip to Lynchburg we visited several of the downtown restaurants recommended online. Our first stop was the Waterstone Pizza on Jefferson Street. We shared a large spinach salad and a white pizza along with several of their Jefferson Brewery beers. The food and beer were all very good. The next day we continued our tour of downtown... More

Although this is a Mediterranean and Indian fusion restaurant (both cuisines are served) I decided to focus on the Indian food although I was sorely tempted by the Mediterranean items. The dal soup was a great beginning, made (obviously) from fresh ingredients and subtly and wonderfully seasoned. The owner, who was also the server, was very solicitous about the spiciness... More
