Xi'an's only Indian restaurant is tucked away in quaint surroundings. Spicy curries, Tandoori Chicken, roti and naan bread. English-speaking staff help make the ordering process a breeze. The average price is about RMB45 per person. |

Rating and Review
i had a green worm in my vegetable dish- a caterpillar? they said no worries, it's only a vegetable worm that likes to cling to brocolli. only reason i noticed it was because i was slowly picking away at that dish. the waitress talked to the manager, and the manager came over and apologized and compted my meal, but not my friend's who had the same platter. they also gave me free desert. the owner was there but didn't come over. I will never visit that place, ever. not recommended.
I stopped going to Cacaja after I noticed the portions were magically shrinking with each visit.
I visited Cacaja recently with friends and was horrified by what we found. It starts small and ends with the worst finding ever in a dish.
Firstly we received the wrong soups. Being vegetarians we were very disappointed and sent back the soups - which seemed to make the manager/ boss ( middle aged Indian guy) irritated, an unlikely situation considering the mistake was not ours. Secondly, our mains were not hot. Obviously they had been re-heated from the refrigerator, as a Chef I am aware of the log book process and the risks of under-heating food that has been cooled, when we asked for our food to be checked by the boss he looked at us as if we were scumbags. Naturally we were a bit upset at his reaction. Now the real offense. When our food returned, a pin ( as in what is used when sewing) was discovered in one of our mains. We alerted the boss, who approached our table with a long roll of his eyes and a sarcastic sigh. We showed him the pin he hardly reacted at all, we think it didn't surprise him at all. when no one returned to explain or apologise we left. When we walked past the boss, he ignored us. We waited beside him for an apology, none came. 1. wrong soup 2. potentially poisonous mains 3. metal sewing pin in the main. the wrong soup was a small mistake. the other two offenses could have caused immense damage to a human. appalling. BE WARNED
