London Sizzler. A turn for the worst in 2008.

Perhaps it was our raving review of this place that has led to their smashing success? In any case, their success and popularity seem to have come at a cost: SERVICE! Ghopaul and I have never actually walked out of a restaurant before, but last night, our group of eleven diners, walked out of London Sizzler after waiting nearly 2 hours for our food. To add insult to injury (or rather, hunger), the group next to us who had ordered their food after we did was served first. The unapologetic response of the wait staff and the management further fanned our hunger-induced fury.

Alas, their success has gone to their heads!

The utter disappointment of last night's experience was coupled with the enormous embarrassment that Ghopaul and I felt towards our friends and guests to whom we had raved on and on about the greatness of this restaurant!

Sadly, we must revise our review of London Sizzler. Unless you have the patience of Mother Theresa, I would stay away from this restaurant. And definitely, DO NOT TAKE COMPANY HERE!

If this restaurant were a Bollywood movie, it would be:

Cash

A slick movie with B-rated Bollywood stars about lost diamonds being pursued by hip, cool diamond thieves in Africa!

Hey, sounds kinda familiar? Once crowned as "the hidden jewel" among Indian restaurant in Houston, London Sizzlers too has been lost. We are officially stripping London Sizzler of that title. Perhaps Houston-diners will now have to search for a new hidden diamond. Or perhaps, this lost diamond will one day be recovered. But I wouldn't hold your breath!
