Comments (1) Best Cheap Curries - 2006

Chutney

There are so many South Asian restaurants in this section of the Tenderloin that some have taken to calling it (not very cleverly) the "Pak-Loin." Besides serving tasty, cheap curries, Chutney stands out for its slightly upscale ambience (well, as upscale as an order-at-the-counter Tenderloin restaurant can be). The goat curry is one of the best dishes on the menu, along with the tandooris and that old standby, chicken tikka masala. The place has got great hot tea in the back, and the kitchen bakes a nice, soft naan. The food generally isn't too spicy, so ask for extra spice if that's your preference. It's BYOB, too, so make sure to pick up some Indian beer from the liquor store across the street.
