<p>This will be the most worthless post in this thread, but...</p>
<p>there's this really fancy Indian place that's like... really off of state? I think it is? All I know is that it's near Mongolian BBQ and a Chase Bank. REALLY good, REALLY expensive.</p>
<p>^^Near BD's on Main? Shalimar? Yes, very good. Other suggestions for not-so-cheap...some favorite ethnic spots: Pacific Rim @ W. Liberty/Main, Blue Nile @ Washington/5th, Raja Rani @ S. Division/E. William.</p>
<p>Oh yeah, I've been to Shalimar and a couple other Indian places on campus...no idea what to order, but yummy.</p>
<p>Yes! Shalimar! </p>
<p>Such a great place. I'm totally swiping my dad's CC to go there during orientation.</p>
<p>I always get mixed reviews for Indians restaurants (from the many Indians I know). Some love Madras Masala. Others hate it. The same can be said for Shalimar and Raja Rani (sp?). I've only been to Madras Masala, and I thought it was quite good. I think I like Indian food in general. But when I ask Indians what they think the best Indian restaurant is, I never get consistent answers.</p>
<p>Indian restaurants in Ann Arbor?! YESSSSSSSSS!! You guys made my day.</p>
<p>There's also an Indian vendor, Curry Express, on South University, but it's not always there.</p>
<p>Actually Christine, technically he's on East U. : )</p>
<p>I don't think that guy is there past 2 p.m.</p>
<p>theres this place on state street by jimmy johns. its like a 7/11.</p>
<p>16 inch cheese for $5.50
1 slice for $1.25</p>
<p>Cheapest pizza on campus. GG</p>
<p>nah backroom = $1 slice</p>
<p>shalimar is delicious, but you better not be goin anywhere after you eat because you're going to smell like indian food like no other.</p>
<p>Ann Arbor isn't that great for high class restaurant though. Chop house, pacific rim and real seafood are decent, but pretty mediocre for the money. </p>
<p>Totoro has decent sushi and bdubs is great on tuesdays (35 cent wings.)</p>
<p>Sushi.come
BTB
Back Room Pizza
All under 5 bucks</p>
<p>Cheapest, and maybe best by far is hitting up Meijer and making your own lunch as they have the largest selection in a supermarket and are dirt cheap.</p>
<p>Re: the party store by Jimmy Johns on State. You're talking about the Diag party store, I think, which I mentioned earlier. And I do love their pizza--makes for a very cheap lunch. The guy who owns it (Jerome) is a pretty nice guy.</p>
<p>Chop house is so overrated... especially b/c the bill came to $500 for four people and my steak was way overcooked.</p>
<p>If you haven't already, there's stuff at the back of the planner that we got at Orientation for food. That thing is handy...</p>
<p>Yeah, I was just reading it yesterday (can't believe you got around to it already :-p). It reminded me of little off the wall places I used to go to eat. Seems like a handy little book.</p>
<p>There is also a Chipotle on Washtenaw about 10 minutes from campus (by car) now. I had my car up here the last week and a half of school so I made a couple runs there and to Taco Bell. Having a car on campus is pretty awesome. Too bad I already committed to leaving it home a few months ago. But it does save some paper to leave it home.</p>
<p>The Thai place in/near Kerrytown is Siam and it's pretty good.</p>
<p>Also, Seva for vegetarians is good though pricey</p>
