I took my newly wed friends here as they said that this place was a restaurant that had been on their list. I'm glad we got the recommendation to come here. I made a reservation like a month in advance, but I don't think it's really needed. The place was kind of empty at the time we got there on a Friday night so I think it just depends. The restaurant is basically a house transformed into a restaurant. Inside, it's really dim as far as lighting goes. They try to set the mood here, but I think what ultimately happens is that people need to get their cell phones out and use flashlights to see the menu. Maybe it's just me getting old and not being able to have night vision with my eyes. Anyways, let's get onto the food. For appetizers, we shared a samosa. It was alright, nothing crazy or special though. i would say that the presentation was nice, but other than that eh. For my main, I ordered the Dheemi Aanch Ka Gosht. It was a soupy saucy kind of dish. Very well seasoned, as I expect from Indian cuisine and I would say it was spicy as well. So I would definitely recommend to order a side of garlic naan with the dish as that naan would soak all that sauce up and it elevates the dish. Overall, Copper is great if you're looking for a upper scale dimly lit date night Indian restaurant. The food has great flavors and would make a wonderful second meal out of the leftovers with rice or naan to sop up all the flavors if you decide to get a curry. The amount of food was good as well. Service was nice as well all of the waiters were attentive.

I was in town for a business meeting and chose to dine at Copper. The restaurant is set in a beautifully restored older-style home, creating an inviting first impression. Inside, the dim lighting and warm ambiance made it feel like an ideal spot for a date night, though our group of 10 also felt comfortable. We ordered tapas-style, sharing a variety of appetizers and entrées across the table. Every dish was flavorful, but the standout for me was the cauliflower--easily the best I've ever had. Unfortunately, I don't recall the names of all the dishes as one of our party members, who is very familiar with Indian cuisine, did the ordering for us. The only critique I have is that the rice was served last, which made it tricky to enjoy the curries as they were brought out. It would have been great to have the rice earlier to better pair with the sauces. That said, the rice itself was good--light and not overly sticky. The staff were incredibly accommodating and respectful, which enhanced the overall experience. The food was delicious, and I'd love to return someday to explore more of the menu.

It's one word. Delicious! I will be back. The atmosphere and service was out of this world. 5+ stars. A diamond in the sand.

I love restaurants that are inside houses! 3 of us came and everything looked so inviting we ALL decided to order 2 dinners with the plan of taking home leftovers. The atmosphere is lovely inside. This is a great place for a date night. Colorful striped walls and lighting. White linen table cloths and very good service. I have not been here in several years because the food seemed "Americanized" to me. In my opinion, the sauces are much better than the last time I came. The only negative I found was their hesitancy in giving you spicy food. When I ordered, I told the waiter I had been to India and I'd like it as spicy as he would eat it. I ordered chicken korma at a level 6 and he told me the Goa shrimp were already spicy and wouldn't give me the option to make it spicier. Needless to say, I was extremely disappointed in the goa shrimp. It was so bland I could not eat it. One of the gals at the table had also ordered it who is not a big spice person and even she said it wasn't spicy. I had to ask the waiter to bring chili paste. He brought a large ramkin of chili paste and I used 3/4 of what I was given. THAT is how bland it was ! The sauce to my chicken korma was pretty good at level 6. The sauce was tastey and I enjoyed it. However, the chicken itself was dry and obviously made separately from the sauce and then thrown in to save time. I would never get this again for that reason. In fact, I would hesitate to get any chicken dishes here wondering if they have done the same with all of them to save time. When you do this, the chicken itself never gets the moisture and flavor of the sauce. One person got the saag paneer and said it was excellent. One gal got a fried potato dish with sauce and we all agreed it was the best.

Copper is an overall amazing experience, the service is great, the food is great (you HAVE to get the Paneer Tikka Kadhai; warning, it is spicy), and the restaurant itself is stunning. The food here is great all day long but I think Copper is a top tier weekend lunch spot.

GREAT EXPERIENCE! We came here for my partner's birthday, and I would say it was a success! The location is very pretty, in an older house that has been transformed into a restaurant. We sat in a room by a window with just a few other tables. There was also a parking lot, and it's pretty close to the East/West light rail station. We ordered drinks, which were both delightful, and an appetizer to start off. I had never had chaat before, but I will definitely be ordering it again. We picked the chicken tikka (classic) and the black dal. Both were easy to share, and I could not choose a favorite. Really yummy! As it was a birthday celebration, we received a little dessert. So sweet! I really enjoyed my experience and will most definitely be back again.

This place is amazing! Lunch was only around $16 for Chicken Tikka Masala. The lunch portion comes with tomato soup to start and the Tikka Masala comes with huge portions of naan and rice. The lunch service is very quick and the staff are super friendly. Decor is colorful and fun. This is truly an awesome place to grab lunch! Mind you, the portion sizes will leave you a bit dozey if you're headed back to work.

This historic house which is now an Indian restaurant offers an interesting atmosphere. The indoor views were splendid, though it felt like the exterior could have used a new coat of paint. The menu has some distinctive items. My salad was extra crisp, but also really delivered on flavors with balls of goat cheese, apricots, and a peppery dressing making it clear this was an Indian salad. For an entree, I went for their traditional black dal, and added an aachari paratha. The dal was rich, and the bread, which is cooked with the spices they use for pickling vegetables, was an interesting and distinctive contrast. I was surprised they didn't seem to offer much in terms of non-alcoholic drink options (their wine list was certainly extensive). There were a couple of vegan options but I was happy with what I got and happy I came hungry.

My first time at Copper, celebrating a friends birthday! There's a parking lot on the side (there were still a few spots available at 6:30pm on a Sunday) and street parking if needed. They were extremely busy! Waited a bit for a host to come out, but once they did we were seated for our reservation right away! All of the staff was so friendly and very prompt with refilling water, which we thoroughly appreciated. Meals come with rice, naan costs extra if you are wanting it. The tikki masala was delicious! The tofu vegetable kesari was very light, minty, and refreshing. For my friends birthday they brought out a cute coconut ice cream with gulab jamon on top. Would love to go again!

Amazing food! We love Indian cuisine and this place came highly recommended by a friend. Dining area is various rooms of a historic house. It's such a romantic, intimate setting. We loved all the menu options and hated to narrow it down. Streetside parking was super easy to find. Our server was very attentive when we saw her. The drink service was very slow. We will go back anyways though and hope it was just a fluke.
