The restaurant is under new management now. The owner is chef as well, I ordered masala dosa and papri chat, the taste was spot on and delicious. The only thing that got 4 stars is the amount of time it took to take and get the orders. Taste wise 5 stars

The food at Shaukin is the best Indian food in town, but they are extremely bad at keeping time. I learnt a lesson in the beginning when the management changed when I ended up waiting a hour for my food. So now I call and place an order. BUT, the problem is they say 15-20 mins and I leave accordingly but I still end up waiting an average of 30 mins after I reach the place!!!! This is completely unacceptable waiting that long samosas! You need to improve your wait time DRASTICALLY or at least be honest with the wait time. This is unacceptable.

Weida is the worst. I would go into their office to talk to them about a problem I was having and have them tell me one thing. Then have them call/email, or I would talk to them about why the problem hadnt been resolved, and have them tell me something else, and deny that they had told me the first thing. This ended up costing me money for things that werent my fault to begin with. For example when I moved in, the locks on my window didnt work. I complained and was told not to worry, they would fix it when I moved out. Which is illegal. They have to give you a way to secure the windows and doors on your apartment. Despite constantly complaining, they never fixed the windows and then tried to charge me for breaking the locks when I moved out. Then theres the fact that they dont keep up with building maintenance, such as snow removal, salting when there is ice, fixing outside lights, keeping the washers and dryers in working order. I slipped and fell after an ice storm because they never put down salt or anything else to combat the ice. When you complain about any of this, the office will blow you off and try to galight you about it. When you move out they will do everything they can to keep you money. Ignore the move out checklist they give your, theyll charge you for cleaning even if you follow it step-by-step. You can appeal, but they will ignore the cleaning part of your appeal. When you turn in your keys, make sure you do it in person, and get a receipt. If you dont, they will claim you never retuned it and try to charge you. I suggest making them walk through the apartment with you when you move out so that you can get them to sign something saying that the apartment was left in good repair. I know the apartments are cheap, but the headache of dealing with Weida isnt worth it. Spend the extra cash and get a landlord with morals.

Theres a serious lack of hygiene. The restaurant is dirty and staff too. Im sure this restaurant will fail, if it have health inspection. The food tasted okay, however I will stay away from the uncommon meals as I think it might be contaminated. Plus the prices are higher then normal, as of April 2018 all the meals start st $10.99.

Absolute trash food. The management changed once again. Sambhar tastes like spicy hot water with some Dal thrown in it. The rice is plain and begging for spices. Undercooked paneer and vegetables. The salad looks like leftover vegetables from Sharma's kitchen. Save your money. Not a biased review. Unless they employ a real cook, it's not worth going here.

Let me begin by saying that I absolutely love the food here. It is one of the most authentic Indian food places in town. But whenever my friends and I try to come here for lunch, they are not open! I called yesterday evening to confirm that they were going to be open at 1PM this afternoon. But when we got there at 1:10PM today, the doors we locked and no staff inside. In fact, from what we could see through the front door, even the kitchen light did not seem turned on! Please share you actual hours with the customers...

Good Indian food, quality has improved by so many folds! Only one small let down is service is extremely slow and has to improve if they want more customers! This is probably the one place students go to for South Indian food so I would say, it is not extremely student-pocket friendly!

I went with a friend to Shaukin today and ordered a Mysore Masala Dosa. We were served a dosa with pav bhaji stuffing, which clearly is not what we ordered. We asked to meet the chef to raise our objection. After an excruciatingly long wait, the chef came out to see us. We told him that what he served us wasn't Mysore Masala Dosa. He was vehemently unapologetic, condescending and arrogant. He attempted to brush away his mistake. I repeatedly pointed out that he's wrong, to which his best responses were "This isn't Mysore" (Thanks, Captain Obvious), "I've been in the industry for 15 years and I know what Mysore Masala Dosa is" (No, you don't), "I served you food" (Really, is that the bar we're setting?), "Next time, ask me beforehand what you want and I'll give you" (Well, I'm not asking you for anything special. I'm asking you to serve me what I ordered). All through that interaction, he maintained a smug air, pretended like it's my mistake and that he was tolerating me despite my audacity to point out his mistake. To summarise: you may/may not get what you ordered. If you don't know Indian food, you'll probably be served something that tastes like Indian food, but you there is no guarantee what you're served... because, and I quote: "I say I serve Butter Chicken and I serve something good". PS: The wait times.. oh! the wait times. Get a book or two to pass time while you wait.

I moved out in May 2017 (i just got done filling out a survey for my current apartment building and was reminded of this hell hole). The office staff was mostly good. I'm not trying to generalize but basically everyone was nice EXCEPT the older women. My roommate said they were nice to her but my god they were so rude to me for no reason. Unfortunately these women are the ones you will deal with most of the time. Also don't both calling their number because they will not pick up and you will hear the voicemail redirect you to another number that will not pick up. I lived above their old office (the one on Northwestern across from the fire station) so I had a little bit of a different experience than most. (I know you remember me Weida women). So mid February 2017 they gave us 2 weeks to move out because March 1 they were going to start TEARING DOWN THE BUILDING. My roommate and I only found out because we went down to ask a random question, and they were like "oh by the way"... They said they were going to tell us soon but two weeks?? Seriously?? And they had the audacity to contact me before March 1 multiple times to ask when I was getting the last of my stuff. Yes they saved us an apartment two blocks away, but during midterm season during both of our last semester of senior year, we didn't have time for that. Plus the new apartment was MUCH smaller. My roommate had to take furniture home. I couldn't do that so I had to cram everything in and keep stuff on the porch (that got rained on so then it was thrown away). They shouldn't have let us renew our lease the previous summer is there was even a CHANCE of that happening (they had to of known this was in the plans). My roommate and I only renewed because the thought of moving sounded absolutely horrible.. the stairs in that building were pure torture for moving. I put on a happy face to them because I was scared of getting charged by them when we moved out. But that was such a horrible experience. Luckily we didn't get charge for anything stupid like others did but I think that's because they tore our building down with little notice. I highly doubt you would have to deal with that situation but the fact that they even did it to us (we were the only tenants in the building at the time) just shows you what kind of company they are.

I recently went to have lunch at Shaukin on a snowy day, knowing that it opens at 1 pm. We waited in the cold for 15 minutes and the restaurant did not open even at 1.20 pm. Unprofessional owner who does not even care to open the restaurant on time. There were other students as well who waited for like half an hour for the restaurant to open. The food is no doubt good there, but the service is pathetic. They also take 30-45 minutes to bring the order.

The joint has very good Indian and Indo-Chinese food. But you need to be very clear while specifying the spice level, or you could end up with extremely hot food. Most of the food comes in extremely generous portions; 2 orders are sufficient for 3 people looking for a good meal. But a few things bring the ratings down - the service is woefully slow and there seems to be just the one server at the front of the restaurant. There's also that annoying door that just wont close all the way! It was snowing the evening we decided to visit and every time someone walked in, a blast of cold air hit us. The store owners need to fix the door and the service issue in order to improve the meal experience for all of us!!

Average prices, slightly more expensive than other places around. The service is really slow though and it takes a long time to cook the food. Chicken biryani is good though, and they have a lot of spice which is good if you like that.

Average prices, great Chicken Tikka Masala. Probably the best Indian food in the area at this price point. Service can be slow, I have called ahead and been quoted 20 min., Showed up 25 min. later, only to wait another 10 min. for food.

Update to my old post. This place used to rock, but I've noticed some significant changes which reduce my rating: 1. Food takes forever, used to spend 30min here, no upwards of 2 hours. 2. Some items are missing or have changed flavor. For example, palak paneer has a different spice profile than before. 3. New staff seems unfriendly and a little out of touch with the community. 4. Pricing is higher than it used to be. Overall, the food is still good, but I highly recommend carry-out. Call ahead and expect 40 min cook time.

No idea how this place has such a high rating. India Mahal right across the street has far far superior food, a buffet option, and, here's the kicker, they will have your food ready at least 30 minutes quicker than Sai Shaukin. At my most recent experience (as a delivery driver) I sat in the lobby for a full hour, and the order was finally ready 1 hour and 27 minutes into the order. Maybe they are busy you ask? Nope. 5 total people in the restaraunt. 4 of which already had their food when I arrived. This is not a rare occurrence here at Sai Shaukin. This is 90% of the time. The restaraunt got taken over by new owners in the Spring, and they have no idea how to operate a restaraunt, especially one that advertises as "fast food".

Since change in ownership, have been there twice (both take out). Food tastes good, menu is expanded, BUT NOT WORTH THE PRICE. They just dont seem to understand. Completely taking advantage of a monopoly. I am sure others have noticed and will subsequently reduce their frequency of visits. If you want good Indian food (better than this), drive to Indianapolis. Its worth it. Some other major issues: 1. Several items on the menu were unavailable. 2. Serving sizes of the sambhar and chutney with dosa was abysmally small. 3. No problem charging high, but give the money's worth in quantity. Possibly the last time I will be visiting their restaurant.

This place was alright. I was slightly disappointed with the rice cakes in spicy sauce. My wife and i felt that the sauce was too watery. The spicy pork wad really good. We also got the spicy noodle soup with squid and mussels which was good as well. The food was spicy, but not too overwhelming.

Great place to meet friends after work for a drink. The owners and staff are extremely knowledgeable for all things beer (and ciders too!). We like the rotating on-tap options and options for 4oz glasses (hey, it's hard to commit to a whole pint of new beer, lol). They only serve $50 ramen there, but you can BYOF. Cheers!

First off, the food is good. Read the other reviews for more detail. That said, I had a random chance to hear the owner give a talk to students. She is truly an inspiration. If for nothing else, support a local business, an entrepreneur, and someone who is truly an inspiration and worth supporting.

It is good food but you need to make sure if you want warm or cold food. They don't explain this to you and it is not detailed in the menu. So if you want warm food ask before ordering. The best option here is the noodles soup, the other options are not very good.

Decent vietnamese food, considering there isn't another vietnamese place in town. Once you come in you do realize that it's fairly authentic compared to rest of the restaurants. Pho is good and so are the egg rolls.

A great place to go with a big group! They have ample seating and have a huge beer menu that will appeal to everyone. The only downside of a constantly rotating menu is that I have found my favorite beer here and haven't had it again since they ran out. While they don't serve food, you are free to bring your own or have some delivered.

Great place - wish they had snacks of some kind like popcorn or pretzels, but the beer selection is awesome and they have something for everyone. Also they have beer shakes - What a great concept. Had just one and would love to have more but sipping them isn't an option... Worth the trip

I visit The Pint weekly on Thursdays, and sometimes more on a week they have beers I'm interested in trying. It has the most serene and chill-out atmosphere of any bar on either side of the bridge. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly, which is a major reason I continue to visit time and time again. The board lists all that they have available at the time of arrival and lists the name, ABV, IBU and cost for either a pint or 4 oz size of beverage. Most importantly for me, they usually have 4-6 IPAs on tap, which allows me to determine if I'll like the brew and want to purchase more of it, or ultimately decide that while enjoyable, it's not my particular favorite.

Most the negative reviews seem to be from people who aren't used to the random way an international restaurant tends to be run. Yes they can be slow - relax and enjoy not rushing for once. There's a chance any local restaurant will be slow. Prices seem high for noodles and rice. But considering it is easy to drop $10 for a burger and $25 for a large pizza within half a mile it is sure easy to recommend Green Leaf. Food is very fresh and so tasty. Great flavors and variety of dishes, good selection of bubble teas, and quality ingredients that feel minimally processed and make for a filling and wholesome feeling.

Price is reasonable. Nice soup (free) for appetizer. Nice variety of Korean food. Taste is not exceptional but not bad as well. After you finish, you have to put your dishes away yourself.

I had a very bad experience with Weida apartments. I stayed there for few months and they deducted around $260 for cleaning the carpet and deposit fees. although i am 100% sure that apt was not clean when i moved there because i could see lot of pins in the carpet and lot of dustiness in the apt but when i told them after i moved they were not responding properly and arguing. the management told that they will review and get back to me but they didnt come back after sending lot of email they started responding. they are good for taking your money but not for return. no maintenance and very disappointing behavior. I would not suggest anyone to stay in their apartments. If you want to loos your deposit and not expecting any maintain ace then you can.

Awesome selection of beer that regularly rotates. One of my favorite (if not most favorite) places to go and drink great beer. Extremely friendly staff! Love the atmosphere and what it represents here. If I had to to pick one local business to keep, The Pint would be my first and second place.

For the past 2 years (Junior right now), I have been going there once a week for the Spicy Pork! It's the most amazing thing ever! I only wish that I did not have to go down all the way cuz its quite a walk, but always worth it! And you can always get extra pork for an extra dollar :)

Management is very unprofessional. They make it seem like any issue or concern you have is an inconvenience to them, and they do their best to blow you off and hope you will just ignore the issue. My roommate and I live on the 3rd floor and have had to report our A/C unit as broken 3 times now in the past 3 weeks. Rather than replace the old unit that clearly isn't working, they keep attempting to fix it every couple weeks, just for the unit to break again within a few days. We call as soon as the unit breaks to report the issue, and management is very rude over the phone. The last time we called it took maintenance an entire week to get out to our apartment and "fix" the A/C again. After this 3rd time, it still does not work and they continue to not give us a new unit. Very unsatisfied with the level of professionalism and respect by Weida Management.

I did a 12 month lease in a 1 bedroom apartment during the 14-15 school year on River road. First, the apartment that they gave me was dirty initially. I usually walk barefoot in my apartment and I distinctly remember the soles of my feet were pitch black (no exaggeration) from all of the accumulated dirt. Along with the first point, the second was that they took so much of my security deposit at the end for "cleaning fees". I honestly believe they didn't even bother cleaning my apartment because I did them a favor by cleaning and maintaining it while I was there. Third, I was on the ground floor and there were so many bugs in my apartment. I did my best the repel them but they even managed to get through. About the service, they didn't seem to really care about whether I was a tenant or not. I usually had to drop off my rent at their office (convenient because it was close to my classes) and they always had a long line. Overall, I would not recommend this landlord unless if you're desperate to find a place to live.

Maybe Evergreen Campus Rentals has learned something in the past 5 years, but I would not say "The management is HORRIBLE!". Dustin runs a tight ship. If anyone ever has an issue, they simply need to contact him. Also, any and all fees from a security deposit are written into nearly every lease, read them carefully. The most you'll pay for here, is carpet cleaning. My carpet was fresh and clean, my walls were well maintained, and appliances were fully functioning. In the interest of maintaining the living space for myself and future lessees, I see no issue in paying a portion of my security deposit. Great location too.

I rented from Weida Apartments for 3 years while I was in college at Purdue. It was the first company I scheduled visits with and being a first time renter I was a little anxious to take the leap from the dorms to off campus living. I could not have been more pleased with the experience I had renting from them. Maintenance requests were easy to make and the problems were fixed within the same day, very rarely did it take more than a day for someone to come out. Emails were answered promptly and the people there are always friendly. It can be intimidating to rent your first apartment but they really do what they can to make it a stress free experience. I'm so glad that I continued to rent from them for so long. Highly recommend!

Best Korean and Japanese food around town, and maybe even the state. Definitely the best I've had in a really long time. Food was delectable and there was free soup and water with purchase. The servers were very friendly, and the food came quickly. I would rate this restaurant ten out of five stars. And would recommend for any occasion.

The management is HORRIBLE! my roommates and I just received our security deposits back and were charged a ridiculous amount for things we didn't even damage (for example, we were charged for patching holes) They are in it for the money and will scam you if you aren't careful. This apartment looks nice from the outside, but you can tell it was built fast and cheap. Also, privacy is horrible. The landlord shows your apartment to future potential tenants without warning at all hours of the day. My roommates and I were caught in the showers, sleeping, changing, etc. DON'T RENT HERE
