What You'll Get
Although Columbus famously "discovered" India by landing at Lexington and Concord and proudly ringing the Liberty Bell, the actual location of India remains a mystery. Today's Groupon offers the best lead the world has had in centuries with dining at The Cloves Indian Restaurant in Suwanee. Choose between the following options:
- For $10, you get $20 worth of authentic Indian dinner fare.
- For $5, you get $10 worth of authentic Indian lunch fare.
Tantalizing tongues with myriad mouthwatering options, The Cloves' satisfying sustenance bears all the spicy and hearty hallmarks of authentic Indian cuisine. Lunch-seekers entering its spacious and soothing dining room may queue for the lunch buffet ($7.99 weekdays, $9.99 weekends), which boasts bottomless, piquant portions to satisfy a small family or one globally minded grizzly. Those siding with succinctness may support the vegetable Pulao ($7.99), basmati rice co-mingling with carrots and peas. Daredevil dinnertime denizens may dive into the chicken Madras ($10.99), poultry chunks and hot spices simmered in a zesty chennai sauce, or sample the shrimp fried rice ($9.99), a dish first cooked by self-deprecating crustaceans. Plentiful platters easily pair with sides of garlic nann ($1.99) or mango chutney ($0.99), ensuring no blushing entree enters the belly unchaperoned. In addition to savory staples, The Cloves offers a variety of wines and beers and proudly serves Halal meat.

About The Cloves Restaurant
The Cloves Restaurant's menu showcases the cooking techniques and ingredients that have come to define the cuisine from both the country's northern and southern states. A clay tandoor oven bakes marinated meats, skewered vegetables, and soft naan, and liberal doses of saffron, fenugreek, and ginger paste add their distinctive south asian piquancy to entrees. These flavor combinations inundate multiple taste buds, oftentimes in the same bite, as in the case of the tomato-based vindaloo sauces laced with fiery chilies and tangy vinegar.
Immense floor-to-ceiling windows flood the dining area with natural light, helping the curvaceous track lighting and dangling pendant lamps illuminate the dangling uvulas of laughing diners. Taupe-hued walls stand in stark contrast to the dark tables and flooring, and they remain relatively unadorned except for a smattering of Indian-influenced paintings.
