“ The fries were hot and very nice with the masala on top. The Palak patte ki chaat was really good!!! Aloo paneer Kathi roll was okay - it was bland and spicy. ”
“ I usually get their kathi rolls or something quick! This time we got their 7 course desi garden experience which was delicious and definitely worth it. The lamb flauntes were amazing. I have never had anything with beyond meat before but the beyond meat quesadillas were my favorite dish. The churros were a great end to the whole experience, left me wanting more! ”
“ First off, gotta start by saying you can already smell the inviting, savory goodness from a block away. This is my go-to spot for dinner. I usually order the chicken biryani or the Tikka masala (I'm basic). The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is very homey. The owners are hands-on with their restaurant and are well-spoken and personable. Also, their Panipuri is delicious. It is a perfect snack, and I order it even if I have home cooked dinner ready. Their new item, which was the Chili paneer samosa- I don't particularly like vegetarian filling, but this was a 9/10. It was fried to perfection, slightly spicy but packed with flavor and aromatics. ”
“ The food were soooo good. The 2 Vada Pav served and tasted like vegan sliders. The kathi roll may be smaller compare to a regular burrito but its just the right size so you can order other scrumptious options. The mango lassi I wished it was bigger tho cuz its so good and thick. Highly recommended for some quick and easy no frill Indian food craving fix. Outdoor seatings available. ”
“ This place is delicious! Their pani puri is so delicious that sometimes my husband and I have to pick it up even though we make dinner already.I am such a sucker for the kathi rolls When I want a quick lunch. Super convenient place to place an order and pick up for dinner or lunch. And the owner is literally the sweetest woman ever. She is always so nice to my husband ”
“ Great variety of Indian quick bites. Happy to see them try to create a tasting menu blending Mexican and Indian quick bites (so NYC, so Cinco de Mayo, so tasty). If the tasting menu returns and/or if I would recommend 1 item to try it would be the pico de gallo pani puri. ”
“ Today was a great day. Why? Because I found the best Indian food I've ever had in my life. In my life. I was working in the area and was looking for some Mediterranean food and this place was the first recommendation, along with a photo of something called "Desi Poutine." So that drew me in. And oh my god. I just found my new comfort food. I will walk across the city for their Desi Poutine. I'm hooked. In addition to the poutine, I tried the Vegan 7 Vegetable Kathi Roll with Curried Carrots, Bell Peppers, Onions, Tomatoes, Green Peas, Broccoli & Cauliflower. Delicious! I'm hooked on this place and I need to find reasons to come to the neighborhood now. ”
“ Super good value and tasty. The chaat, saag chana, and beyond kathi rolls are my favorite. The saag chana is always the first thing I eat when I come home from a trip, and I get two meals out of it. Recommend the roll/fries/drink special and now rolls are 20% off on Saturdays. Support our neighborhood businesses! ”
