    The garlic naan is possibly the best naan that I have had in Seattle. One is good for 2 person since every plate of curry comes with rice. Love their butter masala!

    Everything is good here! Tasty stuffed naan, curries, and the portions are large. They served us a Pakora appetizer and mango cheesecake dessert gratis! I'd recommend reservations on a weekend.

    Some of the best Indian food in Seattle. Although the pandemic has been generally bad for restaurants, it prompted Taste of India to add a lot of covered outdoor seating. Far easier to get a seat now!

    Definitely worth visiting when you're around, or even when you're not. With Daawat Indian restaurant shares 1st place on my best Indian restaurants in Seattle list.

    I would be satisfied with just the bottomless chai and mango cheesecake, but they had to pop my buttons with delicious curries, too! Try the spiced Tandoori chicken, if you want a less dense dish

    So good. They gave us a free app and free dessert for no reason! The naan is MASSIVE and yummy. Chicken Tikki Masala was superb, so were the beef samosas. Definitely will be back.

    Holy Bottomless Chai! A perfect place to sit outside and chat with friends, especially if two of you just went through breakups and the third's estranged husband has lung cancer. Really lovely Sun am.

    The service was great and the food was phenomenal! We ordered food to share and took home so much for leftovers. The leftovers were great!

    The chai tea is a must and you get free refills. The chile naan is also pretty good but it's hard to go wrong with anything you order here

    This place is incredible. Hands down the best Indian food I've had in Avery very long time. Service was spectacular, as well.

    Amazing service!! I don't think I was able to get my water or chai tea past 3/4 full without getting it refilled. They gave us a complimentary appetizer and dessert! New favorite Indian restaurant!

    My favorite Indian food in Seattle. Try the iced chai, and they make a great saag. Naan is huge, so order accordingly.

    This place is awesome. Reasonably priced, and they give you a different free starter and desert each time you come. Their naan is amazing as well!

    Probably my favorite Indian place in Seattle. Lots of freebies, fast service, and great for groups. Tends to be on the milder side, so def ask for medium hot and above if you want to feel the spice.

    Best butter paneer and butter chicken in town. 1 Naan is enough for 2 people. Bottomless chai is amazing!

    The Butter Chicken Masala at Taste of India is served with a buttery masala sauce that finishes the dish smoothly with its rich combination of fresh cream and tomato puree. Read more

    This particular Indian spot has some of the most authentic chai outside of being in India in Seattle.

    As an Indian man and someone who has tried virtually every Indian joint in town, I can safely say this is the best and most consistent hands down. (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

    Still my favorite Indian restaurant in the city. Too bad I live in Lynnwood or I'd come by more often!

    Bottomless Chai Tea, amazing Indian cuisine, plus if they ask for a dessert menu, say no, and they'll give you dessert anyway!

    Good food, environment is a little spooky. Way too many people are working and they end up watching you the whole meal.

    Went because of the reviews. Only ordered stuff from the tandoor (clay oven) and it wasn't good at all. Also the salad (lettuce, onions, carrots) had stale, old produce. Will not repeat.

    High five if you get to the bottom of your water glass. If you're thirsty, this is the place to be.

    If you want to branch out from tikaa masala, but want that rich, creamy curry flavor, try chili madras masala.

    The tandoori salmon is wonderful. And the chai is bottomless. Regulars are offered free appetizers and dessert.
