    Great for a quick bite to eat, not really a sit down place. Got the "death by tikka" and it was quite delicious. Naan was a bit spongy for my taste, but still enjoyable. Would go back!

    The menu is pared down and hits all the right notes. The pani puri appetizer is delicious, and the chicken tikka masala bowl is awesome and is just the right size for lunch. Service is quick, too.

    Not always on the menu but if the Chicken Tikka Masala is too hot/spicy for you, ask for the Butter Chicken Tikka Masala - slightly more mild. Also, the Chicken Paneer is excellent.

    A little expensive, but the flavors are strong and the burritos are delicious. Definitely worth a try. Get your own water with the glass cups

    Tried Vada pav and it was good. It had bit more garlic though. Also website sucks a bit on foursquare or google map mobile app. Menu slides behind left hand frame making it difficult read

    The service is not always consistent, but the food is really good. My faves are the sexy fries with chicken tikka masala and the thali plate with chicken kadhai.

    Deconstructed samosa is a most try! The tika masala burrito was awesome, we tried chicken and paneer and both were yummy!

    The thali platter was great and shareable. The lamb saag was awesome if a little salty but the tofu tikka fell flat.

    The bar in back is gorgeous with a lit bartop and dim everything else. Fun fact - this used to be their storage area.

    Deconstructed samosas are awesome. Don't forget the bar in the back, Mortar & Pestal. Really cool drinks.

    If you like it SPICY ask for desi hot, or a side of desi sauce. Very good, and very spicy.

    Excellent vada-pav and guac sev puri. Guac sev-puri is not as filling though; only 5-6 puris per serving.

    The Indian burritos are great. None of the dishes are that authentic but it still tastes good regardless.

    The Sexy Fries are hella unhealthy, which means they're GOOD. Also get the Chicken Tikka Masala Burrito and Deconstructed Samosas.

    Great food! But my order is incorrect approx. 25% of the time, which is annoying.

    A food truck favorite at HT HQ for its spicy Indian fusion burritos. The Hella Hot will make you cry.

    If they have Fried Ravioli on special, get it with chicken tikka masala.

    Service can be really slow during lunch and dinner hours. Samosas are a bit too greasy, but vada pavs are good.

    Ordering ahead does you no good except make you wait in the same long line that all the dine-in orders are in. Ain't nobody got time for that!

    Disappointing. Service started out great but went downhill when my meal came out AFTER my dinner companion had finished his meal. No apologies and it was over cooked. Fail.
