Food is good, yet, they never ever get the order right in al of the times I have been coming here. Not to mention the food always comes out of the kitchen at random times. Love the people and food
Serious EatsApril 29, 2014The Kati roll is the unofficial signature dish of this restaurant, specializing in Indian street food.
Fergus NolanJanuary 7, 2019Love this place, food is awesome. There is little service in the place but the ambience is wonderful. This was my first trip to their new place
Brandon LeeAugust 29, 2017Great Indian food, overall not super spicy for the noobies. Great atmosphere among all things. If you're super hungry get the one of the Thali meals. Definitely the instagramy dish.
Ranu RajkarnikarMay 13, 2017Fast, inexpensive and delicious. The chaat was awesome. Curries are great, and the wine / beer list is solid. Wash it all down with some wine.
CharlottesJuly 25, 2017Most enjoyable meal I had in Portland. Fresh n tasty dishes - fried okra is amazing! - and fun friendly venue.
BommyAugust 9, 2017Plates are small so good for sharing. Gobi manchurian is amazing-basically fried cauliflower in sweet & sour sauce. SO GOOD.
Vada Pav, Papri Chaat and the Crispy Okra are amazing! Pav Bhaji is ok but I'm a Bombay guy and picky about that! Avoid the thali and Kati roll.- Shraddha NunziataJuly 6, 2014Pork vindaloo, okra, and chaat were great. Gobi and Kati rolls were sub par. I'm appalled at Troy MacLarty's claim that he saved me a trip to India (from his bio). Blech.
I could eat the Bhel Puri and Pork Vindaloo everyday. When the food comes out hot, it's unreal
Small plates are the best! Get some food to share and you can't go wrong.
Bobbie McLellanJune 18, 2018Kathi roll with beef was phenomenal. They also have different chilies to be added on the side.
The Kati roll is like an Indian burrito with paneer cheese. The Chicken curry meal is big, but well worth the upgrade.
StephanieFebruary 28, 2016Everything I've eaten here so far has been tasty. My favorites are the vada pav and paneer makhani.
Anna JamesJanuary 2, 2015Pork vindaloo is quite authentic,enjoyed it with rice. But why are pork pieces so big 😳. Was impressed by their version of Papdi chat; beware its spicy.
Memo S.August 8, 2016The food is good and true. Not as spicy as you would get in India but the essential flavors are there. Vada pav!
cami j.September 6, 2015the chicken curry was tender and delicious, and the pav bhaji made me feel like I was back in Mumbai.
Nina BrownOctober 12, 2014I'm not a vegetarian but this place can definitely make me become one. Love their spices and food textures.
H. Colbert (@hrsch)April 23, 2016Sweet potato chaat is where it's at. I especially liked the herbs and crunchy lentils.
- Flavorful and light dishes. The bhel puri and kati rolls are both great.
Eli TaylorAugust 30, 2018Delicious food. Not terribly spicy but they have some condiments you can add to boost the heat!
David ZhouJanuary 1, 2016Nothing here is spicy enough to be authentic (ahem white people), but you can get some hot sauces near the water and bussing station

Harsha NagarajuMay 29, 2017The interior is great but Very very overrated food. We ordered six dishes from the menu and they were all terrible. The long wait for such food is ridiculous!

"Unique & awesome ice cream flavors and fresh waffle cones. You'll probably spend more time finding parking than you will waiting in line. The queue can be long, but moves quickly and staff are fast."
Dave Hendrix - 7.6
"Best fro yo in PDX! Both the vegan and dairy options are fantastic and inventive. Ask the servers about the toppings and combinations they know what they're talking about."
Renae Bucher - 8.8
