Imagine someone who has never made Indian food before & makes some, That's what this tastes like. I kept telling myself while eating this'this is terrible'. The place is dirty, the staff is rude, portions are small & they buy Costco nan bread. I was super hungry & not picky but now I'm scared of what is going to happen to me in a couple of hours.

This place was a recent discovery while I was walking through the MURAL Festival, & what a find it was. I wish I had photos to share, but you'll just have to take my word for it… everything was absolutely delicious.

The samosas are a must-order. They come with a spicy date chutney & a refreshing yogurt-mint sauce, both of which complement them perfectly. We also tried the potato patties topped with chickpeas, similar to aloo gobi chaat?, but elevated with caramelized onions & sweet pickled cabbage that added incredible flavor & texture.

What makes this spot even better is how affordable it is, especially considering its prime location. The staff were incredibly kind, welcoming, & genuinely passionate about what they do, which made the experience even more enjoyable.

& don't even get me started on the mango lassi. It was absolutely decadent: rich, refreshing, perfectly sweet, & tasted completely natural with no artificial flavors. At only $4, it might just be one of the best deals in the city.

I highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area. It's the kind of place you'll want to come back to again & again.
Reminded me of the indian street food I had in Bangkok, Thailand.
