    Worst Indian food ever. Clear instructions: no seafood in platter. But got shrimps anyways. Undercooked meat. Small portion size & Overpriced. Tasteless. Never going to order from this restaurant ever again. 4 paneer pakoras for the price of 9.99$. You kidding me? What a rip off and what a shame you guys are representing “ Indian cuisine “. Beware if you ordering it for delivery.

    Super dissapointing. We were excited by the idea of an Indian Lamb Wrap. I was thinking chunks of Marinated Lamb. Not the case. Little bits of cold ground lamb, not well seasoned, and mostly full of lettuce. This had the potential to be amazing if done right. I was thinking it would be an Indian Fusion genius idea. Unfortunately far from it. I could make this better at home. Our waitress was decently nice. But when my friend advised that he couldn't eat it and that is was not good. She offered to charge him half, instead of taking off the bill. Seemed like they take alot of shortcuts and are there to make money, not put out exceptional food.

    I order this restaurant through Uber, the portions are tiny. The butter chicken only had 1/2 the container with actual chicken it was like a soup. The lamb wrap only had less than 40% meat. My full order fit in a tiny brown bag Quite disappointed for 4 items I paid $80

    ****Food coloring that tastes…. Ok**** Went there after riding 100 miles from Seattle, so everyone in the group were super hungry. tiramisu for dessert was basically frozen and ice bits. There was lots of color in entrees, it stuck with us for 2 days Tamarind margarita lacked taste of tamarind Veggie naan was actually decent but not really worth $11. All in all… ok…May not come here again.

    Very delicious! A lot of the previous reviews commented that portions were small, but they were exactly what I expected. For two people we ordered 2 curries and 1 order of naan - we left stuffed!

    Oh my goodness. The best Indian food ever! The service was also fantastic. Probably the best around. We thoroughly enjoyed the butter chicken, mango lamb, garlic naan, and roti. They were very accommodating and helpful when it came to dairy free options for my daughter, and overall loved having my happy and loud toddler in the restaurant. I really wish we lived closer so we could be frequent customers! I never leave reviews, but after having such a positive and delicious experience I knew I needed to publicly support them!

    This was not my first time dining here. I really liked Naan and Brew before my visit last night. I've never had such a terrible experience at a restaurant before in terms of service. The man who seated us was very pushy and made it very clear he wanted us to choose quickly, eat quickly, and get out quickly. It was almost comical and unreal. I didn't feel welcome. The food is decent, but I make my own Indian dishes at home and their dishes definitely had food coloring in them. Also, one naan is enough for two people. You do not need more than one, but the man will try to up-sell you.

    Such good food. Our order: veggie pakoras, paneer Tikka masala (or butter chicken), lamb vindaloo, and Daal Tarka. Also love Aloo Gobi and Eggplant Bharta. Great service and beer selection. Pro tip = get the pakoras WITH your meal (rather than an app) so you can dip them in the curry. The ambiance needs some conscious thought, so just know that you're not getting a quiet, romantic, or cool vibe.

    Our worst food at an indian restaurant. We ordered wraps (chicken and paneer) for us, and it was just cold naan, cold meet, unflavored paneer and some lettice thrown together. I asked for spicy sauce, and they gave me watered down red peper powder, no salt and charged me $1.5 for that!!! This is not indian food, india is known for its spices, and mind you I didnt find a single spice/flavour in that wrap. I really hope the owner reads this and takes the wraps out of the menu. Worst worst. What did they give us for kids tandoori chicken ? Red food colored dry chicken and two spoons of rice???? My kid is 4 years old, and could easily eat twice that amount. Please do justice to the prices! The mint chutney also looked like it had more food coloring and less mint. Would never recommend this place to anyone. All of this for $50. Sorry not worth it

    Great food. I was pretty surprised honestly. I appreciate that when you ask for spice you get spice. It always feels like most places never make it hot. Service was decent, nothing to complain about. Drinks were good, honestly nothing super special, but tasty. I would definitely come back

    Really amazing food and incredible service here. I know a lot of reviews say the portions are small, but I happen to think they were the perfect size. It's not like its a ton of food for what it costs, but it filled me up really quickly and was SOO delicious. Angie our waitress was so kind and really helpful, and was an awesome waitress despite it being short staffed when we came in. Awesome experience eating here for my birthday today, and if I'm to offer any advice, it's make a reservation online before you come in! It's a popular place! The food I tried: garlic naan, vegetable stuffed nann, palak paneer, and another paneer dish. All amazing choices!

    Absolutely perfect. I came here a few years ago and the food was so good that this was my first stop when I returned to the area. The food is amazing, the service is great, and overall was just a really good experience. Tried out multiple dishes and was not disappointed in the slightest.

    Photo of empty-half eaten plate because it was SO GOOD I didn’t even think to take a photo before diving in…excellent dishes, great drinks, wonderful service (we even came during a rush and it was all perfect and timed well) and you MUST get naan!!! This place does it right!

    It’s a nice place to stop by if you really want Indian food Service was okay not much we could have asked for Portions are very small and for the high price you don’t really get much

  • 5/5 Kelly L. 1 year ago on Google
    Ordered takeout and it was amazing! Super authentic and fast. I know some other reviewers mentioned to portion sizes being small but we had leftovers. Honestly I think the portions just appear small in the togo containers they packed it in, but once in the bowl it was more than enough. Ordered curry chicken, butter chicken and garlic naan. We will definitely be back.

  • 5/5 Elliot H. 1 year ago on Google
    Some of the best Indian food I've ever had. Every single dish I've tried so far has been outstanding. The garlic naan is perfect. My favorite dish so far is the mango curry, it's sweet and savory and packed with flavor. 10/10 recommend this place.

    We were so blown away by their samosas (see picture) that I forgot to take pictures of the rest of the food. It was SO DELICIOUS!!! Vegan and non-vegan options. Their food reminded me of a small village Cafe in Southern India that I ate at almost every day while there in February 2020. I eat a LOT of Indian food here in the states, and this is one of my favorites. We shared the veggie samosas. The flavor was out of this world good. My partner got the garlic Naan and a paneer dish. I got vegan roti and Chana Masala. All of it was incredible.
