The first thing I would like to point out is that people posting all these negative reviews have no clue what they are talking about. I have worked in restaurants and visit plenty of restaurants on a routine basis. It’s one of my top suggestions for people to try Indian food at its best. Look at those beautiful colors and those delicious ingredients. The food tastes better than it looks. Unlike other restaurants, I don’t leave feeling like garbage because the food here is made with high quality ingredients. If I were to open a restaurant, I would take Pondicheri as an inspiration, unlike others in this area that consider themselves pioneers in Indian cooking while all they are doing is recycling the same old garbage. Definitely ask for Jacob. You will have a great time with him and his excellent recommendations and conversation.

came in during happy hour. 5$ beer was great! as for the meal, the appetizers hit it out of the park and were my favorite. the pani puri was delicious, and the samosas were crunchy and great. the sweet potato samosa is my biggest recommendation. the butter chicken curry could have been seasoned more as a preference, heavy tomato taste. the frankie was good too, originally my fries did not come with a sauce but luckily the waiter noticed and came back quickly with the sauce. the chai pie was good. great service and good food.

Came out for dinner on a Saturday date night and it didn’t disappoint. Ordered two Thalis - a tapas style platter of small dishes. All the flavors worked together wonderfully and by the end we were full but not stuffed. Great atmosphere as well. Strongly recommend for upscale and sophisticated Indian cuisine

The happy hour at this place is great but brunch not so much. Having been to this place for brunch, lunch, dinner and happy hour - all menus except for the happy hour. Service was horrible and it took forever to get someone to clean the tables or take away dirty plates and food took way longer (almost 45mins) than it should The food is average and not worth the price you pay. $5 for a samosa that tastes like turmeric served with marinara sauce. The sambhar was actually tasty but was very thick. While the masala eggs were good the upma lacked flavor and could do with a bit more of salt and spices. Rest of the plates were average at best.

One of the best Indian fusion food Restaurant in Houston. It has wide variety of Indian food. Must try - Chickfu lettuce wrap / curry. Something different & innovative dish. Cocktails are amazing too. The restaurant has bakery class as well.

Highly recommend this place. The food is of great quality as well as quantity absolutely delicious you won’t feel bloated when you leave this place. Try their vegetarian/ vegan options.

I don't really know why I've never been to this restaurant before because it's been on my list for a while now. This is a must visit place with some amazing Indian food. We shared some samosas, the sweet potato one was so delicious!! I ordered a plate called the Texan, it had a variety of things on it including garlic naan, potatoes, lamb, stewed eggplant and lamb, a salad and butter chicken. I could not stop eating. I also got a couple of cocktails one called the blueberry sparkle and another one I can't remember the name... I was so stuffed I could not eat dessert but I got the Crack ball to the home. It is like a bite sized truffle. I will definitely be back!

I cannot say enough great things about this place. It’s literally a Houston staple!! The service is impeccable and the environment is absolutely a delight. Went this morning for chai and it was packed by the time I left so it’s very popular and for a good reason!!

I absolutely loved my experience here today! The staff was very helpful and educating! This was my first time eating Indian food and I am blown away! The ingredients tasted so fresh and clean! I am so satisfied and can’t wait to try more options on the menu!

The food is a creative vision of South Asian cuisine served in an upscale neighborhood restaurant. Trendy but casual. Kid friendly. Good sized helpings. Takes time for the food to be served as it is very clearly made fresh to order but the drinks menu helps to pass the wait time! Friendly staff. We will definitely be going again.

Hands down best indian fusion restaurant in Houston! Every time I go to Houston, I make a trip to this place to eat something whatever time of the day it is :) . The chef has elevated the indian cuisine and really enhanced the flavors while still maintaining the roots of the cuisine. Look at the menu it changes as chef is experimenting on deconstructing and reconstructing various foods. Look at the pictures, just looks so delicious, flavors are amazing to say the least! If you are searching for a bite to eat and in the neighborhood, it is a must visit

LOVED IT! I was impressed with the flavors in the dishes and the creative fusions implemented. Service was on point. It's the best Indian restaurant I've been to outside of in India itself! Helpful? Give a Thumbs up and join my followers.

Tried this place out for the first time on Saturday at a friend's recommendation. The food was SO GOOD. There's so much flavor and we received such a generous portion. We ordered the Lamb Ribs for 2 and I would definitely get it again. I even tried one of their cocktails and couldn't be more please.

Good food and service. Went with a few coworkers to this place. It’s a small venue but they have some good options. We had the pomegranate pani poori, earth thali, butter chicken, rose lassie, golden mule, and the honey blues cocktail. I would definitely recommend the pani pokey and the honey blues cocktail. Both are very refreshing. The butter chicken wasn’t as flavorful as my normal but the creamy fenugreek and tomato garam masala was delicious. There didn’t seems to be to many parking spots and they are metered parking.

Pondicheri is a modern Indian restaurant located in the River Oaks district of Houston. It is known for its creative takes on traditional Indian dishes, as well as its vibrant atmosphere and friendly service. I recently visited Pondicheri and tried the following dishes: Appetizer: Mango pani puri Entrees: Saag paneer and stuffed mushrooms Dessert: Lychee-based cocktail The mango pani puri was a flavorful appetizer but a little too sweet. The saag paneer was hearty and satisfying, and the stuffed mushrooms were cooked perfectly. The lychee-based cocktail was sweet and refreshing, Overall, I had a great experience at Pondicheri and would definitely recommend trying Pondicheri once.

We had a great time there. Arrived while happy hour was going on... good drink specials. All the cocktails we tried were great. Service was fun and totally helpful - our waiter had great command of the menu. Really nice to see vegetarian and vegan options marked on the menu. Lots of choices for all dietary types. All dishes were very inventive... The flash fried okra appetizer was so good, as were other appetizers. For main dishes... I'd say we liked about 1/2 the dishes, other 1/2 were just ok. But still give props for trying the new twists on Indian food.

The place was unique. Loved the atmosphere. Our waiter tried to meet all my dietary restrictions and was very kind. Food was fresh and flavorful. My husband had the sayel lamb and I had shrimp kebabs with a gluten free naan that was absolutely delicious. We ordered hot herbal tea that were soothing and delicious and made with fresh herbs.

Kinda pricey. The tandoori chicken wings are SPICY! Beware!!! What kind of pepper were used? Omg!! The butter chicken and the lamb were good. Skip the paneer (I’m partial to paneer anyway) and the naan(was too thin and had too much fennel, I expected a more buttery garlicky taste). The paratha was ok- was more of a chapati though but still was better than the naan. We liked the drinks and they photograph well.

I had a layover in Houston, therefore I tried Pondicheri, and I must say lots of good veggie option, and it seems people were enjoying the non-veggie options as well. Definitely a 10+ in my book.

really I like this place so much the stuff were cheerful and helpful the food was delicious

My husband and I have been eating at Pondichori’s for a few years now. It’s been consistently excellent. We are vegetarian. They have a lot of options. We love all of them but I especially love the chili lettuce wraps and the vegetarian Frankie. Their cookies are delicious too. The Chili cookie that’s a spicy chocolate chip cookie is my favorite.

I am never disappointed with the quality of the food and the interesting spin on Indian food here. I love the use of fresh ingredients and they have good outdoor seating during covid times. Try the Thalis which I recommend especially the vegetarian options are great.

I love Pondicheri! In this case I was upstairs in the bakery. Quaint. Everything was fresh. The staff is very respectful. Would definitely recommend. And that avocado 🥑 toast. 🤤

The most disappointed turn around on the flavors and menu options, specially for to go orders. The combination of flavors make lentils and parathas nonedible (to mention some examples). I am very sad because this was my favorite Indian restaurant for years. The pandemic has really impacted Pondicheri Restaurant, not only on the food flavors but on the overpricing of this non favorable experience. If you want to remember some nice flavors and the positive experience from years before just try the bake lab which remains more consistent with the posh Indian cuisine that Pondi used to promote. Sorry for this review!

I have been dining at Pondicheri since I moved to Houston in late 2012. It’s the most unique fusion Indian restaurant I’ve ever come across. If you’re Indian and looking for classic Indian food that you’re used to back home (like in the Mahatma Gandhi District of the Hillcroft area of Houston), this is not the place for you. It’s located in the West Ave luxury apartment complex, and there’s a private parking garage nearby with free parking. They have indoor seating and a large outdoor patio seating area if you’re trying to socially distance. If coming for food, the first floor provides full meals, but if you’re looking to chill and grab a coffee, the Pondicheri Bake Lab on the second floor is the place to go with a completely different vibe. I love to get a thali platter when going to Pondicheri since you can eat the most variety within one plate. I usually order the Morning Thali Platter for $15 which comes with uppma, sambar, saag, potato cake, fried egg, carrot paratha, and lamb keema. This is all very delicious. Most Indian people will say Pondicheri is too expensive and doesn’t taste “authentic.” Like I mentioned, go to the Mahatma Gandhi District if you’re looking for classic Indian food. Pondicheri is upscale Indian food and catered to all demographics to enjoy. I highly recommend this place!

Went here for a dinner with a friend and everything was great! The service was smooth and everyone I came in contact with were generous and eager to help. We shared the Sindhi Pakora Chat and lettuce wraps for the appetizer. For main course I had Frankies carrot roti wrap with the cauliflower and chikfu. My friend had the aviyal curry which was my other choice. We shared them as well and both were flavorful and satisfying. I had the Shakti Tisane (fresh herbal tea) after dinner which was aromatic and a delightful ending. Next time I go, I'll try the chai pie. Can't wait.

Main restaurant is downstairs and a bakery/cafe is located upstairs. This modern Indian food restaurant was a nice surprise. Warm and inviting atmosphere with great music selection. They also offer patio seating. There is also a bar inside the restaurant. The food was bursting with flavor and every dish was a hit. We will definitely be back for more.

I really enjoyed the food, particularly the Summer Korma. I had acidity the whole day and needed something alkaline for dinner, and this place had healthy options on the menu for most situations. What’s quite unique here, though, is the wall full of inspiring quotes. I enjoyed reading them while waiting to get seated.

Really enjoyed it. Food was superb. Ate outside. Weather was fantastic. We shared the ribs and they were maybe the best I've ever had. Spectacular drinks and the bread pudding was ok, just a different take on it.

First thing It’s not the typical indian restaurant. Loved it’s beautiful ambience and location. Healthy food. But their thalis are utter waste as they don’t have combinations in them. i tried weekend special aaram thali it had veg market curry very tasty but no rice or roti to go with. It came with paneer parata which actually needed a good achar but that was not there. It came with butter chicken n okra i was clueless y and what should i eat it with?? I loved their rose ladoo, mango lassi and their desserts like kulfi, guava ice cream. Something’s r hit n some r completely a miss.

Went here with a group of colleagues on a weekday for early dinner. They serve elevated Indian or fusion Indian food. The place was moderately full. The ambiance and the service were great! We ordered the masala chai, mango lassi, and jardin for beverages. The masala chai was underwhelming and wasn't as flavorful as you would expect for a cup of hot spiced Indian tea. The jardin was a mildly spicy refreshing mocktail and the mango lassi was also fresh, rich and refreshing. For appetizers we ordered the pakoras, mango paani puri and mushroom salad. The pakoras were crispy and fresh, nothing out of the world. The paani puri was interesting with the mango paani, but I prefer traditional paani puri over this one. The dressing on the mushroom salad was really good. For the entrees we ordered the butter chicken, saag paneer both of which were bland and underwhelming. I would have personally appreciated more flavor on these classics. The summer korma and fish curry were really flavorful. The breads - dosa and makai roti - that came with the curries were nice, light and fresh. For desserts we ordered the kulfi (one plate has 3 pieces) and the chocolate cake. The cake was really rich and the chocolate ganache balanced out the olive oil and almond flavors. The kulfi which is a frozen dessert (served like an ice cream bar) made from condensed milk, dried nuts, saffron etc. was really rich and flavorful and a perfect end to our meal. Would I go here again? Maybe, but I would order only a select few items like the fish curry, summer korma and the desserts.

Amazing meal - Was looking for a place to have a interesting vegetarian meal and found the perfect spot. Creative dishes with authentic flavors.

Very nice experience here. We went without a reservation but didn’t have any issues getting a table. Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu and offered us a lot of suggestions. I ordered the Texan thali since it gave me a chance to try a few different dishes. I enjoyed it, although was stuffed by the end and couldn’t even finish it. It was quite different that the butter chicken had a green chutney on top. Similarly, the lamb had some yogurt on top. I would say the shrimp was my favourite of all the dishes. The naan was cooked really well. Interestingly, the naan was made out of whole wheat instead of all purpose flour. For dessert, we got a saffron cheesecake to share. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t recommend that. Our server did mention that the chocolate cake is very popular, but it seemed weird to get that at an Indian restaurant (since there wasn’t anything Indian about it). They also have a bakery at the front which has some delectable looking treats. I got an assortment of cookies and shortbread to take home. I would recommend their bakery section! Overall was a great experience and I’d love to go back here if I’m in Houston again.

All around amazing dining experience. I am not a picky eater and I have no food allergies. It was a first time trying this particular type of salad and a Lamb Burger. Recommended by a new friend I made here in Houston and I will definitely be revisiting. Mildly busy in the evening but the waiter made sure to meet our needs and expectations in a timely manner. Very attentive and professional. I would recommend this restaurant to any group size of adults or even a solo outing. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did.

Met a colleague for lunch. Ordered at the counter, with food delivered to our shady patio table. The food was brought quickly and was very colorful and nicely presented. I had a vegan dish: red millet/rice/lentil dosa, with sauteed greens, chutney, avocado. Tumeric soup. Potato cake. The dosa was light and the greens perfectly cooked and seasoned. The chutney was sweet, although I didn't notice any pumpkin seeds. (small).My friend had the Workman thali, with aviyal, saag, marianated greens & carrot roti. Tumeric soup.

Delicious food with fresh, quality, locally sourced ingredients. Plenty of vegan options, and extremely friendly staff. Would definitely recommend the cooking and baking classes as well!

Nice place to sit down and enjoy a brunch with your loved ones ??

Creative take on Indian food with a great interior atmosphere and awesome cocktail drinks. Food isn't authentic Indian, but the flavors are done well and very savory. Been a customer for years and I always make sure to stop by the restaurant whenever I visit Houston. Customer service can be spotty at times, but they always make up in the food and drinks!

The customer service was excellent and the food was very tasty. Definitely something you don’t just find anywhere. I enjoyed the music that played throughout the day. It helped bring the ambience. Would come back.

Absolutely delicious! They were doing takeout and patio dining, we decided to sit outside. Got the Green Dosa and Texan Thali(like a sampler platter), a great mix of flavors, some elements of the Thali were pretty spicy, but it just kept me wanting to come back for more. A sizable portion for two people. Then followed it with the gluten free almond chocolate cake which was so amazing we ate the whole thing and could barely walk afterwards.. They also have a little market area with chutneys and other food items in the front. Highly recommend!

Ate here for breakfast and had the toaster, omelet, egg dosa, French toast, and morning thalis. All were good. Thalis can feed two. Pondi latte and masala chai were super good.

Brilliant take on Indian food. Every Indian dish is created with a twist and they are spot on with the flavors. Their menu changes frequently. Have tried the Earth thali, Pav Bhaji, Mumbai Toast, Pakoras, Pepper and Plum salad and all the drinks. Every dish turned out to be better than the previous one. Highly recommend.

I had been here before and had forgotten until today, how much fun this menu is!

I really like this place! When in the area, we always try to go there. Food is delicious, love all the spices! I like the modern twist on traditional indian dishes, I like their decor and lively atmosphere

I went there. The food is alright. The waiter didn’t remember anyones orders. Missed a lot of the items. At the end of the meal, we all had to split the bill because he didn’t know who ordered what. I had to pay $30 bucks even though I just ordered an entree. Food is overpriced for the taste. Took FOREVER to get the food. Just over all mismanagement is what makes it so terrible. The food isn’t worth it.

Very average Indian food. We had Avial and Egg dosa. Expensive for the quality. If you want real Indian food go to a real Indian restaurant in Sugarland.

Interesting Indian restaurant with some fusion items on the menu. The staff is friendly and service, prompt. We had the Vishnu platter and the pickle pizza with Shishito peppers. The platter was decent but if you want a more authentic South Indian dosa experience, go to Hillcroft ( little India). The pizza was unique and worth checking out - it was tangy. Outdoor seating available. Ample free parking in the attached lot.

Everything we ordered was great. But I was upset because they have not been serving Caramel Jaggery Cake. I hope they bring it back. If Management reading can someone please tell when the cake will be back? It used to be delicious.

Delicious food, patio dining, great atmosphere and service?

I would say take a flight to Pondicherry eat there and come back. It will probably be cheaper than eating in this place. Ambience is good and food was alright. Wouldn't call it authentic. This place is a rip off. I paid $41 for this and ended up throwing quite a bit from thali.

(Translated by Google) I quite liked the restaurant the food is quite good without a doubt excellent service provided by the restaurant the food is quite good, the waiters are quite attentive to us, they took great care of us without a doubt, the place was very clean I liked it (Original) Me gusto bastante el restaurante la comida esta bastante buena sin duda alguna un excelente servicio que nos brinda el restaurante la comida esta bastante buena, los meseros son bastante atentos con nosotros, nos atendieron de maravilla sin duda alguna, el lugar estaba muy limpio me gusto

Amazingly delicious food! The drinks were just as great! Can never go wrong with anything off their menu!

I like very much eating all their dishes. The dishes are always good, the service towards the visitors is good. I often go to this restaurant and I was never unsatisfied. I recommend it with no hesitation!

Always delicious. Wish they’d have a few more vegan options, but the ones they do offer are great! Good coffee.

I would recommend the pizza and to sit outside and enjoy a nice evening

My family and I have been coming to Pondicheri every Sunday and some days during the week since 2012. There is something about Pondicheri that is hard to describe - it’s like home away from home. The food is delicious, the atmosphere is comfortable, and the bake lab upstairs has the best desserts in Houston. But one of the reasons it is so special to us is the people who work here - Juan, Stephen, Armando, James, Francisco and all others we haven’t named. They welcome us each time with smiles, humor, and enthusiasm; they know what we like to eat; and they are kind and funny. Pondicheri is truly fortunate to have them! We will always wish these people happiness and success in everything they do. The Makris Family.

Guys, in this photo is $33 of Saag Paneer and Seafood Stew next to a set of keys. It tasted good, but 15$ of saag paneer that's smaller than my hand and had literally 2 pieces of cheese in it.. It is not even kinda filled and you can see from the cup we didn't scoop any out. Smelled great on the car ride home and we were excited to eat, but $40+ after tip and this was depressing.

Food wasn’t worth the price. Flavor was good. For a dine-in experience it might be worth it, but it did not translate well to take-out. Imagine paying $18 for the small paper pint cup on the left (photo), and $16 for the right. Also there was a 5% service fee for all take-out orders.

Doesn't matter what's going on in the world when you pondicheri

Been here a couple of times and had take out once. The food is really good. Love the duck kofta and lamb keema, carrot roti. The reason for three stars is the staff and service. They can be borderline rude.

Incredibly amazed by the outstanding service! Ordering take-out during COVID times, we were surprised to find an extra treat in our order! This wonderful generosity (during these times in particular) really raises my spirits! THANK YOU PONDI!

Amazing flavors and gluten friendly.

Good food and ambience

Amazeballs . i love everything there

Nice food, will go again and post pictures.

This isn’t Indian food from any angle. Just the India inspired names and spices, I ordered Pav Bhaji and it was Masala mixed vegetable with excessive turmeric and oil, bread that was nowhere close to a Pav. Ghee toast was a disappointment as neither ghee was ghee not the toast was toast!! Madras coffee was nowhere close to it. Yes but orange juice was delicious

Good indian food in the area. Good ambiance. I felt like lunch prices were a little high compared to service though. Still, would go back.

Food and Service... everything was great

Nice place to spend time

Laid back spot, free garage parking, with outside seating. The lunch and all day breakfast menu will keep you on your toes just make sure you palate and mind is open to some unique and wonderful combinations, like the pea flour fried chicken! The heat on this dish, from the spices, creep up and hold on like a warm hug. Make sure a glass of the crazy fresh OJ is nearby to offset the heat if a mild level is more to your liking. I had been here before and had forgotten until today, how much fun this menu is!

Please open a location in Austin ??So good. Pictured : breakfast and dinner thalis

Enjoyed very much!

Nice upscale ambience

Used to come here all the time but this time was after a long time. So disappointed. No sambar for Dosa. Food was fresh but bland. We went for lunch and had only counter service-what the heck!!

Liked the combination. Potentially not a true Indian food which some people might not like. If you like Indian food and have tasted it before. I liked it though!

Love the fusion twist on indian food. Enjoy their thalis.Highly recommended the bake lab for amazing innovative desserts. The Rose cream cake and flourless chocolate cake is heavenly.

Delicious food, portions are very filling and prices reasonable. On the top you get free tea, water and cooling breeze (after 6pm). Take your other half or just reward yourself.

dropped in on mon i think.

Honestly my favorite evening place. The service was very welcoming and observant. The place has a nice atmosphere.

i love eating here. the place has a nice feel to it.

Food was so fresh. Service is typically above par.

Staff is always super even when they have a full house. Quick, helpful, and friendly service. The bill was fair for the quality of food. They have a lot of positive reviews for a reason.

The ambience is colorful and vibrant. The food is healthy and delicious. Although, it’s an americanized version of the Indian food you get here and not a typical one.

This place has delicious Indian food. It also is a great place to sit outside any time of day and enjoy a Pondilatte. It is a huge cup latte with simple syrup. It is a drink so delightful that it warms your soul.

visited on a thursday. looking forward to returning with my coworkers. it has an awesome feel to it.

Good wholesome food with healthy ingredients

First time going and what an experience!! The food was delicious, exquisite and it had that perfect balance of flavors. Just perfect!! The area is nice and Everything looks clean. They have vegetarian options and a whole menu for beverages. I Highly recommend it!!

The lambchop was phenomenal, so tasty! Everything else was just ok. To my fault we did arrive 20 minutes before closing so I'd be will to give them another shot. But I grew up with an indian best friend and the flavor profile could have been better. They get creative with different flavors, but if you are wanting an authentic taste there are other options in Houston that are better.

Had a wonderful lunch at this restaurant. We ordered lush lassi in cocktail & it was amazing. Their ruby sour was also very good. Sindhi pakora was very oily & very disappointing. I recommend their Citrus & paneer salad, was awesome. Fenugreek fish was delicious though their texan thali was okay. Chickfu curry was okay. Portion size quite reasonable though overall an expensive place.

Some interesting takes on traditional Indian dishes. I was happy with my sandwich (Frankie) and the masala fries that I was served. The prices were reasonable the food was good. Check this place out if you want something modern or different from your standard Indian dishes.

Nice location, beautiful physical setting but pathetic food. If you really know about good quality enrich tasty food never visit the place. I ordered fresh orange juice which was good. salad looked and tasted good too. The lamb was salty, not fresh and bad tasted. Cauliflower was half cooked, lentils were salty and rice were very tasteless. Naan had pathetic yellow color added in it. Over the top I got sick after eating the food. It was such a disappointment. Will never recommend it to anyone. Food is little pricey and completely rubbish.

Hands down one of the best Indian restaurants I've been to in a long time! The coconut crab was definitely the highlight of the night. From the mulled wine to the frankies everything was delicious! I've never had mango and coconut lassi before, but the lush lassi tasted like I was eating a mango mousse cake with coconut flakes. I loved the earth thalis, it was perfect for trying multiple things without the overwhelming portion size. The mulled wine hit the spot with it being cold outside. Overall amazing experience! The service was top notch!

For price and amazing tastiness I strongly suggest the nearby Khyber. This is a good spot for the atmosphere.

Texan thali was awesome. Never had Indian like this.

I visited pondicheri today after reading reviews of the restaurant. I ordered pomegranate pani puri and the Vishnu thali. Coming to the pani puri, the puris were very hard and shallow. It really took some effort to chew the puris! The pani was tasty though and overall, it brought me back to the gol gappe which we get off the street in India. The thali was quite nice, I enjoyed the different gravies offered, the cutlet seemed a little strange to my taste though. The only thing I didn't like about it was how it was so busy - I wish the waiters could pay more attention as to when the customer is ready to order. The more disappointing thing was I had purposely left my water bottle and a bag on my table when I went to use the restroom (so they didn't think there was nobody seated there), only to come back to find they had cleared my table and bag and thrown away the water bottle. I mean, are you in that much of a hurry to seat other customers???

My favorite Indian restaurant. Another delicious meal. ..my first since I went fully vegan. Pondicheri has vegan and gf options that are crave worthy, even for an omnivore. They had gf vegan dessert. I had a lovely meal and was fully satisfied. I will have to grab a dessert the next time I am in town.

Excellent! Outstanding! Impressive! Food. And perfect service

Awesome restaurant with plenty of options and the upstairs bakery is phenomenal

Service fees pocketed by owner. All carry out is charged extra $2. Servers get nothing.

Cute spot in a nice part of town. My food and experience is always up to par.

It was pretty good. Based on the ratings and recommendations I entered with high expectations, but I was not blown away. The prices seemed a bit steep for what you get at comparable Indian restaurants.

Really great gluten free and vegan options. And lots of outside seating!

Cant stop thinking about their lamb chops! Truely amazing and would definitely recommend them along with the rosa rita cocktail and coconut crab! Yum! Our server (whom I unfortunately didnt get her name) was super sweet and attentive! Great experience all around!

Ordered delivery - ordering was easy and delivery costs low, but food was a bit disappointing. Mango lassi tasted mostly of bland cream. $5 order of veggie samosa was a single, small, mediocre samosa. Naan wasn’t particularly good. Butter chicken was very tasty, chickfu was good, and the brussel sprouts served with the chickfu were fantastic, but overall won’t be ordering again.

Fancy Indian place to eat. We ordered pani puri which was good. Chili panner and veggie Frankie were good too. Desi fries were amazing and if I ever go back it would be for fries! Chicken Frankie, Saag and tea were average!

Always a treat. Remarkable flavors.

Please note this review is strictly based on their dessert and bakery menu and not their main dishes: Favorite item - Chai Pie. A unique pie that has the texture of a pumpkin pie but with aromatic chai flavors. Truly fun experience of both American and Indian flavors. Another great dessert is the orange pecan cookie. Strong aroma, zest taste but with the expectation of a thick bakery cookie. Other items that were on the menu were the avocado lime tart, biscuit cookies, panna cotta, and kulfi. Everything here felt very average. Nothing particularly amazed me about these dishes. For the incredible high price, the dishes underwhelmed me. Will consider visiting again to try their main dishes.

Delicious Indian food at a great price. Definitely coming back! GF/V marked menu is greatly appreciated!

Delicious food. Friendly service. Always enjoy our dining.

Their Butter Chicken with Lemon Rice was yummy. I'm happy my hubby and I dined here.

Amazing food and drinks. Got the butter chicken today. Will be returning.

(1)Butter chicken (2)chickfu curry plates were very rich in favor and spice. Good recommendation.

good place to relax and unwind. it has a great atmosphere.

Amazing! The reviews don't do this place justice. Everything was pure deliciousness, perfectly priced, and the perfect serving size to get you full. Thalis on the patio is just a great variety! We had the breakfast and I cannot rave enough about it! We also had the Mumbai toast and that was just perfect in every way. 10 out of 10, would eat again!

I really liked the food and place, the only down side I can think of was that they turned on the heater a little bit late :D

Love this spot. Would ho again and again. Food so tasty of so many flavours

Very cute, cozy and comfortable outdoor patio. They have happy hour every day, weekends included. The food is very flavorful and we felt safe during the pandemic dining outdoors here.

Amazing.... And I lived in the middle East for 10 yrs

What a great place! The ambiance is casual,the place is modern and has a traditional touch. The food is AMAZINGGG we had the cauliflower curry and the chikfu (both vegetarian options) and we were happy to find they have a bunch of options for us vegetarian people! The drinks were also great! We’ll be coming back soon.

I wish there were more places like this around town. The staff was very sociable and kind. Feels similar to a cafe in Chicago I loved.

Good food and different menu options than usual Indian restaurants menu.

Great place!! Socially distanced....calm, stylish and a very mellow place. Me and my family had a great time!!

Omg...my brother just introduced me to this amazing Indian restaurant. It was clean and delicious dishes and the service was excellent. I had the butter chicken and I'm not exactly sure what my brother ate...but it was all delicious. On the way out we both bought our spouses some desserts. My pictures show the different foods we ordered...yummers! Seriously, I love this place! I wish they had a location closer to League city.

I really loved this place. I took the chickfu curry and it was really tasty. Very healthy and fresh food. I loved the ambience of the resteraunt and the chocolate almond cake was amazing. Went with a couple other people and they didn’t particularly like the food as much as me but they still had positive reviews. Definitely would come back.

One of the best and most unique breakfast we ever had. If this was next to my home, I would be here every single day. Lots of gluten free options made my wife very happy.

Liked the place. And loved the food too. Just didn't like the Biriyani. But loved the lamb korma and Chicken Butter Tikka.

Dope bakery with unique sweets that are so unique that I definitely recommend checking out. I got the TX mesquite cookie which was pretty good. It had a hint of spice which was different than your typical cookie

Absolutely Amazing stopped in on a whelm sooooo worth it. I had the butter chicken & lamb chops. The butter chicken super flavorful & fresh the lamb chops are out of this world phenomenal *chefs kiss* I will def be a regular customer !

Not as good as it used to be but still tasty. My mom and I went for dinner on a Saturday night and it would have been a really long wait because we didn’t make a reservation but we were able to sit at the bar and order immediately. We had the pumpkin samosas and butter chicken. I also had a golden latte to drink. The samosas were the perfect texture and were spicy on the inside. I didn’t get as many as the flavors as I had hoped with my mouth burning. The butter chicken was pretty good as well but not as rich in flavor as I remember it being.

Bland Food, unclean and bad service. The Delhi chat we ate was sour to the point where we could not eat it. Hair in dal part of aaram thali. Unclean place we sat near the kitchen and lost appetite by just looking at the kitchen and the chaos. We complained and the server brought another server after 5 mins and they just said we will correct go forward. Please taste your own food, taste your chutney’s and Dahi to check if it’s at least edible before serving. And we spend above $100 to only go buy food at another place. Never going back.
