    This place has really good options for Indian street food, all vegetarian. They also have really good smoothies and an assortment of ice cream that are Indian flavors. I got the Masala veggie burger, samosa sandwich, and pav bhaji, which were all super delicious! The portion for price was on spot. I would like to go back and try more stuff on the menu.

    First time having lunch here. Absolutely loved it. I got the pani puri and Bombay sandwich --- both were incredibly delicious. The food is very affordable.

    Ice creams are delicious. And ordered samosa chaat, aloo/tiki chaat, paapri chaat but taste good with the sauces/chutneys. But, if they smash the samosa that would be great. In my order the samosas cut into two half’s only. Same with aloo tiki chaat as well. Both tastes same only. I was here few times…, always busy in the evenings. Place your order and grab a table. Few of them are little pricey with less quantity. But the place is really good and Would love to try other items.

    Go to PBC instead if you aren’t a fan of artificial coloring in your food They won’t give you an extra spoon and the napkins were from a pizzeria next door….. no wonder they cut corners when it comes to food quality. Vada pav and aloo chaat was OK. Paneer panini was just colorful and tasteless, very bad (too much red40). The tables were sticky and the service was sub par. Place felt unclean, the kind of places where you do not want to touch the tables…. Then the owner/cashier tried telling me he had used sweet and spicy maggi ketchup in it. I use this ketchup with my eggs every morning and let me tell you it was not it. At first he said we used tomato sauce then when I asked if it was Maggi he said yes. Gave me the ketchup by itself so I could taste it, after I had already told him I have had it before and it does not match the color or the taste of the sandwich. You can see in other pictures the sandwich is bright red (this comes from fake color additive). You can look up studies on red40 in your diet and autism etc. I told the cashier this and was expecting just a “sorry you did not like your sandwich” and move on. This was not the case, cashier tried convincing me that I got one of the more ‘American sandwiches’. He suggested the paneer and the cali are for more of the American clientele. Ok, I guess I must have changed colors when I walked in. I did ask him about the difference in the paneer panini and a paneer Tufani sandwich when I was ordering A good business man would have offered to replace the sandwich with another one, or at the very least apologized. Anyways, there’s a better snack spot called PBC. Check it out

    Great cafe to hangout ! Chat food was super delicious. We have tried almost everything on the menu and all were tasty. Excellent service and they are so courteous , friendly and polite . Overall its a good place to have Indian chat food ,chai, fruit shakes and some Indian base sandwiches. The price is very much reasonable and the ambiance,setup is so welcoming and pleasant . Don’t miss out this place !

    We just love this place, so far whatever we ordered was delicious. Especially, their vada pav and samosas are a must to try. In Ice-creams you should try sitafal ice cream ( my personal favorite ). On the last visit, I ordered their new item on the menu which was Lilva kachoris which were not fried properly, I told them and they took care of it. Very good customer satisfaction.

    Great little shop serving ice cream and vegetarian Indian foods. We tried paneer panini and Cali veggie Panini with mango lassi - very yummy. I ordered the paneer panini spicy and the they asked regular spicy or Indian spicy? I’m glad they asked - regular spicy was perfect for me. We will back to try some chaat, and ice cream.

    One of the best authentic Indian fast food restaurant in Tampa Bay Area. Every single time we went there never disappointed. Almost try their all menu items including all sandwiches, chaat and all homemade eggless Icecream’s .Their test and freshness is unable to beat the other fast food restaurants around the Tampa Bay Area. They make all their food live in front of you after you order so obviously it will take some time while they make it. But at list you get it fresh (not like other restaurants who microwave the food after removing from fridge) . All their drinks even made fresh in front of you after placing the order. Must try their Milk shake made from Icecream. You definitely love it.

    Food was delicious, different types of grill sandwiches must try all. Pavbhaji was better than honest. They have American ice cream as well as Indian style ice cream such as pan , rajbhog etc.

    Yummy food. Def going back here for quick stop by when craving for street food. Full thumbs up for this place!! The only recommendation, increase food menu items rather than Ice cream options!!

    DONT GO HERE IF UR MUSLIM OR WEAR A HEADSCARF. One star is being too generous. It felt like she targeted us because we are Muslim, we were wearing the headscarf/hijab. My family and I went to to get ice cream and the girl working there was so rude. First off we all tried a few flavors bc it was our first time and there were different types of flavors, ones we’ve never seen before. Although we tried a few different flavors My family and I shared the same sample out of the same spoon, for every flavor we tried we didn’t even ask for separate sample spoons for each of us like they usually would… anyways the girl told us “this is the last flavor you’ll try you tried too many.” And at that point we were so upset we paid for the ice cream we bought and we left we were going to give them so much business but we didn’t because of how rude she was. She could have said it nicely like there’s a tasting limit or sorry I am unable to sample too many flavors or something. there’s a way of talking and addressing a situation and she was not even apologetic she told us to ahead write a bad review and she didn’t even care. Also while taking us she took another customer and that was very rude too but we didn’t say anything about that. Also they are literally using another restaurants napkins… embarrassing…

    Went for lunch, really friendly service. Not a ton of options for chaat but the ones we ordered were delicious. Nani Puri and Aloo with Samosa and Masala Chai. Fantastic flavors and FRESH! The samosa was probably the best one I have had in a long time. Would go back to try more dishes. I would like to try the pav bhaji as well. The atmosphere is very "ice cream shop" but don't let that fool you, the food is no joke. Those three dishes between two people was plenty for a nice lunch.

    We were here for the chaat and panipuri. They tasted good for what's available in the area, but it's a monotonous taste in all the dishes. We also ordered a custard apple ice cream, which was below expectations. It was way too pricey, too. It's okay for an occasional craving.

    Food is not so great but tastes good With the price mentioned per items can increase the quantity and quality as well .

  • 4/5 Sree S. 9 months ago on Google
    Dine in on a weekend. Limited seating so plan accordingly if dining in. As name says all food is spicy, so kids may not enjoy the menu much and consider water bottles . Smoothie sweet 18 was not good. Chikku icecream was ok, not tasty as shake, so kids may not enjoy. Dishes ordered were good except spicy.

    I love this place which has become my go to restaurant for Indian street food. The staff is friendly and the place is always clean. It's been 3 years since I have been visiting them but not even once, I have been disappointed with anything.

    I went there last week Friday and absolutely loved the sandwiches I got! The food was delicious and fresh and the staff was friendly and offered suggestions when I asked. They have soo many different flavors of ice-cream too! I had the Bombay Sandwich, the Paneer Panini, and veggie springrolls for my husband and I. My only comment would be that the veggie springrolls were mostly of the roll wrapped and barely any veggies inside but it was cooked nicely. Thank you and Happy New Year!

    We had pav bhaji, papdi chat and vada pav . Papdi chat was the worst one . Don’t recommend. But pav bhaji and vada pav are OK. Heard a lot about their Bombay sandwiches . Will give a try next time and post my comments . Last to mention their ICE Creams are top notch .

    Desi Ice-creams!! They've got it right!! I had an emotionally-moving experience here!! 😍 This restaurant came highly recommended by our fellow Indians. And the restaurant did not disappoint. We thoroughly enjoyed the ice-creams, they have a variety of Indian flavors. I especially loved the Custard apple (sitaphal) and the Desi Paan flavors. The servers behind the counter were helpful and patient. They answered all questions and offered tastings of the ice creams. Pictured in my review is the Desi-Paan, you can see the delicate color and the scrumptious gulkand and paan bits. Yummy!! Ohhhh and for a touch of nostalgia, they serve it in cones that taste like the one's available in India during my childhood!! I wasn't kidding when I said the experience here was emotional!! We'll be back to try more ice-cream flavors.

    ********************************* We have ordered from here multiple times, I liked their vadapavs, sandwiches and pav bhaji especially. They have very prompt service and the quality of food is really great. The prices are good. They also offer enough portions of food on each order. I would suggest pav bhaji and vadapav for people visiting here first time. *********************************
