They were careful about my gluten allergy and had plenty of options. Nikki was our server and she was friendly. Our group tried Indo-Chinese and they loved everything. I tried the peshawari chicken. It was nice and creamy. Nikki did tell us that it was only one big piece of chicken which was helpful because we were ordering family style. We still ended up ordering it because the rest had Indo-Chinese (not GF). I'd be back to try some other things on their menu.

I love the music playing in the background, and the Mumbai themed décor is so unique and thoughtfully done. It really adds to the whole experience. Coming to the food, I specifically went for the happy hour chaat platter. I reached around 6:56 PM, and the platter is only available from 5 to 7 PM. Initially, I could not find it on the menu, and our assigned server was different. However, Rohan recognized us from our previous visits and came over. When I mentioned I was there just for the chaat platter, he kindly checked and found the menu for us. He let us know it would take about 20 minutes to prepare, which we were completely fine with. The platter arrived in about 20 to 25 minutes, and it was absolutely worth the wait. Everything from the bhel puri, pav bhaji bites, samosa chaat, to the sandwich was delicious, flavorful, and very satisfying. The chai was also really good. Highly recommend this place for both the vibe and the food. We will definitely keep coming back.

Food: (3/5) I got the veggie samosas and my partner got the chicken korma. The inside was savory and fluffy but the outside was a little soggy which might be from sitting in a box for a 20 minute car ride. I felt like they were just ok compared to others I've had. My partner's chicken korma was our first time ever trying the dish and we really enjoyed it! It was creamy and definitely warmed up our bodies on such a cold day. The chicken was also really tender. Service (5/5): The two girls at the front counter greeted us when we came in and were very kind when taking our order. The food took about 20 minutes to make, which we used to hop next door and get a drink from He Brew. Loved the overall experience!

I was able to enjoy the buffet. :) The food is where I have very mixed feelings. For 22 dollars, it's pricy. 28 USD with a 20% tip. Cheaper than other restaurants that do 20 USD an item. Tandori Chicken - A bit salty. Decent. Rice - Nice and warm. Not overcooked or undercooked. Vegetarian Coconut Curry - Mixed feelings. It's average and feels like its missing something. Maybe sugar? Chicken Tikka Malasa - No complaints! It was very tasty!! Paneer Saag - Tasted great at first but tasted progressively bitter. Was it because I drank water?? Kneer (Rice Pudding) - Tasty, but I wished it was a bit thicker. It was enjoyable!! This was my experience. I'll try again eventually. ;)

Realistically I would have given a 3.5 star rating but felt it was closer to 3 than 4. Keep in mind I got takeout. Here is everything I got with its rating: - Butter chicken (3/5) - Sauce was a bit too sweet and didn't have the spicy depth of flavor that I'm accustomed to having at other restaurants - Garlic naan (3.5/5) - Was lacking garlic and I usually like it more pillowy - Samosa (4/5) - Was solid, no complaints but not anything exceptional. Was missing the green sauce that usually comes with and could have been packed to stay a bit crispier (holes in the box). - Chicken wings (4/5) - This ended up being the best thing we got albeit they were just buffalo wings Portion sizes were relatively small compared to the same price I would have paid at other restaurants.

Service- I had a lady (assuming the owner), she was a bit pushy in having us order more. Other than that nobody bothered us during our meal. I did however notice how most of their attention was towards their regulars (giving them a benefit of doubt) which happened to be anyone that wasn't Indian/brown. We had zero check ins during our meal but there was a couple right next to us and almost every server there, and another family that had all their attention. Place- it can get a bit crowded and feel like the tables are set a little too close together. Overall, come for food.

So when the opportunity arose to share a Friday night dinner with family, we opted to try 5 Rivers Indian Cuisine, a family owned and run restaurant in Everett on Evergreen Way near 4th Avenue, specializing in Punjabi and Mediterranean cuisine! They have lots of amazing options to choose from. While nothing is specifically labeled vegan, they do have many vegetarian options I found them to be very accommodating to our vegan dietary needs. I've almost never met a Grape Leaf dish I didn't like so I had to try their version. They did an amazing job with the aesthetics, using a creamy vegan tahini sauce to really bring this dish to that next level. I also ordered Baba Ghannoj. Surprisingly, they advised their pita bread is not vegan but they gladly substituted roti instead, super flavorful and great mix of textures dancing around on the palette. For a main dish, I heard their "Vegetarian Thali" dish calling to me (but thankfully, it didn't call me Seymour .. .. .. ), giving me the opportunity to try a myriad of flavors and combinations. Given that a couple of components weren't vegan, they were graciously able to accommodate .. and provide me with a fully vegan ncombination of (from left to right) Aloo Chana, Dal Maharanji, Aloo Gobi, Basmati Rice and more delicious roti bread. Everything was delicious and super filling, I had to take a lot home with me. If you're in the area, I definitely recommend dropping by to try their flavorful mixture of Punjabi and Mediterranean inspired dishes!

It offers an extensive menu, and for what you pay, the portions are very generous! Our favorite dishes are the mango curry, lamb vindaloo, and the classics like butter chicken and tikka masala. We always order some form of appetizer. We have had the samosas as well as the hummus and tabouleh, and everything has been delectable! I always order their baba Ganoush. The smoky, roasted eggplant is savory and has great depth to the flavor profile. Our other favorite is the garlic naan. It is seasoned to perfection and roasted beautifully! Another thing I appreciate is they offer a spice level for your order. Spicy is a relative term, so I appreciate having a range to work with. 5 Rivers recently renovated their dining area, and it is very beautiful and clean. Service is always friendly, too. Overall we are very happy to have found such a gem nearby!
