We had the chicken pakoras deep fried in a chickpea batter. Great healthy flavor. A side dipping sauce of chutney accompanied the starter nicely. We also tried the Vegetable pakoras with potato and onion. Fresh and crispy. The Yellow Daal Curry had nice flavor of Indian spices, onions, cumin, and coriander. It tasted fresh and healthy. We order with jasmine rice for all of our dishes. Light and fluffy. Very nice portions. The chicken Tikka Masala was not the typical flavor. It was more spicy than creamy and being totally honest they need to re-do this recipe. I have had this dish tons of times and the flavor is totally off. It wasn't bad pre se, just not typical flavors of the dish. I would love to see them re-do this one please! Then let me know and I will come back. It would be so nice as this is my favorite Indian dish. Last we tried the Coconut Curry. We chose to include chicken. I think this was my favorite dish. Lovely fresh coconut flavor and the potatoes were so good! oh...and don't forget to get yourself some garlic naan. Yum Yum. A great place to gather for lunch or dinner with friends and family. Thanks!

There is plenty of sitting room or you can sit at the bar. The food was extremely delicious. We live in South Texas where you can't find Indian food, at least not these days, so it was a super special treat for us as we were visiting Austin. Indian food is one of our faves, so we felt very satisfied and lucky! We highly recommend this restaurant. We had the chicken lollipops, the garlic naan, the butter chicken, and the tikka lamb.

We ordered the butter chicken, the mixed meat platter with chicken, lamb, and shrimp, the vegetable samosas, and, of course, a mango lassi. The butter chicken was my favorite--it had a rich, flavorful sauce and was definitely the standout dish. Everything else was well prepared, and the mango lassi was the perfect complement to the meal. The restaurant was clean, had a nice atmosphere, and the service was pleasant. I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu.

First, they mixed up the spice levels on our dishes - not a huge deal, but confusing when you're expecting a certain heat level. The bigger problem was the butter chicken.

Started with the Garlic Naan. Heard it was pretty good and I definitely agree. Not only was the bread hot with crispy edges, the flavor of the garlic wasn't too strong but definitely evident and tasty. The Garlic Naan at the south location tasted a tad strange and wasn't as flavorful as the one in the north location, but that may just be an anomaly. My entree was the Dhaba Mutton Curry. You can't say no to bone-in goat. I try to eat different things at restaurants, but after loving it the first time, I had to get it again. The bone-in goat meat is truly tender with occasional pieces of fat. You can really separate the pieces with a spoon. The curry sauce is delicious with just the right consistency to bind with the rice. This dish opened my eyes to the world of goat meat. Seriously. So good. The entree also came with saag paneer (similar to creamed spinach). I don't often rant about vegetables, but this stuff is super delicious. Mix it in with the rice or just eat it by itself, I just can't have enough of it. Can we get endless refills on this? I wanted to ask our waiter, but wimped out. There is an issue with their service though. In the south Austin location, there were only 4 tables with customers, including mine. However, the service was especially slow, specifically after the meal. After showing the waiter our voucher, he put it back down on the table and left. 15 minutes would then go by until they took our voucher again and returned with our check. That's 15 minutes of my party and me aimlessly chatting and glancing around the restaurant. In a near-empty restaurant, speed of service was the last thing I expected to encounter. Other than that, the staff was very friendly and our water glasses were always full.

Living in South Austin, it's so hard to get delicious Chaat and thus comes in Chaat ka Chaskaaa. Situated behind a gas station, it has funky truck with an elaborate menu. My order : Grilled Bombay sandwich - 5/10 Vada pav - 9/10 Chole chaat - 8/10 The sandwich was disappointing and dismal and lacked authenticity. It was a little bland and lacked the right amount of filling for a triple layered sandwich. Not worth it. The vada pav stole the show. The patty was so yummy and well cooked. They rub the bun with gun powder and that made it extra special. The chole chaat was authentic and was a perfect blend of spices. The chole was well cooked. The important part of this review should be the price I paid for the entire order. It was just $22 and they do charge like a food-truck instead of restaurant prices!
