    Amazing and authentic South indian food here. The irani chai was well balanced and tasted exactly like we get in Hyderabad. The mysore bonda were perfectly spongy and tasty.

    Eh! Being an Indian, I do like trying out Indian restaurants to revisit home. This wasn't it. It wasn't bad, it wasn't great. Since a friend and I were craving chaatt (it's a kind of snack that's savoury and sweet and tangy), so we ordered bhel puri and papdi chat. Bhel puri is a snack that's made with puffed rice and mixed with spices and onions. Papdi chaat has a crunchy puri that's fused with onions and spices and yogurt. Both were okay. My bhel puri had "puri" missing and papdi chaat got really soggy by the time it was delivered (yep, UberEATS order). All in all, okay. I've not tried the curries and Biryanis to review yet.

    A decent place next to an Indian grocery store. Then have most of the regular items and there is a chat stall outside. The food was decent nothing out of the ordinary. My fried chicken Biryani was a tad bit burned. The chai was very good. The place is ok clean and the service was minimal to non existent.

    BEST GLUTEN-FREE DONUTS!!…read more I just had their gluten-free pumpkin donut and it was SO good!! I also grabbed some for my family, and they didn't even realize they were gluten-free -- that's how you know they're good! Everyone was so nice, and the shop itself is super cute and has such a cool vibe. I will definitely be back!!

    Hurts Donuts will hurt: your wallet, your belief in what a GF doughnut could be, and your body…read more First, the good. They taste amazing! I am not a big donut person, but the GF donuts DO NOT taste gluten free at all! They also taste fresh, just a step below having a warm, just made donut (which is the only way to have one IMO). The pumpkin drizzle (idk why drizzle, there was no drizzle on it) has a classic cider mill doughnut flavor. I would not describe it as pumpkin flavored. Now, the reasons why I'll never return. 1. The price! $4 for a single GF donut? That's bonkers! I was going to pay cash, but I couldn't even afford 1 donut with the cash I had on hand. 2. The toppings overwhelm/mask the flavor of the donut, which is a shame and a waste. The pumpkin caramel drizzle was overpowered by the caramel, and it was so sweet, that I couldn't consume the entire donut. That is saying something, given how much they cost! 3. Your gut/body will be in rebellion. IDK what the ingredients are in the GF donut, but I immediately bloated, and my body reacted as if I consumed a product with sugar alcohol (IYKYK). These ill effects lasted the rest of the day, and carried over to the next day. Flavor: 5 stars. Everything else...could be better. So, if you roll up to Hurts Donuts, win the lottery beforehand, go for the plain "drizzle" donuts, as they have the best flavor, and be prepared that your body (and wallet) may not thank you after.
