Service is quick. It is pretty crowded at times but the space is huge. It is the best restaurant for chaats in Bellevue area. Lots of options to choose from.I have tried their Sev puri, Samosa Chaat, Idli, Chocolate Dosa, Pani Puri, Manchow Soup , Tandaai, Rasmalai Parfait, Ferrero Shake and every single time everything was amazing. Highly recommend this place for Indian Chaats. read more

Plenty of choice if u r looking for some good vegetarian options of Indian food, Honest in Bellevue is a good option. Here u will find really anything u can think of: Gujarati style, Marathi style, Punjabi style or South Indian.... Ragra patties, Pao bhaji, all sorts of chaat, tarka style entrees or South Indian dosa or Idli options. Having said that, there are plenty of awesome options around like Chaat House, Angar to name a few. Place is huge and has lots of options but I have had better tasting chaat or Pao Bhaji read more

The North Indian, Gujarati and Maharashtrian food is good. I specifically like their Wada Pav, Thali, Pav Bhaji and Masala Bhaji Pav, The thali sabzi are slightly on the sweeter side. The Bahubali sandwich is also good. Avoid South Indian food here. The uttapam was not cooked properly and the Sambar/Chutney are not very tasty. The Dosa is okay. Nothing great. The service is quick. And the ambiance reminds me of college canteens back in India. read more

Pav bhaji was really good, it's Honest's specialty. A little pricey but the taste reminded me of my favourite place in India. Pani puri was AMAZING. Spicy just as I like it, also came with Meethi chutney, tasted very authentic and yummy! Had a great experience overall but the food was definitely more on the pricey side. read more

Honest - Pav Bhaji Pav Pani Puri (8 pcs) - Indian Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

Honest is a lovely gem in Bellevue! It's placed right next to Apna Bazaar, which makes it so convenient to pop in for a quick snack after getting groceries. It has plenty of seating, but is never empty. We come here often for afternoon snacks and tea. Some things we've tried: - Vada pav: 9/10 - This is sooo yummy and comes with two pieces. The fried potato is the perfect size for the bun, and it comes with some chutneys and spicy powder. This is usually too spicy for me however. - Dahi puri: 8/10 - Can't go wrong here. They make sure to put all the chutneys and fill the puri up nicely with potato filling. - Bahubali Sandwich: 8/10 - This is a 4 piece sandwich which is topped with Amul cheese and comes with spiced chips. It's really delicious and the perfect snack, but I recently found out it has jam, which makes me like it a little less. - Masala chai: 8/10 - Better than any chai in the area and nicely spiced. They have huge servings for everything, and it's a very quick turnaround. Highly recommend all folks to check this out! read more

Really good Mumbai-style food I have had in a while, possibly the best I've had outside of Mumbai. We had the dabang dosa, raj kachori chaat and the paneer tikka sandwich. The dosa was almost exactly if not better than the street dosas I had in Mumbai. Paneer tikka sandwich was interesting and unique. The raj kachori chat could have been a little spicier. But the presentation of every dish was unique and amazing. read more

Dahi bhalla hardly had any vada. It was like eating lassi that has papdis in it. Too sweet.

Tried the very famous Honest while visiting Seattle. Tried Pav Bhaji, Triple Schezwan Fried Rice and Ferrero Rocher milkshake. Pav Bhaji was good and tasted like Mumbai style pav bhaji. Dahi Puri looked and tasted good. Triple Schezwan Fried Rice was uncooked, taste was abysmal. The very hyped Ferrero richer milkshake was chocolate milk and ferrero rocher chocolate on the side. Never order this milkshake at Honest. The menu has lot more to offer but our experience with few things we tried was not good, only pav bhaji lived up to expectations. read more

Overall food and service was great! Got the pav bhaji, bhel puri, chili paneer, mango Lassi and masala chai. Wish they included an additional pav with the bhaji. But other than that service was really quick and we got the food served in less than 5 minutes after sitting down. Will be coming back here to try out more items next time. As we were leaving at 8.30pm place was fully packed and a line out the door! Recommend coming in earlier read more

I'm glad they introduced curries to their menu! I tried the Paneer Lababdar, and it was absolutely delicious. The paneer was perfectly cooked, and the sauce had a rich, flavorful blend of spices with just the right amount of creaminess. It felt authentic and comforting, like something you'd find in a traditional Indian kitchen. I would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys Indian flavors or is looking to try something new. Can't wait to go back and try the other curry options! read more

An HONEST review of the restaurant which I regularly go to for chaats. Probably the best restaurant for chaats in the Seattle/Bellevue area. My go-to dish is papdi Chaat, which offers good value for money (enough to fill 1 person). Apart from that we usually get the Bhakri cheese pizza a dosa or the Dabeli. Pretty much any item on the Chaat menu tastes amazing. Some of their unique dishes are the bahubali sandwich and Dabaang dosa. 100% recommend. Having tried most of the dishes here below is a rating of some of the other dishes: - Chinese (Noodles and Manchurian) - 3/5 not as tasty as some of the other restaurants in the area. - Thaali - 3/5 the Thali has been priced well but items on the Thaali taste pretty ordinary. - Dosas - 3/5 the dosas here are great but the accompanying sambhar and chutneys are very disappointing (pretty bland). - Pav Bhaji - 4/5 recommend, definitely worth a try, although the pav isn't enough to complete the Bhaji, so order extra. - Faloodas - 5/5 I usually go for the pista Faloodas with dry fruit. Definitely add dry fruits for $1 to get that extra crunch. This restaurant is also a good option for catering or bulk orders. Few other points that impressed me about Honest restaurant - To go or home delivery packaging - the chaats are packed separately to ensure maximum freshness and ensures the food doesn't get soggy. - The restaurant is so efficient, even though there is a long line the system they have is place to serve customers is very efficient. You usually get your food within minutes of placing an order. Definitely give this place a shot especially if you're craving chaats or evening snacks. read more

We recently tried this place, we got Pav Bhaji, and Masala dosa, we wanted to get Medu Wada and were told they no longer make Idli and Wada. The dosa was okay, Pav bhaji was good, but it had too much bell pepper for my taste. I have seen a lot of good reviews for Vada Pav, will have to try that next time. read more

In a kingdom of blind one eyed man is king. This is a decent indian street food place catering to vegetarian friendly crowd . 3 star because quality can be inconsistent. I have had amazing food and sometimes average quality. I typically go here for pav bhaji, dabeli and vada pav. Those are my go to dishes here. I also like their chaat fair bit and the bhakri pizza. Sandwiches are really really not that great (despite what other reviews say)...the bread to filling ratio is just way off...I have tried 3 different varieties many times...its way too much bread. If they could just make their bread thickness thinner it could go a long way to making it delicious, especially when there are 3 bread slice per sandwich. I tried their paneer tikka sandwich which is one bread, open faced sandwich...I did like that. Open airy dining area. Parking is absolutely not an issue. Its a good place for some quick vegetarian street food to fill stomach read more

We went to this place on a weekday evening and the line was almost to the door. The place has self service. Since this was my first time here, I tried all the quintessential items such as pav bhaji, bahubali sandwich, dabeli .! Really loved all the 3 items. The dahibhalla papdi chaat was too sweet for my taste. read more

After moving to the Seattle area we have come here multiple times. The restaurant is in an open complex with an Indian grocery store on one side and other good eats. Ample of parking space available which is always full. Its quite far from our place, like 30min drive. Well the dedication, hehehe. The food is far better from the Honest in Artesia, CA. The only thing that we did not enjoy in LA was the Indian food, OMG its bad. We were so looking forward to the Indian food scene here. Ample of sitting space available. You order on the reception area and your given a number and your order is brought to your table. We ordered their:- Vada pav with Amul butter- It was so good, I mean almost like the ones we get in India. Masala chai- It was ok ok. Served with India's favorite cookie Parle-G. Paneer Chilli dry- Nah skip ordering this item. Not sure what was it exactly. Bhakri Pizza- OMG this was so good. Do try it. Overall, its a good authentic Indian Place. The only part which we did not like is the guy at the reception, guy has some serious attitude and the price is way overpriced. While ordering it might seem as the price is alright but the quantity does not match the price. I mean its more than LA. Wonder! read more

It's an average Indian restaurant. I went for chana Bathura but I was little disappointed. The quantity of curry was less and the Bathuras were too oily and thick. It felt a little stale. Dosa was also ok. The place was average clean. But the service was fast. read more

The Paneer tikka sandwich always hits. Great food, my coworkers and I always come here for lunch. Also huge quantity.

We visited on a Saturday night and it was insanely busy! The lines was moving quick and we got our table in 5min! We order pav bhaji, bhakri pizza, chai, pulao, paneer tikka sandwich and chat Papdi, everything was finger licking delicious except Hakka noodles. Definitely place to eat when you visit Seattle next time! read more

Ordered Chole puri and it was terrible! Had 1 inch oil floating on the chole curry, got scared looking at it only. Why do they need tobuse so much oil, cant they make it healthy yet tasty? Im sure they care a damn. These guys are also charging more than other restaurants for this piece of crap. I fell sick the whole night after eating that shit. I felt I had to write a review so they understand the sub-standard quality of their chole puri! Please refrain ! read more

I've been to Honest a couple of times now and its a serious contender to some really good Indian food outside of the bay area. Some of the items that are absolutely wonderful: - vada pav - cheese masala pav with gravy - pav bhaji The bahubali sandwich is also more than decent and is very flavorful. This place gets very busy and sometimes there's a small wait but its well worth it since they get food to your table within minutes. read more

Honest has the best street food I've had in the US. Insanely authentic! I recently learned that they are a nationwide chain and just opened up in the area. They have ample space and can seat a large number of families. Most of the tables seemed to be for 4 people, but I'm sure you can move them around as needed. The place is not ventilated very well, and it was humid inside. Being seated near the kitchen added to the problem, but we were sweating after a few minutes inside. I'm a massive fan of the food. Everything was super authentic and had the right flavors and spices. I think this is one of the few restaurants which has not Americanized their food. The samosa chaat and dahi puri are a must get. It is superb and the closest to authentic street food I've had in the area. They also have splendid snacks - pav bhaji, bahubali sandwich, and vada pav. All were a solid 5/5. The dosa, however, was pretty average - nothing to get excited about. The sambar and chutneys with it were excellent, but the overall meal didn't hit the spot. I would give it a 3/5. Overall it was a sure-shot 5/5, and I would be going here a lot more often. read more

Some dishes are absolutely delicious (hence 5), while some you need to steer clear of (the Chinese menu, how easy is it to screw up fried rice! Well turns out... very). It was an utter disaster. I absolutely love some of their sandwiches (Baahubali and samosa cheese grill), but the outstanding ones are Vada Pav and Dabeli. Totally on point. The pav bhaji category (including cheese versions and masala pav) are a hit or miss. Their Bhakri pizza... innovative and good for sure. Sometimes I feel like ordering more stuff off their menu but given the inconsistency, I don't feel motivated. Suggestion to the restaurant: If you intend on customers ordering Chinese, then seriously consider improving the quality. Otherwise skip it from the menu. You guys are very promising and I will stick to the good dishes, and I will definitely order from you, but just not the Chinese food. read more

Pathetic food .. I was regretting whole day after having food at this restaurant. We ordered Dabeli and thali. I must say Dabeli was really good.But $20 thali was soooo disappointing and every vegetable in thali was distasteful. The salad pickle served along with thali was not fresh at all. I think the staff do not know how to cook Indian food at all. I had a long day at work and came here to enjoy a good meal but couldn't eat their food as it was distasteful and not fresh. Would not repeat the same mistake of coming to Honest again. Thank you for serving distasteful and unfresh food. !! read more

Review for the stuff we ate and all were excellent. Bhakri pizza - This one will take you straight back to 20 years back in India where the big pizza chains hadnt yet opened and Pizza was something that was made on premade bread and loaded with cheese. The sauce, the toppings and the abundant cheese was a perfect trip of nostalgia. Bahubali sandwich - Another one of those things which is very indian street food - the grilled sandwiches. The name of the sandwich gives away its size and the combination of layers just works. Vada Pav - Probably as good as one could get outside of Bombay. read more

Honest review: I love this place! I was brought here by my Indian friends and needed their assistance through the menu. The street food here is delicious and the lassi was amazing! My first time trying Indochinese cuisine was here and I was blown away. read more

Good food. Fast service. Descent ambiance. Street style Mumbai food is amazing, (South Indian and Chinese are ok). Vada pav is a must try.

Food We ordered vada paav, and paav bhaji. Too much garlic in the food. The potato masala in vada is pretty basic and doesn't look like what you get in a mumbai vada paav. Paav didn't have any butter. Bhaji had too much garlic and oil. I looked at Yelp before ordering and seems the paav bhaji is most rated, I was disappointed. Replying to owner's comment : its not that I have a problem with garlic, I like it but paav bhaji having too much garlic ruined it for me. Sure, you can ask them to remove the garlic but I expect restaurant to not ruin basic things and then ask customer to fix it:) read more

Dabeli, dahi bhalla papdi chat, masala pav, Mumbai wada pav are all best I have ever had! Really recommend for these items.

Unfortunately it had spices miss the spot. Every dish and sweet. Even then pizza was sweet. Pav bhaji was a disappointment. The dominant taste was of ginger in there, not at all palatable. Dosa was good. I truly had high hopes of finding a casual eatery we could frequent, but alas honest is not it... read more
