Idli was fresh Dosa was super oily There was also a hair in the dosa. But even if we take that out of the picture, it wasn't good. Potato stuffing was good. Drive to hilcroft instead. Not returning. read more

- We don't believe this business is very ethical and Bhavanben will try to cheat you in either augmenting your billing or reducing the quantity of food, and forcing you to buy additional food that you don't want. She will act as if she is ignorant, but she is just too greedy and miser when it comes to taking care of customers and good service. - Worst customer service with the same person cooking and handling the counter. So prepared to wait for long. - Gujarati owner tried to get out of honoring coupons that they are participating for marketing activities. Once she realized that she had to honor the discount, she reduced the food quantity by 40%. - Ambiance is the worst of all and we also felt the neighborhood to be spooky and not safe. - Food was tasteless and felt like a couple of subjis were 2 days old. - Overly priced, worst tasting food, and 3rd class service. I would stay away from the restaurant and go for an Indian meal somewhere else. read more

Tastes good at first but their food . . . Will result in a half day on the can and a burn where the sun don't shine. Just be prepared for the afterburner effect . . . read more

Today I ate at this place for the first time. The owners and chef are so warm and welcoming. I pretty much Ate like half the food on their menu. All the chaats are sooooo Yummy. I couldn't get enough. A friend and I literally shared like 6 plates of differentkinds of chaat between the two of us. Different kinds. The adrakh Chai was perfect! It was like eating home food. This place is Definitely Worth checking out!!!. i think i'm going to be a regular here. Thanks, Bhavna Chirag and Sanjay for taking care of me. read more

Their vegetable samosas and paneer masala is to die for. Reminds me of my grandmother's cooking. Can't wait to try more off the menu!

I regret so much coming here. I waited 25 minutes to order food, and it took 40+ minutes for the food to come out. And it was not even warm or gOod. I ordered the Aloo Bhaji, and it was super sad. Boiled potato and added curry paste, that's what took them 40 minutes. Unbelievable. read more

Mirch Masala - Aloo bahja - Indian Near Me - Houston, Texas

This is truly a hidden gem in an unpretentious, homely setting and perfect if you are craving a taste of perfectly spiced , home cooked Indian dishes from the many different regions of the country. Chirag and Bhavna , the owners have recently moved to this new location and are hard at work trying to provide a warm, welcoming and very satisfying dining experience for their customers! Have tried all of their chaats, their curries are fabulous (ask for recommendations to suit your palate !) and the thaalis are wholesome and flavorful. Will frequent Mirch Masala as often as we can! read more

I came in when the restaurant was completely empty... the lady at the counter was very nice and I was glad to see so many vegan options... What I didn't like is that they microwaved my appetizer and it tasted a little rubbery. And I got a dosa for $9 but there was no filling... it was just the crepe part folded over with the dhal and coconut sauce... it was strange. I always order dosas everywhere I go. And I've never seen it without any filling... I would have asked the server if maybe they forgot to put the filling in but she never came back to check on me. So I ate alone, in silence and just left... it was unfortunate because I thought this place was going to be amazing... read more

Decent Indian food if you are looking for a quick bite like chaat, pav bhaji dosa. Food is tasty, chaat very good. Dosa is good but sambhar is ok. Also tried gajar halwa (carrot pudding) which was not very good. Very reasonably priced and good service. Used the yelp special free chai! read more

Mirch Masala - Spicy Dosa & Chai - one free chai upon checking in through YELP if available it will pop up! - Indian Near Me - Houston, Texas

Their service was very good. I had a little fun with one of the cashiers when I asked him what he would recommend. I told him he was "very diplomatic" because he wouldn't outright recommend to me what most vegan patrons order. Of course, he said he would recommend something if I came in more regularly. Love the sales spirit! I ordered the Vegetable Samosas, Gobi Mix, and Yelp awarded me a free Chai Tea for checking in. The Samosas were some of the best I have ordered anywhere. The Gobi Mix was good. To me it wasn't amazing, but it was good. The Chai Tea was delicious also. Fortunately, I was able to make it vegan with almond milk. I would definitely recommend this place especially if you are in this area because I couldn't find many vegan restaurants close by. read more

After asking if they buy or make their samosa, the lady took me back to the kitchen to see them making the samosa! Kitchen was CLEAN & smelled delicious! The paneer tika masala was good and so was the Samosa. Next time I'll try the palak paneer. read more

A+ for freshly prepared food, customer service and of course the flavors. The owners are quite friendly and give utmost importance on freshly prepared meals. Would definitely visit this restaurant again! read more

For all those people who think this "restaurant" serves "fresh" food, they DO NOT!!!! My experience was terrible and the justification provided for the not so "fresh" food was even worse!! On my way home from work my wife asked for me to bring a Masala Dosa home because she was really craving it. For those who don't know what a Masala Dosa is, it's a huge piece of flat bread with a potato filling. The meal comes with a soup and some dipping sauces. Well, I yelped this place, and sorry fellow yelpers, ya let me down. It was rated extremely well so I figured they'd have good food. Well, I went in on my way home, grabbed a Dosa and headed out. Got home and unpackaged the meal, only to be hit with a foul and awful smell instantaneously. I opened the potato container and I could smell the terrible smell from 3 feet away. It had already spoiled within the 15 minute car ride. But that can't be possible, I thought, so I figured I would call the shop and let them know. Their explanation to my experience, "Well, we make our potatoes at 10am, so it is out all day and it can happen". Really??? Potatoes made at 10am, served at 7pm???? Seriously?!?!?!? How in the world can that be considered fresh??? read more

I tryed the pani puri very good I would recommend to come very good servers nice people

Update: I went for a second time with my family, and the experience wasn't great. The service is a chaos and the parathas were undercooked. Probably not coming back. Although we weren't too pleased with the ambience, the food is beyond amazing. The parathas are the best you'll find in Houston, and same goes for the chaat. Definitely coming back here! The owners are also really nice, and the wife who is the main one to prepare the food is absolutely adorable! Also, it helps if you order on the phone before coming, so that you won't have to wait a while for the food after arriving. read more

The food was very good! I was pleasantly surprised. The customer service was great and the lady at the front counter was very sweet and helpful. I will definitely be back. I love being able to order anything on the menu because it's all vegetarian. I would recommend this place. It may take a while for them to take your order, but if you can wait, the food is very tasty... just enough spice. It took a while for them to take my order, but once they took my order, the food came out quickly. If you want to avoid the wait, you can call 1st. read more

I hate to give low ratings but the food was just bad. I tried to like it but my god it tasted terrible lol. I got these little wraps that had this weird flavor. I probably will never go back. The service was great though. The Indian people were very nice and welcoming. I just couldn't get into the food. Tasted so bad lol. I may go back for desserts. I had kofta. So bad lol sorry guys. Just didn't like it at all. But you all are very nice people. read more

I am currently following a Vegan diet and was in search of somewhere to get food besides a salad place. I stumbled upon this gem on YELP (yaass!). I LOVE LOVE Indian food and thought this would be a great place to get a healthy meal. It did not disappoint! First, let's talk about the menu. It's HUGE. And I love that the food items are clearly marked either Vegan or Vegetarian. I ordered this cabbage dish (I forget the name), but it is basically sauteed cabbage with peas and seasonings. It comes with rice. Because I am a greedy Vegan (now), I also ordered a side of plain naan and got the vegetable samosas (it comes with 2). Soo...love love love the samosas. They came out super hot. Very flavorful. The cabbage and rice were pretty good. And the naan was delightful! I loved it! I was stuffed, but it was a good "stuffed." I didn't feel sickly. I think it's because it was a fairly healthy meal. Portion sizes were a little on the smaller side, but the prices are fair! The restaurant is more of a "Mom and Pop" kinda place. So the interior is not....well let's just say, you ain't gonna come in for the ambiance. :) read more

Vegetable pakora is delicious. However, some dipping sauce would have been nice. The menu did not mention that it was a la cart. Palak paneer is cold, and relatively flavorless. Also the paneer came with no rice. It's a to-go order and I didn't even receive plastic-wear or a napkin. I ordered ahead through yelp, showed up 10 minutes later, and still had to wait 10 minutes more. Not impressed. It's basically a dive restaurant and only 2 ladies working. You have to ring a bell to get someone to even come to the front, and people who were eating there, were served on old school cafeteria trays. read more

We went there around 12:15 and waited more than an hour to order and get our food. After waiting for so long, I finally got the Raj Kachori which looks good but tastes like they just took it out from the fridge. It was extremely cold. We asked them whether it was supposed to be like that, and the lady said they heated it but probably not long enough. Here comes the most ridiculous part, she said there were too many customers so she could not make me a new one. If I come next time, they can give me something else. 1st: The restaurant was not even half occupied. 2nd: I won't want to go there again. 3rd: They didn't make notes of any of my info. How will they remember me next time? Since the wait already took away so much time, I thought of just finishing the food and leaving the place, but it tasted too cold I could not eat it. We asked her again to heat it up with microwave for couple seconds, but it was still cold. I was not able to continue eating it and she finally said they will make another one for me. (It was already around 1:40 pm.) She said give her 2 min. (I waited for half hour to get the cold food but she can make me another one in 2 min.?!) Unsurprisingly, the new plate was still partially cold (not heated evenly). It was over my lunch break time for too long so I had to finish that plate quickly. I will never go there again. read more

The food was good but not the best Indian vegetarian food that I have had. There are other restaurants in the area that I usually go for this and I am going to continue to go to those. It is also a little bit on the expensive side. read more

The food was extremely bland. But they had good prices and kind customer service. It's also a non-crowded place and quiet.

Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge wait times. We waited for 20 min before our appetizer arrived. And we waited for 1 hour before our main course did. If you want to stop by for quick bites then u shud order from their items on the white board(thali etc). The menu items take the above mentioned times. Othet than that the food tastes good and looks healthy. Next time we will order the food and grab groceries from the indian store next door then come and eat. read more

She asked me to leave a review before we got all of our order. We went fir an early lunch and did not order the buffet. We ordered three items. She brought one out and then the next about 5 minutes later. We ate and then waited and waited... we finally stood to check out. She then checked out a group before us even though i had been waiting first for quite awhile... as she rang us up she remembered our 3rd item and gave it to us to go. It was more than a 2 hour lunch.... read more
