    Love a casual food spot with decent prices, a simple menu and delightful flavors. Tried the burgers and fries and were very happy with them both. Staff was friendly and helpful with my questions. Ambiance is a bit sterile but appreciate a clean place so its a plus to me.

    Double smash burger

    Delicious spot that I'm glad we came across. The burger patties were so rich with flavor and the masala fries truly hit the spot on a cold day. The staff was awesome and super helpful with questions. Big fan

    Chicken and rice bowl

    What a fantastic addition to the local eating scene. Absolutely wonderful Afghan food. Authentic and fresh.Great service with a smile. Very reasonable prices. We have been waiting for this place to open, and it is sooooo good. A few tables, if you want to eat in. Pleasant and clean interior. My new go to place; I had the chicken and veggie rice bowl, and a piece of delish baklava.

    Double Smash!!!
    J.P. A.

    I have been waiting to leave this review just to see if anything changed in my order for this past year. I order the same thing double or single smash burger and ff on the side. This is a semi- small establishment with a beautiful & clean interior w/ some outdoor seating out front. For an extra 5$ French fries are a must! It is well worth it considering the burger is very well priced ($7). Always greeted with the biggest smile from whom ever is working the counter that day. I go a good 2-3 times a month. The service is always above and beyond. My wife and I sometimes will sit outside with our pups and ask for plain fries for them. What a treat. We love how the staff makes you feel so comfortable to the point of being part of the family. These types of places are hard to come by. If in Beacon please stop by the local places and show them some love. I guarantee they will show the love back.

    Great fast casual restaurant. I have gone with my partner, my parents, and my in laws! We all loved the burgers. They are perfectly seasoned and unique in their own sense for burger as I have had nothing similar to it. The masala fries are incredible too! Service is your standard pay at the register and sit down. You can finish your meal with a delicious dessert like Baklava.

    Great burgers, good prices, the staff is very friendly and the ambiance gives a groovy restaurant vibe. I'll definitely be back!

    Eggplant Rice Bowl

    Nansense serves something for everyone. The menu has vegetarian options which is great for someone like me who was looking for something clean, flavorful and vegetarian to eat. I got the eggplant rice bowl which was absolutely delicious and fresh. The masala fries are a must try as well. The service is amazing and the ambiance is just right. The prices are more than affordable for the quality and flavor of the food. Not to mention their rose mint lemonade is the best I've had yet.

    We do not live locally however have returned multiple times for this wonderful addition to Beacon. The service is kind and the offerings are flavorful and authentic, we have yet to have the pleasure of finding the rice pudding available and will keep trying!

    Hospitality is a lot about how you treat your customers. Its the energy, the manners, the vibe, the…read morehuman connection. Sad to say, after being loyal customers, this place turned us off tonight permanently. I placed a large anniversary dinner order by phone, including tahdig ($12). During the call, I specifically asked if the rice came with tomato and onion and was told no it comes with the tahdig that I ordered. So yes it comes with the order. I was also asked whether I wanted the gheymeh on top or on the side of the tahdig. I chose on the side. When I got home, the order didn't match what was discussed: The tahdig wasn't traditional rice tahdig like me or my wife have had countless times. It was more like this brownish, sheet-like, crumble with a few flecks of rice on the crumble, but not crispy. Not Persian tahdig. The gheymeh was missing entirely, despite being discussed on the call. The tomato and onion that I was told were included were not there. The fesenjan had only a few pieces of chicken. The ghormeh sabzi was okay, but pretty underwhelming in flavor. I called politely to clarify about the missing tahdig (for next time) and was told someone would call me back. No one did. When I called again an hour later, the same person who took my original order responded in a dismissive and accusatory tone, unilaterally escalating her tone and voice immediately, almost angrily accusing me of daring to call, and told me that the tahdig does not come with gheymeh, and tomato and onion aren't included either. (This is the opposite of what I was told when ordering). She repeatedly interrupted me, talking over me, instead of listening or trying to resolve the issue. We've been coming here since moving from Southern California a few years ago, whenever we felt homesick and wanted some Persian food. The food has always been....OK....nothing like Persian restaurants in Toronto or Southern California, but we continued ordering out of nostalgia and lack of other options. However, this experience today, incorrect information, missing items, no follow-up, and then, the way the situation was handled was our final turn off. Disappointing, especially for what was meant to be a special occasion. We won't be returning, nor will our visiting Persian family or friends.

I highly recommend the bread, the dipping sauces, the chicken, vegetables, and dessert! I can't wait to come back here again soon and try more of their food options. Everything I tried was delicious and very fresh.

They do post and update the website which is super helpful. We ordered and shared the following: Samosas Bread basket with a bit of all the Naan Malal Kofta Tangdi Kebaba-grilled to perfection (takes about 1/2 an hour since it's freshly made) Butter chicken Chicken Tikki Masala The sauces were delightful over their rice and of course to dip the Naan! Each one was tastier than the other and we brought home leftovers for tomorrow. This is a super busy place, lots of to go orders and people eating in. If the weather permits, you can even sit outside. Inside is thoroughly air conditioned and well ventilated. I dare say my kids rated this some of the best Indian food they have ever had.

    Came on a Sunday night for dinner. The menu is a QR code that directs you online and requires you…read moreto view it from your phone. Unfortunately, it's extremely clunky and not very user friendly (see photos). Because there are so many items on the menu and they are grouped separately, you have to constantly click, then go back, then click again, and repeat. One pros to this is some of the items have photos and descriptions, although some do not have photos or any description or the writing is cutoff. Finally we were able to get a physical menu which was the menu they use as flyers to handout. It was much easier to navigate but the in house prices were more expensive by $2-$4 in some cases. I asked the waiter for his recommendation and he said the HBK spl Chicken Biriyani is by far the most popular. One thing to note, there is no description of what exactly it was. In all, we ordered garlic naan, chef special cheese naan, butter chicken, HBK spl Chicken Biriyani, and Malabar kothu paratha. They brought everything to the table at once except the biriyani came much later. I didn't want anyone to wait so told them to start. They may have assumed we were all sharing so that may be why it came at different times. Overall, the food was ok. Nothing too special. The HBK special is boneless pan fried chicken pieces and also bone-in chicken pieces. There was quite a bit of biriyani and kothu, the butter chicken seemed like not too many pieces of meat. Service was just ok. No one came to check on us and the server forgot our requests a few times. We finally got up and approached the staff to get what we needed. They weren't too busy in house but there seemed to be a lot of pickup orders. I would come again at a different time and try some other dishes, I don't think we ordered the right things. Will also stop by and try the weekend buffet and update my review accordingly.
