Aight, *** stars for the food, another * for service and ambiance. I'm an Indian living in NY with an inexhaustible supply of excellent Indian food and I'm disappointed with the taste. We ordered vegetable biryani, naan, egg burji taco and millionaire curry. Every dish was mediocre. I guess this ain't a bad place to try Indian food considering there aren't many in the area. The ambiance is interesting, hippy and the bar with an idol of Indian god Ganesh in between bottles of alcohol was hilariously blasphemous. There's outdoor seating too. read more

Came with a group of 5 and we were seated immediately. We ordered the Tikka Con Queso to share, and I got the Millionaires Curry with a side of garlic naan. The queso was really good, and the garlic naan is to die for! However, I did not really enjoy my curry. The description says it's cooked with fresh tomatoes, but I did not taste any hint of tomato. The sauce was kind of bland, and there was an odd flavor to it that didn't sit well with me. I should've picked another curry or even tried the Biryani. Honestly, the highlight of the whole meal was the questo + garlic naan. I'm not sure I'd come back again just because I've had much better Indian food than this. read more

Ate here today for the first time and I loved it. They had a killer jalapeño naan that was the perfect amount of chewy for me. I ordered the millionaires curry with chicken and it was perfect. This curry is tomato based And I strongly recommend it. The spices are executed perfectly and the rice spiced with star anise was great. They carry Dogfish Head India Brown Ale which I love and is hard to find around town but perfectly compliments a spicy curry. My lady friend had their chicken korma which was so good. It was almond and cream based and was the perfect balance between sweet and spicy. I ordered dal soup as well which was killer. The best I've ever tried by far. Salty and smooth. A perfect soup for the colder weather. They had some interesting Mexican/Indian fusion tacos that will be on my list to try for my next visit. I will be back. read more

The best Indian food I've had in town, I've never been disappointed. I've done dine-in, take-out, & delivery and every time I love the experience. The garlic naan is crucial to any meal, the vindaloo is a great spicy option but if you'd prefer less spicy I've also gotten the tikka masala and the sauce was delicious. 10/10, my favorite Indian spot. read more

Delicious Indian food! We had Saag Paneer (get it with cream), Millionaire's Curry with Chicken and of course Garlic Naan. The naan is light & fluffy, perfect to sop up the delicious curries. Very reasonably priced, 3 of us and and drank for less than $20 a person. Parking lot in the back which in East Austin is awesome. Will definitely be back! read more

Nasha has long been one of my Austin staples. If my partner and are just aren't in the mood to cook, and the never ending indecision battle begins, it's usually resolved by one of three places, and Nasha is definitely on that list. Reliable, delicious, creative, and great value. You could definitely call me a fan. It's been a while since we've gone in person now, but I recall the service is always stellar. Staff are amicable and seem like genuinely cool people. I feel like I always end up chatting about something interesting. I'd recommend this place to anyone. read more

Nasha? More like Nausea. If you're here for anything other than appetizers, you're in for a disappointing experience. This is the whitest Indian food I've ever had in my life. The lamb tikka Masala was far sweeter and creamier than I've had from any other establishment. It lacked any depth of flavor, and the pale red color likely came from food coloring, rather than actual tomato or spices. So not only was the Tikka Masala overly creamy and bland, the remnants of flavor it DID have completely missed the mark. The tikka masala tacos were just as disappointing. The tortillas were literally just Mission tortillas that were warmed up, the flavors of the taco were basically non-existent, and it was topped with Walmart's finest Kraft American cheese. I wish I could list any redeeming factors of this establishment, but unfortunately there are none. Don't dine here if you expect even a semblance of authentic Indian cuisine. read more

Was in and out in 10 minutes. The first table we got seated at had meat/rice on the table and on a chair.. Could be seen from 10 feet away yet the wai staff couldn't see it while walking us there. We pointed it out and she led us to another table. Once seated I went to the restroom and found, in the restroom and the corridor outside dead cockroaches (September 15 at 1215 pm). We walked right out and are never going bad. Sad, because the food at the owners other restaurant was phenomenal. But pests are simply a big no no. read more

I had lunch here with some coworkers after we completed a volunteer project on the southeast side. One of my colleagues couldn't stop raving about the place. Well, it lived up to the hype! The food is delicious! I had the shahi korma with chicken. There was an explosion of flavor in my mouth after the first bite. The cashew/almond sauce was perfect. The prices are right and they have GF options as well. Plus, they are open late on the weekend (1am) if you are wanting some food after catching a show somewhere. Oh, and don't forget to get the garlic naan! It melts in your mouth. read more

Very friendly, great big pour of happy juice for me. Food - samosas were very good. My korma was... interesting. Too strong a clove flavor for me, but still tasty. Millionaire curry was good. Thought it was going to be creamy but it was not at all. Love the late hours, good prices. read more

Wonderfully creative menu and great atmosphere. The Indian-TexMex combination works and is delicious. Recommend starting with the Tika con Queso and resist the temptation to order more so you can save room for dinner. I had the chicken poblano with tika sauce which was great and my family had lamb korma and chicken tika tacos. This place is a gem! read more

If a spice loving desi like me can't handle "desi hot" does that mean that the definition of desi by an Indian restaurant is wrong? Asked for a desi hot korma (which said it will be sweet and spicy) and they gave us a bowl of red chili paste Liked the ambience and service so I am rating a 3. read more

This has been my favorite spot in Austin to get food for awhile. Get the millionaire's curry. It's utterly fantastic. I love this place and the people that work here so much. read more

The atmosphere was nice, the drinks were good, but the food was so unappealing I'll never go here for a meal again. If I end up being nearby and craving a cocktail, I would at least consider it. Do not recommend to anyone. read more

Just plain gross looking. Call the health inspector! And staff I came in contact with were not very friendly. Looks like food poisoning waiting to happen if you want any sort of drink. Dusty and musty! read more

I hate leaving negative reviews but when the food is subpar to bad, it's hard to overlook. Short story: ordered 3 dishes so we could sample a variety. The primary flavor was salty. Which is bonkers considering the spices available in this cuisines. Millionaire curry was barely decent but tangy. Cauliflower was ho-hum but salty. Kale w/ Chana had 2x the salt. And if he first response after informing the waiter is that you'll be charged to replace it, well, it leaves an even saltier taste in the tongue. To their credit, they didn't charge us. But, boy, the flavors are not even from this region of the world. Big ups to Tarka for their consistency and tasty offerings read more

Pros: very flavorful and unique. Mahi mahi taco had great Indian flavors. Tacos come with side of lentil soup - perfect for a chilly day. Outdoor seating (only part is covered by a tarp, so not ideal if it's raining). The guacamole with the tacos was fresh and delicious. Cons: chicken in chicken taco was too dry which made it a little chewy, but still had good flavor. Enchilada plate comes with 3 but they all have to be the same - they wouldn't do 2 chicken and 1 spinach, even after offering to pay more. Outdoor seating isn't well covered. read more

If you're like me and a bit nervous to try Indian cuisine, this is the place to go! Nash's is a spectacular Mexican & Indian fusion. They are decently priced, great atmosphere, right on easy 7th, did I mention it's DELICIOUS . OMG don't get me started on the naan bread, it is mouthwatering . You can order it plane or as garlic naan. This venue is a bit small so not ideal for larger groups. the parking lot is small, but I do have to say, of all the times I've been, I've never had to park out on the street. read more

Went on a Saturday night and it was super-packed: a good sign? There was no host/hostess at the stand, so my party and several others waited for about 10 minutes to get on the wait list. The place is so small that if you're waiting for a table, you're going to be in someone's way no matter where you stand. The wait wasn't too long, and we got seated and had a friendly and attentive server who did a great job overall. The food is interesting: Indian-Mexican fusion. The food reviews at my table were mixed. Some love and some dislike. I would recommend going here when it's not peak hours for a pleasant experience. read more

Stopped here to get a late bite since a friend came to town and was craving Indian. We asked to be seated outside but our order wasn't taken for almost fifteen minutes.. I had already eaten so I asked for a chai with some dessert. My Friend had an order of tika masala which for the both of us was pretty average but in comparing it to other places we've only tried before. The restaurant itself is very nice and the menu offers up some Tex Mex variety. The naan was fresh but was a separate charge. My dessert didn't come out until the tika masala was halfway done and so I was left to drink my chai by itself. It wasn't even hot. Bad first impression. Hesitant about coming back. read more

Worst Indian food I've ever had. Had the CTM and it was mediocre at best. I've had both authentic and Americanized Indian food and this wasn't like any CTM I've ever had and not in a good way. Not a traditional or "fusion" tasting CTM, just different and not as good as the traditional classic. Much sweeter. I also ordered medium spice and it had no spice whatsoever, not even mildly. It was also a $13 take out CTM and it ended up being almost $16 when I picked it up? The server was really rude and I was in a rush so I didn't have time to question it. I tipped out of obligation and ended up with an $18 CTM that was mediocre and not even as good as Tarka.... never coming back. Thanks for nothing rude server girl! read more

Nasha is definitely our go-to spot for good easy Indian food. Highly recommend stopping in or picking up for to-go!

(Nasha is located in the hip end of 7th street that is the niche to many quirky eateries. The exterior of the restaurant features an expansive, vibrant mural that works as a pre-meal photo op for all of you social-media savvy folk! Serving up dishes that playfully combines both Indian cuisine with Mexican influences, Nasha had some commendable items that didn't break my bank(!!!). I was very impressed with how Nasha got all the details right by incorporating the use of steel "thali" plates and cups into the holistic dining experience. They created a culinary diverse palate by incorporating lesser known Indian dishes such as malvani and konkani, which perfectly complement mainstream dishes like paneer tikka masala into the menu. For the food: My friend and I ordered vegan tofu curry tacos, which packed in quite a bit of flavor for something that was so small. The mango lassi (which is usually a hit or miss for Indian restaurants) wasn't too sweet, but had the right notes of fruitiness and yogurt - definitely a good place for a first timer to gauge their palate for mango lassi. The saag paneer was the perfect quantity to be split between to people, and paired well with the soft, fluffy garlic naan (worth the extra dollar to go with the garlic variety). While Nasha aimed to coalesce Indian and Mexican cuisine, I thought the Indian cuisine was more prominent, with the Mexican cuisine being a creative presentation sidekick. Will definitely be back to try their curried margs and cocktail lassis read more

Was curious about TexMex Indian fusion so we cabbed it here from south congress. We had just missed the lunch special time - it ends at 2. So we ordered a la carte. Had the chicken tacos which were good but didn't taste particularly Indian. And then got the millionaire curry with paneer. Enjoyed the tanginess of it but it was very spicy. I had read the previous reviews where ppl had said it wasn't very spicy. So I ordered it spicy. My husband who is half Indian couldn't finish it. Next time will get just regular. We sat outside on the patio so our clothes wouldn't smell after lunch. It was cool out there but there were wasps and bees and I have a disproportionate fear of them. Overall it was fine but I don't think I need TexMex Indian fusion. Just regular Indian is good for us. read more

My new favorite Indian food in town! They were amazing. I got the vindaloo with chicken - medium spice. My husband always complains about rice not being cooked properly when we go out but even he had ZERO complaints! I also have a gluten allergy and I can attest that it was safe. I didn't have even the slightest reaction so I know no cross contamination took place. We def are keeping this place in our monthly rotation read more

I love coming here. I love sitting outside and the food is great. I went this weekend and NO ONE WAS WEARING A MASK. The girl taking our order and charging our food, the servers bringing our food to the table, and anyone in restaurant staff. I was shocked. I should have left, I guess I will be back after there is a vaccine. read more

Nasha means vice, addiction, or even intoxication in hindi...this place quite the complete opposite. It was very repulsive...I ordered a lamb biryani and lamb saag. The spices weren't too bad. Medium was ok and hot added good flavor but instead of enhancing food it just burned and lingered. However, the flavors seemed very white washed and toned down to please the colonizers. The saag was literally just boiled spinach in a soup mixture. It was not well blended and seemed to separate. Saag is suppose to be creamy and pasty. Would not recommend someone paying $15+ dollars per entree for Indian food for poor quality tasting food and the amount they give you. Indian foods are suppose to make sure you at are full and satisfied, not disappointed. read more

This is my go-to Indian food place, especially for delivery. Everything I've had on the menu (tried most of the tofu curries, pakoda, samosas, chile rellenos, and paneer enchiladas) has been so delicious! Lots of solid vegetarian and vegan options. The Tex Mex and Indian fusion is one I never would have considered before but it works well. Definitely recommend! read more

I like the food, but I had a pretty negative experience with a manager this evening. I ordered online for pick up, but didn't realize the pick up time was set for ASAP. I called immediately to rectify my mistake, and push my pickup time 1.5 hours later. I was told they don't do pick up orders ahead of time. A little weird, but no big deal I asked if I could push my pickup time, and that I had already paid. I was told I couldn't change anything about the order because it was through a third party (the only pick-up option on their website). Instead of kindly offering a refund (or any solution) I was told by a manager "i can't do anything" and "I don't know what to tell you" multiple times. Not exactly a comfort to hear from a manager after you've paid, lol I've been working in kitchens for years, and I know the struggles of dealing with the 3rd party apps. But this was a problem that could easily have been solved with a pen and post-it note. I've done it countless times myself, I wouldn't even call it an inconvenience. Having extra notice isn't a problem in any kitchen I've heard of. So, if you want to change anything about your order, they won't do it. You need to get a refund through the app (takes 4-5 days to hit the bank), and reorder. I got the refund, but it wouldn't have been necessary if the manager just picked up a pen, or gave the kitchen a heads up. I didn't reorder, btw I had always really liked this place, the service and food has always been great, up until today. But there's also lots of good Indian food in the beautiful city. read more

Simply the best. I love this place. I have been coming for years. Service and food is perfect. Stop by

Very exciting finding a fun fusion like Indian and Tex Mex. I've tried several dishes and my favorite are by far the paneer enchiladas, the paneer quesadilla, and the Tikka con queso! Very enjoyable food and nice atmosphere. read more

Megan the manager is very unprofessional and aggressive. She brushed me off then argued with me at 11:10pm on a Monday night. The server was fine enough but the manager asked me to quiet down my Snapchat while I was at the bar, in a loud and crowded restaurant. When I told her it was inappropriate for her to ask me to quiet my Snapchat video without asking the other customers to do the same she brushed me off and decided to be passive aggressive and tell me it was my fault that she overstepped. She blamed me for her actions instead of listening to how she directly impacted a customers experience. She is not ready for managment. I will not be returning. And I will tell my friend not to visit. Trash bag experience, and while I'm being honest, the millionaire curry tasted like tomato sauce with a bag of veggies. read more

Sorry for the length - outline why I won't come back: - spent a long conversation with the bartender (who you order food from) that I have the genetic condition where cilantro tastes awful to me. He chatted with me about it and made conversation about how it sucks. I considered leaving the restaurant b/c he explained to me that nearly everything has cilantro and can't be removed. He then suggested me an appetizer & curry that didn't have cilantro cooked into it. I ordered both. Surprise, the appetizer had cilantro. The server who brought it out then used his fingers to pick up cilantro on my dish to say "see? It's just garnish. You can pick it off." (I mean, ok but I did make it a point? Also note that in the photo I included, I had most of it picked off by then) - $14 for a chicken curry ($4 up charge for chicken on a $10 base meal) and it was small in comparison to other Indian places in the area. - $9.50 for a margarita with mostly ice & took a while to to get considering that we were the only ordering table. The bartender cleaned off a big top before making our drinks that we ordered before they big top left. I will say that my friend got the Mexican Martini, and it did seem well worth it - The servers turned on the bright lights that shined in our faces to let us know they were closed ~15 minutes before they were actually closed. (However, we are sorry for being there so close to closing time. We got there at 10 but thought the bar closed at 12) The place was cute but the quality & quantity didn't match up. Would recommend Clay Pit on Guad read more

This is my third time trying this place, because I wanted it to be good so bad, but it disappointed every time. Paid $17 for a curry and somehow the rice was dry and soggy at the same time. On top of that the curry itself tasted like salsa and was too spicy without being flavorful. Wouldn't recommend this place to anyone! read more
