We wanted food so we showed before 6 pm, sat outside and served fast. Pleasantly surprised at how " fusion" would work with Indian. I went with the suggested "forbidden taco" and she wanted the Saag Paneer" both excellent and we ordered extra kebabs to share. The fusion TexMex/Indian works and the service was fast and friendly, a great early dinner. read more

I've been meaning to try this place since I saw it on my Uber Eats page. And finally made the drive over. The customer service was decent. My menu was dirty with food on it which honestly grossed me out. I was surprised by lack of vegetarian options since it's an Indian fusion place. A good tofu or vegetable curry would have been a nice option on the menu. The samosas are really good. The Chana masala taco was okay. The size is a good size. And the fries were also pretty good. Good amount of parking. Wasn't too crowded on a Saturday afternoon. read more

Second time here... Forever customer! Food is FRESH and full of flavor. Service with heart, portions are good. It's a cute little place in Downtown San Marcos, and the atmosphere reflects the city! read more

Great spot to catch up with friends! We shared the loaded samosas (not pictured) and it was the perfect appetizer. I got the chicken tikka masala taco and it was decent, but I wish there was more chicken and that it was spicier! The flavor on the fries was good too, but I wish it was crispier! I loved sitting outside but there were a few flies (that's outside dining for you!), but overall the service and food were great! read more

This place has a very unique take on Indian food. They serve more like an Indian fusion with American that somehow does work. The service is very quick, and the food is packed with flavor just like it should be. My go to order is the curry trio so I can try 3 different chicken dishes or sometimes I get some Chana masala too. The place has a ramp on the side for those in need of it that I found very helpful. read more

North Street - Advice on what to do when you see this place pop up on Yelp - Indian Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

this might be a given since it's a fusion restaurant but do not come here expecting real indian food, coming from an actual indian! the food is more like indian inspired and is honestly pretty good if you haven't had real indian food and have no clue what to expect. i was excited to see chicken 65 on the menu, which is my favorite, and ordered the forbidden taco. it was huge but very disappointed to see the chicken wasn't anywhere close to chicken 65 and was more like chicken nuggets and a pretty underwhelming experience. i will say the menu items are very unique and intriguing, so i would come back to try some other things that stood out to me and hope they're better executed. my friend got the chana & spinach and said it was alright. as for the ambiance and service, 10/10, no complaints, had a great time! shout out to our server Evan! read more

North Street - forbidden Chicken 65 Taco Chana & Spinach - Indian Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

Ate there for the first time today. Great service and the food was amazing! Beer selection was perfect.

Really good food. My husband supposedly doesn't like curry, but ate the samosa burger into the paper underneath. I had the curry trio and suggested they increase their prices. The "flatbread" as they called the parantha was incredible. The paneer, everything was really good, and we met there coming from Georgetown and San Antonio, so the price for the food? Exceptional. Also great drink options. Non alcoholic and beer and cider. WHOA. Can not emphasize enough that people need to go there. read more

Great outdoor seating, great food, great drinks, fast service. That's the winning combination for a successful Friday night! If you love Mediterranean food and curry, check them out. read more

My fiancé and I were visiting San Marcos and stopped by the outlets. We weren't sure where to go for dinner in that area, so I did a quick search and found North Street Curry Shop, and it ended up being such a great find! We were excited to see that they had a few vegan options, which can be hard to come by sometimes. The open kitchen was fun to watch, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. You can really feel the positive energy as soon as you walk in. I ordered the Chana & Spinach, a traditional chickpea curry served with coconut rice, green chutney, and crispy papadum. It was delicious and definitely had some heat to it, which I enjoyed. My fiancé got the Curry Trio and loved every bite. We also shared the vegetable samosas, which are vegan, and by "shared" I mean I ate 2 1/2 and he had 1/2 ;) plus I ordered a Diet Coke. There wasn't a vegan dessert option, but my fiancé ordered the pistachio dairy pop and loved it. Everything was flavorful and fresh. My only small suggestion would be just a little more rice with the Chana & Spinach dish, but honestly, that's a minor thing. They have a nice outdoor seating area, which is perfect if the weather is warm enough. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and we'll definitely be back. Highly recommend if you're in the area! read more

We watched Good Taste with Tanji Patton yesterday and North Street Curry Shop @northsmtx was featured. It wasn't the first time they were on TV. We ventured to San Marcos for lunch today. It was a gorgeous day to sit outside. Hubby had a half pint of Two Pitchers Weekender, Dad had St. Arnold Root Beer, and I had Mango and Mint Lassi. We had to try the Curry Queso and Chips and the Vegetable Samosas. The mango chutney is the bomb. We shared the Curry Trio with the Butter Chicken, Chicken Tikka Masala, and Chana and Spinach. We had a couple of bites of the Mango Spinach Salad with Lemon-Ginger Vinegarette because we were so full. Brought home the leftovers. The food was worth the drive. Bailey was our attentive server. read more

Everything is always 5 stars!! The servers are very kind and knowledgeable. The chicken tikka masala is AMAZING!!

Indian. Beer. Coffee. I'm intrigued! What a cute, quaint and happy place for food or coffee! There's indoor or outdoor seating in lovely spaces. The menu consists of Indian cuisine, with traditional dishes like butter chicken, chicken tikka masala, paneer, and others. They have crafted Indian style tacos which are with a soft naan for rather than tortilla. One is plenty as they're quite large. Appetizers, we chose samosas loaded! There are burgers and other choices like chicken salad sandwiches, etc. Beer selection is extensive and crafty drafts, or a smaller selection of bottles is available. Beer is perfect temperature, cool and crisp. I felt that the service was friendly and attentive. I'm looking forward to visiting again! Hours are 11-10pm daily, which is great for late night and avoiding fast food. read more

So first when thinking I was getting Indian food I was not expecting this type of vibe. There was outdoor seating, high tables and a bar which was definitely giving burger joint which I can get with. Ian was our server and he was spot on all night giving 5 star service. Then came the food. The paratha was a 12/10... ABSOLUTE FIRE!!!! I could eat it all night. Chicken tikki masala was delish and the chicken piri piri with the vegetables skewers were awesome as well. Overall 9/10. The -1 is only because of the spicy chicken 65 didn't quite meet my standards though it was good, and the rice was just okay. It didn't hit the original flavor I enjoy so much at my first Indian restaurant. read more

It's a cute space. I love the front door since yellow is my favorite color. Lots of tables outside surrounded by trees. Then dining room is smaller than expected with an open kitchen concept. All the servers were friendly and greeted us when we walked in. Summer was our server and she gave great advice on which food to try since it was our first visit. The curry queso was delicious, but as expected: queso dip with all the curry spices added in. It's an interesting fusion of flavors. The Piri piri plate was so good. Big portions of tender chicken. My friend had the curry trio and she said all three were flavorful and not too spicy. read more

My wife and I picked up our son and daughter in law in New Braunfels to go for lunch in San Marcos. I was really happy when they said we were going to North Street Curry Shop. I had thought about going there when I was in town for the Master Naturalist Annual Meeting last month, but chose a different venue that I could walk to from my hotel. This place is housed in an old house on North Street about a block from Hopkins Street and about three blocks from the Square. Traffic was flowing pretty heavy for a Saturday, but you get out of it the minute you turn onto North Street. There is a parking lot on the side that should hold at least twenty cars and is a permeable parking lot. I feel like a lot of the plants were Texas natives, which I appreciate. We opted to eat indoors, although there is a nice outdoor area. The dining room was nicely decorated and smelled of enticing spices. There is a wall full of draft beer taps in the back. Fortunately for me, they had a really good non-alcoholic IPA. I took a picture of my vegetable samosa. Unfortunately, I forgot to get more when the main course came out. I ordered the curry trio. I chose chicken curry, chicken tikka masala, and saag paneer as my trio. My son ordered the trio with chicken curry, butter chicken, and chicken tikka masala. My daughter in law had the chana masala taco. My wife, less adventurous than most people, had an order of fries. Everyone loved their food. I really enjoyed the chicken dishes, but the saag paneer was the best I have ever had. In the car on the way to pick the kids up, I told my wife that saag paneer is spinach cooked to the consistency of canned spinach from our childhood with big cubes of delicious cheese in it. It has always been one of my favorites. Here at North Street, the spinach was not cooked to death. That made it so much better than any I had ever had. My son and I ordered the paratha on the side. Neither of us is a big fan of papadam. He made a taco out of his. I tore little pieces and used them to scoop mouthfuls of food. It was heavenly. Okay... I can't end this without giving a shoutout to our server Ian. He was absolutely fantastic. His friendly and welcoming personality made our dining experience even better. You've heard me rave about special servers before. Ian goes right up into my top five. He had answers for all of our questions. He got our order 100% correct. He smiled and was friendly at all times. You could just sense that he is very happy working for North Street. read more

Being our first time - our waitress was helpful in pointing us the right way and making sure we were being taking care of all through our stay. We found out afterwards that you can level up the heat level on your dishes - so next time we are bringing the fire on!! Let Love Lead! read more

I am not shy about my mixed feelings regarding this place, so let's get right to it: Let me start by saying up front that this food isn't authentic, but it's good. If you come here looking for traditional Indian dishes, you're just disappointing yourself and there's no Oscar for your performance. Accept it for what it is. Just know that they've figured out how to make cultural fusion work between Indian and Tex-Mex and they are onto something. Spices are spices, and though they vary culturally, you can probably make one spicy cuisine resemble the structure of another spicy cuisine with a little thought and effort. Curry in QUESO!?!!! YEE-HAW, and I'm here for it. But let me get to what bothers me about this place other than the lack of diversity of the waitstaff and the overall, dare I say it???...**cultural appropriation** (I didn't see one Indian person in sight the several times I've visited, but there might be one??? I digress): The college kids here treat this place like an upscale frat house. They cling to each other in the corner chatting like they're at a bar...sitting down like THEY are the customer when they are supposed to be working the floor making sure drinks are refilled and customers are happy. They simply act like it is a PRIVILEGE for customers to be in THEIR space while they socialize with one another and provide "barely there" aloof service. It's tacky. You must check on your customers, people working here! A greet/take the order/slap the food down and GOODBYE approach isn't good in the SERVICE industry...and whoever made it acceptable here is responsible for this wayward ship. Who is running this little operation? A fraternity president? Get in there now and correct your staff, please. I can overlook the lack of diversity and the appropriation since the food is indeed good... but the behavior on display here is off putting. read more

Great service and delicious food. I look forward to another visit next time I'm in town!

This is an interesting concept where we enjoyed the food and service. It's more or less a fusion restaurant, with emphasis on the combination of Indian and Mexican food. The waiter knew the menu and helped us with our selections. I had the Tica Tacos, which I found to be both filling and delicious. They also have liquor license and I enjoyed a beer. There is on site parking that we found adequate, although we went earlier than most would. I would defiantly return here. read more

Northstreet is one of the only Indian spots I've found in San Marcos, conveniently located right outside the Square. It's got bold flavors, a cozy ambiance, and makes for a solid date night pick. The vibe almost feels like a Mexican-Indian fusion, but don't be intimidated--it works, and the food is good. Their cocktail menu has a nice variety, and I went with the sangria--strong and well-balanced. The servers know their stuff, offering great recommendations and allowing substitutions (we swapped the butter chicken nachos for fries, and no regrets there). It's a little pricier than your average college-town meal, but if you've got a bit to splurge, it's worth it. Definitely try their tacos--they don't skimp on the fillings--and don't skip the mango drink! read more

North Street - Indian Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

Came here for some Indian and was intriguied by the indian tex-mex but ended up going more indian. This restaurant was in a cute little area of san marcos and had a nice patio but was too hot outside. We ordered the samosas ans they were very good. Fresh, crisp, with very nice chutneys to go along with it. I also got the curry trio cause options. The flavors were good, a bit mild but the apices that were there played together well. I got the butter chicken, tikka masala, and saag paneer. To all the people complaining about no naan, they have paratha, which i personally enjoy more than naan but to each their own. Service was also great and we had a super nice and friendly waitress, nina. She made sure our waters were full and that we were enjoying our meals. I ended up docking a star cause we got dessert and it wasn't anything special. If anything, it was quite overpriced for a cookie... cookies were smaller than my palm and cost about $5. Other than the dessert, i think everything else was great! It'd be nice if you could adjust the spice a bit more but overall, some great indian food in the middle of texas! read more

Nestled in the heart of a college town, I initially thought this little curry shop might be your typical student-centric spot with distracted and unmotivated staff. I couldn't have been more wrong. From the moment I walked in, I was met with friendliness, attentiveness, and a level of service that truly surprised me. I arrived about thirty minutes before my friends and set up my laptop to get some work done while I waited. During that time, multiple staff members checked in to see if I needed anything, going out of their way to make sure I was comfortable. Our particular server was sweet and incredibly accommodating. It was clear to me that she was genuinely trying to curate a great experience for us. The atmosphere was cozy, the vibes were relaxed, and the food -- delicious. The samosas were good, though pretty standard. But the Paneer Tikka Masala Tacos? Out of this world! I've had plenty of Indian-Tex-Mex fusion back in Austin, but this place delivered one of the best renditions I've ever tasted. If I'm ever back in San Marcos, I'll go out of my way to visit this gem again. It's rare to find a spot that nails both service and food so perfectly, and this curry shop certainly did just that. The fond memories will linger for a while; I'm sure of that. read more

North Street - Paneer Tacos - Paneer tikka masala, coco rice, queso fresco, white cabbage, avocado, cilantro, tamarind date chutney, jalapeño crema - Indian Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

My friends rave about this place. Although I think the food is decent (at most), it's not very impressive. This place feels extremely Americanized. I think the craziest thing is that they don't have naan on the menu LOL. Paneer Tikka Masala - The flavor of the sauce was extremely mild. When I think of Indian food, I think of a bunch of different spices and complexities. However, when eating here, I think North Street is to Indian food as Panda Express is to Chinese food. At first glance, I can't say that I've ever eaten paneer as huge blocks. They were equivalent to the size of fish sticks!!! I must say this is very unique because I've never seen paneer cooked this way. Eaten with the mild sauce, this paneer almost had no flavor. They do have some interesting options like curry queso, which I think is a unique idea, but isn't executed very well. Overall, I would not bring my friends here as a must-go restaurant in San Marcos. I would come here again if my friends are craving it, but it would not be a restaurant that I suggest. read more

Food was good, service lacked. Our sever Mackenzie was on her phone scrolling through Instagram while the kitchen called her name to deliver our order to the table. We watched our food sit in the window while she sat at the table across from us on her phone, and we noticed the same thing happen to the couple behind us. Our biggest issue was when we saw her talking to a coworker at the bar while in her phone. As she was talking, she was sticking her hand inside the back side of her leggings. She proceeded to serve food without washing her hands after they had been inside of her pants We've come plenty of times, and the food is always amazing! We've never had any bad experiences with the quality of food the cooks put out. read more

Upon arrival you could smell the spices. I just knew a mouth watering experience awaited us. We opted to try the boneless Chile wings, veg samosas. The chicken wings had way too much breading and needed more Chili . The samosas were wonderful. We opted for the Curry Trio, Chicken Marsala, Butter Chicken and Curry Chicken as well as a size of Saag Paneer. Good news, if you've ever eaten at a Bawarchi Biryani you know it's super spicy and I mean hot, spicy often ruining the experience for me. These dishes were very mild allowing you to enjoy the spices where there were some. The Chicken Marsala and Butter Chicken were perfect but the saag paneer was bland. Little to no flavor. Disappointed. Service is warm and attentive. Maybe an off day based on the other reviews. read more

If you're on your way to San Marcos of San Antonio, you HAVE to stop by this place. Every time I think about the chicken tikka masala taco I just reminisce of the 45 min drive - but trust me it is WORTH IT! The food is all so flavorful, and you have to get the loaded samosas, curry taco for some yummy Mexican Indian fusion. Yes, I said it. A fusion that nobody knew they needed but it is oh so good and delicious. The paratha is layered, buttery soft, and flaky. You'll want to come back for more. Prices are decent, portions are generous. I was full off of one taco! Service was very nice and prompt, and the atmosphere was homey but also modern. Cute patio outdoors too if you can withstand the tx heat! One con is the constant flies - they kept buzzing around no matter if you were indoors or out. A must try when you're in Texas! read more

It tasted watered down or canned compared to what you'd get at other Indian restaurants read more
