The vibe in the restaurant was lively with 80s music playing. It was crowded on a Saturday night. Service was a bit chaotic. Multiple people would ask if we needed anything then they would disappear. The item we asked for would never arrive unless we asked again. I really miss the original Indian restaurant that was there. Probably will not visit again and try other Indian places in Issaquah.

We decided to try Masthi for date night. Parking was nearby and had lots of space. When we entered,…read morethe restaurant was expertly decorated with an exotic botanical feel. It really was beautiful in all areas and the music was authentic and the perfect volume. We ordered the tandoori chicken and it arrived at the table sizzling on the iron plate. It was the best we'd ever had, full of spices and fall off the bone tender. The server was great with tips and I liked that we could adjust the spiciness. Next was the lamb keema biryani. Again, excellent flavor and we loved the sauces served with it. The raita was just right. The garlic naan was fresh and hot. For dessert, we ordered the mango lassi, chai tea, and shared the rasmalai dessert. All excellent quality with perfect texture, temperature, snd sweetness. We were very impressed. The only reason I gave only four stars instead of an enthusiastic five, is because when we entered we were excited to sit down in the beautiful dining room to enjoy our first meal there. Instead we just kept going and were led further and further back until we reached the sports bar area and were seated with no one else around for the whole meal. There was seating available in the main dining room. It felt very isolated and detracted from our overall experience. We'll be back but next time we'll request to be seated with the general population. That aside, I highly recommend!

I have been to Kanishka several times over the last few years, and I've been pretty disappointed by…read morethe repeated instances of poor service. The food is usually delicious, and the service is usually fine, but there always seems to be something that throws off our dining experience here. For example, we dined in last Sunday for dinner, and were promptly seated. We ordered the garlic naan to share, and our vegetarian friend ordered the Paneer Makhni. However, when the dish arrived, she took a bite and discovered that there were chicken pieces inside, and when we alerted the server, we didn't even receive an apology. They took away her plate, which had some rice and garlic naan, and gave her a new plate with a new order of the Paneer Makhni, and did not replace the rice and garlic naan that was lost due to their mistake. I feel that giving a vegetarian or vegan person a dish with meat is a huge mistake, and I was very disappointed by the lack of an apology and the lack of an effort to make things right. On the happy side, the garlic naan was tasty, and I personally ordered a chicken kabob dish that was covered in sauce, which was phenomenal. Another example is that for 3 or 4 visits, we interacted with the same server. He always greeted us with "ni hao" even though we are not Chinese. Even worse, on multiple occasions, after we paid for the food with credit card, he would make up some lie about how the card reader was broken for the tip portion, and he would ask for a cash tip that he pocketed. We've never had this issue with any other server, and I've even seen this guy tell other groups the same lie about the card reader not working for the tip portion, even though it worked fine for the main payment. In summary, although Kanishka seems to have some food quality control issues, the food is delicious, and the service can be a wide range from very poor to good.

We went as a family and the ambience felt warm and comfortable. Right when we entered, we were greeted by a gentleman who seemed like the owner, and after dinner we had a really nice conversation. That kind of hospitality is rare and it stood out. The thali is unlimited, and the staff comes around frequently to refill and ask what you want more of. The flavors overall are bold and satisfying. Standouts for me: * Khichdi (favorite) * Gujarati kadhi with khichdi: pure comfort food * Aamras: easily a highlight * Dal baati: exactly what I wanted * Paneer curry: solid and tasty The mix veg was average, but everything else more than made up for it. Service was helpful throughout and parking was easy with plenty of spots. If you love thali, this place is a must.
