They don't have falafel, but I highly recommend any of their vegetable sides. I got the 4 veggie plate and loved everything. They make amazing flatbread that is worth the trip alone. After lent, I still go back and like everything I've tried. They are extremely friendly. And whoever is at the counter will warmly welcome you. They have a pretty simple menu and tap to pay conveniently located on the counter. There is nothing in particular I would recommend as everything I've tried I'd order again.

I got my order within 10 minutes from ordering. 4/5 for food as the lentil soup which is called sambar in South Indian language was not as flavorful as I expected. Dosa was decent. Could have been crispier. Chutney was mediocre as well. Chicken 65 was good. Although not authentic but people from various parts of India have their version of chicken 65. Not my favorite but it's not bad. Service was good. Price is nominal. Ambiance is decent as well. They are connected to the Indian grocery story next door.

The combination of Mexican burritos and tandoori seems odd which caught my attention. (One of the counter women was Hispanic, the other is the owner and she is Pakistani from England and wears a head scarf, so the food is home-cooked and authentic.) The place was almost empty on a Wednesday but there were two other customers. The food is wholesome and filled me up but it's not highly spiced the way most Indian food is. But it's not cheap, I spent $12 on lunch for one (no drink). I gave them 3 stars for good ingredients, authentic but mild taste, friendly service, and slightly high prices. A positive experience as a whole.

Unfortunately, his overall appearance was quite disheveled, which did not make a particularly good first impression. After waiting a few minutes, I was warmly greeted by Jasmine B. I ordered a 9-ounce glass of Blackberry Sangria, the Toscana Filet and Shrimp, and, for dessert, a John Cole. The pasta was served hot; however, both the meat and shrimp were only lukewarm. The John Cole, consisting of ice cream and cake, had already melted by the time it reached my table. While I cannot say for certain, the temperature of the food may have been related to the workload Jasmine was handling. Jasmine was serving a large party of ten, several other tables in the booths, guests seated on the outside patio, and she was also responsible for the bar. That is an enormous amount of responsibility for one server. Despite being stretched in so many directions, Jasmine handled everything professionally and remained attentive and courteous throughout my meal. She certainly deserves credit for doing an excellent job under very demanding circumstances. There was, however, another issue that should not be overlooked: the menu itself had food particles on it. Menus should be clean and presentable, particularly in a restaurant where guests are preparing to dine. Overall, while Jasmine provided professional and attentive service under difficult circumstances, the lukewarm food, melted dessert, and unclean menu detracted considerably from the dining experience.

The restaurant is clean and tidy, but small. (Note: this location was previously a Capriotti's Sandwich Shop, and the space was originally one business that was split in half for two separate food places.) This Stafford location marks their fourth in Virginia, and they have approximately 50 locations overall. Ordering can be done on a kiosk or at the counter. The menu includes platters, gyros, and salads, as well as burgers and chicken wings, tenders, or nuggets. For the platters, gyros, and salads, you can choose between chicken, lamb, combo, falafel, kofta, or fish. The platters come with French fries, salad and rice (regular or spicy). They have several sauces including white, hot, green, and barbecue. I ordered the chicken platter, regular rice, salad with no onions, and white sauce on the side. When I tell you that this food was flavorful and the portions are big, man! The chicken was tender and had such great flavor. The "regular" rice was obviously not spicy but was full of flavor (cumin? cardamom? sumac? Whatever they seasoned it with was yummy). The fries were hot, crunchy, and coated with a tasty seasoning. They tasted great by themselves or dipped in the white sauce. The salad is good and was topped with an herbed, diced tomato-cucumber salad and delicious pickled cabbage. I look forward to trying other things on the menu, but it'll have to wait since I have so much food leftover from this platter, enough for at least one more meal but likely 2. :)

The flavors of the food were decent without too much spice. The mango lassie drink was outstanding! My greatest concern with my visit was not even the 2 hour wait for my meal (I am somewhat patient and understand the overwhelming feeling a busy first night can cause). My concern, as I waited at the window, was the food handling. I watched as the gentleman prepared the seekah kabob of raw beef shaped into a tube onto a skewer and prepared raw chicken onto skewers, in addition to other drippy raw meats, and then help to prepare plates for serving. The young lady at the window was diligently using gloves and changing after payments, for the most part. I wanted to say something, but after a two hour wait and knowing this is their first day, I held my tongue, watched as the gentleman touched all over the outside of my container, and a little bit inside, and took my $40 meal home. I had a lamb chop platter with spinach, salad, and rice with naan, and I wanted to try the butter chicken as well so I got that with chick peas. I threw out the salad, put my food onto a plate and heated everything before blessing my food. Final thoughts...I am giving three stars because I see the potential and would not want a negative review to blow their confidence, and I hope they take time to assess this evening to make improvements on an awesome food truck idea.
