Mushroom & eggplant rice bowl with cashew sauce is sooo yummy. And yes, best chai I’ve tried so far by far. Authentic , richly ethnic decor; friendly staff .

Scott Rose

Great food across the board. The place has an amateurish feel, in a good way - as if staff is all volunteers there because they love it.

Totally loved every single dish ... it's such a rare opportunity to be able to try different cuisines from 6 countries alongside silk road at once ... East is indeed east! ;)

Jaslin

Not sure how this is a Middle Eastern restaurant . It serves North/South Indian cuisine . Hands down, it serves the best chai ! I tried the 'Darjeeling' one, do give it a shot if you're there.

Armin NP

A mixture of foods from all over Asia. Or at least foods which non-Asians think it's Asian. "Persia 's Favorite" is by no means a Persian dish at all!

Arash Narchi

I had Persia 's favourite - it was great! Not exactly Iranian/Persian food but I can appreciate the effort for fusion

Payton Swick

Great vegan options ! Even vegan Chai !

Omar AlOmeir

The feast is awesome. Awesome vegetarian choices .

Awesome free sample chai all the time. Get the feast to fill your belly for the day. Fill up on awesome real wood and tree furniture . Gods above, I can't get enough of this place.
