I was a big fan, until I tried Mood Cafe down the block and had my mind blown. If you haven't been to both here and Mood for chaat/lassi, definitely try both and see what you think.
They give a good quantity of food so you may be able to share or take home. Be aware that crunchy items get soft at home.. Ask for separate containers
A favorite is the papri chaat ($5): crunchy, crispy fried dough pieces, cilantro , chickpeas , mango , chilies, tamarind sauce , yogurt and masala spice, all tossed together into a filling treat. Read more
have chicken biryani here! its awesome... and the samosas , well , its as good as one can get in India!!!
The samosa chaat is addictive. It's a crazy delicious combo of hot and cold, spicy and sweet, crunchy and creamy.
Faluda, mango lassies , and great chaat !

Hassan is the man. Samosa chaat and rose lassi were both delicious. Next time I'm going to try Mango mint lassi. - Hello Bear
Everything is great here. I recommend getting an order of samosas with your entree. If you want to dine in, get the buffet so you can sample everything. - Samantha Hill
Yum, Yum!! Din din. Jumbo Shrimp Karahi which is large shrimp cooked in traditional style with fresh tomatoes, green peppers, ginger, other herbs and spices, rice & Nan. I love Indian food!! Mazadar! - Lisa Durden
Fantastic bread. The hangover sounds like a lot (because it is), but it's delicious. Make sure you get Bui's sauce too. - Campbell Bird
Good coffee place, try out the sweet potato burrito if you are vegetarian/vegan. - Faraz
