    For a cleaner meal, get the burroti in a bowl with roti on the side. The chai is AMAZING. Learned how to make it from one of the founders, vijay, at a Simmr event. Really nice guy!

    Calling this place the Indian chipotle is an apt description. Rice bowls, salad bowls and burritos but with indian food like chicken tikka instead of black beans. Quick service, and pretty decent food

    If you're trying to cut carbs but you still want that basmati goodness, get the salad bowl with *a little* rice on top. Perfection.

    The lamb is delish! The whole concept is as if chipotle went Indian. Lots of vegan and gluten free options. Yum!

    Salad bowl with chicken and spice souse is great, not every spicy dish makes you nose running but still be such tasty

    Lamb + tikka is pretty darn good. Finish it off with onions, tomatoes and tamarind.

    Get a burroti - they press a piece of fresh dough into a delectable bread right before your eyes!

    Best value meal. The rice bowl is scrumptious and sumptuous.

    Gets really busy after 12. The line moves fast and most people get it togo.

    I didn't really like it. I mean you can't mix Indian curries, pickles and yogurt all together. It becomes nasty tasting. They might all taste good separately.

    Their lava sauce is delicious. Make sure you get it on your burroti.

    Indian Chipotle without the machine-like efficiency. Delicious, though.

    An Indian Chipotle. Pretty good but ask for more sauce, they're a little stingy with it.

    Watery food, and whatever the meat was, it sure wasn't lamb. I know what lamb tastes like, and if that was lamb it was cooked to flavorless oblivion. Curry Up truck is way better and not that far away

    Decent food, but the buffet line is a little stupid because of the poor layout.
