Avi F.Avi Flamholz: Cilantro sauce technology and 4am closing win Roti Roll a special place in my heart. Unda aloo masala (potato, egg, peas) or chana masala (chickpea, always a 'special').

Allen M.Allen M: Phenomenal, just phenomenal. The Unda Aloo Masala, Chicken Malai, and Lamb Boti are all great.

Igor L.Igor Lenivtsev: Go for aloo masala frankie - it's #vegan and #spicy

Raghavan M.Raghavan Muthuregunathan: Paneer tikka masala is heaven . All chicken dishes can be replaced with Paneer for vegan guests

William H.William H: One of the better Indian joints in the neighborhood, though it can run on the pricey side. Tikka masala is solid, as are the mango lassis. Spinach soup is better than you'd expect.

Vee B.Vee Bee: There's lots of vegetarian options on the wkd lunch buffets. It's always delicious. I've now also enjoyed dinner off the menu. Vegetarian jalfreezi was excellent! It's mild though, so add some heat.
