Our server was the only person working but we still didn't have to wait long to be served. The thali lunch is affordable and I enjoyed having so many different options! I got the goat curry thali lunch and the curry was so good and nicely spiced. The goat was also very tender. I can't wait until the next time I can come back for some Indian food!

I have had a better Indian food, but may be I didn't ordered the right food. The food was either…read moreextremely salty or no salt at all. Sambar could be flavorful or chutney could be more coconut, or dosa filling could use salt. Overall the dish was bland. The gobi Manchurian was too salty. I am just glad we only ordered one chole Bhatura the only reason we actually went to them. It was total flop. The chole was super high on raw spices (uncooked) like they were added as an after thought, with no tanginess, even the basic salt was missing. The bhatura's were flat, overcooked and oily. Definitely wouldn't be returning for those. However, may be other items on the menu are redeemable.

I've been coming to the Pinch of Spice food cart since they opened. It's been my favorite Indian…read morefood restaurant in the PNW since they opened but I think I'm done with them now. Early on they were very friendly and they even invited me to the cart door to show how they cooked the naan bread once. However, their mobile ordering system has been routinely frustrating and after my experience yesterday and today I'm not interested in dealing with them any longer. They've had us bounce from UberEats to Joyous then to Door Dash apps for ordering. I placed a lunch order yesterday through door dash and all looked great (never mind that they have two listings on Door Dash and one of them is "Prince of Spice" and the other is "Pinch of Spice" which is really sketchy), the order completed, I was charged $33 (ikr), and it showed I could pick up my food in about 20 minutes. When I arrived the cart was closed and the worker who was in there was doing organizational stuff and no cooking was going on. I knocked and asked and he didn't speak english. He called someone else to have him talk to me over the phone, but that guy didn't speak any English either. After about 10 minutes of me asking them to repeat themselves and speak slower, I finally figured out that they were telling me that they were closed all day, it was a Thursday. Why don't they update their schedule on their ordering apps? So I then went to Door Dash app and tried to cancel the order. The app said they would review and let me know by email in an hour. I never received an email from DD. So this morning I try to go and refund the order through the DD app and it denied it. So then around 11am I start thinking, "well maybe my original order is still in the cart restaurant's system and I can call them and get it today instead." So I called the cart and got one of them. I explained the situation but couldn't understand them again. I repeated my name a couple of times thinking that would help him find the order from yesterday in his system. Then finally thought he was asking what was in the order so I mentioned the 2 dishes and he said "oh ok! I make for you.", which I foolishly thought meant he found the order and would now complete it. I asked when it would be ready and he said "20 minutes". So I show up again today and he pulls the bag out and points to the pay iPad that says $32. I tried to explain that I had already paid yesterday for it and I showed him the order on Door Dash. He looked at my phone then called someone else. Probably the same guy as the day before. They spoke in Indian for a bit then he handed me the phone and I tried to explain to the other guy on the phone again. The guy on the other end told me that they had cancelled the order and that I needed to get a refund from Door Dash. I left with no food again and still out $33. So I then called DD support. Grok came through clutch with the number because the DD app doesn't give it away that I could find. And after getting through the AI gatekeeper to a live person she told me that they are unable to refund because the restaurant said that they completed the order and gave me the food. And that the order was not cancelled by the restaurant. The DD rep asked me if I had taken a photo of the closed business or if I had a screenshot of a text conversation with them about it being closed and I don't since I just spoke to them and didn't even think to take a photo of the closed cart. Remember to do this for future issues. She said that because if DD issues the refund it will be taken from the restaurant's earnings so they need proof to be able to contest the restaurant's claims. She then said that she would call the restaurant and discuss it with them. She put me on hold for about 10 minutes then came back. She said she tried several times but they did not answer. I asked her what number she called and it was the same phone number that I had called an hour earlier and immediately got someone at the restaurant/cart. I can't prove this but I assume they know the Door Dash phone number and so they just ignore it so they can keep the money for the order they lied about cancelling. So I'm out $33 and two lunches, but Pinch/Prince of Spice is now out a loyal customer for a measly $33. Note: I've lived in multiple foreign countries and I've always made an effort to learn at least the basics of the language of the country I'm in and how to pronounce it correctly enough so they can understand me. And when I haven't been able to learn fast enough I've used translator apps. Pinch/Prince of Spice has made ZERO effort to provide the basics of customer service beyond get money, give food. Note 2: this review isn't about Door Dash, but I will say their support process is way more complicated and frustrating than other apps I have used. The Customer Support Rep, Rucha was excellent and she did her best when I finally got connected with her.

This is my 300th review on Yelp! Yay!…read more Anyway, we came here on a friend's high recommendation because everything sounded amazing! Mexican and Indian fusion?! I mean come on! Best of both worlds! I want to give a little grace in this review since perhaps I came in with high expectations so some of the dishes fell a little short because of that? It was empty on a Tuesday around lunch time but we were greeted warmly by who I assumed were the owners. The decor is fun, vibrant, and colorful in the small space. They are also popular with takeout and delivery. I actually really enjoyed my Lamb Vindaloo Tacos! The lamb was tender and it did have a good amount of spice. My friend and I both thought the Dirty Chicken Masala Fries and her regular Chicken Tikka Masala could have had more flavor. BUT with that said, my leftovers tasted better the next day! It really is a local mom and pop spot with such a cool concept and the food was good! I look forward to coming back on another day to try something different!

"I wish we had for-real takeaway here" --Intel friend from Dublin…read more Well, buddy, we do. Hillsboro just need to do the thing it hates most: Walk. And not JUST walk: Walk half a block off a main drag. Nestled on third in a space that looks exactly how a takeout spot should, Chaat Cafe has spent years slinging its naan-wrapped sandwiches and to-go cups of mango lassi to the loyal lunch and dinner crowds that love them. Yes, there are full dishes, tandoori and biryani here, but if you aren't coming for chaat and wraps--the to-go items that the place is built around--then you're dooming yourself to a less-than-ideal experience. Ifran is one of Hillsboro's few culinary geniuses and succeeded here by figuring out where others have failed: Full-service Indian restaurants take time and patience. You either need to run a full buffet, have tiffins packed and ready or come up with a lighter, faster option that your local audience will embrace. The chaat-and-wrap solution is brilliant, and I can't count the number of samosa and tikka-masala-wrap lunches I've had here. But this place really should have a line out the door more often than it does. Maybe when the new bars open and the expensive food carts drive people to other corners of downtown, they'll find this place and love it. More likely, folks like me need to do a lot more talking.

We were quickly seated and served water and a basket of warm naan. The buffet is in a L shape with the pakoras, rice, and lots of different vegetarian curries, and on the other side there is Indian pizza and the meat curries. The last section has fresh salad and fruits and the lovely Indian desserts. They have hot Chai and mango lassi dispensers so you can get as much as you want! It's not glamorous but I loved the variety and the drinks "on tap" Everything was flavorful and filling. The only thing is that some of their booth benches are cracked so they fixed up with tape but other than that the place was clean and service was quick and attentive. Go get your Indian lunch buffet on!
