    Chicken Vindaloo
    Andrew L.

    Came here for dinner on a Tuesday night, the lot had a couple of food trucks and none of them were particularly busy. I had heard great things about their roti so I decided to try here. For my entree I had the chicken vindaloo, the sauce wasn't particularly flavorful, much more tomatoey than the usual chili spice you'd expect from vindaloo. The chicken was pretty dry and the potatoes fell apart too easily when trying to pick them up. At the very least the portion size, particularly the amount of chicken they gave, was super generous. As for the jalapeño cheese roti, it reminded me of the quesadillas I'd get from my night owl dining hall in college. The cheese didn't really have any flavor and the roti tasted like a whole wheat wrap you'd buy from a grocery store. Overall, it's not the worst spot you could go if you're super hungry and craving Indian food, but it didn't live up to the hype for me at all.

    There's a handful of interesting Indian spots around Austin but Bombay Dhaba is quite possibly the most scrappy of them all. It's a small food truck located off the South 1st foodtruck park that also has a few other trucks (believe there's also Thai, Mediterranean, and some other options) in the same park. The first thing that comes to mind after you get your order is PORTION SIZE. I'm a fatty and usually eat enough for two but couldn't finish a single order and ended up saving it for another meal. The second thing that comes to mind is SPICE, both in flavor (great) and spiciness (good kick). I ordered the Lamb Vindaloo and loved every bite. The basmati rice is super well seasoned and the Raita it comes with (light cucumber yogurt) balances out the curry and the spice incredibly well. A friend also tried the Samosa and was a big fan. Overall, would highly recommend to someone looking for some 'hidden', delicious Indian food.

    Paneer tikka masala and Veg Korma
    Dhwanil S.

    This has been one of our go to restaurant for some te now for good north indian food. The food over here is fresh and consistent in taste. We normally order paneer tikka masala, veg Korma and saag paneer. All 3 are very good in taste. Paneer tikka being a little tangy due to tomato gravy, veg Korma with a hint of sweetness, not too sweet and saag paneer is very good compared to all other places. The best things is they don't use heavy cream as it's evidently visible in all other restaurants. Also, the tawa roti is very healthy and fresh. I saw healthy since this is wheat flour and not all purpose. Also the Veg biryani is perfect level of spice and flavor. A special mention that they give very generous quantity.

I met a Yelp friend for dinner that I had not seen for quite some time. It was great catching up! As you walked in, you could smell a hint of the aroma of spices coming from the kitchen. Is it possible that everything you eat or drink is exceptional? Can service be at the highest possible level? Yes and Yes! We ordered the onion kulcha and garlic naan as appetizers. They were fresh, hot, soft and super flavorful. You could taste the onions in the kulcha and the garlic was pronounced in the garlic naan. We both ordered the lamb/goat marsala (medium for me and mild for my friend). The entrée was an explosion of flavors in your mouth...so good! The entrée was rich and enjoyable to eat without being heavy. It came with basmati rice where the kernels did not stick to each other. The rice was airy and fluffy. My friend ordered an Indian beer. When in India, Indian beer is a staple. I ordered a lemon drop martini. This was the best martini I have had in a very long time. Shamu, the bartender, came over to our table to explain what other martinis he could make that were not on the menu. The Lemon Drop martini was ice cold (loved that), smooth and perfectly blended. Shamu said that the glass was first chilled before the martini was poured. Drinking narvana... Riya, our server, was so sweet and kind. She was meticulous in serving our table - water constantly refilled, lemons delivered and food strategically placed on the table. Riya suggested our entrée as the most popular dish. We absolutely understand why. I am not sure why we have never eaten at Tandoori. I definitely will be returning when I am back in the South part of the city.

Highly recommend that and the rose milk (especially if you need some relief from the spiciness when you start out.) I had a little bit of my friend's butter chicken sauce, and that was excellent too. More heavily tomato-based than I'm used to, but a lot of depth of flavor. I'd happily order that in the future.
