    This new trendy indian place in east Austin has some charm but definitely could take some time to grow. As soon as you walk in, the decor is striking and has a lot of charm. We ordered their self proclaimed popular curry queso and the lamb chefs special. While both tasted good, they were so oily. Just dripping with oil. It was a little nauseating but after draining out some of the oil, the flavors were very strong and great. They paired really well with their garlic naan as well. One thing to mention though is that while the staff were very friendly, the service wasn't as attentive as I would have liked it to be. Overall, a pleasant experience and I will give them some grace for the spot being a newly opened restaurant. I will be coming back to see how they grow and develop.

    THE BIG: Located right off of 11th street and near Old Thousand. Very vibey interior with tons of colors. Street parking available. THE BLACK AND WHITE: The wife and I came here for Austin Restaurant Week and it was also during happy hour. We wanted to try the samosas and ordered that off the happy hour menu, which is very well priced. For the restaurant menu tasting, we got to choose an appetizer, entree, and a dessert. So we got the curry fried chicken, chicken tikka masala, mango lassi, naan, kachumber salad, and raita. The entree came with the cucumber salad, raita, and rice. Flavors were good but didn't blow me out of the water. Service was also very slow for almost no one being there on a Sunday. That also dampened the experience. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Ultimately, we spent around $52 for everything. Pretty good pricing, however food was alright and the service could've been better.

    Pro-tip: have your order ready to put in on one shot. Such a fantastic experience! Service was a bit slow, but it allowed us to catch up with our guests. We all appreciated the careful attention to craft with the cocktails, focusing on ingredients other than sugar. The Dirty Chai Espresso Martini and Pudina Pani Marg were favorites amongst the cocktail choices, followed by Samosas, Curry Fried Chicken, and Curry Queso for appetizers. The Queso is one of a kind! I'd you're feeling nacho chips, do not miss out. Samosas are fried well, and the chicken was exactly as described. All gravies and plates were fantastic, you can't go wrong with any choice. And don't forget the garlic naan!!

    Food was decent and service was just okay. My husband and I came for restaurant week to check this place out! The portion for restaurant week is massive, so we just got happy hour samosas and one restaurant week order. The samosas were fantastic, my favorite part of the meal. The chicken bites were overly fried and the chicken tikka Marsala lacked sauce and flavor. I also didn't like the flat naan. Service was slo very slow. It took a while to get our check and when we asked for our mango lassi with our meal, they gave it to us after our meal. I had to ask for it in a to go cup. Overall the space is nice, and the food is okay, but the service ruined it for me. I recommend only coming for the great HH deal.

    3.5/5. We tried Electric Gravy for restaurant week and ordered chicken skewers, curry fried chicken, samosas, pork vindaloo, and butter chicken, finishing with a rice crispie treat. The portions were generous and the value was solid, but overall the food was just okay. The naan was soggy and not light and fluffy like I'm used to. Service was the biggest drawback. At 5:30pm with only a few other diners, our server took forever to take our order and gave off the vibe that we were bothering her. For such a slow night, I expected much more attentive service, and it definitely impacted the experience. The highlight of the night ended up being the drinks. The chai espresso martini was excellent and worth coming back for. I might return for cocktails, but probably not for the food or service.

    I took my son here for his birthday last week and we really enjoyed the food and the experience. It isn't clear where to park but there is street parking and a dirt lot that we think is okay to park in, but we parked on the street a block behind the restaurant just to be safe. The food was a unique/fusion take on Indian food. We had the pork vindaloo, saag paneer, samosas, curry queso, and curry chicken panini. Everything tasted fresh. We of course had leftovers! The mango lassi rum drink was like but a little strong of a rum flavor and the mezcal/tamarind cocktail was just the right amount of sweet. The waitress surprised us with a birthday treat of chai flan which none of us had ever had. We enjoyed it and like that it also had coconut flakes and a coconut flavored cookie! Hope to go back again and try out a few more items on the menu.

    Malvani chicken and basmati rice

    This was another Austin Restaurant Week pick for me and a table of friends. $40 for an appetizer, entree (with rice, naan, and cucumber salad), and dessert The staff was polite and accommodating, but service was a bit slow. The food was good, but it came with mixed reviews from our table regarding the spice level, and that's when we noticed we weren't asked how spicy we wanted our entrees. I enjoyed the malvani chicken. It greatly benefitted from the cucumber salad because the entree alone wasn't spicy enough for me. The samosas were delightful, and the brisket curry was the table favorite. The stars of the show were the basmati rice and the bhel cereal treat dessert! One confusing thing that occurred when we were seated at our table was the fact that the staff kept sitting other parties at the immediate tables around us. They did not utilize the other side of the restaurant, didn't skip a table, and didn't ask if we were okay sitting next to other parties and being privy to every word of their conversations. We asked to move a few tables down and were obliged; It's a small space, so there was no obvious reason why this wasn't done in the first place. It was odd.

    Great casual south asian restaurant with reasonable prices. Fried paneer was an awesome appetizer. We had the chicken tikka as our main course with garlic naan and mango lassi. I would come back to enjoy it all again! Highly recommend making a reservation. We were a walk-in and the service was a bit slow-- we waited 30 min before someone came and took our order.

    Chicken and naan
    Devesh S.

    We are not tough to please but something's could be better at this place. Lets start with the positives. The Samosas were flavorful. This is where it ends. We also got the chicken naan and the saag paneer sandwich. The chicken was chewy and probably fried too long, although the flavor was reasonable. The saag paneer had no flavor to speak of; it came across as a big lump of cheese and paneer thrown between two slices of bread. Their outside seating is very congested, I wish they removed 2 tables and space out others so I don't feel like I am a part of the conversation people next to me are having. The inside ambiance is nice and there are other things on the menu we might try if we feel adventurous and go again

    Tadka fried chicken on grilled naan
    Dexter V.

    Ahh, I like fusion restaurants. While Austin misses the mark with authentic Indian and indo Chinese restaurant, these guys do a good job. Went here with office colleagues after a long week. Cocktails - I think they could do better. I'd probably give them a 4/5 here. They could definitely go bolder in their flavor profile. I'd recommend the pudina Marg and the kabutat. All the food was great. Probably a 5/5. Highly recommend the tadka fried chicken on naan. We landed up getting another round. The fried paneer was also great with the butter chicken dip. Highly recommend the curry queso but add the naan along with that. Good to see a place like this open up.

    Checked out this modern Indian restaurant and thought the vibe was spectacular with colorful quilts on the walls and beautiful tiling on the ceiling. Just a really cool and interesting space. Started with the cucumber and tomato salad, which was a great appetizer, lightly spiced and refreshing. Only complaint is the overwhelming amount of onions, I felt like half the dish was just raw onion at the bottom. Tried the grilled cheese with butter chicken. It did not exactly remind me of butter chicken but was still a delicious sandwich. Would definitely come back to try more. It is also in a great location with plenty to explore nearby in walking distance.

    I was really excited to try this spot for dinner but was somewhat disappointed. The appetizers and drinks were AMAZING but the main meals i thought were a bit subpar. I know this spot is more of a modern take on indian but the naan didn't feel authentic at all- almost tasted more like pita. And even the chana didn't really taste like a normal chana masala- a lot more dry than I would've liked. I will be back for Happy hour, but I just wish the food was a little more authentic. The vibes inside were awesome on a Friday night - definitely packed so make a reservation! Service was also quick at the bar. I would recommend trying at least once

    Margarita
    Bhagyashree B.

    Vibe: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Drinks: 4/5 Food: 2.5/5 The restaurant is beautifully decorated with a very ethnic vibe and Bollywood music bringing a fun groove to the place. Loved the Indian flavored twist to cocktails. Food was bit of a letdown as it didn't really capture the authentic Indian flavors as much. The paneer tadka starter could have used a side of tamarind chutney or such and saag paneer was decent but not great. Grilled naan seemed like it was store bought rather than made in-house. The servers and bartenders are very attentive - 5 star service! Pro tip: Make a reservation in advance as indoor seating is limited and the place is packed on weekends.

    Drinks!

I felt the vibe instantly, like as soon as I put one foot in the door. Magical, sophisticated, worldly, wonderful and more were the feelings that spontaneously hit me. The dark and elegant decor, lighting, design, & layout made me feel as though I were in a high-end Tokyo cocktail lounge. The front room as I mentioned is an intimate bar and lounge area with artwork adorning the walls. It's a modern, minimalist, and sleek space. The artwork is ever-changing (every couple of months or so) and the cocktail menu changes right long with it. Note: artwork is available for purchase. What an absolutely glorious way of combining different mediums (liquid art vs physical art). The craft cocktails & mocktails are the epitome of works of art. I've had great cocktails and mocktails elsewhere but honestly I'd be hard pressed to find anything on this level. You're taken into an entirely different realm just watching the genius of mixologists. It's mesmerizing watching them hone their craft. In the back of the lounge is an enclave of eclectic art and other pieces that then leads you to Konbini, the sushi bar. It's an industrial, warehouse vibe with a long counter that screams hip, Tokyo inspired, late-night eatery. Service is impeccable and welcoming at this cosmopolitan venue. It's truly an amazing experience.

Only food I tried was the Tofu Chip which was delicious as well. Also got the Milky drink and it went down just as smoothly. All in all great place, just popped in for my second time in the past three days. The vibe was chill and laid back. Dim lighting and good music.

The bartender claimed I was drunk and cut me off anyway. I was at the bar talking to a girl while waiting to get a drink (the wait was long because the service is very slow, despite the bar not being very busy at all). She was clearly into me, and the bartender kept jumping in trying to talk to her too (instead of doing his job making drinks). He was doing all sorts of things to try and flirt with her and make her laugh: pulling out and showing her buckets of pre mixed cocktails, running and sliding under the bar, etc. She was engaging with both of us , and right in the middle of that, I get cut off out of nowhere. No explanation other than claiming I looked drunk, which I very clearly wasn't. It felt very clear what was going on--he wanted me out of the way. I left and asked the bouncer on my way out if I seemed drunk. This was literally two minutes later. He said no, not at all, and asked me why I would even ask that. I then told him exactly what happened and asked him to let the owner or whoever was in charge know about this extremely unprofessional conduct so they can discipline the bartender. His response was that the bartender has discretion to cut anyone off, and let me know the bartender is supposedly married so he couldn't have been flirting with any of the customers. Well, sounds like his logic is flawed--not only COULD he flirt with his customers, he WAS, and was therefore cheating. I hope his wife finds out. This is perfectly representative of Austin customer service lately and not normal in other places. I was in Tampa for an entire month earlier this year and this would've been unthinkable there. I'm not coming back.

After finally being greeted, we were told our section wasn't ready, the other party hadn't left yet.

Of course the tab was all wrong because it had all of the drinks we ordered that we never received. Again, chaotic.

I will say, the best part was the DJ, HellaYella. And the jerk lamb chops. Also, If and I mean if, We ever go back, We will not reserve a section like that and we will get our drinks at the front bar and sit out on the nice patio. We'll see.
