The dosa is called sHezwan but it's not. It's done by someone who has never seen what sHezwan dosa is. The chutney is frozen and it need to be semi solid. The dosa is is red so its called sHezwan. Indian restaurants are just exploiting the fact that there areamy indians and low variety restaurants. If this is the quality of Dosa you want to serve please remove it from the menu. Or atleast try to google what is sHezwan before putting it on the menu. read more

We are proud to announce that we have found our new Chaat place in Seattle. It took us 2.5 months, but the Chaat was worth the wait. We got Dahi Puri, Bhel Puri, a Paapdi Chat, and Masala Chai. They have a huge hall where it would be really fun to sit and noisily eat Chaat, but Covid scenes have made indoor dining all but impossible. We ordered at the front desk and had to wait for about 15 minutes to get our food. Not because Chaat takes that long, but because they have been overwhelmed with online orders. Definitely coming back for more Chaat. read more

The food doesn't taste good and even the quality seems like it's lacking. I ordered the vegetable cheese sandwich and the rose falooda. The sandwich was huge but so bad in taste, it was so spicy my mouth was burning for ages. I couldn't even eat a quarter of the sandwich, it didn't even taste spicy in a good way. The falooda looked pretty sad, usually falooda has some jelly bits but this didn't have any. Additionally the vermicelli in this was way undercooked. I feel like I wasted my money. Maybe the other items taste better but definitely don't bother with ordering these items. read more

Poor Dining service in the restaurant serving part orders at intervals! For a familyx 3 orders, one order was served after 10 minutes followed by other 2 orders at interval of 15+ minutes each. On top food was not cooked properly, though served so late. Restaurant dining not recommended read more

Our go-to place for chats. Love going here even if it is a 40 min drive. Their vada pav is so good that you'll stop missing Mumbai's vada pav. Also love the grilled cheese sandwich, pav bhaji, bhel puri and Gobi Manchurian. The sandwich will remind you of cool joint sandwiches in Bangalore. There's just so many options to choose from. They also have chikoo milkshake on their menu which is unique. read more

Visited Honest during the pandemic and ordered takeout. While I cannot comment on the safety measures of this restaurant; the food was certainly a delight. The Wada Pav was excellent and hands down the best I have had in the Seattle area. Very close to being authentic Mumbai wada Pav with generous doses of theekhi meethi chutneys & dry garlic chutney. The veggie grill sandwich was good too, I only wish the cheese wasn't in a separate layer, but still tasted good. The biggest disappointment and reason for reducing a star is the "Chinese Bhel". Chinese Bhel served here was NOT Chinese bhel in any way. Chinese bhel is typically made from fried noodles, but what they served here was basically soft Hakka noodles with soy chunks. Very disappointing. Overall though this place has a huge menu to choose from! Ranging from Chaat to Indo Chinese to South Indian food. Highly recommend. read more

Really good indian food. Authentic taste of fast food. Fast service and minimal wait.

This is already my go to place for pav bhaji. I ordered vadapav and dahi poori for a change, and it was so so good. Vadapav is so close to what you get in Mumbai. 100/100 would recommend. For dahi poori. loved how they didn't put dahi or pani in pooris for takeout, and gave it separately (which wasn't too much work to pour over) so pooris weren't soggy (which has been my complaint when I do takeout for dahi poori from other restaurants). read more

Worst food ever, ordered a delivery. Ordered Chilly Paneer gravy - bland & tasteless, to top it all, looked horrible. Thali - Uncooked Naan, veggie portion was too less, the rasgulla in it was a joke. Schezwan noodle - Full of oil, the veggies in it were raw. read more

We love the food at this place and ordered the Channa batura, which is large fry bread with chickpeas. Not too spicy, and very tasty. The second dish was Mumby street food, Vada Pav, the ubiquitous veg burger. Our absolute favorite. Giving the restaurant 2 stars instead of 4.5, because we observed two of the staff in the main kitchen who were coordinating the orders, keeping their masks lowered all the time. There was also one of the cooks (Hispanic guy) making the cheese sandwiches with no mask at all. How can the restaurant post a sign at the entrance saying masks are required inside, but the staff don't adhere to the rules? Real shame, as we like the restaurant a lot. read more

Have been getting take out from Honest for 2-3 years now. We really like their Dabeli, and vada pav. Their pav bhaji and tava pulav are hit or miss, but when good, are really good. We had a sit down meal here for the first time yesterday. Most of the chaat items were not good and had too much green chutney. The bhel was super soggy with green chutney overpowering everything else. Same with the sev puri. The pani puri water was just spicy without mush taste. We added loads of tamarind chutney to balance it out and make it palatable. It was surprising that a restaurant run by a predominantly Indian crew did so poorly on chaat items. The dosas were good - kids especially liked the chocolate Dosa. The chilly cheese sandwich had zero chillies and loads of green bell pepper. That's not what a chilly cheese sandwich is. This was the most disappointing part of the meal, as I have had their bahubali sandwich before and although quirky, it tasted good. The place is decently managed although they have many contradictory messages like they first told me at the reception that you can order more food at the your table itself later, but then asked me to go back in line when we needed to order more items. Overall, I am not sure we will dine in again or beer too much from the stuff we have liked here before. This is definitely not a chaat place for us going forward. Will stick to vada pav and Dabeli. read more

Great taste! We ordered wada pav and honest special pav bhaji. Both tasted really good! The bhaji was topped with cashews and was rich & delicious with just the right amount of spices. I am excited to try more items on their menu! Will update my review here. I really liked how they packed chutneys along with cut onions as we had ordered take out. read more

This is the most loved restaurant in entire usa for me. I can go here anytime and order anything I'm always happy with taste and fast service. The menu is filled with amazing dishes that will leave your mouth watering for example Amul butter vada pav, bahubali sandwich and dabeli to name a few. The ambience is also good nice place for friends and family for authentic Indian taste. read more

While I recommend other items on their menu (albeit I find everything too salty) their Thali is a huge disappointment. Such low quality! No vegetable sabzi! Just some watery dal, too sweet and hard dahi balla, hard paneer, too sweet gulab jamun and lassi! read more

We really like the north indian food at Honest and have favorites here like pav bhaji, special pulav, vada pav, pani puri. We have door dashed multiple times , ate in person once and have also placed a catering order where they were able to make my order vegan. Unpretentious place with good food. The reason I am giving 3 stars is to get attention about the amount of one time plastic this place generates. The spoons, forks are plastic throwaway cutleries. The water cups are styrofoam. Likely this is a cost cutting measure? The management should consider stopping this and if needed factor in the cost to use regular cutleries . Thanks! read more

The restaurant has great authentic Indian taste! Clean and fast service. Must visit if you're in the area.

If there was 0 rating I would have given that. I ordered chole bathure, sandwich,sev puri, samosa chat & manchurian . Me & my husband thought to try the restaurant because somebody recommended it. They are the worst. Spending 60$ & what i got was .....bhature were totally raw, I don't understand how could the chef served it blindly. It was all leaky & raw dough inside. Sandwich was horrible too. Sev puri & manchurian was ok. My advice Don't waste your money here, spend that money somewhere else where you will feel happy after eating it. read more

One of the few places in the area which offers really tasty Jain food with alot of variety. Specially the Cheese masala pav with bhaji is really tasty. They also offer jain sambhar for south indian food. The service is always fast as well. read more

New spot for vegetarians!! Food over here will definitely remind you of authentic flavors of India. I always missed a place who caters Pav Bhaji like the one in Ahmedabad and this definitely did! We tried their paani poori, honest special pav bhaji, bhakhri pizza and dry manchurian!! Every dish was full of Indian flavors!! Quality of the food is excellent ! Highly recommend this place :) read more

We went first time here problem is they have such along menu on screens which is hard to read. When we enter there they said u can acquire table only after u order I had my Mother in law who was not able to stand but they did not allow to have table okay then we manage to have order to do but when I was ordering I asked for Dias any Dias and in peak day peak hour they were not having it such a bad experience then I told lady on register better u switch that screen off what u don't haveI Atleas then someone can go for what U have. And even there quantity was very less BAD EXPERIENCE NEVER AGAIN read more

It's a good place to have decent Indian street food. Their Pav bhaji is amazing. Chai can be better.

As usual we placed a take out order, the person taking the order is really courteous. Our order was perfect neatly packed. Cheesy pav bhaji, vada pav , samosa chaat were very good. My main issue was in the Dahi Bhalla Papdi Chaat. The Dahi and Papdi Chaat were good, but the Bhalla was very hard to eat and in some places it was very doughy. Overally everything else was amazing!! If they can take this review and make the Bhalla (vada) better, it would be better. Their vada pav and cheesy pav bhaji is excellent!! read more

The food is definitely not to expectations. The restaurant was spacious and price was reasonable, but watch out the quality and taste, it may disappoint you. The servings were in stainless steel plate (we don't mind) but was certainly not cleaned properly especially during this Covid period. read more

Went in only once, ordered chole-poori. Was kind of surprised to see poori that looked more like a batura , when asked about it , the lady is said it is a poori just looks like batura... go figure. Anyways, food was pretty mediocre, nothing extraordinary, prices were pretty high around $14 for chole-poori. The quantity was huge (the pooris are big like the size of a typical batura , or perhaps they served me batura instead of the poori). Either ways, $14 for chole-poori/batura is too high, even the single gulab jamun that was added does not justify such high price for something basic. read more

I cannot believe we have not tried this or heard from friends about it, as they have been open for 6 months. We ordered the vada pav (2 pcs), dabeli (2 pcs) and chilly cheese grilled sandwich. After each bite I went wow, Wow, WOW my wife and I are thorough Mumbai bred and they pretty much nailed all aspects of how these snacks should be prepared. Order was prepared fast, the pav you can tell is baked in house, the prices need to go up because they are underselling right now. As a home food business I make vadas at home and they got the right look and a slightly milder taste, so for me this place is leagues beyond the current indian snack joints on the eastside. Love the chips and a sprinkle of chilly powder on them as an additional nice touch. Will drive all the way from seattle to try some other fare like the popular pav bhaji! read more

Honestly try some cold grilled sandwich... Hearing great reviews, visited on 3/2/23 and ordered "4 layered toasted Bahubali sandwich" with extra spice. Was asked to wait, since order was 'being prepared'. After 20 mins, got the order, but decided to try sandwich in car, since I had an appointment - to my surprise, the grilled sandwich had cold stuffings! Not to mention, extra mild spicy. Was so amused, called up the restaurant, they patiently took my 'complaint' and assured a quick callback, which never came. Thank you for being so honest! Honestly, this would be my first and last order! read more

Ordered Vada pav, Bahubali sandwich and Pav Bhaji. The Vada pav hype is for real. Loved it, took me back to the vada pav from Mumbai. However I don't understand the hype with the Pav Bhaji. Was pretty bland for me. Nowhere close to the mumbai style one. Bahubali sandwich was huge and filling. I am looking forward to trying the other chaat they have. Vada pav is a clear winner compared to the competition in the area. I didn't receive the receipt and I had to make sure they charged the correct amount. I will be on the watch out next time. read more

We always come to Honest for Vada Pav and were never disappointed.. today we went and ordered chole-bhature and Cheese masala dosa . We were not happy with order.. chole curry tasted good but bhature served were flat and cold so was hard to eat... cheese masala dosa was again disappointment, they used cheesed slice instead of gratesd cheese which made dosa too much sticky in mouth... Not good experience today.. read more

I've always been a fan of dining in at Honest, their Pav Bhaji is one of the best I've had. But I'm here to write a review about their catering service. Honest goes above and beyond in terms of the quality of the food, the quality of the packaging (it's EXACTLY what we want and no shortcuts) and their masala chai is to die for. The owners give great importance to customer service and they don't take their business lightly even though they have enough foot traffic. Honest is a go to for my family for every event we've had (wedding, house warming) and will continue to be so read more

I ordered a dahi puri but received a lassi puri. The dabeli we got was uncooked and just some sweet filling stuffed in a bun. Couldn't expect worse. I can't understand why they need to make everything over sweet. read more

Being fairly new to the Seattle area, we are always on the hunt for new restaurants to try. One friend recommended Honest as a must try for their vada pav. We happened to be in the area one Sunday afternoon and made our way in here. It is an order and sit down kind of place. We ordered Wada pav, masala pav dry, and veg cheese grill. The service was pretty quick despite the restaurant being crowded. Wada pav definitely lived up to its hype! It came with green chutney, sweet date chutney and a fried green chilly. The masala pav dry was nothing but pieces of pav fried in generous butter with spices. I would recommend to try if you don't mind the butter. Nothing much to say about the veg cheese sandwich. It was the usual cucumber, onion, tomato, potato + green chutney with cheese. It came with a side of spicy chips. If I were to rate the Wada pav alone, I would definitely give it 5 stars. I can't wait to go back and try their other offerings, specially their chaat varieties. read more

Really good and excellent good and sandwiches authentic Indian food.Really liked the excellent variety of foods.

One of the member from our party was wheelchair bound when we visited yesterday. It was seriously disappointing to see a large freezer blocking the path to the restroom which made it impossible for the person in the wheelchair to use the restroom. When it was brought to their attention, the owner started being defensive saying that they already know it is illegal but then how come they did not care to fix this till now. I hope they fix it soon so other wheelchair users won't have to go through this again. Hard to write about food with such a bitter experience in the mouth. read more

Its the absolute worst, this was the third time I was disappointed by Honest. I gave Honest the benefit of the doubt because I tried it in New Jersey and loved it. The food is sub par, the service is just horrible ... we had to wait in the line for an eternity because there was no one on the counter to take orders. I would definitely not recommend Honest to anyone. read more

Today is the first time we tried Honest. Food is over priced and quantity is very less. But taste is good and authentic. The reason I am leaving this review is the worst customer experience.
