Love everything on the menu here. We've tried their special pav bhaji in NJ and they have the same taste here. Last time I went, we ordered bahubali sandwich and dabangg dosa. It was toooo much cheese and extremely filling, but was delicious. We've also tried their thali, the variety is pretty good but the quantity is less than the competitor restaurants around the same area. Overall I love going here an trying out new things and am never disappointed. read more

Honest - Dabang dosa - Indian Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

Unfortunately it had spices miss the spot. Every dish and sweet. Even then pizza was sweet. Pav bhaji was a disappointment. The dominant taste was of ginger in there, not at all palatable. Dosa was good. I truly had high hopes of finding a casual eatery we could frequent, but alas honest is not it... read more

I've been here thrice now, all since the pandemic started. First things first, the place is clean and the cutlery is packed so you don't have to worry during these times. The first time I had Paani puri, Chinese bhel and Falooda. The paani puri is as good as it gets in the area, so in case you're craving, you would not be disappointed. The Chinese bhel was more like Hakka noodles and although I was surprised at my order, it was hot and tasty. The Falooda was okay. The second visit I had Bahubali grilled sandwich and Vada pav. The Bahubali grilled sandwich was very tasty. My recommendation is to share or split it given that it is quite heavy and tastes better when hot. Their Vada is quite authentic, but the pav was not soft. Most recent visit I had the Samosa grilled sandwich as a to go and it was very yummy. If you love Indian food, this is a must try. They have an extensive variety of Indian chaat and snacks. I am yet to try out their dosas and thaalis, but that is for when dine in would resume. read more

A good place in Bellevue for Desi Bites. This is in a big compound, hence parking is not tough. There is an Indian grocery store next to it and Fredmeyer nearby. If you are feeling hungry while groceries, can go for quick bites here. On Friday evenings this place is overfull. I love their paav bhaji and falooda. For Falooda i can safely say no other place in greater Seattle have it close to what these guys have. read more

Pathetic food .. I was regretting whole day after having food at this restaurant. We ordered Dabeli and thali. I must say Dabeli was really good.But $20 thali was soooo disappointing and every vegetable in thali was distasteful. The salad pickle served along with thali was not fresh at all. I think the staff do not know how to cook Indian food at all. I had a long day at work and came here to enjoy a good meal but couldn't eat their food as it was distasteful and not fresh. Would not repeat the same mistake of coming to Honest again. Thank you for serving distasteful and unfresh food. !! read more

The Paneer tikka sandwich always hits. Great food, my coworkers and I always come here for lunch. Also huge quantity.

If you are looking for food close to taste from India, you must visit this restaurant. Various varieties with great taste and flavors . The staff is friendly and professional. The set up is very good to accommodate large groups. Highly highly recommend this place read more

If I could give rating for just the vada pav ... it would be 5 stars. If nothing else go here to taste the best vada pav I have had outside of India. Rest of the items I tried are nothing much to write about hence the overall 3 stars. Also this is my personal opinion, but stay away from the Chinese Indian items on the menu. I wouldn't want anyone to get the wrong impression about what it should actually be. They are nothing like the Indo chinese food I love. Hopefully the business owners take note and focus on what they are doing well instead of just expanding the menu which brings the actual good experience down. read more

Dabeli, dahi bhalla papdi chat, masala pav, Mumbai wada pav are all best I have ever had! Really recommend for these items.

Our first visit here today. Easy parking in a big lot next to polite Fred Meyer. A nice eatery with many tables, very clean & well-organized. The order desk and the huge menu board on the wall are by the entrance. After consulting with the polite & knowledgeable server, hubby ordered mild spicy Paneer Tikka Sandwich, I had the Thali Platter (2 sambhars, 4 dishes, salad, rice, roti, mango lassi, dessert), and we shared the $1.40 huge bowl of tasty raita. Picked up our own water & tableware and sat down. A beautiful young lady brought trays of food to our table. DELICIOUS EVERYTHING! With the generous portion to have enough leftover for a snack at home. We will be back! read more

My wife and I ate lunch at this restaurant in Bellevue. She ordered Idlis, steamed rice and lentil dumpling like South Indian dish, which she thought was very good. I ordered Rava Masala Dosa -- a crepe with a potato filling, which I found to be flavorful and savory. We also got a Mango Falooda, a flavorful and refreshingly tasty cold drink, with mucilaginous Basil seed, vermicelli, nuts, and a dollop of Mango ice cream. We enjoyed the food and will definitely go back. read more

Hard to find ANYTHING negative about this place - coz the food - they said - was authentic Mumbai-style street food and they did not disappoint! Owners (I think) Anand & Falguni do a splendid job of keeping it real and consistently high in quality; I would know because I went in first on a Friday, and then was quite wowed by the food & the service to go back in the next day with my wife and, then with eight friends & family a couple days later - each visit was consistently awesome! We were comparing a handful of Seattle chaat places with those in Surrey BC and this came out on par, if not better. It definitely is in the top two Seattle Chaat places! And that's saying something especially since they're only open a year! So yeah - absolutely no need to drive all the way across the border to Payal Plaza in Surrey BC to get good Chaat. Stick with Seattle, coz honestly, Honest has it down! Hands down, my favorite was the Falooda drink (rose flavored w/ dry fruit) - 5/5 - this is my poison and will keep me coming back over and over again! Other favorites were: - the basic Pav bhaji: 4.5/5 - get this with an extra pav which, by the way, is made from scratch and deserves a 5-star in itself especially since it's lathered with Amul butter & artfully toasted! - the Bahubali sandwich, 5/5, which is a marvel as long as you're dining in. I'm now inspired to try the other sandwiches - the Vada pav, 5/5 - just like Mumbai - the Dabeli - 4.5/5 - pure awesomeness in the potato filling & the pav although I would've liked the English-muffin type bread like they serve on the streets of Pune! - the Dahi Puri - 5/5; I tried the Pani Puri and thought it was a 4/5, but Falguni insisted I try this - the Dahi Puri as well - and it far exceeded my expectations. Fair to say that it's not Delhi-style and while I don't really know what a Mumbai style dahi puri should taste like, I know that we loved this enough that we ordered almost 3 more portions when we came back with friends! A supremely tasty & refreshing start to the meal, imho. - Dosas... 4.5/5, we tried both the traditional basic butter masala dosa and the Dabang dosa - and I would get the traditional dosa again any day! The dabang dosa was not my thing probably because we were all cheesed out from the bahubali sandwich but if you're into a more cheese - go for this! The dosa was a 5/5, but the sambar & chutney were a 4/5 as they tasted more north Indian than South Indian. (I am from Chennai - so hard to please me with any sambar not prepared like they do in Chennai or in Iyer/Iyengar homes). - Hakka Noodles, 4/5. I will be back for more Indo-Chinese but this sample did not disappoint. If the wok was hotter and the noodles cooked just 30 seconds longer they would've been smokier than what i tasted - closer to the street version of the noodles. Honestly, time well spent; money well spent - and like I said earlier, the Rose Falooda will keep me coming back - A LOT! Overall, a customer-obsessed place that cooks and serves up Mumbai-style street food with passion and a sense of pride! PS: special shout out to Shereen at the front of the house for putting up with all my tantrums! You rock! read more

Stopped by for dinner last week and the place was quite crowded for a Covid Wednesday. Tables were spaced well apart, sanitizer available and everyone wearing masks and being respectful which was good to see. The Wada Pav was mixed emotions. The wada was hot and fresh and tasted nice. The pav however was so cold and dry and stale that it just ruined it. Needed to douse it with chutney to compensate. Given that this is probably one of my all time favorite foods and something I grew up eating literally 3-4 times a week, I was unimpressed. Next time I'll just stick to the plain wada maybe. The Pav Bhaaji was not bad but nothing to write home about. The pav was smothered in butter and warm and toasty which reminded me of home. The bhaaji was mehhhh. It lacked flavor and was high on artificial food coloring. Also, no onions or cilantro or chilies or lime, just pav and bhaaji. Those are quintessential elements of the dish and it is very much incomplete without them. My friend ordered the Bahubali Sandwich. It was huge and apparently tasted quite good but was somewhat of an overkill according to him. It just had too much going on. His biggest critique was that while the first piece tasted nice when it was hot and fresh, the rest of the sandwich got cold and soggy really quick and was not enjoyable. This is worth ordering if you're sharing it among 4 people and can eat it right off the grill. Overall the food was kind of okayish. Probably won't be rushing back but might grab a quick snack at some point if I'm in the area. read more

What a reasonably priced Indian street food spot in Seattle.. this place serves the best vada pav in town.. pretty close to the one we get in Bombay with the theeki meethi chutney (this was okay felt the meethi chutney was a little watery) and authentic chilli (fried green chilli) and lasoon dry chutney.. the pav bhaji was nice too it did have authentic street food flavors but could have been a little more spicy but i do understand they cater to majority of folks who may not like it super spicy like I do.. generous amount of butter in the pav and the bhaji.. the veggie cheese grill sandwich was good but lacked little more chaat masala to give it the authentic mumbai sandwich taste.. also adding ketchup to the sandwich along with the green chutney and more chaat masala will replicate the Mumbai veg grilled cheese sandwich better.. Finally could not resist ordering rhe Rose falooda.. i am a huge fan of royal falooda in Mumbai and this one was pretty close.. missed the tootie fruity but good fresh dry fruits and authentic royal falooda flavor.. This restaurant is doing pretty well during the pandemic.. place the order at the counter the order will be delivered to your table.. half the tables are blocked to practice social distancing.. once done we have to keep the trays at a separate station.. they are trying to keep it as contactless as possible.. one request- since you are open for dine in it may be a good idea to have a hand sanitizer at every table open for dine in.. it is convenient for your customers to use the hand sanitizer when they need it at their table.. this restaurant is right next to Apna Bazaar hence 10/10 for location since it appeals to the indian crowd visiting for grocery shopping (which is what happened to me and I am not complaining).. All in all this place satisfies my Mumbai vada pav, pav bhaji and falooda cravings in the best possible manner without drilling a hole in my pocket.. read more

I went in with few friends today to eat my most favorite Bahubali sandwich and realized that it was missing the sweet sauce I love that makes it special. The owner very graciously offered me another sandwich and when I tried to pay for it he reused the payment and made it on the house. Amazingly good food and great customer service. Highly recommend.

Best place for quick bite and variety of options...good for pickup .easy to find...kids like the place

Food is not at all worth for the money, staff is not worth your time. Restaurant has a weak management.Complex system of fetching food where you need to remember the number of table you have when u order at reception. Under inhumane rush we got a table number 36 (me and my husband visiting for the first time) I forgot this number and by mistake said 34 at the reception while i made the payment . I recollected something was a miss and when i told the lady to make the correction like 2 seconds after ordering she was mad at me and made bad gesture faces and sounds said " cant u remember?" i politely told her it was a mistake to which she said nothing and made no eye contact. Other lady standing close also jumped in on this conversation blaming me for the inconvenience they ( honest receptio ) are facing!! Are you guys for real! people who come for first time may not know ur system. I wouldnt really care if they had served that sandwich to some other table . I felt bad for the way they behaved thats not cool I feel now that honestly "Honest " takes a lot of pride is serving below average food for above avg price with rude staff. Order : Honest special Pav bhaji Kaju anjeer milkshake Samosa grilled sandwich Total bill:38$ read more

Hands down the best Vada pav and Pav Bhaji I have tasted in the Seattle area. Seating area looks huge and open. The veggie grilled sandwich was yum too. The only thing that was average tasting was the schezwan fried rice and manchurian. I have always placed a TOGO order so I cannot comment in store service. However take outs have been very convenient. Everyone is wearing a mask and safety precautions seem more than satisfactory. This is a must try place. I am really glad Chaat House has a good competitor after so long ! read more

If you are looking for a place that serves very close to Indian chaats and snacks, Honest is the right place to visit! I have tried several restaurants and found the taste at this place very authentic and exactly how you gets chaats served in India. I love their Dabeli, vada paav, chole bathure, bhelpuri and also the dosa. They taste is so good and reminds me of food street in India. This place is usually crowded but you will definitely get seated. This is my to go place whenever I carve for Indian chaats. read more

My husband and I experienced what we perceived as a micro aggression after being asked to leave the premises by a staff person because another customer wanted to sit at our table. We received our food at approximately 1:25 pm on 3/2/24 and the staff person asked us to leave at approximately 2:20pm. We were seated with our food for less than an hour. It is highly unusual to ask a customer to leave within 60-90 minutes. We found it hard to believe that all of the other families in the restaurant were asked to do the same. We politely left and later, my husband returned to the counter to speak to the manager about it. We were told the manager was not available. read more

Honest Restaurant did not update their New Year's hours (closed all day) on Google, or on the various food delivery Apps, or on Yelp. So UberEats accepted my Honest restaurant order today (Jan 1). Then the order status screen kept saying "will be ready" for an hour and would not cancel by itself. UberEats staff refused to cancel my order and refund when I contacted them via their chat and mentioned that the restaurant was closed. One of them even said that the order is already out for delivery (even though it was a pickup order at a closed restaurant)! Someone at Honest who answered my call said that even though the restaurant is closed, they cannot cancel the UberEats order due to no access to the computers. He said just be patient and the order will cancel automatically. It never did until my fifth attempt with UberEats chat finally succeeded. The food here is very good from my past experiences. But they need to figure out how to prevent orders from coming through when the restaurant is closed. To be fair to Honest, UberEats customer service is even worse at 1 out of 5 stars. read more

We were a regular at this place when we lived in Redmond. Bahubali is a fan favorite while I also liked their dabeli and dahi Puri a lot.

Recently came across this place and we're liking it so far. A lot of the dishes are reminiscent of popular Bombay street food. We liked the Vada Pav (also seemed to be one of the most popular items there), Bahubali sandwich is nice but huge. We liked the pav bhaji too, definitely order extra pav as you'll need it. We also tried the chole bathura which was good too. Falooda was nice but a bit too sweet. We wanted to try something new so tried the Bhakri Pizza - which was ok. Lots of seating and food service is quick. read more

We've been here twice already since this place opened. Literally the best Indian food in Seattle. It's so delicious and has the best pav bhaji, chat, dosa! The menu is spectacular and such a delight from the rather sub-par Indian offering in the Seattle area. If you want to eat authentic street food, this is the place! Also they're so clean and courteous. And gosh so quick! Couldn't recommend it more read more

Really solid food. Fluffy chana bhatura, super crispy paper dosa, perfectly balanced bhaji and buttery pav, and the samosa sandwich that was delicious and enough for 2 meals itself. Papdi chaat was ok, didn't stand up to the rest of the food, and they didn't have any indo Chinese that Saturday which was a bummer. read more

Honest - Ordered wayyyy too much food lol. Absolutely no regrets. - Indian Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

Newly opened in Overlake Square Mall it offers vegetarian South Indian and Desi Chinese dishes. Huge seating area provides good social distancing and very clean surfaces. The kitchen can be seen at the back and orders are taken at the front. Ordered Gobi Manchurian, Chili garlic noodles and Chili paneer with gravy. The taste was good and also spicy. The portion sizes could be larger. More paneer and less capsicum would be great. I think next visit I'll try the other items on the menu. read more

I have been eating Honest from back in India so I had my expectations a bit high. When I had during their initial days the quality, quantity and taste was same as in India. Now after 1.5-2 years of their opening their quality, quantity and taste everything has gone down. Every weekend I order pickup or dine in their still hoping their get back to same taste as it was before. The front desk people are very rude and that makes it worst. Even if you ask for Samosa without heating it up they will ask you to wait for 25minutes. Front desk people are terrible to handle customers during peak hours. Hoping they improve customer service! read more

If I could give zero, I would. We ordered a few varieties- idli, sambar bad. Chole bhatura was horrible- both the chole and bhatura. Samosa chaat- the Samosa was bad. We will never be back. read more

The food tasted very bad. The pav baji's bread was chewy and it tasted like cardboard. Its gravy also was cold and tasted funny. I also ordered a butter naan. But, the employees forgot our order!

Pathetic food and CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! Went to Honest in Bellevue and ordered Mysore masala dosa and rava masala dosa. First of all, I was asked to changed the table just because someone else had 7 members with her and they wanted to join the tables. Then after waiting for 30 mins, finally received my order. Both the dosa were cold. I don't understand when it is a dine-in order, how can you provide the COLD food? How can someone eat cold dosa? Rava dosa was half broken as if someone else ate it. On approaching the person who was taking the orders, response was - "rava dosa comes like this always. I can't be removed as full dosa from stove". I have been eating rava dosa throughout my life and it never came half gone like someone ate it. If your cook don't know how to make rava dosa, don't add in your menu. Sambhar and masala (dosa filling) didn't have salt at all and there were no veggies in sambhar. I am sure it you would have faced issues like cold food in any restaurant that is not being operated by an Indian, they would have tried their 100% to make it right for you but the guy who was taking orders here just turned a deaf ear. He didn't even get a thought of trying to make it right. In short, it was total waste of $$. ***If you want to save your taste buds from TORTURE, avoid this place completely!!!*** read more
