    GARLIC NAAN

    This is spot is amazing!!!!! Highly recommended by people in the office. Very fast and attentive service. Food was AMAZING! This is one of the best Indian spots in town!

    Sorry we finished half the pav bhaji before taking the picture
    Harsh S.

    Honest is a great place but you need to order specific things. We tried the Pav Bhaji and it was extremely good. We also tried the Mysore Masala Dosa which was not as impressive. Service no complaints very nice people and courteous and food comes promptly. Its very close to the beautiful swaminarayan people and I heard people who opened it also belong to the temple. Out and out great place but please order what they are really good at rather than randomly trying anything

    I had the Honest Special Pulav. It was so delicious. The staff is super friendly and kind. Definitely recommend this place.

    Food was made fresh, tasty. Very clean ambiance. I am giving a 4 star because the service was very slow even though there were not many people. Its a great place for pure vegetarian Indian food , especially the street style.

    the food was amazing! i came here with my family and we ordered a bunch of different meals to share and they were all so good. the food came out pretty fast and our server was very nice! definitely will come back if i am in the area again!

    MANGO LASSI
    Leena S.

    Well, I really wanted to give this place a better review since it just opened. We went here primarily because they had outdoor seating and we were in the mood for Dosas. Although, Dosas are a prominent item on their menu, they were not offering them this week. We were advised of our other options and went with the Sev Puri Chaat. They didn't have that version of Chaat. So we settled on the Bhel Chaat (an available option), Bhaji Phav, and Mango Lassi. The server was not very friendly, didn't apologize for not having most of the menu, and didn't ask us our preferred spiciness level. Our food was so spicy, I was unable to eat anything. Thankfully I had that mango lassi, which was good, to cool my mouth down.

    Everything is VERY fresh. We did the lunch buffet which was delicious. Not the most options but tasted fantastic. The Dosa was great and the staff was all very friendly and helpful. The 4 star was simply bc of price. Three people lunch buffet and one side order of special dosa (very delicious) was almost $80. The food is very good. I would come back.

    Great atmosphere Employees are helpful and accommodating They have a ton of veg options and is perfect spot to try all your comfort foods or bring friends to let them try for the first time! Food was piping hot and had fast turnaround Food was decent size and prices were good The only negative I had was the chole lacked a bit of salt.

    Awesome food. One of the best Frankie. Just like India. Bhumi makes best Frankie at honest East Windsor.

We tried the Fish Moilee, Kochi Special Chicken Curry, Malabar Paratha, Appam, Vellayappam, and Ada Payasam--everything was outstanding. It was especially kind of the chef to personally visit our table and check on how the food was, which made the experience even more special.

Our order list included the following Meen pollichathu - pan fried fish steamed with spice paste inside a banana leaf . was delicious and worth the wait Paneer Tikka - was a standard tandoori appetizer Pepper chicken Masala - this had good flavor and tasted great Goat Ularthiathu - was soft and well cooked Kozhi Varatharachathub- a bit spicy but was a good pairing with the Malabar paratha Gobi 65 - just ok Palappam with Stew - Appam is my favorite but this didn't live upto my expectations Malabar Paratha - was well made layered and soft Paalada Payasam - not my favorite but tasted ok Jaggery Payasam - loved this sweet dish Pazham pori- fried ripe plantain - was way better than expected quite nostalgic . Kochi did justice to Kerala food with their Nadan dishes ( native dishes ) Except the time it took between courses the experience was well worth it.

The chaos, however, was entirely self-inflicted: eight opinionated adults staring at a menu where everything looked good is a recipe for collective disaster. Our server, bless him, stepped in like a professional mediator and steered us toward some solid choices. The food arrived hot and largely delivered on its promise. Largely. The Poori Aloo, while perfectly edible, lacked a certain - as our Punjabi taste buds put it, rather bluntly: the oomph. The Amritsari Kulcha, meanwhile, seems to have had a bit of an identity crisis - it showed up tasting like an Aloo Parantha. For anyone who's had the real deal in Amritsar, this one may prompt a moment of reflection. Everything else, however, was genuinely enjoyable and the menu is a vegetarian's dream come true. Minor culinary debates aside, it's absolutely worth a visit.

Main course: Paneer Angara - no where close to the actual dish. It was more like Paneer Kadhai. Methi Malai Paneer, I would rate a 6.5/10. Naans were good. Dal Tadka (not in picture) was good as well but missed tadka. Overall, we were kinda satisfied. Would definitely be coming back for Tandoori Soya Chaap. Huge parking lot, quick service!

That is the vibe of my delivery of Eggmania's Surti Khemo (their egg curry). I asked for it with chapati instead of the default white bread because I like to think ahead about my carbohydrates. By the time it arrived at my house the curry had already undergone a curious separation event. A slick, shining pool of oil settled on top like it was waiting for the Coast Guard to respond, which was odd since I paid extra to have it made with butter rather than oil. Once stirred, its tomato-spiced and boiled egg flavors did shine through. It was not bad at all. But the portion was modest for the price and that oil slick made it feel smaller than it was. The chapati behaved like a polite bit of bread and nothing more. I can't say this first experience wowed me. The menu itself feels full of promise and variety, so if I find myself in the area again I might very well stop by and try something else from it, but this first exposure left me somewhat underwhelmed and thinking of other plans for dinner.

Haven of Parathas - that's how I'd like to call this place. They have numbered their variety of parathas from 1-100 that you can literally play a game of closing your eyes, pointing your finger randomly over a point on the menu card and order that number of paratha. We usually order couple of parathas and a chaat item whenever we visit a Khasiyat. Hands down, they have the best parathas in town. How could someone consistently make the best parathas when they have a large array of choices to pick from?! They are business smart and environment friendly when it comes to the plates and cups they use. They don't give your dishes in porcelain or plastic but they use hard paper/wood material that's easy for them to dispose. But the downside is the size of those plates or cups. You have a very small circumference to work through your hands on the dishes and it's not an ideal experience when you eat. I'm not sure if this will reach the business for them to consider and improve but this is the reason I rate this place a star lesser.
