    Fish Pakora
    Smrithi S.

    We were in Broadway to eat at another place that closed earlier than we expected and we ended up eating in Mirch Masala since it was close. We got Fish Pakora, Lamb Boti Kebab, Paneer garlic naan, Chana Masala and Roti. We liked Paneer garlic naan the best, Fish Pakora was good. Lamb Boti Kebab and Chana Masala were disappointing.

    Matter Paneer

    Service as attentive and friendly. They even accepted a Restaurant.com coupon from 2017! And we were told we could have as much rice as needed. We like rice so this was nice to hear! The food was a solid 4 stars. The Matter Paneer was very tasty and the Aloo Gobhi had a nice amount of cauliflower. We ordered medium spicy and found it pretty mild, so keep this in mind if you like heat. The Kheer was very refreshing but the cardoman/saffron? was difficult to taste.

    My daughter and I stumbled upon this restaurant after we found out the sushi spot was closed but we were pleasantly surprised! The restaurant was very clean and seemed new. The wait staff was very attentive and the food came out quickly. We ordered chicken tikka masala, palak paneer, garlic naan and rice. The chicken was tender and the sauce was smooth and slightly creamy. Although it lacked a little depth in spices, it was still very tasty. I loved my palak paneer, it had medium heat and had a good amount of paneer. The naan completed the meal perfectly. We ran out of rice and they gave us more without extra charge! If your hitting some thrift stores in Capitol Hill, come stop in for a bite!

    Amazing curry! Loved the Spinach Naan! Will definitely be back! Parking is a little tough, but you can park in the middle lane and run in to grab your curry.

    Gulab Jamun

    The butter chicken and rice were okay, not a lot of chicken, and the sauce was good and creamy. The garlic naan was very good. The gulab jamun (my favorite) was great, but the serving was only 2 pieces for $7. Probably won't order that again from there.

    I really enjoyed the food at Mirch Masala. I stopped in for dinner and ordered the following: - Samosas - Butter chicken - Plain naan - Paneer naan * SERVICE * The guys that run the place are kind and went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of. The food was also quick which made our visit that much better because we were HANGRY! * FOOD * You really can't go wrong with naan. Like many other Indian spots I've tried, the naan was delicious. The paneer naan was good, but not my favorite. The butter chicken was so tasty but I felt like it was missing something. A hint or punch or kick of something... it was buttery, for sure, but I feel like it needed something to balance out that buttery-ness. Maybe some citrus or spice to cut through it a bit. Nonetheless, it was good! The samosas were sooo buttery and I loved it. Even though the restaurant wasn't crowded when we walked in, they were swamped with a bunch of take out orders. If you do have the chance to dine in, know that there is a decent amount of indoor seating and you'll be well taken care of. Cheers!

    Stopped here for the lunch buffet on a Sunday. The restaurant space is nice. It's inviting and clean. The food was okay. The butter chicken was the highlight, and it was excellent. The tandoori chicken was dry. The other dishes were good, if pedestrian, versions of classic dishes. Service was friendly and helpful. A nice place for a buffet if your are nearby, but far from the best of Indian food in the Seattle area.

    Vegetable Rice and Butter Chicken from the buffet. Delicious!

I'm not sure what happened on my last visit as the curries were on the colder side. When you arrive parking can be a bit difficult, there is a small parking lot out front, if that's full you'll need to find street park. The restaurant itself feels warm, casual, and bustling. Queen you walk in you have the option to sit on the backyard patio or in the dining room. We opted to sit in the dining room as it just felt more intimate and the vibe we were wanting for dinner. For our appetizer, we started with the Samosas (Two crispy pastries filled with your choice of freshly mixed vegetables or delicately spiced lean ground beef) which were excellent. Next we ordered the garlic naan, chicken tikka masala, and butter chicken. The naan and samosas showed up piping hot but the chicken tikka masala & butter chicken were cold. I probably should have said something as I was disappointed but was too hungry to care at that moment. If I'm in the Seattle area I may stop by Taste of India again.

The interior has charm and is well-decorated to match the old building. The restaurant has always been a nice stop before events at the stadiums, or, in my recent case, a good lunch spot during jury duty (the thali was a nice chance to try various items on the menu). My partner and I were recently looking for local restaurants which can do catering for a large event - and preferably with a Bengali focused menu. Fortunately, we were in Pioneer Square around that time and stopped in at Nirmal's. Oliver, the owner, was making his rounds at tables checking in on guests; we decided to ask him about catering and he assured us it would be possible. He had Chef Sunit come out and meet us as well, who further assured us they would be able to handle it no problem. We exchanged numbers and began discussing possible menu options over text; Chef Sunit suggested we come visit in person to try a sample of the proposed menu. Over the course of a couple hours we got to try many dishes which are not on their typical menu; and which are generally hard to find in the Seattle area. It was clear from this point forward that Sunit & Oliver were the right team for our event. The event itself went off flawlessly with Nirmal's as the caterer. Many of our guests asked about where the food was from and we happily mentioned the restaurant and introduced our guests to the Nirmal's team. Sunit was on-site the whole time ensuring everything was operating smoothly. So, overall, a big thank you to the Nirmal's team, and we look forward to visiting the restaurant again soon to say thank-you in person.

We were really hungry and decided to join them as I've had this spot saved too as the reviews were pretty positive. They were definitely very popular but we were put on the waitlist but I think it would be helpful if they took peoples' numbers as apparently they would just shout it outside. We weren't aware as we went somewhere else to wait as it was very cold. When we arrived, a different employee started cleaning a table for us and we waited but then the employee who did put us down was frustrated with us as he called us and no one of us answered cause we were elsewhere. We weren't sure if we had a spot after that but luckily the employee who was cleaning was done and offered that spot. They also did drop a glass cup after cleaning nearby which was concerning but they did clean it up right away. Once we were seated, it took almost a half an hour to get some to take our order. Luckily we did get our water refilled decently but there were a few times where our empty glasses were seen and ignored. I definitely think there should be staff training as it was non-existent. I understand being busy but you're across the convention center so it should be expected. The music was also so low I didn't know it was even on, they have a loud fan going on and even their TVs have no volume. It's a pretty awkward ambiance, especially with how they try to look like they are a upscale restaurant. It did take some time to get food and it seems like the kitchen was frustrated too as I heard the bell signaling food being ready several times. The food was actually good, especially for the price. The portions are generous. We never had paratha but our friend recommended it so we got the aloo paratha while my boyfriend got their butter masala and I got their tikka masala extra hot. It wasn't really spicy at all, definitely nothing like what I've had at other Indian restaurants. The curries were flavorful with good pieces of chicken. We might return if we need something nearby but there are definitely better options that I would walk for.

    The momos from this Indian-Nepali restaurant (kitchen?) had been something I've heard things about…read more So when I came up here, I was quite excited to give them a shot. Not exactly sure what to get, we ordered the momo combo, the malai momos, and the tandoori momos - all chicken. These did more than live up to the hype. They're simply the best momos I've ever had. The sample size on that isn't huge, as I've only had it from about three or four different places, but these blow those other places out of the water so much it's crazy. The quality here is simply spectacular - every kind of momo present is so delightful to consume. The level of marination on each of these is highly impressive. The momo combo comes with sandheko, steamed, chili, and fried types. Each of these are awesome. The fried momo has a great crunch without being overly bready. It reminds me a little of a turnover, but savory. The sandheko momo is dripping with a nutty, oily flavor. The chili momo isn't super spicy, but contains just enough for your tongue to feel that it's there - and it has a beautiful deep red color. The malai momos are also awesome. These are nutty and creamy to the max - drenched in sauce yet the dough still stays firm on the outside. The combination of flavors with the chicken feels like it shouldn't work, but it just does in a way that's purely addicting. Out of the three orders though, my favorite has to be the tandoori momos. These are plump, juicy, and the reddish brown exterior feels like they actually were cooked in a tandoor. They're the only ones crispy on the outside, yet the chicken on the inside stays the same level of soft and juicy as the other ones. I should mention how good the filling - despite being ground chicken - is. It tastes better than a lot of the pork filling I've had in other dumplings. We also had the garlic basil naan, with tomato achar. While the achar wasn't my favorite as it felt too liquidy, the naan was quite soft and enjoyable to even eat plain. Also the momo sauce wasn't my favorite either as it felt too tomato-forward. Each order was around $15-17, which for 10 pieces, I'd say is a decent enough price. Overall, I find it hard to believe that these momos will be topped anytime soon. 9.15/10

They have a good variety at good prices, which definitely impressed me and I hope they don't raise it as they get more popular. The service was polite and friendly and there's plenty of seating. The only downside is that the location isn't the greatest, but the restaurant itself is nice and comfortable inside. I'll definitely be coming back to try more of their momo.
