The samosas where tiny bit size things, mostly crust? They should be the size of my fist. The naan was flat, no puff. The tandoori tikka kebab was ok, but an underwhelming portion. I don't know about table service, I ordered take out, but it seemed nice inside, looked clean. I feel like if it were cheaper, I wouldn't consider it mediocre, but for their prices, it should be better.

The person working inside seemed far more interested in carrying on a phone conversation than taking care of the customers standing in front of him. Ordering already requires a little extra patience because communication can sometimes be difficult, and having the person taking your order distracted by a phone call makes it considerably worse. I really want to like this place because the food is excellent, but customers shouldn't feel like an interruption when they're trying to place an order. A little attention to the people actually standing at the window would make a huge difference.

On a recent sunny Bham afternoon I happened upon a beautiful, brand new, bright green food truck at…read moreWander Brewing. Being somewhat of an aficionado of the local FT scene, I was surprised that I hadn't heard of this one yet: Mix Masala. Featuring a small-but-mighty menu of classic Indian dishes - like butter chicken, saag panner, pakoras and naan - the smells emanating from this truck were phenomenal. When I saw they had my fave, chicken tikka masala, on the menu I knew I had to order. The owners/staff were so incredibly helpful and friendly (they even said it was okay to take ten billion photos of their truck for my archives), and soon my steaming bowl of tasty goodness arrived while I enjoyed my Wander brew in the beer garden. The tikka masala was perfectly spiced, and the chicken was tender and plentiful. Served with a generous helping of basmati, and including a side of (just one) piece of naan, it satisfied my craving for Indian food and paired surprisingly well with my Uncommon California Common. The tikka sauce was a bit salty for my liking, but not enough to keep me from devouring most of it and taking the rest home to devour later. I'll definitely be looking for this truck again!

Once they were open I ordered pakora as an appetizer and a tikka masala for my main course. The pakora was fantastic. The tikka masala was good. In hindsight I wish I'd ordered saag paneer or chana dal instead, but that will be next time. The owners were friendly and helpful, and when I was told the food would be ready in 6 minutes, they impressed me by having it ready in about 5 minutes and 45 seconds. I will happily buy food from Mix Masala again.

Disappointing Experience at Indian Food Truck…read more I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala from this food truck and was disappointed on multiple fronts. The wait was unusually long--long enough that several customers questioned the delay. When the food finally arrived, it came in a small takeout bowl priced at $17.95. The portion was mostly salad, with very little rice or chicken. The chicken lacked any real flavor, and the sauce was thin and watery--far from the rich, spiced curry typical of a tikka masala. Having tried Indian food in many places, this was by far the worst I've had. Poor flavor, small portions, and an unreasonable price made for a meal I wouldn't return for.
