The tacos were by far my favorite -- I honestly would've been happy if that's all I ordered. The masala fries and paneer pizza, though, were nothing special. The pizza had way too much cheese and didn't have much flavor unless I used the malai sauce. The staff was very nice, and I'd come back for their tacos, but probably not for anything else.

I popped by for dinner last week after seeing the great reviews. Unfortunately, both meals I…read moresampled did not live up to expectations. My tikka wrap was almost entirely mozzarella with a smattering of chicken bits, tomato, and onion. It overwhelmed me, an avowed cheese lover, so I maxed out after two bites. I handed it off to my sweet husband who will eat anything while I tucked into his butter chicken. The naan and curry were tasty, but the chicken was so dry that I gave up after two more bites. Such a bummer because I'm always on the hunt for reasonably priced, fast casual meal spots to add into the rotation.

According to a close friend, Safran Austin located on Far West Boulevard, is especially known for being the first in Austin to feature a dedicated Nepalese menu I was not very hungry so I ordered the Chicken 65 (spicy deep-fried chicken with tomatoes, curry leaves, and ginger) ...a South Indian specialty. The chicken nuggets were doused in a flavorful curry seasoned and they were super moist and fresh tasting. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. My server, Dipka, was kind and helpful. She offered me water to go as it was pretty hot outside...nice touxh. There are a plethora of vegetarian, vegan, and halal offerings. Looking forward to returning and exploring more menu items...

It is the type of day that makes you want to eat comfort food. Bombay to Kathmandu was the ideal place for some lentil soup and naan. My soup was steaming hot and my naan quite tasty. Walking into Bombay to Kathmandu feels like being transported around the world. The beaded curtains, tin doors and other Indian Nepali artifacts made the place appear authentic. I placed my order with the cashier, who was warm and welcoming. The menu is remarkably diverse, offering classic Indian favorites alongside traditional Nepali dishes, which makes it stand out. The restaurant is known for its momos, curry dishes and aromatic sauces. Importantly, there are plenty of options for both meat lovers and vegetarians. Their creative fusion items, including curry inspired pizzas are their specialties. My soup was quite generous and filling. Prices are reasonable, and the food consistently delivers big on taste. The staff was friendly and willing to help with spice levels and menu recommendations.

Quite honestly, it was better than the onion dosa...more filling. The Marsala dosa was not as crisp on the outside with folded ends.

My server was very attentive bringing me a menu to the table and offering me water to drink. She was very friendly and personable. Only one person came into the restaurant while I dined there.
