Took my friend here for dinner a few weeks ago. She really likes this place and I have had it bookmarked since it opened. We ordered: Fish and chips: 3/5 my friend like this but for me it was too oily and just ok in flavor. Paneer: 3/5 sauce was good but a few of the paneer cubes were super hard and dry. Chicken wrap: 4/5 this was tasty! Garlic naan: good read more

My friend and I came here for dinner on a Sunday evening. It wasn't too busy, so parking and ordering was a breeze! The restaurant is fast casual so you order at the counter and the food is brought to you at your table. Food: Chili Paneer Rolls - These were okay. They were indeed spicy, but there was barely any paneer. It was just onions. Masala Fries -These were good. I could use a little more seasoning. Butter Paneer with Naan - The butter paneer was delicious. As their namesake, I think they did the butter sauce well. The naan was also delicious. Service: Service was quick. Ordering at the counter was easy. Our food arrived at our table promptly. TL;DR - great fast casual Indian place read more

If you're a die hard butter chicken fan come here and stick to your guns and get the main premium butter chicken plate with naan since that was the best item we had shared. Other items we had were the chili paneer rolls which were very average, and too sweet, the chicken kababs which looked pretty but tasted quite bland (the chutney and the onions saved the kebabs). The butter chicken nachos were decent but could have been layered more properly. Definitely a one time try for any butter chicken lover. read more

Tried their Butter Chicken and Garlic naan. Their version of Butter Chicken has a more tomato flavor, also sweet, with less curry flavor; a bit muted on the spices. Thinner gravy. It had dark chicken meat in big chunks which were tender. The garlic naans have visible garlic on them but not as garlicky as it looked. They were fluffy and chewy but were burnt instead of well roasted. The mango lassi was good and has option to add boba without change in price of $7. I thought the lassi was pretty small portion especially for the size. The mango and yogurt were pretty muted in the lassi. I ordered to go and food was ready earlier than expected. read more

Butter Chicken Social was sooooo cool! After a cycling class in downtown Sunnyvale, a close friend and I decided to try this place, which is only 5 minutes away. This place appeared on my radar by the power of Tik Tok. The venue has ample guest parking and is part of a larger plaza behind it. The interior is well furnished with cushioned seating and chairs. The dining room is spacious and sleek in design. We entered around 8 pm, and there were only 2 other diners already in the restaurant. I decided to order 3 items: Masala Fries, Boba Mango Lassi, and Butter Chicken with Naan. It was around $30 for dinner. After 10 minutes, my food was delivered to my table. They have cutlery and napkins at each table and jugs of water near the cashier. The Masala Fries were what I expected- crunch, crispy, and well seasoned but not too salty. The Boba Mango Lassi was good, but it wasn't that chilled to my liking. The texture was smooth and creamy, and the pearls in the drink were chewy and fresh for sure. Great way to balance out the saltiness! The butter chicken had a beautiful color with deep hues of brown and other sauces mixed in. The chicken pieces were good portion sized and cooked well. The Naan was 4 pieces and paired well to soak in the butter chicken sauce. Great place that left me feeling absolutely stuffed with a food coma!! Would come here a second time to try their chicken sandwich. read more

IMO, the hardest cuisine to nail is "Fusion" esp AZN Fusion. Most can't get it right with watered down flavors and weird pairings. Remember the ramen burger?! And, then trying to appease, "That's not how my mama makes it" crowd. Fuhgeddaboudit. But, there's always exceptions. Like Butter Chicken Social, an Indo-American eatery. Located in Sunnyvale....CHECK! Filled with natives....CHECK! Both very promising signs since Sunnyvale is the place in the bay to go for Indian food. Butter Chicken Social is open for takeout, delivery, and dine-in (indoor seating only). Drive thru to come (converted McD). M E N U Indo-American Cuisine: Apps (e.g. paneer puffs, paneer spring rolls, butter chicken bomba "croquettes"), Wraps + Sandwiches, and Nachos + Pasta in tikka/butter sauce. Nothing crazy but fusion items that make sense. Halal meats used. For dessert, they have soft serve (chai and chocolate) and gulab jamun (milk balls soaked in rose syrup) cheesecake. For drinks, they have mango lassi (comes w/ boba), chai, and bottled drinks. F O O D * Tandoori Drumsticks w/ malai mint sauce (2 pc - $10): http://tinyurl.com/mtj63mdj Well-spiced and flavorful with a nice smoky char. However, as I was chewing, I noticed the texture was off. Upon further inspection, I found the chicken was raw in the center. More on that later. * Egg & Chicken Tikka Kati Roll w/ mint cilantro chutney ($14): http://tinyurl.com/54bpbszy While on the smaller side, the kati roll was deliciously satisfying. The wrap was soft and chewy with a layer of egg cooked onto it, filled with flavorful morsels of tender chicken (dark meat) and creamy herbaceous chutney for dipping. Would def get again with a side of ghost chili (+$1) for some heat. S E R V I C E Fast-casual. Order at the counter, grab a number placard, and seat yourself. There's self-serve water on top of the bottled drinks. They were pretty busy and food took about 10 minutes to arrive. After we were finished, I went to the counter to let the cashier know that the chicken [drumstick] was still raw in the center. She offered to have it recooked but I told her, I was only letting them know for feedback purposes. Several moments later, the owner (?) came out to apologize and asked if we wanted anything to take home. I politely declined and we went back and forth. They gave us mango lassi for the road. My rec is to drop the boba. It was mushy and an unnecessary add-in since you can find boba everywhere in the area. Alternatively, I think basil seeds would work better. Unlike boba, they retain their chewy texture. A M B I A N C E Casual and contemporary with cerulean blue banquettes and 12-14 tables. P A R K I N G They have their own parking lot. Overall, solid Indo-American fare and this is coming from someone who likes their food boldly spiced. Despite the chicken mishap, keeping it a 4 star because the owner and staff were apologetic and tried to make things right (I didn't get sick). And, they were less than 2 weeks young at the time. Def coming back for them Indo-Chinese Wings! read more

What a unique find in the area. Fusion Indian food in a fast-casual setting? I'M DEFINITELY THERE! The menu has a lot to offer, and our food came out very quick. Great for big groups! I ordered the Butter Chicken with Rice. This is a bit expensive for the portion, but packed with flavor! It is spicy, creamy, and the chicken was SO TENDER. We also got the Masala Fries, which has the best texture! Very satisfying and came with desi ketchup. Honestly... pass on the BCS Chicken Sandwich. The flavors were pretty tasty, but it way too much fried batter for me. It distracted too much from the chicken itself. The sauce was more like a buffalo sauce than a butter chicken sauce. read more

Butter chicken social had been on my list to try since late last year and thankfully I was finally able to try! The fiancé and I decided to make a quick dinner pit stop. This is a cute chic Indian fusion spot and great if you're into butter chicken. The service is casual where you order at the front and then find your seat . We ended up ordering on grub hub and eating there. We ordered: * kerala fried chicken - this was good and had nice flavor, however I wish the chicken was more crispy and a little more spiced up than what we got. It was nice the chicken was juicy though * butter chicken bomba - I would skip these bc for 7 bucks you only get 2 and personally I did not feel like I could really taste the butter chicken flavor in the bites. I did like how they were very crispy though and served hot * chicken Kathi roll - I enjoyed this and loved how it was full chicken and all the different flavors. This was really yummy * BCS burger - this was a crispy fried chicken burger and I really liked this. It was a standard chicken burger with yummy sauces and lots of flavor. Me and the fiancé demolished this! * masala fries - these were delicious and was a great accompaniment to the Kathi roll and the burger! Overall the food was yummy and it was a unique spot to try out! read more

Came across this new restaurant online and decided to try it as we were looking for a Friday night dinner but nothing fancy and just good food. The reviews on YELP looked very interesting and the pictures looked great. We arrived around 6PM and the restaurant was not too busy. Extremely clean, polished and looking sparkling new dining area had a few tables occupied. You order at the counter and as the restaurant name suggests, everything (expect some vegetarian options) is based on chicken. We opted for a fried chicken sandwich, butter chicken meal and butter chicken nachos. Tried a sample of the chai tea, it was amazing but I didn't want anything too sweet with dinner. So passed on getting a chai... The food was served very quickly, the chicken sandwich was moist and crunchy with great flavor, it was served with a side of fries. The nachos were just amazing, the chips were nice and crunchy, the chicken was extremely soft and the flavor was excellent. The butter chicken meal was great and the same quality of chicken with a great sauce. Will definitely be back again and hope their business does great over time. read more

3.5 stars and rounding up to 4 -- not a bad spot for fast casual Indian fusion in Sunnyvale but prices are definitely a bit steep even for the bay area in my opinion. We tried the BCS chicken sandwich (regular), BCS wings (5 count with schwan sauce), and boba mango lassi. Our total for these 3 items came out to be over $40 including tax and tip. Moving onto the food itself. The mango lassi was delightful and I loved that it wasn't overly sweet; however, it is $8 for a medium sized cup and I wish it was a bigger size for the price. The chicken sandwich and wings were both super crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, and the sauce on the sandwich definitely added a unique and flavorful twist to your average chicken sandwich. The wings came out fresh and piping hot which I appreciated (since it did take a while for them to be ready), and the schwan sauce gave a bit of a kick to the dish. I will also add that the sandwich usually comes with fries, but we opted out since we had fries earlier in the day. read more

The new butter chicken social in Sunnyvale is cute and trendy with a beautiful interior and bright feel. I appreciated the nice fast casual slow, water glasses available, and silverware at the table. I ordered the following: - butter chicken nachos - butter chicken and sauce was delicious! However chips were sub par - butter chicken sandwich - I didn't taste the butter chicken flavor too much. It was a good chicken sandwich with tender chicken and a thick breading, but it wasn't saucy like I was expecting. It was a little heavy on the condiments which overtook the flavor - garlic naan - delicious! 10/10 naan, came in 4 triangle pieces. I wish I had another order! Fluffy, buttery, and great flavor Overall a very cute interior and fun menu of fusion items. Not all the food items hit perfectly on the mark but I'm so glad I tried it! read more

We came here literally 10 mins before closing and they graciously let us sit in and finish our meal. The place was almost empty at that time so we appreciate that consideration. We ordered the butter chicken roll with egg and chicken drumsticks and a tikka pasta for my toddler. The chicken rolls were amazing, probably one of the best I have had in the area. The pasta too was really flavorful and good and my son enjoyed it quite a bit(and he is a picky eater), the tandoori legs were unfortunately not that great. It looked amazing and I was drooling just by looking at them but there wasn't much flavor to it. It just tasted very blend despite looking so mouth watering. I am happy to come back anytime again to try more dishes here and ofc for the rolls! read more

Came for lunch on a Wednesday after dropping my car off for service across the street and it was pretty popping. You order at the counter first and then you get a number to put on your table, so they'll bring the food right out to me. I got the BCS Chicken Sandwich which was like a fried chicken burger. The chicken part was good but there was too much breading. I had lots of the fried breading just fall off (with no chicken inside) that I didn't bother eating. It might have been over cooked a bit as well, it was too crunchy on the sides. I also got the boba mango lassi. I love boba and I love mango lassi, but I didn't need boba inside my mango lassi. Would prefer if there was an option to get the mango lassi without the boba in the future. I really REALLY really liked the garlic naan. I'm a simple creature, I guess. I also got the fries but I finished my whole meal and it didn't come out yet. I had to ask the counter for it and they were surprised it didn't come out yet either. It's okay, I was pretty full and I got the fries to-go. It came with some desi ketchup that was pretty good. But, the fries are nothing special - I'd recommending skipping it. The bathroom was clean and nice as well. Lastly, whoever was on aux put a Justin Bieber playlist on. Every single song was a Justin Bieber song. LOVE. THANK YOU. Best part of my dining experience!! How'd they know another Belieber (me) was there? read more

I have very high standards for restaurants so this review is very critical. Having said that. This restaurant is really really up there. My god. I don't think I've had food this good in the Bay Area I ordered the tangdi kebab, the kerala fried chicken, chicken tikka masala and tandoori roti, garlic naan The kerala fried chicken was 20/10. I cannot emphasize how good this dish is. The chef is a god amongst men. He peppered it with fried coconut flakes! This is excellent. The tangdi kebab was falling off of the bone. It was so well done. 10/10 The chicken tikka masala. Felt like it was homemade. You know that scene in ratatouille when the food critic eats it and feels like it's his mom's cooking? That's what it was like. The service from the owner was amazing. He prepared a fresh lime soda for us with full details. Ambiance is extremely well done. Minimalistic design that feels upper class and CLEAN. I think this is a masterclass in small business restaurant design. Others should take notes. I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Only one critique: the garlic naan was a bit undercooked. But forgivable since everything else was too good. Food was also very low oil and healthy read more

Peppermint - Kerala fried chicken - Indian Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

It seems people usually get takeout here, because it's not usually too busy, but you will see people coming in and out. It's quite spacious, and the inside feels quite modern. This is like an upscale-ish Indian fast food spot, so unsurprisingly the price is a little expensive for the amount they give. Since it is fast food, expect fast food service. The food itself was pretty good. The naan was the perfect texture of crispy and soft, and the curry was very delicious. The chicken sandwich and fries were also pretty good. It's a solid spot taste wise. The fries were also crispy and kind of unique-ish- def worth a try. Since it's quite close to where we live, we could see ourselves coming here again. read more

We had wanted to try this restaurant for a while. We got here on Friday evening, easy to find parking. There were a few people at the restaurant but not overly crowded. Ambiance is nice and welcoming. Interiors are clean and well maintained. We ordered a chicken and a paneer kathi roll. Service was fast. It took about 10 mins to get food. Portion size is small for a full plate/entree and it's on the expensive side considering the food quantity and menu item price. My friend said that the chicken kathi roll tasted good but he was still hungry. It was not a good value for money. Paneer Kathi roll also tasted delicious for the first few bites and then it started tasting greasy and heavy very soon. I went from "oh this is delicious" to I am feeling nauseous by the time I started eating the second half of the roll. Green chutney condiment was delicious and refreshing. read more

Tried the recommended dishes by the person at the counter. The butter chicken was to mild in heat and in spice for me. When I went, they had just opened and haven't tried any of their rolls so might change my star rating after I try them. read more

There aren't many spots with indo-American fusion food but this spot has good variety and the food is tasty! My friend and I got the butter chicken bomba, chicken tikka & jack cheese kulcha, masala fries, and the bcs hot chicken sandwich, along with a side of their curry mayo. The bomba was interesting in concept but lacked some flavor and was a bit bland. The kulcha was super tasty and hot, loved that it was super stuffed and the chicken in it was tasty! The hot chicken sando was our favorite item we tried, so flavorful and had a nice little kick to it, the masala fries were also very tasty and paired really well with the curry mayo. Definitely a spot worth trying and we're def going back to try the other items! read more

The ambience seemed clean and well maintained. The presentation of food feels nice and the quality of ingredients is also well taken care of. If the food hit the spot on taste and flavor that would have been a full score. The paneer Kathi roll lacked seasoning and fresh ingredient such as cilantro or cucumber would make a difference. It was loaded with too much dry spices. Also, the serving could have been larger. The chilli chicken bao buns are well made and also seemed fresh and hot when served. The only drawback was that the buns were super greasy. The cheese cake was more like scrambled eggs, over cooked and more of refrigerated gulab jamuns than cheesecake. The crumble and compote is a nice touch to the overall dessert. read more

This is a fun fusion restaurant! Most of the dishes have, you guessed it, butter chicken inspirations. I tried the butter chicken momos and thought they were good. The sauce is a butter chicken sauce. The insides of the momo were stuffed quite generously and the inside filling was quite spicy! I waited about 5-8 minutes for my friends' food before I started eating and at that time the momos were a bit cold - unsure if they can cool down that fast or if they were kind of cold to begin with. But I still liked the dish. I also tried the saag paneer puff. It was basically a spinach puff and I thought it was tasty especially dipped in the butter chicken sauce. I don't know if it really evoked saag paneer flavors but I still liked it. The mint cilantro sauce was yum and went well with fries. They have glass bottles of water that you can grab self serve. I drink a ton of water so this was much appreciated! read more

Butter chicken - Their entire philosophy is on this single dish and this is culinary masterpiece!

The ambience is really great, but the great things stop there with this new place. We came across BCS on social media and went there to try after a long day of work. We got the jackfruit sandwich and the BCS sandwich. Both were neither good nor bad. And after they turned cold, I definitely lost interest in finishing the food. It's very average food, but being sold in a fancy new restaurant. The restrooms were the cleanest I have seen. But they need to actually focus on the food if they want to stay in business. I wouldn't be returning here until I hear things have improved. read more

Peppermint - BCS Chicken Sandwich - Indian Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

popped in to give this (relatively) new establishment a try. I love indian food and wanted to see what this was all about. they are going for a fast casual and mass market appeal type of indian food which definitely has its niche. i tried: masala fries - wedge fries with their own masala blend (masala means spice). these were good. i would have preferred if they used cross-cut fries or normal fries instead, however, as my only complaint is my complaint for all wedge fries, which is that they are often not crunchy enough, and sometimes they can be too thick and and starchy dosa batter cauliflower - this is like a gobi manchurian or a gobi fry if you are familiar with those. basically, battered cauliflower and then deep-fried. i enjoyed these, although not my favorite version of these. i like it when the gobi (cauliflower) inside is gooey tender to contrast with the crisp of the outside batter. outside - crispy, inside - gooey. these were not quite at that level of tenderness, but this is probably a preference, as their version was still good and not undercooked. the spices on the outside batter were perfect (probably a bit spicy for non-spicy eaters, but i thought they were perfect level of mild heat) butter chicken rice - this was supposed to be the highlight of my meal, but was actually my greatest disappointment. given the name of the establishment, i would expect their butter chicken to be transcendental. i did not transcend. first the good - the chicken was very tender and could be cut with a spoon or fork. however, the sauce, which should be rich and creamy, felt thin to me, with not much depth of flavor. it is very tomato forward, but then nothing after that forwardness. i expect my butter chicken to hit me with waves of flavor - first the tomato and acidity, then hopefully several notes of spices, with a long creamy finish. this was not that. read more

Friendly service and menu prices aren't too bad. Quick and simple, roomy and clean interior. High chairs available for the small kiddos. The ketchup for the fries were extra sweet, not in a bad way but a bit more special imo. Spice level ordered was mild and it was just right. The chicken could be a bit more juicier but wasn't dry or bland, or rubbery. Parking should be easy but might have to wait a little depending on hour of day since there's other restaurants and a grocery next door. read more

It was a rainy night and inspite of it the place was buzzing. It seems to have gained popularity pretty quickly. I placed an order for the premium butter chicken with naan, obviously, duh. And decided to try the jackfruit burger as well. For the third item I asked the lady at the counter for her suggestion. Consider this a pro tip, always ask for a suggestion for their best item, in most cases you might get a generic answer of "everything is great here" and in other cases you will hit a gold mine. In my case I was recommended the kerala fried chicken, it turned out to be the best dish of the evening. Kerala fried chicken: 5/5: highly recommend getting this, the chicken was melt in the mouth delicious with a delicate balance of spices. It's not your regular fried chicken with a heavy batter weighing it down, there is batter but just enough to provide a nice texture. Nostalgia hit me hard. Growing up my dad used to return home late in the evenings after a long day at work and still managed to drive us down to this cart which served the most amazing pepper chicken that we used to chow down in the car while watching the rain through the windows. This chicken was as delicious as that pepper chicken I had decades back. Butter chicken: 4/5: now their namesake dish better be the best out there, after all they have a limited menu and most items are centered around this. The dish is good, hit all the right notes including being a little sweet, definitely had heavy cream. For most it might seem obvious that butter chicken ought to have heavy cream but the heavy cream we get here is not typically what gets used back in India. Though the version here is good, it's definitely not the best I have eaten even within bayarea. Naan: 5/5: we got a naan with our butter chicken plate. Note that atleast two naans are needed to clean up the dish, so definitely order an extra naan. The naan itself was bang on delicious, buttery, no burnt spots, not too thick, decent sized, no complaints. Jackfruit burger:3/5: I ordered this dish for the novelty of it and in my quest to try something new. There were no sides, read fries, to overwhelm the dish. It came with a single sauce on the side. I was expecting the patty to be atleast 50% potato but to my surprise atleast I couldn't taste any potato. But the overall burger was disappointing for a myriad of reasons: a full bite was too mushy, there was no, for the lack of a better word, structural integrity. The bun was obviously soft, the center patty was soft, it was crispy on the edges but not enough to carry it through. The burger relies heavily on its star the jackfruit and doesn't complicate it with other toppings but the little cabbage that they used provided a much needed crunch. The burger was spicy and heavy as well, the sauce on the side was also heavy ( seemed to be some mayo with hint of mustard?). It would have helped to have a lighter sauce. Prices might seem a bit high but I think they are reasonable given the fact that they have a decent ambiance, interesting serve ware (thank you for not using plastic). read more

Food was ready for pickup right at the predicted time of order 530. The seating and building itself look good after the renovation. Building was setup like a fast food joint in a previous life. Would have been fine to eat in. Nachos - wifey likes it with chicken - slightly sweet and spicy, enjoyable Momo's - only ok texture was a bit off too thick - sauce and flavor were both good Fries - they're fine and probably great right out of the fryer - less crispy as a takeout item Bao - wifey not a fan of the fried chicken - I thought it was tasty though the bao ratio is off - too much bao - I dipped this in mint/cilantro and that made it extra spicy Bombas - like Indian hush puppies - two to an order - but heavy, probably best eaten right away - needs a sauce so into the mint/cilantro you go Paratha roll - paneer tikka - best in show - squeaky paneer is awesome - light and tasty Paratha roll - chicken egg - couldn't taste the egg but I'm sure it lends some richness to the experience - bit of spice makes it good Butter chicken - not as flavorful as you'd like given the name sake - naan is big and chewy - good sized serving and makes for a solid meal read more

My family stumbled across this place when trying to find a place to grab a casual dinner and we were excited once we saw all the pictures. Indian chicken sandwich and Kerala fried chicken? Sold. I ended up ordering the sandwich and my Dad got the Kerala fried chicken. The chicken was okay, but it felt like it was missing more flavor or sauce. I also ended up eating some of my nephew's nachos and I thought those were slightly salty, but not bad. The Kerala Fried Chicken was probably the best item we ordered and we did enjoy how they fried the curry leaves in the dish. The desserts looked delicious so we may come back to check those out. read more

saw this place while driving down and came back with the family a few days later. They have a new concept of americanized indian food. The ambience is great and probably is a rebuilt taco bell or some fast food restaurant as there is a drive thro. there are a few vegetarian options but largely make for the chicken eaters. I tried the jackfruit burger and the family tried the chicken burger and the bao. the jackfruit burger came with an interesting sauce. the patty is crisp and will make you feel full. Also it is not a store bought patty. service is really fast, you order at the counter and it gets served at teh table. the plate are interesting. for folks who grew up in the india in the 70s and in the south , it may bring them some memories. Definitely a good experiment that is being executed well. Will go back to eat again for sure. Do go an try and encourage a fellow indian who had the guts to experiment on the food, ambience and operating model. read more

Great ambiance and a Beautifully renovated place. Everything is new . Interesting menu options but limited! You order first and sit down. We ordered a Jackfruit Burger. Pretty unique dish and we have only had this at 1 other place in the BayArea. Very tasty and crunchy! All the sauces that came with the burger were homemade and they were amazing! Specifically tamarind bbq sauce. Other item we ordered was the Paneer Kathi Roll. This was just wonderful! It was spicy, tangy, a mild bit sweet. The outer wrap was nicely done too. Overall a delicious meal. read more

Came across this place as I drove by my usual haircut place on El Camino. Their menu looked pretty interesting and we went in to give it a shot. The vegetarian wife had the Kolkata Jackfruit burger and I tried the Egg & Chicken Tikka Kathi roll. We also ordered the Masala fries. The jackfruit burger was quite tasty, with the right balance of flavor and texture. Pineapple chutney was yummy. The kathi roll tasted great as well. The masala fries were okay, and didn't really have much masala on them. Also, the fries took about 25 minutes to arrive which was kind of a bummer. The ambiance is really nice! Overall, i recommend this place for some tasty Indian fusion food. Will be back to try more of their items. read more

Came here on a Sunday night with a few friends to check it out. Parking was easy - there is a huge parking lot. It was busy but not too crowded - enough to know it must be a good place! It was definitely an old fast food restaurant converted - very casual. But it felt charming and authentic. You order up at the counter and they bring out dishes to you one by one, on a tray. It's pretty fast, but the chai can take some time. We ordered a bunch of things to share and I've put my personal rating below: - chicken momo (9/10) (was not expecting this to be as good as it was, best momos I've had!) - tandoori drumsticks (9/10) (flavorful and tender) - chicken sandwich (9/10) (amazing!!! Tender, flavorful, rich) - kerala friend chicken (6/10) (felt super fried and not too flavorful, had a red color which made it look artificial) - sweet potato chat (5/10) (not too flavorful) Definitely get the first 3, bursting with flavor and super tender meat. We also tried every single sauce. My favorite with the green one. My only complaint would be there didn't seem to be veggies on the entire menu. It was mostly chicken, which I love, but felt hard to have a meal without that balance.. but who knows, maybe that's very intentional!

Decided to try something new while I was in the area, didn't disappoint! It looks like Butter Chicken Social used to be a fast food spot, with the counter set up and drive through outside. I really like how they modernized it - the dining area is really tasteful, their mascots/signage look newly designed, and the enamel dishware is super cute. I loved the vibes! You order up in the front and they give you a number while you find a spot to sit. Overall the food comes out decently fast. We ordered butter chicken w/ garlic naan, butter chicken momos, and tamarind sauce roasted sweet potatoes. I can see why they call themselves butter chicken social; the sauce is super good!! My only feedback is that if you get naan, there's not quite enough for the entire dish. We ordered another serving. The chicken pieces and serving sizes are a bit sparse, but I still enjoyed it a lot. The sweet potatoes were quite light and refreshing because of the tangy sauce. We went a little more traditional with our choices this time around, but I'd come back to try the fried chicken sandwich, pasta with pink sauce (butter chicken gravy and cream), and their more modern renditions of classic Indian dishes. I think it's always great to have more creative takes on food that we're already familiar with, so I thought this was a really pleasant experience. read more
