    Butter chicken and butter naan (2 orders) with mango lassi small
    Chloe L.

    A hole-in-the-wall and a surprising find! The place looks unassuming from the outside, but the food and drinks were genuinely delicious. Drink ordered: Mango Lassi (8/10): Refreshing with a lovely mango flavor and just the right thickness--it wasn't too hard to drink through the straw, which I appreciated. Food ordered: Butter Naan (8/10): So good, but I do wish the portion was larger. My boyfriend and I each got one order and ended up inhaling it. It wasn't clearly listed on the menu, but they had it when we asked--same with the butter chicken. Butter Chicken with Rice (8/10): As a butter chicken fan, I was happy with this one. The flavor was rich and comforting, though I would've liked a bit more chicken. The rice was just okay--nothing special on its own--but it worked well once mixed with the sauce. Personally, I would've preferred more naan instead. There's minimal indoor seating--just a few bar stools by the window--but there is outdoor seating available, shared with nearby restaurants. Be aware that the outdoor area can feel a little sketchy at times due to the surrounding foot traffic, which took away from the atmosphere a bit, though that's not the business's fault. I personally preferred sitting inside, even with the limited space. The one who took our order was helpful and food came out quickly.

    I never knew I needed a chicken tikka burrito until now! We ordered this via Door dash to a hospital in Oakland! The burrito was piping hot still! I got riata and tamarin chutney! 50/10 My burrito was soooo damn good ! I started to order again before I finished the first one! Spectacular burrito! They used tandoori chicken ! Sorry for the half eaten photo! The even put my name on it!

    Chicken Biryani

    I got the Chicken Biryani to go. It came with a side of yogurt. It was delicious and warm and the portion size was huge! It was enough for 2 meals in my opinion. I will definitely be trying the Chicken Tikka Burrito as I see it is highly recommended.

    Chicken Tikka Burrito

    I ordered the Chicken Tikka Burritos with a friend of mine and they were out of this world. We instantly ordered seconds after our food, and heavily debated thirds to bring home with us. Staff was pleasant and quick with service, and the music was at an appropriate level. I wish I lived closer, because this would be my every meal.

    Veggie Samosa- (1pc) Fresh Hot Chai

    Food was really tasty and the staff was nice :) Very easy place to stop by and get a quick bite.

    Got the chicken biryani, veggie biryani, veggie samosa, cilantro garlic naan, gulabjamun, fresh sweet lassi, and the fresh aloo paratha. I loved all the food as it was flavorful, spiced evenly, and packed a punch with every bite, the samosas had a great crunch, though the naan and paratha were a bit on the burnt side. The sauces were good with the samosas and the naan and added a ton of flavor. My favorite was the biryanis as the rice and onions were so flavorful and tasty in themselves. I did not like the lassi as much due to personal preferences, but it was a great aspect to try out overall. Order on Snackpass for a discount! It's right in the gourmet ghetto!

    Firstly, this is a cafeteria for LBNL employees, affiliates, and official visitors only. That said,…read moreif you are working on the hill and do not have time to take the bus down into Berkeley, this is just about your only option for lunch! There are three or four different stations set up that provide different types of food each day. There's a grill station for hamburgers and wings, a Mexican food station, a salad bar, and at least one more. The variety of options is nice, although there's definitely not anything very unique or special about the offerings here. Prices for entrees average around $9, while side items are typically $2-4. I ended up ordering the "lab burger" with a side of garlic fries. The burger and fries were decent, and I was pleased with the bacon, sprouts, and avocado toppings. Somehow it appeared as though the entire cafeteria had run out of ketchup, but there was still sriracha available. At the end of the day, this place is a cafeteria and it knows it is a cafeteria. Tables can be a little dirty, there is no exceptional service, and the food is nothing special for the price. The redeeming qualities would be the ease of access for LBNL employees and the beautiful view out towards SF from many of the tables. The water here was full bodied and on the softer side.

They had three different stations with a salad bar. Grill station had hamburgers and wings, a Mexican food station, a salad bar, and at least one more. The variety of options were nice, although there was not anything special the menu. Even more, prices for entrees averaged around $9+, while side items are typically $2-4. With a drink, that average price was $15. For the quality of the meal and the average food, it was not worth it. Their service was decent. For example, today, I ordered steel cut oatmeal; I purchased it before the line got long. But I waited 30 minutes. I asked the chef, and he rudely looked at me. And then addressed me that he would take care of it. He went away. 15 minutes passed. I asked another guy, and he said it was going to take an additional 10 minutes. I had to go back to work, so I left without the oatmeal and my refund. Rating Food: 2 Service: 3 Ambience: 4 (Great view of the Bay Area from the hill top, especially on a clear day.) Price: 2 Overall: 2 Unfortunately, this is the only option. But it is worth taking the bus to campus restaurants.
