    Aloo Gobhi

    Roll Pod is located in Bellevue and they serve mostly Kati rolls. It's a Paratha stuffed with Indian flavored veggies or meat and some chutneys. They have a decent amount of options for vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike. I tried the Aloo Gobi. It was too oily for my liking and the Paratha was very thin. Service and ambiance are decent. But I decided to do a takeaway!

    So exited to try The Roll Pod. Love the concept of roti with an egg and delicious Indian fillings! This is a quick fast food place where you order from kiosk, plates & silverware are composable. We got 2 roll pods meals which came with 2 "burritos". Aloo Golbi, chicken Masala and lamb. Roll pod which comes with 2 rolls starts at $14.99. Most of the fillings are a dollar extra and if you want to add an egg it's almost $2. The only down side to this place is that these rolls can add up, although filling, be prepared to spent close to $18-20 per person for 2 pods.

    Butter chicken was pitched in the order terminal with a discount that didn't pop up on checkout. Counter person said discount no longer applied. Tried the butter chicken with rice anyway. Butter chicken was largely flavorless. Music was uncomfortably loud. Rice was pretty good.

    The roles are pretty hardy. I thought I needed two to myself so we got 22 packs each, but really three would've been fine for both of us and we're not super big eaters, but we're not little eaters either. There's not much interaction aside from getting your food. The workers are in the back in the zone. I got the chicken masala and the mushroom masala, and both were really good really saucy and plentiful filling.

    Great food. Its the best roll I ever had. I love their paneer schezwan and achari aalo. Even the pav bhaji was very tasty. Service and ambience 10 on 10.

    Paneer masala & paneer chili

    I've wanted to try The Roll Pod since they were only a food truck. I never go to SLU during the weekday so I thought it'd never happen...and then I learned they have brick and mortar locations now!! I love going to Garden D'Lights so I decided to stop by here for dinner beforehand. The menu is pretty simple (basically built for a food truck) - roll or bowl - with a variety of fillings to choose from, including several veg*n options. I opted for 2 rolls with paneer masala and paneer chili. While there is a person there to cook the food, you are expected to place your own order through the touch screen or your phone. You also bus your own table if you dine it. Overall rolls were great and I'd 100% eat them again! I paid $1 extra for the chili and I feel it was mostly worth it. 2 rolls was quite filling so good portions there. My dining partner went with a half bowl made with chicken masala. It was very well received and he'd happily get it again.

    Ordered a tri-combo roll pod. For each item, you can choose the filling; there are meat or vegetarian options. Order at the counter and find your own table. There were plenty of tables and the restaurant was clean. Staff were friendly and food was ready quickly.

    Tikka masala and two potato based (aloo?) rolls. Mmm

    Oh man, so good. I've been avoiding this place for too long, worried I'd enter into this tiny strip mall Indian restaurant and be faced with options I don't really understand and no pics. Not at all! First of all, super clean and well spaced interior with colorful fun pics on the walls. Menu is very clear how to order and has pictures of the food. It is fast food style ordering, at the counter where they call your number to pick it up whether you are dine in or to go. I loved the food. I'm a sucker for a good wrap regardless... burritos, zhua Bing wraps, summer rolls, pita, and now roll pod. The primary food is roti (thin chewy-ish pancake) with a fried egg, salad, sauce, and your choice of filling stuffed inside. They have several meat and many veg options. I got a trio of chicken Tikka, and two aloo (potato, right?) based dishes. Each was unique and each was delicious! I'm definitely going back, but ordering two instead of three to not overeat (again...)

    First time here and I was very pleasantly surprised. I got a meatless wrap without the egg. Heatwise, I ordered a three out of five which was pretty appropriate. My friends who ordered a zero, they couldn't finish their roll because it was still too spicy. I thought the flavors were fantastic in the three different things that I tried. If there was a location here in Des Moines, I might frequent it except I think the pricing is a little high. That said, it's in Bellevue so what are you going to do?

    Chili chicken Combo Pod
    John C.

    Super authentic place and I felt like it was a popular type of street food I've never tried before. I was not familiar with this type of food before so the menu was slightly overwhelming being a new customer. However, I knew I needed to order a roll pod and get the bread bun too-kinda like a toasted Hawaiian roll. The roll pod came out super hot and fresh and I picked chili chicken for my filling. I also got egg in my wrap and asked for it to be spicy. I could taste the heat right away. I also like the curry that came with the dish too as it was spicy too. I would gladly come back and try something else again when I'm hungry and in the area.

    Chicken masala and Mango Lassi
    Lisa J.

    Very unassuming place for yummy Indian food on the go! I came across this place after overhearing people talk about this place. I was curious and happened to be hungry so I headed over to see what the hype was about. The employees are very friendly and nice. You order on a big iPad screen and then just wait for your order. I had the chicken masala in the naan roll, and the mango lassi. They were both so good!! The roll was very spicy even at "medium" so be careful if you're sensitive to spice. My mouth was on fire but I loved it! The mango lassi was really fresh and wasn't too sweet. I had an upset stomach before coming, but the yogurt in the lassi actually made me feel much better for the rest of the day. Price was decent, it was ~$8 for the chicken masala roll and the lassi was $4. There is plenty of seating inside and a bathroom. Very casual place to eat quickly or to just grab and go!

    Delicious!! If you like flavor come here! 1 pod was a solid lunch for me. If I were hungry perhaps another side. I can totally scarf down 2 too. I have tried, chicken, mutton, paneer and they are good! I personally like the mutton! My only negative: you can request spice level 1-5. 1 is mild 5 is spicy. I don't handle spice well and is their "1, mild" was still quite spicy for me. Wish I had milk to temper my mouth. Service- nice Ambiance- spacious, homey. Lots of seating options. Location- in a strip mall with parking available. Value- good, for one pod after taxes $9 and change. Recommend- yes.

    If you are gluten-free and anywhere near the PNW, run, do not walk, to I Can't Believe It's Bread…read more I stopped by this morning and picked up a pack of lemon poppyseed muffins (4 for $19) and a pack of cinnamon rolls (4 for $20), and I'm still thinking about both. A muffin didn't even make it home, I ate it immediately in the car. It was moist, fluffy, bright, and absolutely delicious. You would never know it's gluten-free. Truly bakery-quality perfection. I've been craving their cinnamon rolls for weeks, and they absolutely lived up to the hype. Soft, gooey, comforting, and indulgent in the best way. But the food is only half the magic here. From the moment you walk in, the space is filled with great vibes, amazing energy, and the kindest staff. Everyone was so welcoming, smiling, and genuinely happy, it honestly lifted my whole morning. They offer an incredible selection: fresh breads, focaccia, cookies, pastries, soups, sauces, Italian imported pasta, and more. It's the kind of place where you want to try everything. And then, when I was checking out, they gave me a box of gluten-free Cheez-Its. THE box. The one that's sold out everywhere. The one my husband and I have been searching for for weeks. I was overjoyed. That small, thoughtful gesture meant so much and perfectly sums up how special this place is. We live in Seattle, so it's not the easiest trip anymore, but between the incredible gluten-free treats and the exceptional service, we will absolutely continue making the effort to come as often as we can. Great people. Great food. Amazing energy. A total win, not just for Bellevue, but for the entire state. Thank you for creating such a joyful, welcoming, and delicious space.

The fact that these were also coated in oil was pretty nice. On the inside, I thought the prawns were cooked well - they remained pretty soft and didn't appear overcooked I did feel like the spice was pretty much missing, though. I ordered 4/5 stars, but it tasted more like 1/5 stars as there was a pretty significant lack of spice that took away from a lot of the flavor potential. Speaking of the missing flavor, there should've been a lot more sauce added to this dish - either poured on top of the prawns or the prawns come sitting in it. The benefit of this is that it you can mix everything with the rice - and this sauce coats the rice to make it taste good. The way it's currently presented, the prawns are too large to really eat with the rice, and mixing the two will just result in eating the meat and taking another bite of plain rice because there isn't enough sauce to coat the rice. This dish just ended up being eating the prawns by themselves - the rice wasn't super useful As a result, after finishing I really wasn't that full For the price (around 20 ish) there are a good amount of prawns, but I wouldn't really say you're getting a good deal here
