Ok, so this is a great place if you are vegan and looking for some decent Indian food. However, if you are looking for authentic vegetarian Indian food, this is not the place for you. We actually didn't even realize it was a vegan restaurant until we arrived. We simply thought it was a vegetarian restaurant with vegan options.
I had found this place when I searched up Vegetarian Indian Food into Yelp. After looking at the reviews, it looked pretty decent and I decided to try it out.
We got the Veggie Thali and the Veggie Biryani. The Thali was just average, especially because there were limited quantities of Indian subjies you can make vegan. You will not find certain items like Paneer dishes(Indian Cheese ) or Malai dishes because they typically include dairy. It came with 3 subjies, 2 roties and a dessert. They did not allow us to substitute the dessert for an additional subji, but instead you would have to pay an additional $2 which I was not a fan of. The roties were also not in house made, they definitely tasted store bought, and simply heated up. The Veggie Biryani actually tasted pretty good, it was fragrant, full of veggies, and had a nice kick of spice to it.
The interior seems really new and clean, but it has limited seating, so takeout might be your best option if you're planning on going with more than 4 people. The staff is friendly and service is pretty fast . We did chat with one of the owners while our food was being made, and we asked them what they use instead of ghee ( clarified indian butter ) He told me they use a plant based ghee, which was not necessarily healthier, but it was vegan. Overall I don't think I would come back, but I would still definitely recommend it any of my vegan friends looking for a Vegan Indian Restaurant.
