The negative reviews seem to be primarily directed at online delivery order—I always order and pickup directly from the counter and have had awesome food! It’s warm, fresh, fast, and well priced. Definitely one of the better price center options. My theory is that ucsd students are actually just impossible to please (seriously why does literally every food spot on campus never have higher than 3 star?). I loved this place and will return!

This is one of my favorite places to eat on the campus. The burritos are the real star. The chicken tikka masala is the real star. I've tried the Makhini one as well, but it wasn't as good. I wish they lamb as a choice here as well.

Got the burrito combo box on Uber Eats BOGO promo, the burrito was huge and probably weighed 2lbs, it was completely packed with rice but the spices probably cardamom was overwhelming, couldn't finish it and not much protein in the burrito. Samosa was good and loved it with the mint sauce.
