Nice food!Masala dosa was really good!the sambar was tasty
They literally gave us spoiled/sour paneer!!! And didnt even apologize for it. The proce is astronomical and the portion size is small, sorry miniscule! Worst experience ever.
Sanaa was our server and she was great! I think she was the only server and was quick and efficient despite the busy restaurant.
We got less food than expected for the price of the food. However, the food did taste good.
Very disappointed with the Bindaas restaurant!! I ordered a takeout chicken wrap and it was completely wet and soggy, very unappetizing! The taste was ok, but it was also way too expensive. Service and atmosphere is great, but the value and the wrap was Bind-ASS!
What a lovely find. This north Indian restaurant located in Foggy Bottom was a welcome treat after a hot afternoon on the golf course. Please forgive me in advance for not knowing the names of these items, but my descriptions should be helpful. The starters were an A+ we had roasted sweet potatoes (pictured) that were topped with tamarind sauce pomegranates and mint chutney. Enough for 2 people. We loved it so much we ordered it twice. We also had the vacation packages, which is a potatoes patty, similarly seasoned but spicier. My only negative was the portion size was 1 patty vs. 2. I ordered a tamarind honey clove drink, refreshing, but not sweet. For our entrees, we had the pan friend sea bass (pictured). It was a bit bland. However, the curry salmon (pictured) was very flavorful! My partner can't do dairy, and he couldn't eat any. We had the in-house made pomegranate sorbet for dessert, and it was very good. Not tart and surprisingly sweet. My only suggestion would be to add additional seafood items (there were only the two options that we ate as entrees and I think a shrimp dish that they were out of) as well as more options that don't use cow milk. Otherwise, we enjoyed our meal, save the same bass which was a B-. If add more items without milk, there were very few, we would retuen.
Rude as hell and pathetic ambience and people running the place. Go at your own risk!!!
Ordered takeout from Bindas tonight, and everything was on point. The paneer tikka and biryani were both full of flavor and packed well for the ride home.
Special shoutout to Laxmi at the front counter — she handled a long line of customers with calm and grace. She double-checked my order without being asked, and her customer service made the whole experience smooth.
Highly recommend giving Bindas a try if you’re in the Denton area!
A different kind of sundown restaurant. The menu choice is good along with snacks and ‘chaat’ fast food. The food is average. It arrives super quick though.

For Indians, this place doesn't feel authentic.
The food tastes good. But, the quantity is pathetic. They give food sufficient enough to fill the appetite of a sparrow.
A family of three or four should order more times to make sure everyone gets a bite.
Overpriced for the quantity.

Interesting menu but be ready for tapas style portions at this Indian joint. Their avocado golagappa is a nice twist and the pav bhaji is delicious. Cocktails are well done- I recommend Perfect Mumbai & Peach of Mind. The service is great, attentive staff and helpful hostess.

The mango lassi alone would make me go back. The dishes were flavorful, appropriately spiced, and priced.

My friend and I came here for a quick bite on a Saturday night. We looked it up on instagram and they are many viral reels made on the restaurant however accept for the ambiance there's nothing great about it .
We ordered the chilli cheese puff and gunpowder fries and was given a chicken puff instead... after asking the waiter and him making a face at us the correct order was given ... the wait stuff clearly just dilly dally around and don't have manners and etiquette on how to speak to customers.
Our waiter was a man of Indian descent who was of mature age(older)with a beard.... and asked us in a much scolding manner of our order... we ordered a biryani to share (chicken) for main course.... which was awful it tasted like boiled rice and boiled chicken....
later on he came back to ask us about the food and I said it was okay... he said whats wrong with it and I said it doesn't taste like biryani.... he said firstly the portion is for 1 person ... (bare it mind we came here for a snack if we didn't want allot to eat its not his business if we don't want to order another entree) .... and then said to us if you wanted spicy we should have said so ...(which he himself should have suggested mild or spicy when taking the order itself)which is conducted at every other Indian restaurant!..... and then walking away with an attitude... Maybe he thought cause we are young women that he could talk to us in this tone . Bare in mind we are at a restaurant and not his relatives.... he did not come back to our table after and we had to ask another server for our check.
The restaurant also has a 20% gratituity already added so even after receiving bad service.
Very much disappointed and would not be returning! Match your food standards with your decor .

Beware of theft - 20% tip is mandatorily included in the bill, whether you like your visit or not. It’s a small font print on the menu, if you ever notice.
Waiters’ wages here is a responsibility of patrons and Not of the establishment. How’s that?

To start with, the food is just okay. Nothing special about the food. We ordered tikka masala fries which was a good option as compared to our other order. Wada pav is just okay and very oily. It's more of fusion vada pav but not authentic. Chicken biryani is the worst of all three orders, it's not good at all and the taste and color is way off compared to other places. This is all about food, but they charge a gratuity of 20% for two people? Haven't seen other places doing that. I would have been still happy with the food if the taste was great but it's not that good.
