The food is soo tasty! My husband and I always end up coming back to Nukkad when we are wanting to eat out. We got our family hooked on it too! Super yummy, tastes fresh and so many options. Love love love

They’re really good with their street food options, and I generally love their food. However, this Diwali, I tried their special Kathiyawadi Thali, and it was disappointing. Only the roti and one eggplant sabji were good—the rest was honestly not up to par. Please taste test thoroughly before introducing new items for customers!

Visited this place last year and wasn’t impressed but today (Saturday evening) was pleasantly surprised - food quality has really improved and everything tasted good - chaat platter, kadai paneer & shikanji drink.
