This may be the best "undiscovered" gem in ABQ right now. Dennis, who had Sophia's on north Forth when Guy Fiero featured it was cooking, when I just happened to stop in and the guy is a master. I don't especially like hummus because of the texture but Dennis's, with some sort of pickled cauliflower on the sid, was out of this world. We had mushroom pakora that was perfectly cooked and incredibly tasty. I am so thrilled that this place is here. Check it out!

My three year old son and I enjoyed our time. We ordered falafel, which was fried crispy and delicious. We had the pili rotesserie chicken with lovely and hot spices on the side, which were a great compliment to charred and tender meat on the bone. As a bonus, the owner made a pizza for my son (with no spice). Win win. So glad we gave this spot a try and will be back. A unique flavor with well done classics. Only downside was we didn't see a bathroom.

Really disappointed in their false advertising. We show up at 11am with our coupon for brunch and are told that they don't have brunch. Why advertise for brunch and Saturday and Sunday including coupons when you don't have it available. Not sure I'd go back for their regular menu. On top of that we were ignored for the first few minutes and then they weren't even nice about not having brunch. Disappointed in their service.

I was driving by and found this place and gave it a shot. I ordered a pepperoni with the ground beef, and it was loaded with flavor. I will definitely be returning here again!

When I was first looking for options to try something new near the hotel this place wasn't immediately appealing. I'm very glad I gave it a chance! I think it's a very unique fusion casual dining place. I had the chicken tikka pizza slice and the masala fries. Fries were very well seasoned and while chicken tikka on a pizza might sound odd it was a very good combination. I see that they also specialize in Pili Pili chicken but they were out when I visited. I highly recommend it and will be coming back the next time I'm in Albuquerque to get some of that chicken!

Ordered individual slices to taste to decide which ones to order as a whole in the future along with 2 orders of masala fries. Received a cheese pizza with toppings tossed on pizza that fall off, instead of baking in to the pizza. How lazy! Masala fries were plain unsalted fries! Change the menu to plain fries if you can't fulfill the item description!

I had the beef bowl. It was cooked perfectly. My wife had the lamb bowl. She really enjoyed it. We also had the Masala Fries, very good. Finally we took some hummus home. It was very well prepared. I only think that if they had a little less lettuce in the bowls and a little more of the roasted tomatoes, it would have been perfect. I would also like to see the bowls with rice.

Caveat: Not a review of food or service because this is the second time I have tried to go to this restaurant during their business hours and have found them closed. the one time I was actually inside, all their beer taps were down.The food may be great, but the business/management is clearing having problems.There should at least be a sign on the door if they are closing unexpectedly. And they need to shut down their online ordering system when they are closed, so people don’t place orders, show up for them, find them closed, and then also have to contact them when they reopen to figure out if they are going to be charged or not for food not received.
If you want something different and good? This is where you want eat. Reasonable prices. We tried a little of everything. Sorry did not get a pic of everything. Was busy shoveling it in our face. Lol

Ordered delivery online. Food was tasty but the order was completely wrong. Paid $2 extra for roasted beets on my tostada, and it came with a few slices of raw radish instead of roasted beets (not even remotely a substitute, and nobody contacted me to ask if this was ok.) The "eggplant" tostada was the same- they were out of eggplant so they just stuck some cauliflower on it instead. Again- no contact about these substitutions from the delivery driver or the restaurant. Finally, the spinach tostada was not at all what is pictured either- it's basically just a tiny salad (5 pieces of raw baby spinach leaves) on a fried tortilla. There was no escabeche on any of the tostadas, despite being highlighted in their menu as coming on all of them. (They did have a little pico.) Amount of hummus was also less than pictured. Finally, we also ordered the "tikka bowl" and the "chicken tikka" that came with it is just roast chicken. Definitely not tikka-style marinated chicken. Not sure what happened there. After paying multiple surcharges for delivery to get what we thought would be a mouthwatering meal- we are definitely not happy. Zero quality control. (Even though I love their concept and the food tasted good- it wasn't at all what we ordered; would have cancelled if we'd known they were out of those prime ingredients.)

Food was not tasty, service was not great. I come from a big city so take what I say for what it is worth.
