Chicken tikka roll with green chutney is simple but delicious. The portions are really small - though $8 might be as cheap as it gets for kaati rolls.

Super affordable vegan options! Can’t wait to go back! Please note dine in section is not accessible, you will need to go down stairs to eat there

We stumbled upon this place quite suddenly. The love for Indian food and price point made us try it out. The restaurant is one stairs down but you'll love the interior.The setup is very comfy and if you're a fan of Bollywood music, you'll love their Playlist. The menu is available on scanning a QR code and the variation of the food will spark up your taste buds for Indian food. We ordered Samosa Chaat - the best I had in NY, Rasmalai - perfect softness and very flavorful, Bihari Kathi Roll - good blend of spicy chicken filling.I must mention about the staff who served us, she came down the stairs for 5 times to bring us food, offered to help with the menu and everything. She's the best!Would definitely come back.

I really wanted to like this brightly lit joint and its take on Indian fast food, but my omelette kathi roll was...tasteless. Neither the egg nor the veggies had any spice, not even salt. And the paratha was...greasy, excessively so. The coriander chutney was good, but I'd rather have a flavorful kathi roll plus chutney - not just chutney. Maybe it was an off night...

Hands down the best desi food in curry hill! The restaurant features authentic dishes with a modern taste and has classics like authentic khati rolls and unique dishes like the famous desipoutine.

I can’t speak to the food of the service because I’ve only gotten takeout, but this is one of the best Indians I’ve had in a long time. I was very pleasantly surprised by the chicken tikka masala. It’s very delicious, robust and a bit sweet. They also have gluten-free bread, which is a godsend because it is impossible to find anywhere and the portioning is really great for the bread. The create itself is perfect portion, especially when delivered. I would definitely order this again and the pricing is pretty pretty good for the area.

Great food and lots of care was put into providing us with all the sides and accessories. We ordered catering for a party of 50 and the food was phenomenal! Absolutely recommended for catering.

I’m so happy that I found this place! I’ve been hankering to find a good kati roll (or is it Kathi?) for years.I found the chicken roll here to be superior to the kati roll company and had way more flavor. The staff were very friendly and the place was well taken care of.I’m going to make sure I swing by next time I pass through nyc! ✌️
