This used to be the go to spot for trendy Desi food but unfortunately the high prices here no longer justify the experience. While it is understandable that food prices are up across the city, the food quality has also gone down with many alternatives in the area.

The food was ridiculous. We ordered parathas expecting proper stuffing, but there was barely any filling at all. What we were served was just very thick maida dough, dry and heavy, nothing close to a real paratha.
To make it worse, the food upset my stomach for the entire day, which says a lot about the quality and preparation. The chai was also served cold, which was the final strike.
Overall, poor food quality, slow service, and zero value for money.
Would never recommend this place,don’t waste your time or money here.

The food is not good at all. Hours after having the food - all we can feel is bad stomach and oil.
Staff is good. The food feels like bland chaos, in try to make fusion.
Like paneer taco is a deep fried Indian poori with paneer bhaji. Most of the food is doughy and bland - not representing indian food at all.

Some of the best butter chicken I’ve ever had. My server, Veni, was so sweet and attentive. Will definitely be back to try the fusion options.

We visited this place for the first time after seeing it on social media, and it did not disappoint. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. We were greeted kindly and seated right away. Our hostess, Vani, took our drink order and later returned to walk us through some of their most popular menu items.
Based on her recommendations, we ordered the lamb shank, butter chicken pasta, shrimp curry, and chicken momos. Every dish was absolutely amazing—flavorful, well-prepared, and satisfying. The experience overall was excellent, and the staff was incredibly friendly, especially toward our 3-year-old, which we truly appreciated. We’ll definitely be back!

I had a wonderful experience at Parathawala today !!! The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and made us feel comfortable from the moment we arrived. What made the visit truly special was how they went out of their way to celebrate my birthday 🥺🥺🥺 it was such a thoughtful and memorable gesture. The atmosphere was cozy, the service was excellent, and the overall experience left me really happy. Highly recommend this place for great food and even better hospitality. I’ll definitely be coming back!

The host and waiter were extremely nice and welcoming. They had beautiful energy and definitely deserve a raise lol. The food was good but honestly I expected a lot more flavor.

I don’t see what’s all the hype about from this place. It doesn’t even have any flavor to the food but they charge high prices compared to a fancier spot. The foods are pretty bland and not that good. Growing up eating flavorful food and trying places that have flavor and spices from the food isn’t that hard to distinct. I came to try the viral smash burger it’s literally so bland the burger meat itself has no flavor.. The only food that tasted okay at best was the lamb shank biryani rice was dry but it had some what spice on it. The other dishes are pretty bland and mid to be honest better off at any other spots and top of that the host is kinda picky offering free desserts to certain guests and showing it off loud and proud. Don’t come here it’s not worth the hype it died out back in the day and isn’t the same as before.
