Daawat a Ishq Reviews
I came here to eat mix prantha with my family and this the authentic Indian food we enjoyed a lot. Very satisfied with service.Thanks
I am very satisfied with food and services. Love it
Best Samosa Chaat I’ve had! Vegan choices with tofu (I had Tofu Saag)! Only Indian food I’ve found with tofu as protein option in Portland. Great service. People care if you are enjoying food and if spice level is right for you. Covered outdoor seating was nice on summer evening. We will be back!
