vegetarian fare! - Edit
I was glad to find something in New Orleans beside frenchfries! It was good- had the appetizer falafel and the ras malai for dessert-never had that before-it was interesting-but I'm more vegan than vegetarian.

I love Salt n' Pepper - Edit
You watch your food being cooked and they are very accommodating. You want a veg curry; just tell them what veggies you want. The naan is vegan and it's delicious. I had the lentil curry, just tell them you are vegan when you order.
Read moreIt's a small place, so if it's busy, say right at lunch time, you might want to come back later. I didn't think it was expensive, especially for NOLA.
Pros: lots of options, fresh, friendly

Fine food - Edit
We have been in New Orleans over Christmas, and were struggling to find a place to eat on Christmas Day. Salt n' Pepper were open, and they served good authentic Indian food in a friendly informal atmosphere. They didn't have all the dishes on the menu, but instead suggested a special dish based on the fresh vegetables they had. It was a little pricy but the food was fine.

Vegan Friendly - Edit
The staff could not be nicer and they are very aware of what items are vegan. I really appreciated the service. The restaurant is just a little hole in the wall but I thought the food was very good. Get it to go and take it to the park for better ambiance.

don't waste your time - Edit
This place is a fast-food style place, but we waited 45 minutes for 3 entrees. When we finally got the food, it was just "meh." I wish we hadn't wasted our time here!

Terrible - Edit
This place was greasy. The food (I ordered aloo gobi) was spicy and gave me indigestion. It was gross.

Gooood food, very vegan friendly - Edit
So, the outward appearance is, as others note, sketchy to say the least. But, but! The food is great. Was at a convention in veg-unfriendly NOLA with my meat consuming companions. This place worked for everyone. The proprietor is very friendly, and knowledgeable. All, or almost all the Indian cuisine is vegan -- even the Naan. It does tend to be on the hot side, so be aware. My work companions suggested the second visit, which is rare. They usually follow me somewhere once per trip!

dig it - Edit
I've gotta say, I was kinda skeptical when I walked into this little hole in the wall. But I was excited to see a statement at the bottom of the menu that all vegetable dishes are vegan or vegetarian (only one dish contains dairy). I ordered dahl and rice, and the server reassured me that it was vegan. It was delicious- pretty spicy but wonderful with the long grain rice. I also had some of my friend's chana and it was really good. I want to go back and try all of the other vegetable dishes on the menu. The people there are really friendly and the place has a reputation for being darn tasty. I encourage you to give it a try.
Read morePros: dahl, cooks are vegan informed, easy to find- close to canal st.
Cons: a little grimy

excited to exhaust menu - Edit
Definitely agree with "shpicy-kins!" but all-due-respect disagree with "dumpy". Yep, it's small but I was impressed that the chairs, tables and even the floors were very clean. The guy taking my (vegan) order was super accommodating, friendly and informative. It's places like this that help us spicy-phobic people start to come around. Yum.
Read morePros: yummy, informative for vegans, delicious

Not Impressed - Edit
There are plenty of veg options, which is nice, but it took sooo long to get our food. When it finally came, it was not very good. I expected more food for the $ and the wait. Then the waitress messed up our check and over-charged us. After explaining it to her twice, she finally fixed it. The atmosphere is that of a truck stop, but the location is nice if you're a vegan in the French Quarter. Give it a shot, everyone else seems to love it.

Tasty hole-in-the-wall - Edit
This place is a bit dumpy, but the food was tasty and the staff is super friendly. It's also convenient to the touristy center of New Orleans
