Fabulous Food

We have eaten there many times and have never had a mediocre meal yet. They have a separate vegan menu. Most items they serve can be made vegan. They even have vegan lassi and roti (type of vegan naan). The owners are amazing and personable.

Great vegan food and staff.

This place is an unexpected surprise. They have vegan options and everything is made to order. So you can say extra spicy or easy on the ginger or whatever you like because they cook it to your request. The flavor is amazing. And although they have meat options, they pride on serving vegan too. This is a family owned and operated business and the staff and owner is very pleasant.

Pros: Great staff and customer service. , Excellent vegan food high quality ingredients , Excellent quality and made to order fresh

Delicious!

Lots of vegan options, about half the menu. Some of the best Indian food I’ve had. A bit pricy, but worth it, especially for the giant samosas!

Fantastic Experience

This was our first stop on our Boise adventure. And we were pleasantly surprised at all the vegan options and how well they accommodate for us plant based folk. Really kind wait staff, delicious food, and great little ambiance. If you’re craving Indian food, this is the spot to go!!

Pros: Lots of Vegan options, Awesome service , Delicious food

Indian fix for vegans

Not the best Indian you will ever have, but decent, and they understand vegan. Lots of Indian restaurants offer veggie options, but not include cheese, ghee, and cream. Here they have a truly vegan section on their menu. I got the bindhi (okra) and palak (cooked) greens, which was enough for dinner and lunch the next two days! Spice is to order. Both dishes were too oily for me (canola, I checked), but I was able to scoop off most of it. The place was empty on Monday evening, but a couple of people stopped in for carry out. You will find it up an exterior escalator surrounded by shops and buildings.

Pros: Substantial list of vegan options

Cons: Too oily (canola)

Nice Indian restaurant

Nice Indian restaurant with very-well marked vegan options on the menu including tofu. Staff is friendly. My only complaint would be the children’s video playing on the tv when I arrived. It was a bit loud and distracting. But once another group came in to dine, they put on very relaxing Indian classical ragas and music.

Pros: Plenty of vegan options., Nice levels of spice.

Yummy!

Not the best Indian food I've had but it was delicious! The buffet is a great price for such a wide variety of vegan options!! They gave us a vegan bread instead of naan for no extra costs.

Pros: Lots of vegan options

Favorite restaurant

This is my favorite restaurant. Wait times tend to be a little high, but the owner is always walking around talking to guests making for a friendly environment. Food is about $16-17 a plate, so I can’t visit often, but when I do it’s always worth it. Hands down best curry I’ve ever tasted. Try the Madras Sabzi! Ps - if you’re taking leftover curry to go ask for a liquid to-go container or else you’ll get styrofoam which will cause your curry to spill out.

Pros: delicious vegan options

Cons: long wait times

Yum

The lunch buffet is more than half vegan. You can ask for vegan naan with your meal as well. The food is delicious and prepared fresh daily. You can seriously fill your plate with the vegan options here. We went for dinner just once. The vegan options are plentiful but it took an hour to get the meal as there is only one cook in the back. Since that time we have just stuck to the lunch menu. Would love it if they did a dinner buffet. We’d make the trip much re often.

My fave Indian place in Boise!

This is not the best Indian food you've ever had, but it is the only Indian place in town that labels it's menu with vegan options and there are many. It is in a good location. The service is not great, so don't go in a hurry.

Pros: Menu labels vegan options. , Many vegan choices.

Cons: No vegan naan. , Bad service.

Highly recommend

Such great authentic Indian food in a relaxing environment in downtown Boise. The menu has a section that is marked 'Vegan' so it was easy to find what I needed, and the servings were decent for the prices. Good and friendly service and a nice atmosphere to sit outside as well.

Pros: Lots of vegan options

excellent flavors, fast, and friendly with nice atmosphere too!

They were very friendly as I arrived and showed me how the vast majority of the daily buffet is vegan and there's nice Indian music and windows for a lovely setting. The price is very reasonable and the flavors are excellent. I have had better Indian in other places so 4 not 5 stars, of course it's usually at a higher price point. All in all this is a special little spot.

Great Indian food!

I absolutely LOVE Indian food, but had recently had some sub par bhindi masala. That was NOT the case here. The lunch buffet was great each time I visited it. Including the bhindi masala. Plenty vegan options on the menu and buffet. Also super nice people and quick service.

Pros: Plenty vegan choices, Very good service, Lunch buffet

Great Vegan Indian Food in Boise!

Super friendly & knowledgeable owners. We ordered two curries and the gluten-free naan, all of which was some of the best Indian food we have ever had (and we have eaten a lot of it over the years). The food is made from scratch, and our dishes were ready in 15 minutes. Highly recommend this restaurant if you are in the Boise area!

Pros: DELICIOUS food, Friendly owners, Nice atmosphere

Best Indian food outside of India!

The food is made from scratch, is authentic, and the best Indian food I've ever had in this country! They know what "vegan" means, and even offer delicious, giant lassis made with coconut milk! That said, we had to wait 45-60 minutes for our food :-( They apologized and said that wasn't typical. That said, the food was totally worth the wait...next time I'll just bring a book. ;-)

Pros: Best Indian food ever, Vegan Lassi, Outdoor seating

Cons: Long wait
