At first I was surprised by the portion (reaaaally small) but then we decided to take 3 dishes for 2 and it was enough. The taste are great but some dishes were very surprising (the Bhel Puri was cold). The wine is good, service is fast and nice. But please stop putting this 80’s techno music, it’s terrible. Fun at the beginning but not something you enjoy listening 1h or more.

Had an absolutely delightful time. The ala carte menu offers a wide array of nostalgia tingling Indian street food eats. The tasting menu with wine pairings is a delicious and an educational ride! The owner, also a sommelier is excited to share nuggets of wine knowledge. Restaurant is meticulously and pain stakingly decorated to create a simple and meaningful vibe of Indian streets.

Authentic Indian street food in an intimate cozy setting. A little gem on Divis that everyone should check out some time. Brunch on the weekends is a fantastic mix of western brunch dishes and Indian breakfast cuisine. Also Jazz records played on Tuesday nights!

A unique gastro-bar pairing tangy Indian street food with wine. The personal touch of having the owner and sommelier Kavita present made it an experience worth remembering.

Indian cuisine with a twist. You can get classic street food and curated drinks. We went there for Sunday brunch and there is a limited menu of 8 or 9 savory items. The flavors are reminiscent of what you can expect in upscale Mumbai restaurants. Seating is limited 4 or 5 tables, however on a nice day you can sit outside. Parking can be a challenge. While the meal was decent, especially chili cheese sandwich was a huge hit, the chai and poha were uninspired.

This place was excellent. If I could give it six stars I would. They have a tasting menu offered at a "per tasting menu" rate, so we were able to share one tasting menu and order additional dishes a la carte. Every single thing we ate was excellent, truly everything. The service was top notch and the food was unique and flavorful, unlike things I've gotten elsewhere. Even with so many great places to try in the city, I will certainly return. No reservations, but we didn't wait at all on a Friday around 6:30.

Not a restaurant, not a cuisine specific foodlet, not a bar, not a snack joint, OMG what is this place, this is indian paradox ! Famous for its wine pairing with indian dishes. Whats in a name, enter with a open mind & palette for wine. Though you can savor just the food by itself, which is fabulous! We as usual hopped in for brunch & they have separate menu for brunch, lunch and dinner. We ordered the lemongrass tea & madras coffee - hands down tea stands out, coz first you wont find it in many restaurants and filter coffee is just too traditional for everyones liking. Tea - 5/5, Coffee - 4/5 Anda bhurji with bread - warm, goeey and flavorful the bhurji has light and strong flavors balanced by the perfectly roasted bread on the side. Artsy presentation and really filling. I liked it but may be a lil runny for some people. 4/5 Veggie cheese toast - this is a meal in itself, tasty and tons of cheese. Eat it while its hot. Really it’s difficult to mess this one up. 5/5 We came really close for ordering a kanda pohe but had no space to embark on that journey(next time) Just the ambience & decoration deserve a second visit though, I will go to this place on dinner(craving some chaats) All in, There is no paradox in the fact that we need more such places in sf & you need to visit this place ASAP ! I meant go, eat .. now !
