The paratha tacos here are divine, especially the spiced honey roasted squash! The paratha is flaky and buttery goodness and is a perfect complement to the squash. The paratha tacos are twice as large as regular corn tortilla tacos and much heavier. Don’t forget to try the jalapeño cilantro sauce next to the silverware and water station!

This place was pretty good for a snacky style yumyum.  I had a tiny one, and the small ones are tiny and it was delicious.  I had tofu. My boyfriend had the large paratha one with tofu in it and he loved it.  It’s a great idea and I would go back. Recommended.

Very nice customer service. I forgot my glasses and they were all too happy to read the whole menu to me. Oops :-) I've never had tofu but today I had a tofu taco with pesto arugula crispy chickpeas cheese and I asked for my pickled tomatillos on the side which was good a good thing. The tortilla they use was to die for. I also had some delicious blood orange kombucha. They let me try the grapefruit kombucha too and it was equally delicious! **EDIT** Oops I had the paneer cheese taco. Never had that either though. But I loved it so much I went back today. I'm also Not vegetarian.

Looked like an intriguing fusion mix. Very creative idea that’s doesn’t really yield to much. Food: Ordered the paneer paratha(taco) The paratha tasted like a frozen paratha that you can get at any Indian store and the pesto mint chutney was bad as well. Ambience: decent ambience for a order and fine place Service: Mostly self service Value for money: Not worth the 9 dollars you pay for something that looks and taste like that.

Fusion taco place serving indian-inspired taco fillings in a paratha (corn tortilla option also available). The tacos were delicious. The veggie paneer taco had tender paneer cubes in a spinach pesto sauce and crunchy chickpeas. The spicy lamb paratha taco and the duck confit taco were also good. The tomatillo salsa was tasty without being too spicy. Outside table seating is a good place to people watch while eating.

Food was delicious. I had the pork belly paratha taco, and it was a fantastic mix of flavors. Cashier was friendly and the food was quick. The restaurant was clean and has a nice atmosphere as well.
