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 !

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.
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.
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!
This little place far exceeded my expectations! The food was amazing!!! The Bhel Puri was the most delicious combination of textures and flavors; definitely try it!
