"I ordered Butter Chicken, parathas, chilli bajji, baingan bajji. All the bajji were absolutely delicious. Butter chicken was extremely sweet unlike any butter chicken dish I've tasted elsewhere - disappointing. Paratha were nice. The guy that runs it was really nice also."

"Cannot rave enough about the food and the amazing guy who runs it. We stumbled upon this gem on a casual stroll through Victoria Park. Had the masala chaye (the best chaye we’ve had in Leicester so far! And which the very kind chef gave to us free of charge!?), cheese dosa and potato bajji. Very reasonably priced and stellar taste! The cheese dosa was simply out of this world! What’s more is that in addition to the complimentary chaye, they kindly made us some complimentary mirch bajji as well just to try out as we were debating earlier on whether or not to have it before placing our order (100% recommended btw). Truly amazed at the hospitality! We stood by the food truck enjoying our food and chatting away with the friendly chef and his friend who were manning the truck together. Had the best experience! Great food with even greater company. Will definitely be visiting again!"

"The owner is very sweet and super generous with the food. It’s clear he cares for his customers and the work he does. Despite it simply being a food van and not a typical restaurant, this place is my favourite food spot simply because of the quality of the food and hospitality"

"So happy I finally had time to stop here. The Tikka Masala was the best I've ever had. The chef was very welcoming and made sure the spice level was just right. I will be back very soon."

"This place needs to be more known. I'm not the one to really like Indian food. As past experiences weren't good. One day decided to check it out with some friends and what can I say. Probably one of the best Indian foods I've had! Potato bajji, dosa, veg noodles the whole lot! I highly recommend this place! Give it a shot it won't let you down! Owner stopped serving curry but everything else on the menu is great!"

"Never write reviews but wanted to spread the love on this little gem! You can literally watch the dosas get made fresh with such skill and so quickly, everything tastes absolutely amazing and is cheap as chips. Clarendon park is much of the same but this is class homemade street food, made quick and tastes so good! Perfect for a summer eve stroll or to take home or the park!! Also it’s all gluten free!!"
