Mimi was great! Cocktails were great food was great. Food was out fast and cocktails were as well. We came in late and food was out in under 10 mins! And the place was busy

Great food and drink experience!

Phenomenal vegan options!!! Amazing drinks! Friendly staff! Great for a date or group up to 6!

Came in to get some food and drinks. Food and drinks are good. But the bartender was pretty rude. This location attached to apartments in San Jose, not a trendy bar in a metro area. Bartender needs to chill and relax a bit.

This restaurant is blended with the same space as curry up so we were able to try some drinks and eat good food at the same time.The drinks were okay, they didn’t have 2 of the drinks I asked for and had to look for alternatives. To people who go to a restaurant wanting to try out a specific dish this might be a buzz kill.The food itself was good, I really liked the naughty naan - the spices and fusion as a pizza was fun. Pani puri had very good taste too expect the puris were really small. The thali while it looks and tastes good doesn’t come with shareable portions.Found the prices to be on the expensive side.

Nice variety of Indian starters and quick food, with good options of main course like Thali and combo bowls.They have good cocktails too!I liked the panner naan pizza, and the death by Tikka masala bowl. The pani poori was also really good!Tacos were not that great.The portion sizes were relatively smaller.The ambience was also a good Indian vibe. Overall a nice place to hang out and have dinner with friends.

Excellent vibe. Lots of good Indian foods in the form of western takes. Personally I really enjoyed the thalis. Also a great selection of Indian inspired cocktails and drinks.

I had a great drink! Too bad the place reeked of curry! Didn't realize it was attached to Curry restaurant

Great selection of whiskey, nice bartenders and good appetizers. What else do you need?

Great atmosphere, great location and bartenders right off Zanker, for a weeknight drink and a bite. Parking was good.
