We had the bahubali sandwich, chili paneer, the dabang dosa, the masoori dosa, and the pav bhaji.The sandwich and fries were delicious. The paneer chili was nice and tender. Both of the dosa had a little more spice than usual, which I don't mind, but my family found it spicy. The pav bhaji was lacking a little in spices but was still good.I am only giving it three stars because of the service and condition. We came at a time where only the four of us (me, my wife, and my two grandparents) were the only customers. There were several people that came and went with to-go orders, but it was more like one at a time kind of thing never busy.The only time anyone came to our table was to get the food order, and to give us our food. No one ever came to check on us during the rest of the visit. Unacceptable as we were literally the only customers dining in and they had staff.One of the workers went to the back and sat with his friends at table, and the other one behind the counter was on his phone the entire time. I had to raise my voice to get their attention if something was needed. I am not saying wait on me hand and foot, but atleast stop by the table once or twice to make sure nothing else was needed, especially when we are the only customers dining in the restaurant.Lastly the bathroom is in poor condition. No paper towels in the dispenser and the sink barely has any pressure for the water. There was barely water coming out to wash your hands.

I JUST got my Uber eats order from Honest Indian. I have ordered from here before and loved it. The food is still good, but I found TWO black hairs in my food!!! Nasty! I had to throw all of it away. So disappointing.

03.2022After traveling for 20 years and visited 500+ indian restaurants throughout USA i don’t know how I missed this Honest restaurant chain.May be I never paid attention and visited in any of there location. After visiting today I regret not knowing about them.I tried Veg Manchurian and Pav Bhaji and believe me it’s even better than some restaurants in India. So close to the authentic taste. One of the best I tried anywhere in USA.Menu is full of attractive dishes. I wish to spend a weekend nearby this place or one of there Branches to try more items from the menu.Dinner update :I tried Chinese Bhel and Aaloo Matar Sandwich. I asked to make them spicy. I just can’t appreciate the taste enough. I was carving for real indian taste and it was kike Jannat.

We're used to much more Americanized Indian restaurants, and we had to Google a bunch of stuff. ? Our server was super helpful, and suggested a dish we would probably enjoy (which we saw another two or three families order, LOL). We ordered the Manchurian (Gravy) and the Triple Szechuan Rice (our server's suggestion). Both were DELICIOUS, and the portions were huge - expect to be able to easily share a dish between two people! I also really love that the whole menu is vegetarian (or vegan on request) - it's not often I can find a place with really good, satisfying vegetarian options.Will be back for sure!!

We've got a number of excellent Indian restaurants in Nashville, but this place is my new favorite. The menu is large but not overwhelming, with a wide variety of options I haven't seen in other Indian restaurants, and so far everything I've had has been remarkably delicious. The place is always clean, the service is quick, and the staff is good about explaining the menu when I am unfamiliar with something (which is often - I'm still learning!) They can prepare most things to suit a Jain or vegan diet, too. Their mushroom masala is especially delicious, and their veg biryani is somewhat different from what I've had at other places, but in a very good way that I can't pin down lol.

We have tried food particularly Bhaji Paun many times from Honest in India. We were excited to try it out here in Nashville, US and see if they have maintained their original taste in US.We tried some Indo-Chinese food and Bhaji-paun and it was as delicious as ever. Our second experience was not as good as the first one. They didn’t have many items yet as mentioned in the menu. (This was some time back, so it may not be an issue now).They have to improve the service for sure. It is always felt that they are under-staffed. We always have to wait to catch their attention. The servers do not look at you or give eye to eye contact, because they know everyone is looking for them.Location wise, this is convenient as we usually visit here when we come to buy our Indian groceries. Overall great tasting food with poor service.

Absolutely delicious vegetarian/vegan food that's presented very nicely, even in to-go boxes! Please do yourself a favor and try the bahubali sandwich and the samosa chaat. :)

Easy going staff and great tasting food. Overall a good experience compared to other Honest restaurants I’ve been too. Keep up the good work.
