I've been coming to Bindaas for years. I'm sad that they are only have the downtown location left (I'm not a huge fan of the fast casual version). I really like everything on the menu and both in service dining and take out is solid. The Kathi rolls and shrimp bezule are musts (however the shrimp portion has shrunk to half in the several years I've been going). The curry options and naan are great. I've had so many good fish specials here. The star of the show are their small bites you can't get at other places. I do wish they had some South Indian offerings, but they excel at their choices. They also have good drinks and friendly service.

The Food was amazing, great ambiance and good vibes here! Must try the Paneer, Sweet Potato Kofta with the Tika Masala Sauce! We got to meet Chef Ajay, very sweet and grounded! It really is Bindaas! We can't wait to come back!

Bindaas was incredible! My friend and I had lunch here and loved every sip and bite. Their Mango Pani Puris and Avocado Golgappa were flavorful perfection, as was their Paneer Tikka Lababdar and Lamb Goli Kebabs over rice. We also ordered dessert: rose falooda + sticky pudding cake. Divinity! Highly recommending!

Bindaas Indian Street Food in Foggy Bottom was a surprise find for us as we usually dine at traditional Indian restaurants. Bindaas' options were a lovely refresher to the traditional heavier dishes we were accustomed to. Great modern bistro ambiance so a nice alternative to traditional Indian establishments as well. The street food portions were smaller, allowing us to try a greater variety of dishes. We had the Bhel Puri, Palak Paneer, Parda (Chicken) Biriyani, Chooza (Chicken) Kebab, Paneer Tika and a variety of Naans. The flavors were fresh and vibrant and did not disappoint. It was cool to observe the bustle of the open kitchen as our orders were created. Service was quick and attentive and it was obvious that there were regulars as the staff greeted many with a familiar welcome. Highly recommended.

This is a cute, cozy spot inside the food hall; great for lighter bites and cocktails. Hits: - Chai tini: loved. Tasted like adrak wali chai in cocktail form. So smooth. - Money to burn: Hubby says "Delicious" - Bhel puri: HIT. crisp, spicy, sour, sweet textures and flavors all perfect. Please note that this is spicy so if you can't handle "Indian spicy" you might want to skip it. - Chicken peri peri : a hit! Hubby really liked the crunch factor and appreciated the flavor both in the chicken and the dipping sauce. - service: it was a busy evening but our server didn't rush us at all, which we appreciated. Misses: - Lamb Kathi roll: same as paneer, didn't like the egg but enjoyed the lamb immensely. The big miss here isn't the flavor but the fact that the roll just couldn't hold itself together as a roll. Definitely needed a bigger roti to wrap those fillings in. - Paneer Kathi roll: essentially a miss because of the same issues as the lamb Kathi roll. Flavors are on point, texture is more paneer bhurji which I actually liked. Just wish it held together the way it should. We'd certainly come back when in the area to try other items on the menu.

First, I genuinely LOVE Indian food so this Monday night surprise date made my night! No reservations needed, we walked in through Western Market and they immediately seated us. Friendly staff, quick service, hospitality was on point. Appetizers: Chicken curry puffs: buttery soft crust with a scrumptious filling. They pair it with seasoned fries and let's just say that this simple meal is filling and delicious. Avocado Golgappa: I'm torn between which of these starters were my favorite because both were phenomenal! This crunchy airy crust was the perfect compliment to the filling inside. I can't describe all of the flavors too well but the variation of textures made the dish memorable. Main dish: Chicken Tikka Masala: THIS WAS EXCELLENT! The serving can be shared with someone else but you'd likely want to keep your order because it's just that good and perfectly seasoned. Garlic cilantro naan: let's just say that I ordered some to go! This naan melted in my mouth and added to the existing flavor party. I had a crisp cider and my boyfriend had their creamy mango lassi-which he loved! Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my experience and I'll be back!

My favorite part was the food! Those delicious and rich yet subtle flavors were amazing. Everything was well presented and simply flavorful. The service was okay, our server was a bit too chatty but we could tell she just wanted to do her best. The food wait is on the longer side, not as quick as we would have liked. Our naans came after the food was already out, which didn't make sense. Definitely a spot to go back to and try more dishes!
