The 25 Best Restaurants In Houston - Houston - The Infatuation
"Whether you grab a seat at this counter-service spot or get your meal to go, you’re eating the best South Indian food in Houston. Shri Balaji Bhavan specializes in chaats, and every single one we’ve ordered is somehow better than the last. Like the samosa chaat, a large fried dumpling smothered in so many different spicy and tangy sauces you can barely see it. Try the pav bhaji, a simple tray of spicy vegetable mash with buttered, soft buns to dredge until the tray looks wiped clean. While Shri Balaji Bhavan may resemble most spots up and down this strip of Hillcroft, the expertly spiced food sets it apart." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
