"This casual Foggy Bottom restaurant is a great lunch spot regardless of whether you need to get in and out in 20 minutes, or you want to drag out a two-hour lunch. You'll see lots of GW folks sharing masala popcorn and palak paneer curry under graffitied walls and hanging baskets reminiscent of an outdoor market, and people who really can’t break away from their desk buzz in and out of the takeout counter at the bar. We love the crunchy-on-the-outside, creamy-on-the-inside avocado golgappa, and the fully stuffed potato and pea punjabi samosas. But the juicy parsi fried chicken sandwich served with fries is what keeps us coming back. " - tristiana hinton
