Lari Adda Food Truck

Cute Pakistani food truck in Bellevue. Great service and atmosphere. The fries and the jani burger were really delicious. 🔥✨ And I always enjoy a chai with a no sugar option! Tried the bihari wrap and didn't enjoy that as much. The meat in the bihari wrap was a bit mushy and the parota wasn't fully cooked.

We ordered bun kabab sandwich, fries, bihari kabab role. The test was AMAZING. Here's a few points: 1. On a busy sunny Friday evening, there was ONE guy doing everything in the food truck. There could have been a better arrangement. 2. The Truck reflected great taste of traditional art.

The most authentic Pakistani experience in all of Seattle. Lovely food and the vibes of the entire place match exactly what you would expect from a Pakistan-themed food truck. Each and every item on the menu is unique in its own way and amazing. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for an experience that would take them back to Pakistan through food!

I absolutely love this truck! I ordered Ek Dum Karak (chai with biscuit for dipping), A Bihari Affair (beef wrap) and the Fit Faat Samosa Chaat--all fresh, flavorful and delicious. Service was great and the truck is so STUNNING! Great food and lots of options

Amazing authentic Pakistani street food. Great portion size. All is halal. Love the vibe of a dhaba on a rainy night. Chai was the best I have ever had in USA

One of the best places I’ve eaten on Bellevue. Very good service, not so rich menu … not overly extensive. Food was very good quality all around. They know how to prepare home fries and their burgers and rolls are good. Prices were reasonable.

Delicious Pakistani food! Loved the truck art concept . Great tasting non-vegetarian food in Bellevue after a long time . Prices in my review shown includes taxes as that is my out of pocket cost. We tried samosa Chaat ($6) had only one samosa in it, but taste was good . Chai ($4) was NOT Kadak enough ,was more water per milk ratio, flavour was cardamom, came with indian biscotti called Rusk. They need to keep stevia alongside. Chicken seekh roll $12,came with curly fries dusted with Chaat masala, only one roll made with 2 rotis -(sorry but it's a lot of carbs), we threw one roti out & still felt chicken filling was not enough Per roti . Chicken boti roll - $12 also included curly fries , had 2 rotis rolled up , inside filling was not pieces but crushed kinda chicken with good flavour . For one person one roll is not enough when you remove the extra roti outside. Filling per roti ratio less. Their food is on pricier side as much as I want to but can't afford to come here more than once a while . For the food we ate we spent around $47 not including the tip we did. Knowing they are new in the market, I appreciate their hardwork, but , If they review their prices for the value of money I'd give more stars .

If you crave for the best Desi street food and casual dining, Lari Adda is the place for it. Amazing taste, excellent quality, and warm and friendly service. Their attention to details is outstanding. Once you eat there, it will become your favorite food stop.

Halal food truck located in a shopping plaza and there's a nice plastic covered area with tables that you can dine in as well. Parking is as bit weird we ended up parking at the shell gas station across the street. Everything was spicy, zesty, and tasty. We had the Zalmi Chapli burger and chicken roll. Took some time to get our food even though we were the only ones there. But I don't mind since that means it's made to order.

The Samosa chat was tasteless. It was neither spicy nor sweet tangy. The quantity was good. The food was freshly made. It is good that they have a tent. The guy at the truck was very polite. Good service. The food has fancy names; but subpar taste.

Despite the fact that this vivacious truck serves Pakistani street food, Seattle Met named Lari Adda one of the best Indian restaurants within the Seattle area, so I've had it high on my list of places to try. (Oftentimes, publishers loop Indian and Pakistani cuisine into the same category.) Before we get into the food, I must praise their fully covered seating area that houses five tables. Even in the rain and wind, you can enjoy your meal in a completely sheltered space! Any Washingtonian knows how important this is, especially during the wet months. Three of us arrived for lunch around noon and it was surprisingly quiet. No one else was by the truck nor at the neighboring Tikka Masala restaurant. One employee manned the truck, graciously welcomed us and we chatted with him briefly about the menu. He informed us of the most popular items and mentioned his favorite, "The Boti To My Roti" (chicken wrap). I was so close to ordering the "A Bihari Affair" (beef wrap), but when he said that was too spicy for him, that told me all I needed to hear. I wasn't going to take any chances, haha. Our order took about 20 minutes to prepare, which is pretty long considering we were the only customers. However, I had read about the wait times in other reviews and the one guy was cooking everything by himself, so I didn't mind hanging out for a bit. + BOTI TO MY ROTI ($12.95): Pieces of marinated chicken and slices of pickled onion rolled up in a roti flatbread. The chicken was lean and super tender, with a slight smoky flavor, and covered in what seemed to be a garlicky yogurt sauce with Indian spices. It had a mild spice and I liked the slight tartness from the onion. The roti was light and was a great vessel for the saucy filling. + CHIPAS ($5.95): This side of fries was deliciously seasoned and drizzled in a garlic mayo. They were hot and crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy inside. + EK DUM KARAK ($3.85): A piping hot cup of chai tea served with a biscuit. This was such a comforting drink on a cold day. The menu stated it's extra strong, which I didn't quite notice while drinking, but I did feel a little jittery later in the day. The biscuit was like a lighter and crispier version of a biscotti and nice to dip in the chai. Their menu also features various types of burgers and I hear they also serve a weekend brunch. My main qualm is just that the pricing is on the steeper side for their burgers and wraps, which are at least $12.95 each. All together, three of us got two rotis, one burger, one side of fries and two chai teas, totaling $53! My roti wrap was enough for me, but I think the average person would still be hungry after eating only that. Pakistani eateries are not abundant at all on the Eastside, so I'd still recommend giving Lari Adda a try if you're looking for something new and unique.

Amazing food, another food truck that I love. Ordered the Fit Faat Samosa Chaat with Tangy Sauce . It was tasty, not spicy and the samosa was fresh. Next one on the list was Jani Burger with juicy chicken pieces and a soft bun. Lastly, The Boti To My Roti.. Which was a soft chicken Kabab rolls with green chutney. The ordering process was quick on their website but it took a while for the order to be ready! Wait time ~ 30mins after placing the order.

Hubby been wanting to try this place out for the longest time, but I was "meh" about it. They got featured in King5 and had good reviews, so I finally gave it. Glad I did! Keep in mind this is street food -- meaning, no frills, just plain good food. Fit Faat Samosa Chaat, $6.95 - Lip-smacking and crispy potato samosa served in chickpea curry topped with tangy/spicy chutney. Delicious and I recommend trying this dish. However, don't expect crispy samosa. The chickpea curry topped with chutney made the samosa soggy. Still pretty tasty though! Kararay Chips, $5.95 - Masaly cury fries tossed in magical spices. Wow! Very flavorful curly fries. I highly recommend! A Bihari Affair, $10.95 - Soft, tender and spicy beef bihari roll paratha that packs a punch! Served with their signature green chutney. The chef asked us if we liked spicy food. We do, but "spicy food" can be subjective. When he noticed our hesitation, he said he can tone it down by lessening the chutney. What better way to determine their version of spicy, but to try it the way they would normally cook it! It is spicy, but it was tolerable for us. Very tender shredded beef. The Boti to My Roti, $10.95 - Juicy chicken botis (chunks) and onions rolled up in a wrap served with their signature green chutney and garlic mayo. I liked this better than the A Bihari Affair. Very flavorful and chicken was tender! Zalmi Chappli Burger, $10.95 - A classic beef chapli kebab burger served with their signature green chutney. Meat cooked well. Juicy and tender. Another flavorful dish! The portion size for each item seem small, but we split everything 3 ways and we were satisfied. Price seemed a bit much for what they are, but definitely worth trying. We'd come back again and even try the restaurant, Tikka Masala, next door. We think they're both ran by the same owners.

I fly to Seattle often and I have never had a chance to try this food truck until now! I live in LA but don't have many options for desi food with a variety of items like this so I was on a mission to try this place! I'm glad I finally did because it did not disappoint. I went with some family so we could share various items. They have a bit of seating outside and more seating in a covered tent. There is a small parking lot and we were able to get parking because we went during the day. We ended up getting the fit faat samosa chaat which was as amazing as its name! It had the right amount of samosas and cholay with delicious chutney! Then we got three rolls which included a Bihari affair, the boti to my roti, and seekh kabobs- not attention! My favorite was the boti to my roti because it wasn't overly spicy and it was super flavorful! The Bihari affair is a bit on the spicy side so if you love spice, this is for you! It was still very tasty! To finish off our meal we had ek dum karak chai that came with a cake rusk with zeera. It was all very delicious and I can't wait to try this place out again next time I'm in town!

I was looking for something interesting to have for a Friday evening and was looking for foodtrucks on the eastside and decided to come here for its unique Pakistani cuisine. We ended up going for the below items: 1. Bihari Affair - rating 4/5- Spicy version of minced beef frankie which has good spice and nice collection of herbs and masalas. 2. Boti to my roti - rating 4/5 - Medium spiced version of chicken frankie. It was decent but lacked some of the dressing which left some of the chicken dry. I would suggest getting more of the dressing for when you order this. 3. Samosa Chaat - rating 3/5 - This was an average samosa chaat. Peculiar part about it was that it wasn't too sweet as most indian places serve it which made it a good change. 4. Kararay chips - rating 3/5 - This was very very average. It had some spices different than regular ones but not something extra-ordinary. 5. Paan - rating 4/5 - It was decent but was pricy for the quantity! 6. Gajar Halwa - rating 4/5 - This was tasty. Overall, a place I would recommend for the frankies.

The atmosphere was lively, with good Pakistani music playing, and the seating in the tent was ample and comfortable. The cleanliness of the establishment was great, creating a pleasant dining environment. The order took quite a long time to prepare, likely due to the limited number of staff members working. However, despite the wait, the food was fresh and flavorful, which was a definite plus. I couldn't decide what to order but landed on ordering the Bihari roll, which was good but left me feeling heavy and full. While it was satisfying, it didn't quite meet my expectations in terms of taste. I also ordered the karai fries I which were delicious and served in a generous portion size. Definitely a great place and I'll be back. I'm interested in trying their chicken roll for lunch or dinner, as well as their halwa puri for breakfast.

Great place for Pakistani brunch! Love their halwa puri, Bihari rolls, and the cherry on top is that they have rooh afza go!

I absolutely adore this place! The modest-looking truck has planted itself near a shopping center and gas station. And though it is a food truck, there are plenty of seats inside of a decorated tent with cute atmosphere. My order was taken by a very patient and attentive staff named Azhar. I wasn't familiar with the menu and he took the time to thoughtfully explain and answer all of my questions. I particularly enjoyed the flavorful samosa chaat (dinner menu) and the smooth halwa chanay (brunch menu). The savory samosa was crispy, paired perfectly with the sweet and vibrant chaat. The deep-fried pooris and fluffy naans were flawless; in fact, every item tasted fresh and authentic. It's also worth trying out their dessert menu and chai tea which comes with a full biscuit! My mom loved it too and I very much look forward to my next visit:)

The chinese restaurant that never had any business but somehow stuck around forever. That joint. Its now an Indian restaurant... and right beside it in the same lot is this pakistani food truck. Two businesses in a lot the size of a gas station is perfect for providing ample seating and parking. There is also an enclosed gazebo that could probably seat 20. I dropped by to try some grilled kebabs but it was too early in the day. Early weekends they serve a brunch menu. I will have to come back for dinner sometime soon. This time I opted for their tawa fried minced beef with naan. Very spicy and delicious with good amounts of green chili and ginger. Not too overpowering in flavor either. Yogurt sauce was fresh. Ordered an extra naan to finish the beef cuz they give you enough for two ppl to sit and snack! Finished off with a delicious chai tea and biscuit. I recommend this place.

Absolute sh*t show. DON'T GET FOOD HERE ! We ordered "Bihari Affair" roll & "Mast Mahol Burger". The beef in the roll was burnt and tasted burnt and full of salt. (Pics attached). The burger patty was burnt. (Pics attached). Special shout out to the sh*t show of a chef there - looked like he was working there without wages.

Disappointing visit after the hype I believed in. Half the items we wanted to order off the in person menu were not being served: the fries had run out, a new Korean fried chicken burger was not yet launched, Kabul express not available that day and a drink too. The food also took a really long time to be prepared. Overall we were disappointed because we lost 2 hrs for over marketed, underwhelming experience. Food was not bad but nothing I'd lose 2 hrs of a prime weekend evening over :-(

This review is solely for the Karak Chai and the Samosa Chaat. YES and YES. I absolutely loved how the Karak Chai came with a side of tea rusk. So thoughtful and such a treat! The Samosa Chaat had the perfect kick and I was SO glad it wasn't overpowered with a ton of yogurt. I cannot wait to come back here to try more items. Seating is plentiful and the service was kind and efficient.

Food is pretty bad. We ordered vegetarian burgers and chicken burger. Chicken burger was burnt and looked black and only flavor it has was char. Vegetarian burger had so much tamarind sauce and that was the only flavor it had that it should be renamed as tamarind burger instead. Burgers were inedible. Chai and samosa chaat was mediocre. Would never visit again and wouldn't recommend.

I would skip. Bad service and low quality food. Also, hard to find parking and the seating area is very average.

Hopeless food today. The standard has dropped drastically. We were a group of 6 people and come for a Ramadan feast- it came out to be poor! The Iftar box was not even close to what the picture showed. No dahi balla and no roll Kabab. No Pakora. It had sandwiches instead! One Billoo Kabab was so odd that my nephew refused to eat it. The tent was not lit up (had to ask for it when it got dark) and no heating. The Thaa soda was replaced by Pakola- not acceptable! What is going on?

I absolutely love this truck! I ordered Ek Dum Karak (chai with biscuit for dipping), A Bihari Affair (beef wrap) and the Fit Faat Samosa Chaat--all fresh, flavorful and delicious. Service was great and the truck is so STUNNING! Great food and lots of options

Ordered delivery. Got the chicken and the beef roll, plus the fries. Doordash didn't give an option to specify level of spice and this was SPICY. I like very spicy food, I can eat 5 star phad thai anytime though tend to prefer 3-4, at India Gate I have ordered 15 star, but usually go with a 5. I had no problem eating these rolls but the spice level detracted from the food rather than helping it and I am sure 90% of people would be unable to eat it. The food itself was okay, nothing great, nothing terrible. The fries were seasoned like curly fries (they weren't curly), which was surprising as there was no mention of this and I much prefer regular fries. Overall I won't be ordering again nor going there. That said this was my first time order either of these items from anywhere so perhaps they are a good version of them and just not my thing--I'd probably try them elsewhere in the future but wouldn't seek them out. If I knew I liked them in general (and I generally believe I would) then I would have rated lower as they just weren't very good but I can't be sure so just trying to be as objective as possible and give a fair review.

I just tried the shahi tukda as it is not readily available everywhere. It was horrible, some toasted pieces of bread dunked in milk.

Thank you MLS Sounders for having lari Adda at the game tonight. Food was super spicy and awesome.

If you crave for the best Desi street food and casual dining, Lari Adda is the place for it. Amazing taste, excellent quality, and warm and friendly service. Their attention to details is outstanding. Once you eat there, it will become your favorite food stop.

They charged us more than they deserve, food was not fresh at all, Naan(bread) they served with chaana was frozen, not fresh. Chaana , alu chaana was not freshly cooked.It was expensive for the quality of food that we had received.

Ordered the Kabul wrap, spicy sausage and fries in there sauce and wrapped. The sausage/ meat was pretty spicy. The chutney and fries helped mellow the whole thing out. Very very delicious. Parking is tight and food was a bit smaller than expected for the price but very good. For those who want to try a bit of food that is not super common in the area this is a terrific find.

Decent food, extremely slow service. Waited 45 minutes for a simple order. Made the mistake of ordering an extra poori and had to wait another 30 minutes. Peeked inside to find that it was ready and sitting right there on the side for a while.

Food is okay. The wait is atrocious. I can understand that there is only one person, but they need to communicate how long it is going to take for them to prepare the food. We prepaid while ordering, and now were stuck for over an hour where each order took upwards of 15 mins. It wasn't as if there were many orders. It was just the chef being too slow. And they weren't even apologetic about the wait. Would have repeated to try their non-brunch menu, given I love Pakistani cuisine, but unfortunately, they lost us as a patron.

The food has gone downhill. It is very very spicy and the taste is lacking. For the tawa keema dish I asked if the naan was fresh and not a pita bread and I was told yes it is fresh. The naan was a frozen one the you get in a grocery store. This is deal breaker. The naan was anything but fresh. Even a fresh pita bread would have been better. Just give a fresh baguette if you can't have fresh naan. Baguettes go well with keema. For the halwa puri the puris are flat like a chapati and soggy. Why do they have to roll up the puri when dining there ? It takes away 99% of the fun of a puri. The puris were not even fluffy. It was like a fried soggy roti. I remember going here last year summer. But now the quality has become so bad that I'd rather make the food myself and it will still be better.

Nice ambience but mediocre food. The puri and naan are literally frozen Deep or similar brand which are used. I'd save the money and whip up some potatoes at home and buy puris from the store. One thing in the menu is like $20!

Expensive and small portions but the general taste was okayish and the owner was nice. What we ordered: 1. Zalmi Chappli Burger- good amount of spice, very small for it being $10, not sure why the menu says it comes with fries because that's not included 2. The Boti to My Roti Rolls- wasn't actually boti since it was shredded chicken, they were basically just that shredded chicken, onions, white sauce and a hint of green chutney in 2 rotis. The chicken was cooked well but it wasn't anything special 3. A Bihari Affair Roll- tasty but not spectacular, good spice level 4. Samosa Chaat- reasonable, one of the better items. Good samosa quality, channa was fine, not too spicy but tasty enough 5. Shahi Tukrey- the biggest disappointment. Basically a few pieces of fried bread dunked in some oddly stringy milk (see the picture). But the pistachios in it were good. Also, they forgot to give this to us and we had to come back to get it. 6. Karary chips- ordered this as a side ($3 extra) with one of the boti rolls. For the price they gave barely any fries (see the picture) 7. Jalapeno margarita- this was $1 extra in addition to the $3 extra for the fries, this was one of the better items, not a margarita (no alcohol) but it has a good amount of sweetness and a good kick Our overall total was $61 which is really pricey considering the small portions. The taste was generally fine but nothing special. I was hoping it would be similiar to Zareen's (in Palo Alto, CA) but it was a disappointment. The owner was nice and chatty but she did forget our shahi tukrey and another customer's karary chips so we had to drive back to get it. Overall, it was okay but I don't think we need to come back.

You Must try it. Taste was great. Service was very friendly. Ambiance was great. Tea is always great.

Delicious food! Highly recommend for yummy desi treats. I love how gorgeous this food truck is. The prices could be a bit lower given this is a food truck and not a dine in restuarant but the food is delicious. I had the chicken boti roll which essentially melts in your mouth. We also tried the samosa chaat which was yummy as well. Hubby had the veg burger which wasn't that great.

Best Pakistani street food in Washington plus they have covered, heated, seating. At this point I've tried everything on the menu and it's all been absolutely delicious. My favorites are the Kashmiri chai with Samosa Chaat, and the Halwa puri brunch.

Awesome, delicious, and authentic Pakistani street food. Highly recommend the tea (chai), samosa chaat, bun kabab, and chapli kabab. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

Had a really bad experience today when i took my family for iftar today. Soggy stale cold food, messed up orders

Best Pakistani food around hands down. The Bihari kabab roll is my ultimate favorite. Be warned, this food is hot and spicy but very well balanced and flavorful. Don't miss out! I hope they open a restaurant soon!! #nomnomnom

We got the chicken burger and chicken boti wrap. Both had the same filling but tasted fresh and rich.

The food is excellent and very authentic. Great place for puri halwa but also try everything else which is very good. Highly recommend.

Had high hopes for this place. The food tasted decent but later that night I got extremely sick from it. I contacted the restaurant and didn't get a reassuring response. Will not be back.

Really enjoyed having a brunch at Lari Adda. Halwa puri, omlette, qeema, cholay, and parathas. Highly recommend trying it out!

Had the beef roll and fries - never tried Pakistani street food but was delicious - nice and spicy roll. The desi spiced fries are some of the best fries I've had anywhere. Pink chai with pistachios sprinkled on top perfect for waiting on a cold night.

Over priced, food does not taste good and rude service. I'll skip this spot, a lot of other desi spots to try

We had roll, chicken burger, chaat. Nothing tasted as great as the reviews. Not much flavor. Disappointing.

We came across this food truck during our travel through Washington and I am so happy we did! From their attention to detail of authentic Pakistani street food to their decor and service- everything was on point. Their masala fries are the perfect combination of spices and crispiness. Their meat both chicken and beef were fresh with the perfect amount of spices and sauces to give it the succulent tastes you only find in Pakistani cuisine. Great food and taste! We had a pleasant chat with the owner as well who was friendly, extremely knowledgeable regarding the cuisine, and had great customer service skills! We will be visiting again for sure! we were so impressed, we were happy to learn more; Fun fact - Bill Gates visited this food truck and a burger is named after him which is on the menu! They also did a collaboration with Disney's Miss Marvel! And another accolade is that they were cited in the Seattle post as an up and coming fast food establishment!

Went on a Sunday - only brunch menu was available. Ordered Breakfast at Burns Road and the Tawa Fry. Food was flavorful, a bit on the slightly oily side but overall tasty. Bread is probably best eaten there rather than taken home. Not cheap, but prices are fair. Expect to wait about 20-25 min for food. Parking a bit difficult as there is a small lot shared with another restaurant. There is an outdoor tent adjacent to the truck if you would like to stay and eat. Would come back on a weekday when they have the full menu

Authentic Pakistani food! Bihari roll was a bit on the spicy side (as it should be) served in an actual paratha. Chipas were nice and crispy. Lastly, a big thumps up for the kulfi!

Simply outstanding. Family operating the truck - super friendly. The chicken kebab roll, sonatas, fries, bread pudding - all delicious! I will be back!

Small menu but great Pakistani street food. Tried the Jani burger (chicken sloppy Joe -Pakistani style) and lari adda soda. Both were great! Definitely worth to go and get a quick bite!

Such a great menu and the Bihari roll was as authentic as it gets. Reminded me of Pakistan which is the highest order of compliment I can think of. So glad to have found this food truck in Bellevue! Can't wait to be back to try the other stuff!

I was very disappointed with their proportions. The taste is not extraordinary or anything. I gave this place three tries before I decided that I will never visit it again. 1/ First time, I tried their chai with appetizers. French fries were really cold and the serving size was very small. 2/ Second time, I thought I should give their brunch a shot. I did not like their brunch at all! Channas were cold and tasted a bit sweet (which is uncharacteristic of Lahori channas). 3/ I thought I should give this place one more try and I went there for their gajjar ka halwa and kashmiri chaye. They charge ~$5 for "gajar ka halwa" and it was literally 3-4 teaspoons. Kashmiri chaye was pathetic and nothing close to authentic chaye. I am from Lahore and I was really excited to try this place given the name and their menu. I have decided to never visit this place again. Guys, please bring up your game with quantity, warm food, and taste! I so want to support Pakistani businesses but I can't keep on wasting money. I gave 2 stars because these folks are really hard working and they have setup the place nicely. Feels home but need to improve a lot!
