Lots of vegan options! I liked the Aloo Gobi and the Pomegranate Margarita. It looked like they had a good happy hour from 4-7pm on weekdays. Service was nice and we did not feel rushed, but need to note that the restaurant was very noisy.

Love Nasha, anytime you're craving Indian cuisine I highly recommend checking out this spot. I love their tikka masala, garlic naan, recently I used lamb in place of chicken in my tikka masala and it was amazing! I also love how cozy their restaurant is. It's a very fun atmosphere.

I've always been curious about what Indian TexMex fusion would work and Nasha nailed it. We started with the tikka queso, the flavors were incredible. It was very creamy and almost the texture of vegan queso, but good nonetheless. I wanted to try the "fusion" food but I got sucked into a favorite food, chicken tikka masala. I like spicy food but the server made me a little nervous by saying spicy is- well spicy. So I went with medium heat- next time I will ask for just spicy. the flavor was great but I would have loved a bit more heat. The garlic naan was incredible. My partner got a chicken biryani and said it was better than others he's had at other joints. The inside is small and cozy but they take advantage of the space well. If cedar wasn't trying to take us all out, I would have opted to sit outside. The space looks great out there. Will definitely be back, I saw about 30 other item on the menu that I need to try.

Vibe- Very nice restaurant with plenty of seating inside and outside under a nice patio like space. Customer service- Great! Food/drinks- Tofu vegan taco plate (I wish the tofu had more seasoning but it was alright) + Momma's Summa Lemonade Parking- There's a few spaces in the lot and some street parking near by

I can't believe how this place went under my radar for so long! They blended Mexican & Indian food so well here. When I walked in I wasn't really sure what I was expecting to be honest but I was blown away by how nice the entire staff was and how delicious the food is. The Tikka Nacho's with cheese honestly blew my mind. They added this delicious Tikka sauce on top and the side that, with the cheese, came together perfectly. They also included some guacamole which was very good with the nachos as well. Next time I plan on the getting them chicken. The chicken Tikka Enchilada was wild, I can't believe they made enchiladas with a sweet tikka sauce. The first bite had me totally hooked wanting more. The sauce was sweet, the chicken cooked perfect and tender. It was very amazing. They had music playing which was very nice and all the staff were so attentive to us and making sure they answered our questions and were close by to help with everything. I'm mad I didn't find Nasha sooner but now that I have I'll make sure this is going to be a recurring restaurant I visit. An absolutely deserved 5/5 stars!!

My second visit here this weekend. This place has unique fusion food and a great atmosphere. We shared onion pakora (Sliced onions battered fried with chickpea flour & spices). This is like onion rings on steroids, it comes with a delicious mint chutney. The chutney and onions were so flavorful. I had the chicken chili relleno with Tina masala sauce again because it is that good. It is served with basmati rice and guacamole. My friend ordered curry at the medium heat level and said she would go for the hottest level next time. I highly recommend this Austin gem!

Love this hidden gem. I don't know about y'all but we got tired of going to places in Austin and having to wait to eat. We went on a Friday dinner, past 6 pm. The place was not empty, there were tables occupied. But we got seated right away. The ordering was all done thru an app. There were 3 of us in the group. You can open a tab and invite your group. Very convenient! The service is quite prompt too. I had the cardamom margarita and lamb Chile relleno with masala sauce. My companions had the tikka masala and carne asada. We all shared the chips (which are actually papadums) and chutney, and samosa. All were yum! As I am writing this a few days later, I already want to go back. :) We will be back for sure!

First of all, love that there is parking here! Second of all, I also really love this idea of "Indian Tex Mex" although we only really ate from the curry section of the menu, this being our first time here. That being said, the curries were so so yummy and flavorful (and run a bit hot, I wish there was an option in between mild and medium for my ideal spice level). The curries themselves don't come with any meats or proteins and it can honestly get a little pricey. I also would have appreciated the dish coming with some more rice. I do want to come back to try some of the fusion dishes though!
