I am so picky with pav bhaji because no one can make it like my mom, however this place gave my mom a run for her money. The bhaji is so flavorful and rich and well spiced which I am so glad about because Indian restaurants in the Bay sometimes decrease the spice. The pavs were also so crispy at the bottom with rich butter crust and fluffy and glossy on top! Service was fast and you can see the pavs being grilled per service infront of you, and the bhaji made on the giant pan just and served just like they would in India. Inside the ambiance is pretty normal for a fast casual place. Will definitely come back!

The service was friendly, and I enjoyed the fresh organic cold-pressed orange juice. However, the pav bhaji didn't taste authentic, and the menu is quite limited, offering only pav bhaji and orange juice. I would suggest adding more variety, like samosas, chaat, and naan wraps. The ambiance was simple and modern.

Delicious but very expensive pav bhaji. A friend recommended this place when I mentioned I wanted to eat pav bhaji. I came here expecting a chaat place and was surprised to see that they only have one food item on the menu: pav bhaji. They also offer cold pressed juices, but that's literally the whole menu. My party of 3 came for dinner on Wednesday around 6 pm and it was empty. The space features a modern casual look, along with a lot of information about the origins of pav bhaji as well as a whole wall of inspirational sayings. We each ordered a pav bhaji ($12.99 for one serving) with two extra pav ($3.99 for each). The food came out very quickly, which is expected since the bhaji is ready made and just the pav needs to be toasted. Each order comes with a hefty portion of bhaji, two pav on the side, and some chopped raw onions plus lime slice. Each extra order of pav also comes with two pav. I was starving so I quickly dug in and it was absolutely amazing. They nailed the flavor of the bhaji perfectly, and luckily it wasn't too spicy even for a spice wimp like me. The pav was also perfectly light and toasty. For the amount of bhaji you get, one order of pav is definitely not enough. I'm glad we ordered an extra set. We killed the food in minutes. It was that good. I really enjoy pav bhaji, and I'd say this was one of the best I've ever had. No wonder they got so successful as a food truck and expanded into actual stores. My only complaint about this place is that it's so darn expensive. $13 for one portion of pav bhaji is a lot, and forking out for extra pav ain't cheap either.

I'm from Mumbai and I could say this best place to relish Pav Bhaji. You can ask for Spicy Pav Bhaji if you enjoy extra spice kick. Service is very fast and very friendly staff. Loved the ambiance. Only thing I would like to add is soda fountain.

This place literally sells one main dish, pav bhaji. If you're unfamiliar with pav bhaji, it's pretty much a curry with a side of bread. It sounds basic, but it's actually very good. I was a bit hesitant to try, but I'm so glad I did. Pav bhaji had lots of flavor, and the bread was warmed perfectly. Btw it comes with two pieces of bread and if you need more bread you can order extra. They also have cold pressed juices if you need some hydration. I do wish they had other items on the menu, but the name of their restaurant says it all, just pav bhaji. I definitely recommend coming by and trying pav bhaji if you never had it before :) Very quick service and plenty of seating.
