Café Nashta: Reviews & Ratings
We were driving through the town and were looking for a halal place to eat. Our children are generally very picky with Asian food but they absolutely loved the butter chicken . We ordered extra rice that the owner did not charge us for ! Loved the ambiance and the cleanliness of the place . The guy who served us was super nice ! Before coming in to eat I had called the restaurant to inquire about something and the guy who answered called me back few minutes later after he had confirmed the answer with the owner ! Would definitely recommend this place .
We found this AMAZING restaurant from other Google reviews while on a visit to the Rio Grande Valley. We went hoping to find Butter Chicken that compared to some that we had eaten in Austin. How surprised & happy that CAFE NASHTA offered us what we were looking for & SO MUCH MORE!! As you can see by their menu this couple is catering to the culture along with introducing the culture to their Indian cuisine. YOU REALLY NEED TO VISIT THEM YOURSELF & you will be singing their praises with the rest of us!! We had their lunch special which is very reasonably priced along with the garlic Naan. Our favorite was the Butter Chicken with the Garlic Naan. It's a flavor that you crave & want to go back again & again!!
The food was beyond my expectations, the service was great! I don't know if he's the owner or manager but he made my first time there so amazing by being such a people person, he offered me a 2nd bowl to try the spicier version, and then gave me dessert! The ambiance is such a vibe, I went @8pm and the little table lamps just make it seem fancier. I definitely recommend the place. I ordered the butter chicken, chicken tikka masala and the garlic naan. The chips and the sauces were complimentary.
Amazing palak paneer, 10/10 would recommend to anyone. And they have a vegetarian menu which was great. The service was great too, the restaurant looked clean. They give you spicy salsa while you wait for your food, which was a nice touch. Very close to the outlet mall.
Great food and great service. Very good and flavorful! Would recommend 10/10!! Come and eat gooood
Comfortable and pleasant environment with pleasant and prompt service. Good prices and generous portions. Very good food! All fresh and made on site. They try hard to please and take pride in their offerings. Go try it!
The Pakora appetizer was so flavorful and crispy, accompanied by two delicious dipping sauces. I got to the try the Beef Biryani and Butter Chicken. Both entrees were incredible especially when paired with the soft warm naan. The owner and chef which are husband and wife are so friendly and welcoming. They were both very informative about the menu and their culture.
As a review update I have to give this place 5 stars now!! Last time I came here the wait was long but it was definitely an off day. I'm so happy to come back and finally meet the super nice owner who warmly welcomed us and wanted to give us an amazing experience. The service was very fast and accommodating :) We ordered the beef nihari, butter chicken, chicken biryani, and naan. The complimentary chips and salsas/chutneys were given complimentary in the beginning and we loved how spicy some of them were. The owner gave us some extra dip as well! All the main dishes tasted authentic, as if they were made at home with love. I've been craving nihari for a long time and this one was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! It was creamy and hearty with the most tender pieces of boneless beef. The butter chicken was very flavorful and rich. The gravy was addicting to eat and that bowl was completely empty at the end of the night. The chicken biryani was great too! Each of the curries came with a bowl of white rice. I'll be coming back again and again and can't recommend this place enough for the best desi food in the valley!
Food was outstanding and the service was excellent. We had the butter chicken and biryani with naan. Will be back again to try more from here.
