2009 READER'S CHOICE AWARD: Best Meal Under $15
Earnestness pours forth from this taqueria-turned-modern-Indian-restaurant in the Castro, where lawyer-turned-mother-turned-chef Ananika Khanna prepares home-style Indian food. Order at the counter, then grab a table—the big windows afford good views of the neighborhood hustle and bustle.
Eats:What's on your menu.: <p>The focus of the limited menu here is on the kati roll—like an Indian version of a burrito. House-made roti bread is wrapped around your choice of six fillings (from grass-fed-lamb curry and chicken tikka to wok-fried paneer cheese with peppers and onions), dolloped with fresh chutneys (we like the cilantro-coconut version) and accompanied by raita—the result is a handheld triumph with bright, fresh, homemade flavor. Thali plates (like a deconstructed version of a kati roll) are also available, and include all of the above ingredients sided with fragrant basmati rice and lentil dal, presented on the traditional segmented stainless-steel platter.</p>
