Food is decent for fast food and since I have to be gluten free and I cannot eat a lot of things, I will not complain. The gentlemen behind the counter was nice and courteous. The atmosphere is not the best due to location and the homeless.

We love this place! My go to is the two items with double chicken Tikka masala and some garlic naan with a large mango lassi. I always say I am going to save half for later, then I eat it all. My son is vegetarian and usually orders the noodles or the veggie wrap with garlic naan. He has several other options which are clearly marked in green color on the menu. I have a friend that I recommended Masala Mischief to because she is Gluten Intolerant and they were able to easily tell her which options were safe for her to eat. I am always greeted and felt welcome, often by name. We highly recommend often and we are so glad that we found this place over a year ago. We do take out and dine in equally.
