I enjoyed Bollywood Theater! I personally love south Indian food so maybe I'm partial. The food took a while to get out and the sides for the thali were a bit bland. I assumed that they would add a bit of spice but I think you might need to request it. I would go back for the kathi roll

So typically this isn't a type of restaurant I would like. I definitely prefer Indian restaurants that are closer to home food rather than the Indo American fusion food, but this one surprised me a lot! We got the paneer tikka bowl which was very delicious. We got a paneer makhani thali meal as well. The bhel puri was good, and we got the pav bhaji which was also good. I think the tikka bowl and thali were the best most value for money dishes. The decor was really something that got me. It was very nostalgic, we got to walk through the Indian store area which is rather expensive compared to most regular Indian stores. The service was however a little slow. For this kind of food, I typically prefer sit down meals as these involve walking a lot to get food but that's just a personal preference. Go here if you're in the PDX area.

Really good Indian street food! We tried several of the dishes here to see if the hype was real and most of the dishes were very delicious! The service was decent and the ambiance was very cool as well. See the breakdown per dish below: 5/5 - Grilled Paneer Bowl: marinated paneer skewered and grilled, served with rice, sambar, chole, raita, green curry, and garnished with spiced nuts. This was by far the most flavorful and amazing dish, especially if you're getting a little bit of all the ingredients in every bite. 10/10, would recommend! 4.5/5 - Kati Roll: marinated paneer or chicken, egg, onion and green chutney, rolled in a paratha. Very good flavors, a little heavy on the green chutney, but definitely the best appetizer. 4/5 - Paneer Thali Meal: a good taste of everything, a little pricey (~$25), but good if you want to sample a lot of the sides, but only want to try one item. 3.5/5 - Vada Pav: kind of like a spiced patato slider. Decent taste, but nothing super unique about it, not a bad appetizer, on the smaller side. 2/5 - Paneer Makhani Plate: house made paneer in a rich tomato cream and cashew curry, served with spiced rice. Sadly there was nothing spicy or even flavorful about this dish, shocking compared to the rest of the food. Not well made, this is a very popular dish at most Indian restaurants. Food: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Value: 3/5 Overall: 4/5
