I came here based off reviews as I was visiting UGA, but to my surprise, this place is amazing! Definitely a hidden gem of Athens that lives up to all of its 5 star reviews. The food is halal and so delicious, I can’t help but want to make a trip to Athens just to buy more of this food! I got the chicken tikka bowl, but I will definitely be back to try some more if not all of their other options. (Food so good I cleaned my plate)

Curry meets Chipotle. Loved this joint for flavorful Indian fare. My 11-yr old polished off the tikka bowl and almost all my chips (supplied in plenty with my roll). Staff is so friendly and courteous. Strongly recommend for a quick bite when you are in Dawg-town.

First time customer — and will return! This place reminds me of Chipotle in terms of customizing your order in front of you, but the options are all South Asian. I always go for lamb curry, and this was pretty good — with a slight kick! I saw rose lassi and had to order it. Not many places have it! Service was kind and quick. Signed up for their rewards program. Free parking at Prince Market.

Fastest most affordable Indian food in Athens! This is a make everyone happy type of restaurant where you get to build your own bowl like at Chipotle, except with amazing Indian flavors and items. A chicken bowl, naan, and water cost $17. It is not the same quality as a sit-down Indian restaurant, but what I cannot imagine better quality from a fast buffet line like this. The cashier gave us an extra little bowl of butter sauce to dip the naan in, and the bowl curator allowed me to get half of two types of chicken when I couldn't decide. The staff was very accommodating and was happy to educate us on anything we did not recognize. They also offered fresh smoothies that I hope to try next time! The bowl was very filling. There was enough to save half for lunch tomorrow.

We had the pleasure of having Yossi’s Kitchen cater my daughter’s graduation party for nearly 100 guests, and I can confidently say it was one of the best decisions I made. I was initially stressed about planning such a large event, but the owner personally assured me that everything would go smoothly—and he was absolutely right. Every single guest raved about the food. The freshness and flavor were outstanding! We served Lilva Kachori, samosas, paneer sabji, dal tadka, naan, roti, jeera rice, and gulab jamun. Each dish was delicious, but the paneer was especially fresh and the dal tadka was packed with rich, comforting flavor. The chef prepared everything fresh, and it truly showed. And the gulab jamun—oh my goodness—was the perfect way to end the meal. It had just the right amount of sweetness and was incredibly soft and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. I would recommend Yossi’s Kitchen 1000% for catering or any kind of celebration. They also have a lovely space at their restaurant if you’re looking for a dine-in or small event option. I’m so glad we have this gem right here in Athens, and I’m already looking forward to ordering from them again!

I just had the tandoori chicken bowl and it was out of this world. Amazing patio, great atmosphere! This will definitely be a regular lunch spot for me.

Enjoyed coming here and would love to come back. The food was delicious! My only small change is perhaps the naan it was a bit tougher instead of fluffy, but it's me just being nitpicky. The staff was super friendly and there is parking out back. Worth a visit if you are craving Indian food.

First time trying this place out. Was very good and service was great. They helped me through the ordering process since I have limited knowledge on Indian cuisine. Located inside the prince market, I would definitely recommend trying this place out.

Samosa chat was delicious with a good portion size. Affordable prices. Ambiance is great, highly recommended if you want to try desi food in downtown Athens.

This is an amazing spot to stop by for a quick bite or spend a leisurely afternoon. It’s similar to chipotle in getting to build your own bowl or platter. The food is very high quality. We ordered paneer a paneer tikka platter, and paneer kathi roll. It’s amazing quality food for the price, and the portion sizes are great. I highly recommend stopping by if not just for the food, the amazing service they provide. This is a great spot for some Indian food walking distance from UGA campus.
