Nasha

Love Nasha, anytime you're craving Indian cuisine I highly recommend checking out this spot. I love their tikka masala, garlic naan, recently I used lamb in place of chicken in my tikka masala and it was amazing! I also love how cozy their restaurant is. It's a very fun atmosphere.

Nasha is a fantastic spot for delicious Indian food with plenty of vegan options, which was perfect since I went with a vegan friend. I also appreciated that they have parking, which can be hard to find in Austin!We started with the samosas and onion pakoras as appetizers--crispy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. For our main dishes, we shared the chana masala and aloo gobi. The chana masala, made with tender chickpeas in a rich, spiced tomato-based gravy, was bursting with flavor and perfectly balanced. The aloo gobi, featuring potatoes and cauliflower cooked in aromatic spices, was comforting and satisfying. Both dishes were beautifully prepared and paired well together.While they also have Tex-Mex options, we stuck to Indian this time, but it's a great excuse to go back and explore their fusion menu. The ambiance was cozy and cute, and the service was friendly and attentive. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

Nasha is a hidden gem offering a creative Tex-Mex twist served Indian-style, and it completely lived up to our expectations! With a warm and inviting vibe, it's the perfect place for a late-night meal, staying open until 11 PM. After landing in Austin late in the evening, our craving for Indian flavors brought us here, and we couldn't have made a better choice. The experience started with a thoughtful touch--they served papad (roasted chips) accompanied by salsa and green sauce. This appetizer sets the perfect tone for the meal. While the papad is flavorful, it can be a bit spicy for some, so starting with a small piece is a good idea to gauge your tolerance. Our host, Jorge, was exceptional--attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure everything was to our liking. For the main course, we ordered from the curries section, which comes with basmati rice. We tried: - Paneer Shahi Korma: A rich and creamy curry with a subtle sweetness that made it luxurious yet comforting. - Paneer Tikka Masala: Classic and flavorful, with perfectly cooked paneer and a tomato-based gravy that hit all the right notes. For one of the orders, we substituted white rice with brown rice, a welcome option for those looking for something lighter. We also added a couple of garlic naans, which were soft, buttery, and complemented the curries beautifully. They took our spice level preferences into account and nailed it, delivering dishes that were perfectly balanced and flavorful. The food was exceptional--fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and expertly cooked curries. The texture of the paneer was impeccable--soft, fresh, and delicious. From the roasted papad starter to the main courses, everything was delightful. Nasha delivers an excellent dining experience with a unique Indian-Tex-Mex flair. It's a must-visit spot in Austin for Indian food lovers. Highly recommended, and we're already looking forward to returning!

Lots of vegan options! I liked the Aloo Gobi and the Pomegranate Margarita. It looked like they had a good happy hour from 4-7pm on weekdays. Service was nice and we did not feel rushed, but need to note that the restaurant was very noisy.

I've always been curious about what Indian TexMex fusion would work and Nasha nailed it. We started with the tikka queso, the flavors were incredible. It was very creamy and almost the texture of vegan queso, but good nonetheless. I wanted to try the "fusion" food but I got sucked into a favorite food, chicken tikka masala. I like spicy food but the server made me a little nervous by saying spicy is- well spicy. So I went with medium heat- next time I will ask for just spicy. the flavor was great but I would have loved a bit more heat. The garlic naan was incredible. My partner got a chicken biryani and said it was better than others he's had at other joints. The inside is small and cozy but they take advantage of the space well. If cedar wasn't trying to take us all out, I would have opted to sit outside. The space looks great out there. Will definitely be back, I saw about 30 other item on the menu that I need to try.

Vibe- Very nice restaurant with plenty of seating inside and outside under a nice patio like space. Customer service- Great! Food/drinks- Tofu vegan taco plate (I wish the tofu had more seasoning but it was alright) + Momma's Summa Lemonade Parking- There's a few spaces in the lot and some street parking near by

I can't believe how this place went under my radar for so long! They blended Mexican & Indian food so well here.When I walked in I wasn't really sure what I was expecting to be honest but I was blown away by how nice the entire staff was and how delicious the food is.The Tikka Nacho's with cheese honestly blew my mind. They added this delicious Tikka sauce on top and the side that, with the cheese, came together perfectly. They also included some guacamole which was very good with the nachos as well. Next time I plan on the getting them chicken. The chicken Tikka Enchilada was wild, I can't believe they made enchiladas with a sweet tikka sauce. The first bite had me totally hooked wanting more. The sauce was sweet, the chicken cooked perfect and tender. It was very amazing. They had music playing which was very nice and all the staff were so attentive to us and making sure they answered our questions and were close by to help with everything. I'm mad I didn't find Nasha sooner but now that I have I'll make sure this is going to be a recurring restaurant I visit. An absolutely deserved 5/5 stars!!

I had high hopes for this place but it was nothing special. Pros: * interesting decor * parking available *outdoor seating* green chutney served with pakora was amazing! Cons: * I got the lamb thali. While the lamb was tender, only 3 pieces were given. Chana masala had no spice, cabbage slaw had no purpose, onion pakoras were cold, halwa dessert was clumped and cold. Naan was very doughy, reminded me of thick roti. I try not to leave food behind but i just couldn't finish it. The lack of spice killed my appetite.

I love love fusion but this is anything but fusion! Disguised as fusion please meet Nasha, a hodgepodge of flavorless mess!First of service, what service! The team is NOT helpful and nor kind! The lady that serves us definitely hates her job!Being a desi, when placing order I asked for chilies as we like spicy food, and she said no we can't give you chilies! I noticed my margarita had fresh jalapeño so I ask the food runner for chilies or anything spicy and thank god he asked the bartender who then taught the server she can charge for chilies and bring it for us! The server didn't even bring my sister hot water as requested, and when we told her she forgot and the meal had ended, she shrugged and said oh well we get busy! So pathetic service! Hodgepodge food came fast but service was third class Now food: except for the steak taco, nothing else was edible! There is so much you can do with nachos and make it fusion with oomph but this had nothing! It was tasteless! And carne asada too! I mean nothing had fusion originality except the taco which definitely was edible the drink was good! So 2 stars for those two items! Everything else sucked!Place is cute! I liked the outdoor seating factor and the decorAmple parking Overall this place has so much potential but the service combined with the hodgepodge food made it a point of no return! The server was truly clueless

Love this hidden gem. I don't know about y'all but we got tired of going to places in Austin and having to wait to eat. We went on a Friday dinner, past 6 pm. The place was not empty, there were tables occupied. But we got seated right away. The ordering was all done thru an app. There were 3 of us in the group. You can open a tab and invite your group. Very convenient! The service is quite prompt too. I had the cardamom margarita and lamb Chile relleno with masala sauce. My companions had the tikka masala and carne asada. We all shared the chips (which are actually papadums) and chutney, and samosa. All were yum! As I am writing this a few days later, I already want to go back. :) We will be back for sure!
