Kashmiri chai - 8/10 - Creamiest kashmiri chai ive tried but didnt have enough chai flavor as I would like.Caramel macchiato w/ mocha drizzle - 7/10 - Very caramely and sweet but didnt taste much like coffee, more like sweet milk. Shawarma jalapeño melt - 7.5/10 - Fresh, tasty, and cheesy but not sure how i felt about the chicken.The new location for Filli is definitely aesthetic and a vibe but the food and drinks were decent for the price

Okay so - this is a pretty solid spot. The ambiance/setup is great, the service is exceptional and food isn't bad either. I would give the food solid 3/3.5 stars out of 5. We ordered their club sandwich and alfredo foodles. It didn't taste bad and was very fresh! I guess for me it was just missing that oof factor. Would I have it again though? If I'm in the area, absolutely! Why the 4 stars then? THE CHAI. Go to Filli for their Kadak Chai and everything else is just a bonus. I LOVED their chai and if not for anything else, I would definitely come back for their chai!!

Son wanted a chicken sandwich but even the kid's version he thought was spicy. Place seem cute but I'm not sure bout the food. No kids drink includes. Got kids meal with a drink ends about $12. It's basically 1 chicken strip inside a bun and a small fry. I'll get him McDonald's like he asked next time. You get more food and cheaper

I have been waiting for FiLLi Cafe at Westcroft Center to open for a while. I just drove by few weeks ago and saw the lights were on. So, I came to check it out. I love the open view concept. It looks like a fish bowl from outside at night. The interior was very relaxing and inviting. So far, I have tried Foodles, Burger, Hot Chai, Fries, Pouched Chai and Paratha. According to the website, FiLLi Cafe is an Indian restaurant chain originally from Dubai and it's famous for its saffron tea. They have restaurants extended to UK, India, Canada, North Africa, and US in total of 48 other countries. This one on Hillcroft is the second one in Houston besides Sugarland being the first. In few months, the third one will open in Westheimer area. Food was freshly prepared and employees were friendly. The service was beyond my expectation, considering it just opened sometime this month. There are plenty of parking at Westcroft Center. I would bring some friends to FiLLi Cafe Hillcroft to enjoy the Chai with Zafron.

My partner and I have decided we want to slowly try all of the vegetarian friendly spots in the Hillcroft area. We saw this new cafe opening their doors; we looked at the menu in advance and we knew where our first stop in our newly planned Hillcroft tour would be.This is definitely designed as a cafe, with plenty of spacious seating, set up in a casual manner, with numerous seats in a row near the window. I already know that I will be returning here to work and study in this unique cafe with true masala cha, and unique Indian inspired sweets and treats.That being said, we came here with the hope of enjoying the food and were slightly disappointed to find the food fairly average. I LOVE when there are vegetarian slider options, unfortunately the chutney spread on the Aloo Tiki Sliders was lacking, and when we asked the staff for more, they were puzzled by the request and were unable to offer more chutney to improve the sauce to aloo ratio. The fries were average, though crispy. The jalapeno popper chaat we ordered was really unique, but not as impressive as we hoped it would be.There is not much in the way of service, but that is not unexpected for a cafe.This is a cafe, so you expect to pay for drinks, but we were also surprised to learn you have to pay for tap water too unfortunately.

Cute shop and great place for date night. Good junk food but not fast food so it costs a little more. Everything tasted delicious.

HillCroft location: maybe this place is known for their shakes. The shakes were good. One of these is the Cookie Monster which is tasty. I got a "mojito" thought it was going to be a traditional mojito just without the alcohol. Well DO NOT BOTHER ORDERING THIS. ITS JUST 7up IN A CUP WITH A LIME AND MINT LEAVES. I paid for overpriced sprite/7up in a cup! The owner or manager whom I complimented on the restaurant to when I walked in does not know how to take constructive criticism but did literally ask for an honest opinion. When I gave her this honest opinion nicely she did not take it well and told me she's worked at a bar and this is how it's made LOL ....she could've taken it into consideration to perfect the recipe but instead decided to come over to me and attack me with this and I'm here writing this review because you were UNPROFESSIONAL. All you had to do was keep quiet. It is because of you that I am on YELP writing a review because I only write a review if i had a really bad experience or a really good experience. Great job
