Good!! The husband and I both loved it. Don't be fooled by the modest interior, this place is worth the dining experience! Can't wait to go back and sample their lunch buffet.

I really enjoyed chai and samose at Kastoori Grill! Highly recommend stopping by for a break in a busy day. They also have all carte and thali options!

Always happy with the service at kastoori. We come here only for the c-momos as I am nepali. We did try some of the steamed and fired momos but they aren't as good. I wish they had better chutney for those momos. Will be coming back as always for the c-momos!

The food is great esp the goat curry. The meat was perfectly cooked and nice chunky pieces of meat. Garlic naan were amazing too. The chicken momos are a must try. The service and the staff was very very nice and so well spoken. The interior is little shady and very very old. This places needs a serious renovation. But if you don't care about the looks and more about the food, it's great. The presentation is good too. They lit candle under to keep the food hot.

Food was good. Especially Tandoori chicken and Naan was my favorite. Service was also very quick. Restaurant owner(chef) was very friendly. This restaurant is going to be my go to place for food.

Let me start by saying this place is hot. Like an oven hot. No AC and no windows to open. It is small so all the heat from the kitchen is trapped inside the restaurant. We changed our plans from dine in to take out and ate in the car.As far as the food, it was hot and freshly made. The naan was ok, a little dry and it didn't come with any dipping sauces... not sure if that is normal of if I have just been spoiled as all the Indian places I have eaten at give you small portions of different sauces to dip the naan in. The chicken tikka masala had good flavor and they were generous with the amount of chicken given. The rice was cooked well. However, there was a maggot in the Gulab Jamen. So gross.

when you r maxed out on seafood at Pikes market, Kastoori is an amazing Palate cleanser w authentic heat added to ur dish per request.My wife and I enjoyed what we believe to be the best Biryani we have had in the United States of America!the butter chicken was no slouch but man their Biryani with level 3/5 spice was perfection!!The staffs very friendly and we were tempted to pick up another plate to take back home to Cali. Keep it up!!

I agree that this is probably a 3.5 star spot but since they've had some poor reviews, I'll give them a 4 because the food is fairly good and the service was reliable. We came in around 1:45 pm for a late lunch. This used to be a buffet spot but I'm guessing Covid changed that. I think I preferred it as a buffet because you could try the different menu items and get a nice blend of spice.I ordered the aloo govi (cauliflower and potato) and my husband got the vegetable korma. We ordered the paneer naan, at our server's suggestion. I love spicy so I ordered it a 4/5 spicy. However, the server advised against that warning it would be too hot, so I got a 3/5. I wish I'd ordered a 4, as it was pretty mild. The spice was a little one-note and didn't have the complexity I've come to expect of this dish. I did try my husband's food and his was great. Very flavorful and rich, I was dipping the naan in there probably more than he would've liked.The paneer naan was not enjoyable, I imagined it being cheesy but instead it was flat, crispy and with fleks of paneer throughout.We got the free dessert with check in. I noticed one of the reviewers claimed there was a maggot in hers, which startled me. But I now know she misidentified one of the spice pods as a maggot. It is NOT that. If you pressed it open, it has a sweet rose smell that you get in the dish. So don't worry on that front. Prices were a little high for quality but really not terrible,. If you're craving Indian and you're near Pike Place, don't hesitate to stop here.

This was my first time dining in at this place within Pike Place Market for early dinner last night. First glance when I came inside with my friend it looked very elegant and inviting.The waitress was hospitable in helping us get seated with great service and my friend and I ordered Vegetable Pakoras, 2 Kastoori Grill Specials of the Chicken Tikka with cream sauce and basmati rice which we added the garlic Naan since it didn't come with it and we were so satisfied with it in our bellies.Definitely will come back again next time to try other meals off the menu. Until then

A non-fancy down home restaurant. I ordered a delicious saffron and cream curry with basmati rice and hot fresh long naan, and a Nepali beer to top it off. So good!
