Firangi Dhaba

This is (not that it's not wonderful) what the pod was missing, exceptional Indian food. I will update this when dining there, but, got some chicken tikka masala to-go, and while it's always good (other places), this is singular! Asked for spicy, and holy spicy, but packed with savory flavor that stood out and even with the heat. I can't say enough about it--was divine. The bread was also moist (it's just the word, for it, people, lol), flavorful, charred and garlicky. This is now our go-to, for sure.

Promising new addition to the NE Barley Pod / Baerlic Beer food carts on 60th and Halsey. Wide variety of offerings, friendly and efficient service. On this initial visit we tried three of the classics -- butter chicken, palak paneer, and chicken vindaloo, along with some garlic naan. Each dish was carefully made and quite tasty. The vindaloo had just the right amount of spice and was particularly impressive. So glad Firangi Dhaba is now in the neighborhood. We'll be sure to try more of their offerings. Strong recommend here.

It's tough to find great Indian food in East Portland - especially with samosa chaat and Kati rolls on the menu. Both of our main dishes (chicken tikka and chana saag) were fantastic and a little hot (if you don't sweat a little, is it legit?) Our only wish is that they were closer to us - we came all the way up from Happy Valley - and it was worth the trip. We will be back soon ...

This is a food truck at Baerlic Brewing's Barley Pod. Items are assembled fresh. Huge menu for a food truck. Got the aloo matter, which had a great depth of flavor, and the garlic naan, which was excellent. Can't wait to try other items on the menu.
