    Solid 3.5, but rounding up to 4 because it's better than average (and the cheese paratha bumped it up).  

    100% vegetarian and Indian food. The pictures on the menu do not necessarily match up with the entree it is next to.

    Ate palak paneer and butter paneer for dinner with side of parathas, and an extra cheese paratha. Palak paneer left much to be desired, was a little low on the flavor side. Butter paneer was much better, a little sweeter, and had a coconut flavor coming through. The plain parathas were thick and fluffy, great for sopping up sauces. The cheese paratha was really my star of the show- it was a kinda of Brie/cream cheese filling that was gooey on the inside. Somehow, it really brought extra flavor out in the entrees.

    We arrived at an opportune time, so we didn't wait, but we were the last to arrive before the rush. After us, there was a constant wait and solo customers were seated in any available space, even with other guests. This did not impact us. The staff did not rush any of the guests to turn over tables and accommodate the rush.

    The food seemed to be made upon request and the staff was constantly moving and serving.

    In sum, if you are a vegetarian, looking for relatively cheap and tasty Indian food, don't mind a divey/crowded atmosphere, definitely check this place out- it clearly gets a lot of hype.

    Authentic, inexpensive, though toned-down in spice.  100% vegetarian, if that matters for you.  Best for a weekday lunch.

    If I could give this place zero stars, I would. Please don't waste your time or money on this dump.

    Service: We made reservations for 5 people and when we arrived the lady that sat us down was extremely rude. She almost acted like we were a burden for being there. Later, when she was serving us, I made the mistake of saying I wanted an onion dosa. I quickly changed my order and said oops, I meant a cauliflower dosa. The server was so rude, she said "Are you sure this time?" When I said yes, she asked again "Yes? Sure?".

    Food: We ordered 3 types of Dosas, a chana puri, and a salt lassi. The masala dosa was decent but the other 2 were flavorless. The chana puri was undercooked! The puris were super doughy like they hadn't been fried enough. The salt lassi had no salt. It was basically yogurt with water.

    Ambience: The restaurant was tiny for the number of people they were hosting. We shared our table with random people and then we couldn't get out because the table configuration basically locked us in unless other patrons also got up to let us out. What a disaster!

    It is my first time in Paris, I was looking for an Indian restaurant and I am happy that I came to Krishna Bhavan. I ordered Idiyappam and Chapati, it came with multiple curries, it was very delicious, filling and not expensive at all. Highly recommend.

    Sambhar: Thick and full of inedible pieces of vegetables

    Dosa: Crispy when hot but turned chewy and rubbery in 2 minutes

    Masala tea: Taste was good but lots of particles that made the last few sips unsavory

    Service: Poor. I asked for the WiFi password after our meal in order to get directions to our lodging and was denied. They probably thought we were looking to lounge around after our meal because I was denied the password and given a BS excuse. The waiters all had a little bit of an attitude and made us feel unwelcome
