"Delicious chaats in a warehouse. The food was delicious and the service speedy and polite. For a vegetarian feast for two, I would recommend the samosa chole, sev puri and a masala dosa (dosa only available on the weekend). It will be too much food, but it is worth it. You'll get several tastes and textures, including these tiny, delicious fried noodle things. The desserts look great, too. There are some meat options, too, but I can't vouch for them.
I would give this place five stars but for two small issues. First, the idli taste like armpits. Their texture is also sort of off, but it's the smell/taste that did me in. Also, make sure you NEVER sit in the tables close to the line to order, lest you be accosted by a legion of annoying people who ask you a zillion questions about your food and never apologize for interrupting your meal, let alone say thank you. I understand that this is a foreign cuisine to most and initially we were happy to share, but seriously suckers, you can say thanks. This is in no way the proprietor's (Vik's?) fault, but I issue it as a word of warning. Vik's is definitely great and you should go, just watch where you sit."
