Thank you sir for the amazing chai! This is real Chai, not what you get at your local coffee station. I will be sharing with the Rockwood beach community! And we loved your Curries. First for my son and he loved the lamb. Support this business. They are salt of the Earth.

It’s a food truck. We ordered at the truck and just waited. The wait was maybe 10 minutes, not bad at all. The food was really good. Just and FYI, medium heat is pretty spicy. So I’m sure the hot is really hot! So be warned lol. We got chicken Marsala, nan bread and samosas. All were fantastic. I couldn’t stop eating until I was stuffed!

If you like Indian food then don't pass this place by just because it's a food truck because you will be disappointed for sure. The Pakoras were amazing and a killer deal at just 7 for a to go container filled to the top. The veggie wrap was enormous and turned out to be way more than I could eat in one sitting (not to mention it was also delicious ).

Amazing Indian food! Tasty lassis, both mango and sweet, with cardamom and rose water! Yum! My chicken tikka masala was lovely, I ordered mine mild and it was perfect! My husband had the jalfeze with lamb, and my oldest had the mutter paneer. All super tasty! We also had garlic naan, and vegetable pakora. Lots of outdoor seating!

We had been wanting to try this food truck for a while now, and finally got to on Sunday on our way through Rockaway Beach. Better than I had hoped! The samosas were great, as most fried things are.. but the saag paneer was soooooo yummy! Stop! Take time! Try them! Thank you, Taste of India!

We're locals and we come here once a week! So grateful to have delicious Indian food on the North Oregon Coast. The Channa Goa Curry is our favorite vegetarian option (like butter chicken with chickpeas instead), the samosas are crave-worthy, and the lamb is tender and delicious. After a walk on the beach, we can place our order, sit at the covered tables outside, and it's ready to go before we've finished a game of travel cribbage!
