Food Junction — Restaurant in Seattle

I recently had the pleasure of dining at an food junction, and I must say, it was an extraordinary experience that left a lasting impression on my taste buds. This charming establishment, located in the heart of the Seattle downtown, captured the essence of India through its warm hospitality and delectable gastronomic wonders.

The moment I stepped inside, I was warmly greeted by the friendly staff, creating a welcoming and inviting atmosphere.

Now, let's talk about the food - the true star of the show! The menu showcased a wide variety of authentic Indian dishes, from aromatic biryanis to rich and flavorful vegetarian delicacies.

Each bite was bursting with a medley of flavors and spices, expertly balanced without overpowering the taste of the main ingredient.

The food junction offered a diverse range of options. I tried gol gappe, fish parkora and chaat.

To accompany my meal, I ordered a refreshing mango lassi, a traditional Indian yogurt-based drink. Its smooth, sweet, and tropical taste provided a delightful contrast to the bold flavors of the cuisine.

The service throughout the evening was exemplary. The staff was knowledgeable, able to guide me through the menu, and passionate about explaining the origins and cultural significance of each dish. Their attentive nature and promptness contributed to an overall enjoyable dining experience.

I highly recommend food junction to anyone craving an authentic and memorable culinary journey. The quality of the food, the ambiance, and the hospitality truly stand out. Whether you are an experienced lover of Indian cuisine or simply looking to explore new flavors, this restaurant is sure to satisfy your cravings and transport you to the vibrant...

We visited Food Junction on a Sunday afternoon and were surprised to find the place completely empty — which made sense after tasting the food. The quality has dropped significantly from when we last came here.

Previously, we had tried their Manchurian, bread pakoda and momos. Bread pakoda was actually pretty good (photo is from last time), Manchurian was decent , and momos were just OK (had pretty thick layer of dough). This time, however, the experience was far worse. The staff seemed quite disinterested and uninviting, which set the tone right from the start.

We ordered chole bhature — the chole was good, but the bhature were undercooked in spots and not fried evenly. We also ordered bread pakoda, it came completely drenched and soaked in oil. I understand it's deep fried, but well deep fried food shouldn't be drenched in oil. We returned it and switched to pani puri instead. Unfortunately, the pani puri water was bland and tasted off. Pani puri didn't come with tamarind chutney and they were charging extra for it, which felt petty. We ended up leaving most of the plate uneaten.

Sadly, this visit made it clear why the place was empty. Definitely not the same quality as before, and I won’t be visiting this...

these other reviewers honest to god look ai generated not by real people! the food was not very good, did not look very clean at all, and they didn't even bother staffing someone to work the counter, they had the same person taking the orders, cooking, AND bringing out the food. the person working of course don't seem very friendly because they were doing about 4 jobs! pretty bad business practice to my honest. they also had their forks and spoons out in the open where everyone can touch them and get there germs on them, kinda like a in buffet (which is still gross) would not go back. maybe I should've ordered something else but the rice was not good and if you can't keep your place staffed, clean, or make a good rice what are you doing. the ambiance was also pretty unwelcoming. you've been warned: go...
