Indigenous Eats — Restaurant in Spokane

The burger was extremely unique, it was frybread as a burger bun, with the burger meat. But I won't lie i didn't like it. Its not easy to eat because of the frybread bun, and it just doesn't taste good.

I also don't like the store name, its very racist. Imagine if there was a store called "white people eats" youd look at it like "why? That's just weird" you can serve indiginous food without making the whole place about that, indian food isn't called "Indian Eats" its called like "Kerpresh' Rice and stuff" making a race the store name is just... Racist. :(

Sorry it was fun to give the place a try, but i dont think ill eat here again. It was also very expensive. I will say i did really appreciate the uniqueness of the burger, as a burger lover, i also like to see people bring new takes on it. And for a place with largely native american made food recipes, i actually genuinely find that appealing, it just sucks that the execution is so poor. Maybe it could work with more specialized buns?

Edit: V to the response, you miss the point. Your restaurant name is effectively a racial classification, the same as if your name was "Indian Eats" (indian is not a race, it's an ethnicity.) imagine if the name was "African American Eats" and you had a bunch of cultural AA food. Wouldnt you see how people would look at that as racist? It's the same here. Its too on the nose. Even with a name like "European Eats" that's still really really on the nose. Idk man maybe its just me but i think...

🌟 First Visit to Indigenous Eats – A Flavorful Experience! 🌟

Located in a food court-style setting, I wasn’t quite sure what to order at first. Luckily, the staff were super friendly and happy to offer recommendations.

I ended up trying the Hunter - Ground Bison and the Three Sisters Soup.

🥙 HUNTER - GROUND BISON Absolutely delicious! The seasoned ground bison had a bold, savory flavor thanks to their house-blended sage-forward seasoning. It was generously topped with shredded lettuce, tomato, onion, black beans, cheese, and pickled jalapeños, all tied together with tangy tomatillo salsa and a drizzle of sour cream. The base was a freshly fried bread—crispy on the outside, soft on the inside—that reminded me of an Indian taco. So satisfying!

🥣 THREE SISTERS SOUP This comforting soup features corn, beans, and squash—the traditional “three sisters” crops grown by many Indigenous tribes. The flavors were earthy and naturally sweet, making it both nourishing and culturally meaningful. A perfect complement to the bison dish.

💬 Overall, a great experience! The setting is casual, but the food is full of heart and heritage. I really appreciated the chance to try Indigenous-inspired cuisine in such an approachable way. Can’t wait to come back and explore more...

Two (sticky) thumbs up.

Shout out to the local news stations for featuring this local gem. I'd been wanting to try the fry bread, and was glad I had the chance.

We happened to be downtown from N Idaho, visiting some shops. We had the Handhelds: a Powwow burger and a Chicken Dance Sandwich.

I appreciated the amount of lettuce, tomato, and thickly diced onions, but recommend a fork to pick up the bits that fall off with the relish. I opted for fries, but next time, may splurge and get the huckleberry fry bread. I now know to make relish with my own summer pickings, not just...
