Kadhai Kitchen

Indian Restaurant $ 4.8 (184)


Kadhai Kitchen stands out for its authentic Maharashtrian cuisine, particularly praised for its Vada Pav and freshly made pav, which many reviewers say rival those found in India.

" The food at Kadhai Kitchen is top-notch! The Vada Pav blew me away – never had anything like it in the Bay! The pav was freshly baked, and everything tasted so authentic. I must admit, the place is quite small, but you can tell the owners are passionate about their food. The service was fast, and I left with a big smile. Will be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Kadhai Kitchen is my favorite spot for Indian street food now! The Vada Pav was spot-on in terms of authenticity. It's comforting and satisfying. The only downside is that the place can get cramped, especially during lunchtime. Still, the food is top-notch — I even took some to-go for later! Highly recommend their corn cutlets too!
