" The Guilt Trip Express was a delightful experience! I loved the vibrant atmosphere and the blend of traditional Indian flavors with a modern twist. We ordered a variety of dishes, and each one was delicious. The vada pav was exceptional, and the cocktails were innovative. Although the portions were a bit smaller than expected for the price, the flavor made it worthwhile. Our server was attentive and made great recommendations. I would definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm big on spicy food, and I really enjoyed the offerings at The Guilt Trip Express! The samosas had a nice kick, and their specially crafted drinks complemented the meal beautifully. However, one issue I faced was the inconsistency in portion sizes. Some dishes felt a bit overpriced for the amount you received. Still, overall, the flavor and ambiance make it a place I would recommend to food enthusiasts. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely evening at The Guilt Trip Express! The vibe was perfect for a dinner with friends. The food showcased creativity — my favorite was the pani puri which had a twist. The service was warm and inviting. While I appreciated the flavors, the portion sizes felt a bit small for sharing. I’d recommend it for a casual outing or special occasion. Worth a try! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited The Guilt Trip Express again, and though I missed the old location, I appreciate their creativity. The menu has interesting dishes but lacks the deeper flavors of authentic Indian cuisine. The service was friendly and accommodating. My only issue was that the portions seemed a bit small for the price. I'd recommend it for a casual night out but not for an authentic experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" The Guilt Trip Express is a great place for a special occasion with family or friends. The menu had lots of creative dishes but I found some lack the punch of authentic spices. The service was good but a bit slow during peak hours. I hope they can work on the portion sizes as they felt a little small for the higher price point. I would still recommend for anyone wanting to try a contemporary twist on Indian dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you’re looking for a modern take on Indian food, The Guilt Trip Express is your spot! I loved the ambiance; it felt lively and inviting. The tamarind margarita was a unique drink to try, and the menu had a lot of interesting options. I did feel that the food was slightly overpriced for the size of the portions, but the flavors were memorable. An experience worth trying! " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I had a fun night out at The Guilt Trip Express! They serve a mix of traditional and contemporary Indian dishes that were both tasty and innovative. The restaurant was quite busy but the staff handled it well, and we didn’t feel neglected. I particularly loved the lamb sliders, but again found that each dish could use a larger portion. Overall, an enjoyable experience! " (*Curated Review*)
