" I visited The Guilt Trip Express late last week and was impressed by the unique take on Indian cuisine. The atmosphere was lively yet cozy, perfect for a night out. The butter chicken chaat was a standout dish with a great presentation. The service was attentive without being intrusive, which I appreciated. However, I did find the main course portions to be a bit lacking compared to similar price points at other Indian restaurants. " (*Curated Review*)

" The Guilt Trip Express offers a unique atmosphere with interesting food combinations. I was particularly impressed with their attention to detail in the decor and menu. The service was fantastic, but I do feel that the authenticity of some of the dishes was lacking — they were flavorful but not quite what I hoped for. Nevertheless, I had a great time and will likely return for another experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I went here expecting authentic Indian food, and while it was good, it wasn't as traditional as I hoped. The fusion aspect was interesting, but I missed the true flavors of Indian cooking. The service was quite slow too, which was disappointing. It's a nice spot to hang out with friends, but I may not return if I’m craving real Indian cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our family had an amazing time at The Guilt Trip Express! We ordered a variety of dishes to share, and everything was bursting with flavor. The staff was wonderful, especially our server who recommended the malpua for dessert – a must-try! That said, due to the higher prices, we expected larger servings. It felt like the dishes were designed more for sharing than as standalone meals. Overall, we had a great evening and will be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently hosted a gathering and decided to order catering from The Guilt Trip Express based on previous positive experiences. The food was wonderful and classy, impressing all my guests. The only downside was the delivery, which was slightly delayed. Nevertheless, the flavors were outstanding — especially the chole bhature, and the presentation was impeccable. I would definitely consider them for my next event! " (*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*)
