" We had an average experience. The outdoor seating is lovely, and our server was friendly, but I felt like the food was hit-or-miss. The chick'n and noodles were good, but the samosas didn't match my expectations; they weren’t what I consider true samosas— more of a fusion version. One upside was the generous portions; we had plenty to share. Overall, I appreciated the creativity but missed the authenticity of traditional Indian cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an amazing time at Asha last week. My friends and I were seated quickly, and they provided a great selection of vegan options that piqued our interest. We ended up trying a few small plates to share, like the tandoori Brussels sprouts and lentil kofta; both were packed with flavor! One thing to note though: the small plates are quite filling, so sharing is a must! The environment was friendly and vibrant, and the decor made everything feel special. All in all, a nice evening out with friends. I’ll be back for sure. " (*Curated Review*)

" Took a friend out to check out Asha, and I was pleasantly surprised! Loved the kale salad and their innovative cocktails. The service was friendly, and the place was bustling, a sign they’re doing something right. I tried the Tandoori Brussels sprouts, which were full of flavor. The only downside was that my friend found their samosas a bit lacking in traditional taste. Overall, I think it’s an exciting addition to the vegan food scene in Portland! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Asha last weekend for brunch, and it did not disappoint! I ordered the soy curl tikka masala, and wow, the depth of flavor was astounding. Their drinks are also noteworthy. I tried a mocktail that was refreshing and perfectly balanced. The service was quick, and the staff was very accommodating to dietary needs. The buzzing weekend vibe was lively, making it a great spot for a gathering with friends. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more of their enticing menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I came to Asha on a whim, expecting something different, and I was pleasantly surprised! Each dish had a unique flair, which is refreshing for someone who's had traditional Indian cuisine for years. The jackfruit vindaloo stood out with its tender texture and exceptional flavor. The drink menu is also creative; I had an incredible tamarind lime beverage that perfectly complemented the meal. Service was attentive without being intrusive, and the ambiance felt cozy yet upscale. A fantastic experience all around! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m so glad I discovered Asha! The food is incredible, bursting with flavors and spices. My favorite was definitely the mango lassi; it was the perfect blend of sweetness and creaminess. The atmosphere has a lovely vibe, with beautiful decor that makes dining there extra special. Service was attentive and friendly, which made the experience even better. I can’t recommend this place enough for those seeking delicious vegan options! " (*Curated Review*)

" Really enjoyed my visit! The chef’s creativity shines in each dish. I had the thali plate, and each component was balanced and delicious. The highlight for me was the pakora, which was perfectly crispy and flavorful. The only downside was waiting a little longer for our meals, but the atmosphere made it worthwhile. Asha is an exceptional find, and I definitely recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)
