I love Harry Singh's! It's affordable, fun, delicious veggie food (rotis are great) and attentive service. Downsides: be careful when selecting your "spiciness level." I picked one out of my range, and couldn't enjoy my meals with tears running down my cheeks. Also, it's a dry establishment, so I couldn't quench my thirst with a beer or chilled sauvignon blanc.
Love the music, love the bright colors, love the service, love the food. The mixed vegetable roti was fantastic - cabbage, carrots, green beans, potatoes, chick peas, red beans, tomatoes all spiced to perfection with extra hot sauce on the side in case you want to kick it up a notch. The vegetable patties are a great appetizer to share, too.
Harry Singh is the king of pepper sauce, and a master of delicious vegetarian cooking. This little Eat Street restaurant should be high on the list of any vegetarian, and if you dine with the carnivores please note that there are many delightful offerings for all!
Recommended? The curry chickpea and potato Roti is a personal favorite, as is the vegetarian non-curry plate. Conveniently located at Nicollet Ave and 27th St. Visit their website for a peek at their menu: http://www.harrysinghs.com
A truly spicy treat!
As of early July '04, they are "opening soon" at 26xx Nicollet according to a City Pages ad.
The food here is tasty and comes in large, well-priced portions. Service is friendly. The atmosphere is lacking and a bit depressing. Also, the menu heavily features meat; otherwise, I'd give it a higher rating. Considering Harry himself is of Indian origins, I was hoping he'd have more of a focus on vegetarian and vegan options.
