    “If you have never tried 'Namaste Indian & Nepalese Cuisine' in Honolulu - you should have no hesitation whatsoever about ordering from here - it's 12/10 delicious! I had it for the first time tonight - hands down one of the best meals I've ever had! Lamb Masala & the Rogan Josh lamb dish was phenomenal. Naan was freshly made. Meat was SO tender. You definitely can tell that the ingredients are high quality with health benefits & cooked with a lotta love. I regret not ordering more (especially the mango lassi mmm...) I honestly could eat from here everyday & not feel guilty. This is the type of food that will heal you from the inside out lol. Fresh - healthy REAL food - tons of amazing flavors - warms the soul! Just added to my Top 5 favorites on Oahu! Go order now!!”

    “Those who know Spice Up, KNOW… My significant other and I have Spice Up every week. Yup, we can’t stay away from it. Coming from foodies who eat out a lot, no restaurant has topped Spice Up. This is our favorite restaurant on Oahu and we always make it a point to come back for serotonin and a homey date night. We order butter chicken, garlic cheese naan, and try to get a new dish at almost every visit. Sure a butter chicken might make us basic, but it sure does the job. It’s fantastic every single time. Staff are so friendly. Spice up serves top quality food and is worth every penny.”

    “I stopped by Lasoon while visiting the Paradise Palms Café area at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa campus, and it turned out to be a great place to grab flavorful Indian food in a casual setting. Lasoon operates inside the Paradise Palms food court, which has a relaxed campus atmosphere with several different food vendors in one space. The environment feels very laid back, with students, faculty, and visitors stopping in for quick meals between classes or meetings. The menu focuses on Indian comfort dishes such as curries, rice plates, and other traditional items. The flavors are bold and aromatic, with spices that give the dishes depth without overwhelming heat. The sauces pair well with the rice and create a balanced, satisfying meal. One thing that stood out to me was how approachable the food is. The dishes maintain traditional Indian flavor profiles while still being easy for a wide range of diners to enjoy. Service was quick and efficient, which fits well with the food court style setup where most people are looking for a good meal without a long wait. Overall, Lasoon is a great option if you are on the UH Mānoa campus and want something flavorful and different from the typical quick-service options. It offers a solid introduction to Indian cuisine in a relaxed campus setting.”

    “Came back 3 nights later & brought my parents, niece & a friend - they all enjoyed the food, dad ate a lot! Glad they came so I got to eat more dishes from the menu (see receipt pic) - sorry, we were so busy talking & eating, I forgot to take more pic! We were all impressed with the food quality and authentic taste, See my review - Wow! Delicious & authentic, so glad you opened here! I've eaten Indian food in large Indian communities in Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, and Singapore, and your food was just as good as any really good spots in those cities! Flavors are not watered down, love how hot/fresh baked your garlic naan bread was & the shrimp curry had so much flavor, and at medium spicy, was more like medium-high, so I recommended customers try mild if they can't handle spicy :) Reasonable prices & good portion size. I'll bring mom next time, she wants to go after I told her about my dinner! Keep up the terrific & authentic cooking!”
