I loved the food that I ordered. I got the okra fries, the paneer tikka roll, and chai. My husband and his friend each got the Malai chicken tikka roll. We got takeout because I had to drop the guys off at the airport and then hit the road for a 7 hour drive.The sandwich was good, but the okra fries were incredible! They are sliced paper thin and are not greasy at all, and they have just the right amount of chaat masala on them. The chai was the best chai I have ever had. The guys really liked their chicken sandwiches, too. Unfortunately, I don't live in Asheville, so I don't know when I can come back again. If I did live in Asheville, I would be coming here regularly.Vegetarian options: The vegan and vegetarian dishes are clearly labeled.

The Botiwalla in Asheville NC is a Great place to discover that you love food from India. You can go Spicy or Mild. It is fresh and Delicious. You can also purchase Spicewalla Spices there and prepare your own India inspired recipes. Open your mind and open your mouth for an Explosion of Flavor. I Highly Recommend Botiwalla by Chai Pani.
Service was great and the staff were extremely friendly, but the food was just ok. The paneer was very tough and flavorless and costs more than both options of chicken for some reason. My paneer bowl was too spicy for me that I couldn’t finish it while my partners paneer tikka roll was very mild.

This spot is amazing. We were visiting from Charleston. Our frame of reference was a local swanky spot called Ma’am Saab, this was like an expedited more family friendly version of this. Very fast even when at max capacity

Food and drinks are amazing!! Fun atmosphere! Will be back.
I enjoyed a chicken, rice, and veggie bowl that was fresh, flavorful, and reasonably priced! Now I have a new fave place in West Asheville to return to soon. ?

Botiwalla was absolutely delicious. The chicken tikka roll wrapped in naan more than hit the spot. The chicken was so tender and tasty and the wrap was so buttery and perfectly cooked. The smashed potato app was definitely something to try and the sauce with it was paired perfectly. The cauliflower app was very good but a bit more fried than I expected! It’s a order at the counter and sit down so if you need something you need to catch someone once you get your food. It’s very busy but we found a table right away!

I'm biased cause I have family who work for this rest group, but this place is amazing. Sooo happy I can now get my okra fries fix without going downtown. The desi salad is fabulous, too.
