Honest Restaurant

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Indian Food – Especially the Gujarati Dishes! We recently visited this restaurant, and honestly, the food was way better than we expected! If you love Indian food, especially Gujarati items, this place is a total gem. Everything we tried was just full of flavor and tasted super fresh. We ordered quite a few things — dabeli, vada pav, chaas, gobi manchurian (dry), pav bhaji, kadhi khichdi, samosa, dosa, and uttapam — and literally everything was spot on. The dabeli and vada pav tasted just like the ones you get on the streets of Gujarat, and the chaas was the perfect refreshing drink to go with the meal. The pav bhaji was buttery and flavorful, and the kadhi khichdi gave that perfect homely comfort food vibe. Even the South Indian dishes like dosa and uttapam were crisp and delicious. The staff was polite and quick with service, and the atmosphere felt nice and welcoming — perfect for a casual meal with friends or family. Overall, we had a really great experience here. Highly recommend this place if you’re craving authentic Indian flavors and want to try some amazing Gujarati specialties. We’ll definitely be coming back again soon!

We dine at Honest Restaurant every time we visit Orlando, and it never disappoints. The restaurant is exceptionally clean and well-maintained, creating a pleasant dining atmosphere. The menu offers a wide variety of delicious vegetarian dishes, all prepared with fresh ingredients and authentic flavors. There’s always plenty of parking available, which makes the experience even more convenient. The owner is friendly and welcoming, adding a personal touch that makes each visit memorable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality vegetarian cuisine in Orlando.

I heard about a delicious Indian restaurant and boy were they right! Ordered the Cheese Pulav and it hit the spot with medium spice! Super delicious and tasteful! Staff was friendly and attentive. Will definitely come back!

🌟 Honest Restaurant – Pure Veg Delight After an Epic Day! After a long and adventure-packed day at Epic Universe, we wrapped up our evening at Honest Restaurant, a pure vegetarian spot that truly hit the mark. 🚗 Parking & Setup Parking was a breeze—plenty of space and no restrictions. The ambiance might not dazzle you at first glance, but the place is clean, well-maintained, and offers ample seating. It’s a self-service setup: order at the counter, find your table, and grab your own plates and utensils if needed. 🍽️ Food Experience Skipping appetizers due to major hunger pangs, we dived straight into the mains. We began with Puri Channa—ordered two plates, loved it so much we went back for a third. Each plate came generously served with: • 2 Puris and Channa • Fresh salad (tomato, cucumber & onion) • Lemon wedge and pickle • A sweet treat: Gulab Jamun The inclusion of salad with Puri Channa was a refreshing surprise—something you don’t often see elsewhere! We also tried the Dry Gobi Manchurian, which was crispy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The spice levels were well balanced, and the texture was just right. 🍨 Extras & Options Though we were stuffed after just two dishes, we couldn’t resist going for dessert—ice cream, of course! The restaurant also offers sweet paan for those who enjoy traditional after-meal indulgences. 🧺 Bonus Offerings Honest has a wide menu of snacks and full meals, plus a family pack option priced at around $100, ideal for feeding 20–30 people—great for gatherings or group orders. ✅ Final Thoughts This place delivers on taste and quantity. Every bite was thoroughly enjoyable, and I’d absolutely recommend Honest Restaurant to anyone—especially to pure vegetarians seeking variety and flavor. Not a high-end ambiance, but the food makes up for it in spades.

Great place to have some amazing Indian food. We went there for lunch on a Saturday. Luckily it wasn't crowded. We ordered Masala Pav with Bhaji, Bhakhri Pizza, Chana Puri and Ganga-Jamuna juice. Loved everything except that Puri in Chana Puri was very greasy. Won't go for that next time. Masala Pav was super spicy - must try if you like spicy food. Bhakhri Pizza was fine - more of a nostalgia order. There's limited free parking in front of the restaurant but more spots behind the place in the plaza. Staff was nice and friendly.

As soon as I landed here in USA - this was my very first place to visit and we ordered some Indian food. This is a franchisee of a very popular food chain of India and major Indian delicacies are available here. We ordered pavbhaji and dosa… they were good in taste and quantity was also very sufficient… sambhar was watery … place was hygienic and clean… must recommend for every Indian in USA who wants proper Indian food

Orlando really needed an Indian Fast Food restaurant. Honest is originally based out of Ahmedabad, India and now they have opened up many locations in the US. Glad they came to Orlando! It's located in a prime area in Patel Brothers plaza near Florida Mall. Ambience is simple with some food photographs on the walls, nothing fancy. Place looked clean. Everyone was wearing masks. Customer service was good and the food service was super fast. We went on a weekday evening...that could be the reason. Currently they have limited items on the menu. And they plan to start Indo Chinese and South Indian dishes pretty soon. We ordered Paav Bhaji, Masala Paav, Veg Grilled Sandwich, Bhakri Pizza and Papdi Chaat. Except the papdi chaat, I liked all other dishes. The Veg Grilled Sandwich with Amul Cheese reminded me of Club Sandwich I used to eat back in India. And the masala paav was the highlight for me. Will definitely go back when they start serving full menu and see if they can get that one star .

We chose this place after a long time…compared to b4 it has got better Schwann noodles -tastes awesome huge chilli flakes is off setting Bhel- good Samosa chat -good

We recently did a takeout dinner from Honest in Orlando, FL and had a great experience overall. While picking up the food, we had a cup of their tea. It was a bit thicker than we expected, probably because of the generous amount of creamer, not typically how we’d make it at home. For the meal, we ordered the Vegetable Cheese Masala Grill Sandwich. It was really good and reminded us of the grilled cheese sandwiches you’d find in India—comforting and flavorful. We also tried the Vegetable Chili Garlic Noodles, which were very authentic and tasty, even after sitting for a couple of hours. Having tried other Honest locations before, we can say their food is consistently good and very reasonably priced. We would definitely order from them again!

I visited this place with my family. Self-serve dine in. Found if a bit pricy. Ordered dry veggie manchurian, pav bhaji, hakka noodles, and masala dosa. Manchurian balls were great, however, i would liked it more with slight thick coating of sauces. Loved the pav bhaji. Dosa was good in taste. Sambhar and chutney could be better.

The food's taste was acceptable. The pav bhaji and pizza were particularly enjoyable, but the paneer chili dry was not up to par. The dabeli lacked flavor, and the Chinese bhel was just average. The customer service was excellent. Overall, the Indian food was good, but there is room for improvement.

**Food:** We tried the Bhakri Pizza, Bahubali Sandwich, and Dabeli. The Bhakri Pizza had a lot of potential, though the bhakri was a bit overcooked this time—I'd love to try it again when it's perfectly done! The Dabeli had a nice flavor with the potatoes, onions, and dabeli masala, but I was hoping for the full traditional experience with the tangy chutneys, crispy sev, and fresh onion toppings that make it so special. It was also a touch sweeter than the classic version I remember. Since I came here looking to reconnect with those nostalgic flavors from back home, it would be wonderful to see an authentic Dabeli on the menu—I think it would be a real crowd-pleaser! **Service:** The place was bustling with customers, which is always a great sign! The staff did a commendable job managing the rush—they took our order promptly and served our food efficiently. We were happy to help ourselves with the rest given how busy they were keeping things running smoothly. **Ambiance:** The space is comfortable and functional—clean and with decent seating. It serves its purpose well for a casual meal. **Overall thoughts:** There's definitely promise here! With a few tweaks to bring out more authentic flavors and ensure consistency in the cooking, this place could really shine. I'm rooting for them and would love to visit again to see how things evolve!

Tried, Pav bhaji, dev puri, fried rice and Hakka noodles. Except the Pav bhaji all other dishes were below the Honest standards. I have tried Honest restaurants in other cities. Fried rice tasted like fried pulav and other dishes were just okay.

Bahubali sandwich was very sweet to our liking. Chat papdi and pau bhaji was good, falooda was okay. Chinese bhel and rice was disappointment. I had eaten at honest in NJ and absolutely looked it. Not sure why Orlando one was mediocre

Honestly the second we enter, the vibes were terrible. First of all, there was no welcome and the guy at the front didn’t even look up at us after a minute. We were told to take our own menues. The food finally came out and just from the looks of it, we could tell it was warmed up food from those frozen packages and definitely not hand made or fresh. The noodles and bhaji were alright but other than that, eveything tasted artificial. Even the water was across the restaurant and we ourselves had to go and get it. This honestly didn’t not seem as if we were in a restaurant as even in the modern day and age, the whole restaurant utilized plastic utensils and plates along with styrofoam. When we told him we wanted a different dish Because the one we we received wasn’t up to our expectations at all, he looked at us as if we know what to do next. He was hesitant but eventually gave us different dish but still took three extra dollars Becuase of the switch. I would rate the service but it’s hard to when there wasn’t any to rate. if you’re looking for a self serve restaurant that gives mediocre left over and packaged food, then this is the place.

Service was terrible. No welcoming at all. For the food, the food was not good. It was like they put it in the microwave to warm it up and they serve it. The food was served in disposable containers.And you need to get up on your own for water in a separate area. Definitely not recommend based on my experience. 👎👎🙅
