Verdict: Our expert take on INDNON
Food (9.1 out of 10)
mentioned by 100% of the guests
When it comes to the food, this place truly shines with an excellent score of 9.1 and an outstanding 99.2% customer satisfaction! Based on 129 positive remarks, diners consistently rave about the unique flavors and high quality. Signature items like the chicken tikka croissant, delicious chai, and creative Indian-inspired dishes are frequently praised for their taste and authenticity.
However, out of 130 comments, there was just one minor point of contention. A single diner felt their latte wasn't up to par, describing it as tasting like drip coffee with added milk. This seems to be an isolated incident, given the overwhelmingly positive feedback on all other food and drink items.

- chaibest chai in Seattle hands down
- samosa croissantThe samosa croissant is unique and rich in flavor
- FoodIndian snacks we had at this new place
- flavorsThe chef really knows how to combine and build flavors

The atmosphere and service were both rated a perfect 5, and the food also received a 5-star rating.

With overwhelmingly positive feedback, youre likely to find something you love, though perhaps stick to the specialty drinks over a standard latte.

Ambience (7.6 out of 10)
mentioned by 51% of the guests
The atmosphere here is largely a hit, scoring a good 7.6 with a fantastic 85.7% customer satisfaction! Many of the 28 opinions, specifically 24, rave about the bright and inviting space, highlighting the tall ceilings, abundant windows, and the lovely corner views. It creates a clean, comfortable, and relaxing vibe.
However, a few voices, 4 out of 28, felt the atmosphere could use some warmth, especially during darker seasons. They suggested softer lighting, more decorations, and perhaps some background music to make the minimalist interior feel less stark. It seems a touch more coziness could really elevate the experience for everyone.

If you appreciate a bright, clean, and modern setting with great views, you'll likely love the ambiance here. However, if you prefer a cozier, more decorated space with background music, you might find it a bit too minimalist, especially in winter.

Belltown's Happy Hour Gem
This place is a hidden gem in Belltown, offering one of the best happy hours around. With a corner view of the sound and facing the sculpture park, the atmosphere is lovely. The cocktails are fantastic value for money, and the flavors are spot on.
The food is incredibly flavorful, making it a convenient and delicious stop on the way to Seattle Center from Pike Place.

Authentic Chai and Delicious Dal!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic, especially with their chai. It's the best in Seattle, made from scratch with dried tea leaves, not pre-made syrup. I also enjoyed the Dal Moradabadi, which was on point and a perfect breakfast for a cold morning.

Unique Food, Great Value, Lacking Ambiance
My experience at this restaurant was defined by its amazing and unique food, offering fun twists on familiar dishes. The cocktails were equally fantastic and totally unique. The quality and value of both food and drinks were top-notch, truly punching above its weight.
However, the stark white, minimalist atmosphere felt a bit cold, especially during winter. I wished for softer lighting and more decorations to encourage lingering. Once past the atmosphere, the quality and value are undeniable.
