Nalan Indian Cuisine - Downingtown: Reviews & Ratings
The food is amazing!!! They are in a great location, with a wonderful atmosphere. The service is so great. You can sit outside by the river front and eat amazing healthy food.
My favorite vegan restaurant in Delaware. Food is always good and they have a nice variety. I solid go-to, period. I recommend for vegans and non-vegans.
The v-steak was incredible. I took a bite and realized filling up on cookies'n'cream ice cream in a waffle cone (yum!) And the lobster Mac (such creamy deliciousness), thinking I could wait until later to eat my sandwich was a mistake. I ate it all despite feeling like I might burst at the table. No regrets. Would do again. Wish I could get that v-steak in NYC. Dreaming about it. Speaking of dreamy, the location is just wonderful to spend a nice evening looking at the waterfront.
Working down at the Riverfront. Popped in to check it out. Enjoyed the vegan hot dog and some ice cream. They had outdoor seating but nothing inside. I like the vibe of the place. They are under staffed, so the 3 ladies in there were hustling. You may have to wait for your order or to go order. The food was very good.
For those who know me, know that I'm a foodie.. and yeah I get excited and say it's the best ever, but seriously, Drop Squad Kitchen offers the best, and it's vegan! #dropsquadkitchen #freshvegansoulfood #healthyliving #wilmingtonriverfront
