#5 Fried Paneer- 5
Perfectly friend paneer served with tomato chutney, tikka sauce, raita crema, Thai basil inside a flour tortilla. These are the kind of things I imagine they serve in the taco shops in heaven. Cause obvs, there’s tacos in heaven. Even non-vegetarians would love this. Just go get it.
#6 Falafel- 4.5
Two large falafels served with tahini crema, arugula, tomato, pickled fresnos, avocado, pickled red onion, pea tendrils inside a lettuce wrap. The falafel (thank you velvet taco) is not burnt or dry. Which is sadly, a fate that most falafel in town fall victim to. And I know I should like lettuce wraps being a vegetarian, but I honestly usually don’t. I mean who would want iceberg when you can have carbs? But, these are an exception. It’s the perfect crisp and cool hug that the falafels, veggies and sauce needs.
Overall, Velvet Taco is awesome. It’s small and super casual. You’ll see people in t-shirts and jeans and people in suits on their lunch break. Plenty of fun creative options and reasonably priced. Can’t wait to go back! 🙂
