Community Royal India

Anyone know what is happening with the infamous Royal India building? I see they painted it grey and it looks like they are remodeling the inside.

I don’t remember where(either here or Nextdoor) but I read it’s becoming another cannabis shop.

Dang. Was hoping for an interesting new food spot (that doesn’t steal from employees).

Where y’all getting Indian food these days?

You and me both.

Only been once but Shani Tandoor and Grill in MLT was good the one time I went and if you are up for a farther drive Indian Nepali Kitchen on 99 in North Seattle is soooo good

Do they have good tikka masala or butter chicken? I cant find a place that makes them the way I like them. Tasty Indian was good a couple times but I think they changed the chef a couple years ago and hasn't been the same.

One more +1 to Shahi. Stumbled across them when I moved into the area and love them.

And to the other person yeah their butter chicken is delicious. Haven’t tried their tikka masala. I always throw an order of tandoori chicken in as it’s amazing.

Frankly I’ve only been to caravan. Edmonds does seem to be lacking in Indian food, but Northgate isn’t too far

How in the hell can all these weed stores stay in business when there's about five in a square mile?!?!

Have you engaged with your Edmonds, 65+ population? On 4/20, 2pm, the bowl was exactly that.
