“ I was just passing through for work and found this place driving by. The Food is amazing! I can rarely eat a full burrito, but the butter chicken burrito was gone in one sitting. So. GOOD. Get the chai. Hands down the best marriage of beverages Ive had. Would love to see a more spicy version available. Whoever took my order was friendly and even offered a sample of the chai when I asked about it. Worth a stop. I went each day I was in town. ”
“ THE BEST INDIAN FOOD IN MODESTO!! fish pakora is amazing. Chile chicken is so delicious. The butter chicken is perfect. Seriously nothing is bad here. We like to get things family style vs individual (ie: burritos, torta, nachos, etc...) We did try the nachos and the flavors are great but the chips were a little stale. Still excellent flavor but we just prefer to eat everything family style. The torta was very good. You can't go wrong with anything you try here! THIS IS A MUST!!! I wish I could post pics but we dig in before we can take pics. Also, the sauces that come with the samosas, the green, the tamarind, and the chili sauce. OUT OF THIS WORLD. the spice levels are so delicious and they aren't too sweet, they aren't too spicy. They're so robust and have the best mix of Mexican and Indian flavors. ”
“ Crazy good, super delicious! Had the lamb sheesh kebab this time, seriously outrageous. Get a couple orders of garlic naan with it and an extra mint chutney, you can't go wrong. I've had a lot of things on their menu and am never disappointed. ”
“ First time trying the place, the guy helped me with what to order! Food was amazing! He gots a returning customer ”
“ Food was delicious. I'm definitely coming back for more! We bought the food around 6:30 pm. We bought the chicken quesadillas, lamb tacos, garlic and butter bread. I think my favorite dish was the chicken quesadilla. ”
“ My husband, my son and I walk by all the time on our walks in the morning and night so we finally decided to see if they had vegan food. THEY DO. And they know what the means. No "well is cheese okay?" They actually told us they don't recommend a vegan quesadilla because they don't have vegan cheese so it would just be something without cheese. It's so nice when people know what vegan means and accommodate! We tried the vegan burrito and the vegan tacos and they were BOMB. So so so good. When I read "Indian-Mexican fusion" I knew it wouldn't disappoint. The flavors complement so well. We will definitely be back for more. They were also very nice. If you want to stay and eat, there's only one table but we took ours to-go, so there wasn't an issue for us. I guess it might be loud if you choose to eat at the table. But the food would totally make it worth it! ”
“ Food was great! Got the burrito with chicken masala and combo Naan Torta with chicken masala, samosa + mango lassi. Price is reasonable for the quantity of food. Only "compliant" is the naan torta was a bit messy to eat and would fall apart, but other than that would still very recommend. Staff was really approachable and made small talk while ordering. ”
“ Listen. This should be a five star review. But I have to warn my fellow spice-wimps! THE FOOD FROM SIZZLIN' MASALA IS FIVE STAR BOMB! It is SO good. But if you're like me, and just hella sensitive to spicy foods, you gotta exercise caution with this one. My partner and I got food to go, two loaded burritos (one pakora fish, the other chicken masala), a Naan Chalupa with paneer masala, and a chai horchata! It did take about 30 minutes for it all to come together; but I urge you to remember that 'food truck' means 'mobile' and not 'fast food.' Good things come to those who wait! The Chai Horchata is SO GOOD! Like drinking a gingerbread cookie made especially for you by your grandma. I would go back for that alone. In fact, I regret not getting two because I'd definitely have delighted in not having to share. Swing by for that alone. Now the food? My partner ordered everything mild; which has got to be a relative thing because both burritos and the chalupa had such heat that I couldn't take more than a few bites of any of them before my mouth felt like it was on fire! I wish that I had any sort of tolerance because everything was so flavorful; incredibly flavorful! Just too dang hot for my wimpy tastebuds! The loaded chicken burrito was the messier of the two--downright greasy so be prepared! Ask for extra napkins or have some on standby if you take it to go. I'm coming back for you, Sizlin' Masala! Maybe not right away, but I'm coming back! Your food is so good! I just have to build up my spicy-heat-tolerance first! ”
“ Mango lassi always bomb, got to try the horchata chai this time and it was divineeeegarlic naan 100/10, always love this place the people who work there are so nice and I got there righttt before closing too (which can stress ppl out but they were sooo nice) and the food is always fresh made for you love this place sm!!! Will always come here for good food and good vibes ”
“ After reading other reviews, I expected a super friendly greeting at the truck, but was instead greeted with, "Do ya know what you want?" No warmth, but not rude either. It was what I'd expect in a busy New York deli. We waited nearly 20 minutes for our food, but my son said his chicken masala was a little cold inside of his burrito. He said it was just okay, not bad. My husband said his burrito was mushy and couldn't tell there was chicken in it. He wasn't impressed, and I was surprised after all of the glowing reviews. Fortunately, the samosas were fantastic. They were perfectly crispy outside, seasoned and soft inside, and the green sauce was the best. I'd return just for samosas and sauces. My butter chicken and garlic Naan were also amazing. We ordered two garlic Naans, but I expected more pieces. My husband reminded me that they weren't serving sizes of tortillas. Good point. They were so garlicky and fluffy that you might need two servings for one person. (Maybe it's enough if you order rice too, but we didn't order rice). I just dipped the Naan in the creamy butter sauce. They didn't give me a fork, and we were too lazy to walk back in the rain. I got full from the samosa and garlic Naan and still have butter chicken leftovers. 16 Oz is good for 3-4 small servings. The rich sauce is filling on its own. ”
