Presented by Chai Pani Restaurant Group, Botiwalla is Chef Meherwan Irani’s homage to the lively Irani Cafes of India – tea and kabab houses run by Parsis who immigrated to India in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. With a strange and wonderful mash-up of Victorian decor and Indian sensibilities, Irani Cafes catered to the English colonialists’ love of high tea and afternoon snacks. The other inspiration behind the menu of Botiwalla is the late-night street food scene of India. His mission with Botiwalla is to bring the streets of India to life — the glowing charcoal sigris, the sizzling meats, the aromas of chaat masala*, and the crispy, crunchy, multi-textured street snacks — in the most delicious way possible.
Brightly colored, counter-serve spot serving grilled Indian street food at a food hall.

Wow! Flavor bombs galore! Impeccable and service. First timer, so went with the chicken tikka masala wrap. Wow! Ask for the hot sauce! Chai is excellent too. Cute gifts and merch including culinary specialties. Awesome little gem in a cool food court. Atlanta is so hip to have this quality food, combined with service and atmosphere.

AMAZING! That’s how I would describe the food we had at this restaurant in Ponce City Market.
We ordered:
-Masala Smashed Potatoes – Delicious, soft inside with crisp skin, and seasoned perfectly.
-Paneer Tikka Roll – Great flavor, the paneer was soft, the vegetables were grilled well, the wrap was light, and everything came together beautifully.
-Chicken Tikka Roll – Flavorful, juicy chicken grilled to perfection.
The food is freshly grilled and made to order.
The ambience is great, and the service was quick.
Portions are filling, and the prices are very reasonable.

Definitely a must-visit spot! Authentic and truly replicates the real Indian taste. The highlights for me were the Chicken Tikka Roll and Chicken Tikka Rice Bowl — absolutely amazing! The chicken was grilled to perfection, well-spiced, and perfectly cooked. The roll had a great balance with the grilled bread, fresh salad, and juicy flavors bursting in every bite.
The Lamb Seekh Kebab Roll was also delicious — juicy and flavorful. I only wish it had a few more pieces of lamb considering the thickness of the bread, but still very good for the price.
The SPDP was spot on — loved the mix of mint and tamarind flavors, blended to perfection. The tea with Parle-G was the perfect finish.
Food quality and quantity are both top-notch, and the staff is very attentive and courteous. Getting a seat can be a bit tricky during peak hours, but it’s absolutely worth the wait!

I almost stopped suggesting ponce as a place to eat. Other restaurants are just expensive for mediocre meals, but not Botiwalla. This is probably in my top 10 best meals I’ve had in Atlanta…. AND it was very well priced! We both got the malai chicken roll and I 100% recommend this (to be fair it’s the only thing I’ve tried). For $11.99 that’s a good price and for the location you can’t eat cheaper. Also had the raspberry drink which hit the spot, not too sugary sweet, very refreshing!

Absolutely divine! Notably, the “Chicken Tikka” protein option for the salad bowl is quite reminiscent of Tandoori Chicken in the way it’s seasoned and charred to perfection. The textural contrasts of the greens and bhel with the chicken in the bowl were phenomenal, and the portion size of the bowl itself was huge!
My favorite dish, though, was the Maharaja Lamb Burger. Genuinely so delicious, and the lamb was so tender. Service and ambiance were also fantastic – the people were so kind and prompt, and the decor was close to how hotels in India decorate themselves.

This has easily become one of my favorite spots!
While my niece was visiting we stopped by Ponce City Market. When she saw that we had a Botiwalla she was immediately sold on eating here! I am so glad she suggested this spot! Home for her is Charlotte, NC and she mentioned they have a location there!
How it works?
You order your food at the entrance of the restaurant! Warning- they often have a line – yes it’s that good !! After placing your order you are either given a number to place on your table if dining in, or just verbally given a number to wait on your to go order.
I have been here at least 4 times within the last 2 months! The Crispy Masala Fish Roll is what keeps me coming back! The description from the website is as follows: Crispy wild caught Alaskan cod seasoned with cumin, lime, chilli powder, ginger, garlic. Wrapped in hot buttered naan with Desi slaw, onion, cilantro, green chutney & Maggi ketchup. (fish, milk, eggs, sesame, wheat)!! It always leaves me wanting more !
I have also tired the chai tea and cookies – I appreciate that the taste is light on both the tea and cookies. Other items I have tried are the Masala Smashed Potatoes and the veggie skewer. There is also another potato appetizer that I can’t recall the name of. Everything I have tried has been a love for me !
In addition to great tasting food, the service has always been good ! This place is just a vibe and I highly recommend checking it out !

Our group ordered the chicken tikka roll, a bowl, and mango lassi. The flavors were delicious and not overly spiced, which made everything very enjoyable. The only downside was that it was quite crowded on Saturday lunchtime, and it was hard to find seating.

Always my go-to for a great takeout lunch. So fast, even when Ponce is packed. I’ve never tried anything besides the chicken tikka roll and desi salad, just because I like them so much! Would def recommend also getting a kabob (especially chicken) if you want a little extra protein. Always great!

A good spot for a quick bite with reasonable pricing, but the food itself was disappointing. My skewers were dry, and overall the taste just didn’t stand out. I’ve had better Indian street food elsewhere. The concept is better than the execution.

Wowie, this food was great!! The Chicken Tikka Roll with the sauce was delicious. The flavour of the sauce is fresh and it pairs great with it. The nan was nice and buttery and we enjoyed it with our meals. We also got Tea for Two, my husband that has been to India before said that the chai is the most authentic one he’s had. The tea pot serves 6 cups and it was great with the dipping bread. A nice taste of Indian cuisine 🙂
