Firangi Restaurant & Bar

Located on Grand Avenue in the former 'Vinz' unit next to the Patio Playhouse Theater, it's nice to have an option for Indian food in Escondido. The restaurant is fairly spacious with indoor and outdoor dining, a long bar, and a couple of pool tables in a connected room/area. I found the decor/atmosphere slightly stark and more 'café' than 'gastropub'. Maybe that changes on busy evenings. The food was great, although we noticed they didn't ask about a 'spice level' -- it was a mild one-size-fits-all spice. A nice touch was a metal water vessel that was provided on the table with metal cups. The owner was friendly. The waitress was slightly odd. Wait time for food was a tiny bit slow. There's a single unisex restroom off the back patio, accessed by code. Ample parking on the surroundi

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ FIRANGI Authentic Indian Gastropub — What a Place! Wow. I honestly walked in expecting a good Indian restaurant… but what I found was something completely different. This place isn’t just a restaurant — it’s a full-blown lounge with style. First thing you notice is the vibe. Beautiful Tiffany-colored interior, elegant lighting, and a stunning marble bar that looks like it belongs in some high-end lounge in London or Dubai. Very classy, very comfortable, very cool. But wait… it gets better. POOL TABLES! And not just decoration — actual playable tables. $1 a game! I nearly fell off my chair. I haven’t played in ages. When I was younger I used to be pretty serious about pool, so naturally I had to grab a cue and see if I still had the magic. Let’s just say… the spirit is still

Best Indian food I have ever had, I am completely blown away. The service from Sky was incredible, she was so sweet and knowledgeable about the menu which made ordering a breeze, my group had apps, curry, butter chicken, NA drinks and dessert and each one of those was phenomenal. I got the butter chicken and I will be dreaming about it tonight. The owner came out and was so kind and welcoming, I already can't wait to go back.

Amazing food and even better service! Every dish we tried was full of authentic flavors and perfectly spiced. The menu has a great variety, and everything tasted fresh. You can tell the chefs really know what they’re doing. The service was warm and attentive. The staff made us feel right at home and even gave great recommendations. It’s a place we’ll definitely come back to. Highly recommended for anyone craving quality Indian food!

First time here and atmosphere was great staff was very nice and attentive. Food was delicious, as well as the drinks. Music was great! It was on and a little loud but you could still talk and enjoy yourself. It was quiet at the same time clean and just loved the experience. We will be returning
