The Kati Roll Company has enjoyed growing popularity since opening in 2002, earning both critics awards and the approval of a diverse clientele. The signature dish of The Kati Roll Company, Kati Rolls, are made by wrapping warm paratha, a type of Indian flat bread, around a variety of meats, vegetables and cheese. Diners may choose from a select few fillings like beef, chicken, lamb, egg, cheese or potatoes to construct a Kati Roll to their liking. The finished Kati Roll is wrapped and served hot, making it a satisfying meal that can be enjoyed virtually anywhere. Open until 5 am on weekends.
Staff has given verbal assurance of halal status. From the management: 'We marinate and grill all of our fillings in–house with a proprietary blend of up to 30 hand–ground spices and flavors. All of our meats are certified halal and our chicken is antibiotic and hormone free.'
Score reflects a halal certificate on file, with an active issue report under review.
$8/roll, had 2 rolls - very filling, very tasty
Tastes good but the hygiene is disgusting
This is a sit-down but mostly take-out South Asian chain restaurant serving kati rolls (fried bread with filling such as egg, vegetables, cheese, and/or meat). There is enough seating inside for 10-15 people, but usually the place is pretty full so be ready for take-out. Located on 53rd, parking is pretty tough to find so leave the Nissan Skyline GT-R R32 at home. The employees of this location verified everything is halal. This reviewer has tried the chicken tikka roll with ($6) and without egg ($5) and the beef tikka roll with egg ($7). All are best eaten hot and are delicious and filling. The mango lassi ($3) is overpriced but goes great with the greasy kati rolls. This restaurant is highly recommended for a quick meal.
Good place for lunch. Kati rolls taste good. I often try the chicken tikka and beef rolls with egg for the best taste.
Their rolls are very convenient to eat!
