Botiwalla (Downtown)

Botiwalla is a counter-service Indian restaurant in downtown Asheville. It’s part of the Spicewalla portfolio along with crowd-favorite Chai Pani. In fact, this Botiwalla location is in the original Chai Pani space. Chai Pani outgrew the small downtown shop and relocated to South Slope in early 2024.

Botiwalla’s menu includes easy-to-eat bites like okra fries, vada pad and an Indo-Chinese cauliflower appetizer. Part of their menu is focused on flatbread rolls like a chicken tikka roll, paneer tikka roll and a lamb kofta roll.

You’ll also find a lamb burger on the menu. Grab a mango lassi or raspberry gin rickey slushie and enjoy the cool + casual atmosphere.

Botiwalla has a second location in West Asheville (and another in Charlotte!)
