Roti Roll (Bombay Frankie)

"Some neighborhoods are known for their late night food options. Others—looking at you, Upper West Side—are not. But it doesn't matter all that much, because Roti Roll exists. This takeout spot is open until 2am or 3am during the week, and 4am on weekends, and they churn out mini burrito-sized roti rolls stuffed with tender chunks of saucy lamb or channa masala. Options range from $4 to $8, and there's a door inside the tiny storefront that connects them to Suite, the gay bar next door. You can order roti from inside the bar—if you'd like a nightcap with your palak paneer roll—or just listen to the bar’s soundtrack while you wait for your order next door." - willa moore, will hartman, neha talreja, bryan kim, sonal shah

"This narrow but delicious stall concentrates on the street food of Mumbai, sometimes known as Bombay frankies. Plenty of vegetarian and vegan options are available here in rolled-up rotis with a variety of fillings, including spinach, mushroom, omelet, and potatoes. This is fast food at its flavorful best, and don’t miss the spicy masala fries." - Eater Staff

"At Roti Roll, a Columbia student favorite for over 20 years, you'll find roti, slick with green chutney, filled with onion and tomato, and your choice of protein: try the tender, slightly spicy lamb, and the creamy palak paneer. The rolls have the heft of tamales and range from $4 (egg) to $8 (lamb). This closet-sized takeout spot is open until at least 2am every night (4am on weekends), so swing by for a satisfying snack, or after a night out, when everything else closed hours ago." - willa moore, sonal shah, neha talreja, will hartman

"Hours: Thursday to Saturday, 11 a.m. to 4 a.m.; Sunday to Monday, 11 a.m. to 2 a.m.; Tuesday to Wednesday, 11 a.m. to 3 a.m. Kathi rolls, roti wrapped around fillings like egg, chickpeas, and marinated lamb, are the specialty of this late-night shop on the Upper West Side. They come in several preparations for about $5 to $10 each, like creamy chicken malai, pickled paneer, and curried shrimp." - Luke Fortney, Robert Sietsema

"Roti Roll is another late night favorite of mine that serves up pretty authentic Indian Street Food, perfect after a night of drinking. I love getting the Aloo Gobi Muttar Frankie (Spiced Potatoes, Cauliflower & Green Peas), Chicken Lollipops and Popcorn Shrimp!" - Ken Pao
