50 Best Indian Restaurants near Sausalito

“Had just arrived in San Francisco, and hit the road heading to Sonoma for a wedding this weekend. Looking for a place to have lunch and we found Avatars on line. So, we decided to try it, and we are glad we did. Our meals were cooked fresh to order and they were delicious! Friendly staff and a place we will fondly remember and look forward to trying again on our next trip out here!!“

“Best Indian food I’ve eaten in many years!!“

“Visiting from England and fancied a curry. The curry did not disappoint. Good food, friendly staff and good service. Next time I visit San Francisco I’ll definitely eat there again.“

“i go to nepa indian cuisine today food taste very good like home. curry is nice and naan very soft and fresh too. staff people polite and service is fast i not wait long. place is little bit small but clean i like it. i think i will come back soon with friends because price also fair. good honest food.“

“Sunset Indian Restaurant, has taken over the former Naan N' Curry location, and the transformation is impressive. The interior has been thoughtfully updated with attractive décor, a carpeted dining room that softens the space, and the welcome addition of two bathrooms — a definite improvement for guests.

I especially appreciate that they now offer beer on tap, which pairs nicely with their menu. The wine selection is also solid, providing good options to complement the meal.

As for the food, the Lamb Biryani is easily a 5+ star dish. The rice is light, loose, and beautifully aromatic, with just the right level of spice. The addition of cashews adds a subtle richness and texture that really elevates the dish. I also thoroughly enjoyed the Palak Paneer, which was prepared with a creamy, well-balanced sauce and a generous amount of paneer.

An added treat was the plain naan — simple yet perfectly done — which complemented both dishes wonderfully and rounded out the meal.

Overall, Sunset Indian Restaurant is a strong addition to the neighborhood, offering flavorful dishes, thoughtful updates to the space, and a comfortable dining experience.“

“The food was excellent and mouth watering! The staff, friendly and attentive. I highly recommend.“

“A rather odd place. First of all, the tandoori chicken and the palak paneer were fantastic – the best I’ve ever had, I think. However, the naan (we got plain and garlic) was the worst I have ever had. Think thin, bad pizza dough. The basmati rice was alright. Service was friendly but a bit slow and scattered. The women’s bathroom was dirty enough that I decided to wait until I got back home. The tension on the door to the women’s bathroom was set so high that the door slammed into me quite hard.“

“Delicious lunch buffet . The server - Fabi was so kind and offered us chai tea and mango lassi. We came late for lunch and they were so patient with us and we had a fabulous meal and didn’t feel rushed. I recommend 100% this long existed neighbourhood restaurant (25 years old).“

“We visited Tiya yesterday. The food was very good and we really enjoyed it. They also gave us a special room, which made our experience even better. The ambience is nice and comfortable. However, the chai was very cold and could be improved. There is also a parking problem around the restaurant. Overall, it was a good experience.“

“Food was absolutely phenomenal. Service great and staff friendly. Ate quite alot and didnt have a single bad dish. Naan was on the house, pricing was great anyway. Plenty of vegan gluten and dairy free options. 5 stars my new favorite location“

“Food was so good and servic was very fast🥰“

“Excellent made to order Momo’s. I can’t wait to return!“

“Excellent service from the workers and owner was so welcoming from the step I entered to the way out. I was delighted with the quality of food and it tasted very nice with the owner even complimenting me with kheer on the house as I was visitor in SF. Overall I would recommend this to all family and friends.“

“Had a great dinner at Copra. Food was great - we had the gunpowder goli vadai, thattukadai fried chicken, masala dosai, Dindigal biryani and dessert. The biryani was a little mild, but rest all very good. We all really enjoyed the dessert especially - gods own coconut variation. My only complaint is that the lighting is way too dim and low that it gives a headache.“

“Hey there foodie friends, Guess what? I just had the most delicious and authentic North Indian food during my visit to San Francisco! I never expected to find such yummy flavors in the USA. From buttery naan to spicy curries, my taste buds were dancing with joy! If you ever get the chance, you HAVE to try it out. Trust me, you won't be disappointed! Keep on adventuring and trying new things!“

“Seriously underrated. The owner wanted me to eat the panipuri in the restraunt when it was takeout order saying it would get soggy. I was like nah I'm still going to have that that takeout and he literally poured a bunch of the tamarind water into a Togo coffee cup with lid. The service is second to none. Also the lamb biryani is so good. Cost wise its not overly expensive. Taste wise its rlly good“

“the owner) was real nice and funny. There were 8 in our group and 6 has never tried Indian or Nepalese food before.we ordered Lab biriyani ,Garlic naan ,Samosas ,Tandoori mixed plater ,Vegetable momo,Chicken tikka masala ,Black Dal ,Lamb palak
,Mango lassi and Himalayan iced tea .all of the food was great but the 6 who have never been loved the chicken tikka masala. I would definitely recommend this place to someone looking for some Indian food/ Nepalese food.“

“Wow! We visited this restaurant for the first time today and were pleasantly surprised by the incredible taste of their food. They had dairy free options which we really appreciated and absolutely every dish that we ordered was delicious. We'll be coming back to this place for sure!“

“I am meeting friends here. We are quickly welcomed and seated on our table. Reservations are a must I think.

I see a smoking plate being carried to a nearby table and I know what I’ll be ordering.

Our host is friendly and efficient. Our server attentive and checks our order for correctness. The service and attention to detail is good. Our table is cleaned a number of times and waters are refilled fast. I don’t think I got to anything less than 1/2 a glass.

The smoking plate is dahi puri. Nicely done. The yoghurt mousse on it is unique. There a bit of a kick from the masala. Very tasty. Very enjoyable.

For the mains we had lamb shank nihari and butter chicken. The playing is gorgeous. The food has a nice unique taste. A bit different from the regular flavors of these dishes but in a good way. The garlic naan bread delivers.

The texture of milk looks beautiful, tastes just right, and offers an excellent capper to a delicious meal.

Great experience. Nice ambiance. Good vibes.

Will be back.“

“Of all the Indian restaurants in the Bay Area that I tried, this restaurant has the best food imo. I discovered this place by chance on the way to Napa. After having a full meal, I ordered another meal for takeout because the food was so good. I've been here twice now. It's exceptionally good.“

“I’ve been eating here for years and love this spot! Even when I was diagnosed with celiac’s I was able to keep eating here because they have so many gluten-free options.

Food is delicious, staff is incredibly nice, and the new location is so cute!“

“Not the best Ive had, Royal indian on uber eats still beats the butter chicken. The pistachio Kulfi was amazing and the service was very good. We had roti, naan, butter chicken and rice. I will be back here for another dinner and try some of the other things on the menu.“

“We visited during new year’s eve; the place was empty and service was quick.

The ambience is ambient, food options excellent and drinks also on point.

We ordered chilly momo, tandoori chicken, coconut chicken curry and Indian breads.

The best dish was hands down the chilly momo, super tasty!
Tandoori chicken was overcooked and rubbery.
Coconut chicken curry was tasty too!
The breads were excellent.

I also ordered an old fashioned, and it was powerfully! One drink and I was buzzed.

Our bill was around 120$ for 4 adults.“

“We had an excellent experience with this Indian restaurant. The flavors were authentic, rich, and perfectly balanced. Every dish was freshly prepared and beautifully presented. The service was attentive and welcoming, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Highly recommended for anyone looking for quality Indian cuisine.“

“Really good Nepalese momo and chwomin there. Recommend everyone to give this a try“

“The food is quite good but having a blaring TV in the dining room is so wrong- it cheapens the experience, robs the atmosphere diners might enjoy on a night out. Quite unpleasant. The owners should rethink that and visit other restaurants in SF to see if they are blaring TV’s. San Franciscans do not enjoy having TV’s playing in restaurants. It’s a misunderstanding of the culture here.“

“This is the most delicious Indian food I have ever had. The time and care taken to make this food shows in the taste and presentation. The atmosphere is near fine dining but the price is not. The service is impeccable but most of all the food is excellent.
Come here and eat!“

“We stopped there on our way to catch our flight at SF airport. We were short on time and we placed our order. Our server was fantastic helping us to order and we were served our dinner promptly. There was a feeling that all the staff worked together as a team, looking after all the tables not just their own station. That is a sign of true teamwork. We really enjoyed our dinner there. Food and service~ EXCELLENT!“

“This place made the tastiest veggie curry dish - I asked for the Channa Masala extra spicy and they did such a great job! Their garlic naan is very good too. I am not an expert or Indian food aficionado. However, I love the taste of their food and the girl I spoke with over the phone was very sweet!“

“I recently visited this Indian restaurant and was blown away by the variety on the menu! From rich curries to sizzling tandoori platters, there’s something for every palate. But what truly stole the show for me were the momos and chowmein absolute perfection!
The momos were juicy, flavorful, and served with a spicy dipping sauce that packed just the right punch. The chowmein was delightfully savory, with a perfect balance of spices and fresh veggies a comforting, street-style classic done right.
Whether you're craving traditional Indian dishes or something with a Nepali flair, this place delivers on all fronts. Highly recommend for anyone looking to explore bold, authentic flavors in a cozy setting!“

“I had their lamb roganjosh, aloo Gobi, and chicken chettinand. People might say Pakwan is the place to go for good Indian food in the city, but I was thoroughly impressed with what I ate at Keeva. This is not watered down gringofied Indian food. Absolutely loved the lamb roganjosh, the cauliflower and potatoes were very well spiced, and while I personally didn't like the chettinand, I understand the flavor profile and what that dish is. You're missing out on really delicious Indian food if you're not eating here.“

“Had just arrived in San Francisco, and hit the road heading to Sonoma for a wedding this weekend. Looking for a place to have lunch and we found Avatars on line.

Friendly staff and a place we will fondly remember and look forward to trying again on our next trip out here!!“

“The staff was so nice!! We had 2 different dishes plus drinks. It was right after the game so it was nice and quiet for us and not a crowd at all.
The naan was delicious!! The garlic naan was really good but the onion naan was even better!!
The mango lassi was delicious 😋

Thank you for the service.“

“Lunch buffet is really good and at a fair price.“

“Curry corner Indian pizza is one of the best Pizza I ever had, best price n great pizza 🍕.“

“I got Karahi Gosht and it was authentic and flavorful. Serving quantity was decent as well. I live in the South Bay and most places over there don't get this dish right. 5* from me, for the Karahi Gosht and Naan. Service understandably took some time because they make it fresh and piping hot. And I went there in between performances of standup comedy at Cobb's next door.“

“The food here is absolutely delicious! It’s a bit on the pricey side, but totally worth it for the amazing flavors and the amount of food. The saag paneer and cheese naan are my absolute favorites — I can’t get enough! I’ve been three times now, and it never disappoints. Highly recommend!“

“A hole in the wall restaurant with no fills bell or whistles but the food is outstanding. And that’s the best authentic food in the area. Food has been consistent for the past 20 years that I and adult children have been eating here. Kuddos“

“The best Indian vegetarian food! Organic and amazing seasoning.“

“Relatively new restaurant opened in San Francisco with prices in the range of $25-$35pp. Delhi special chhole bhature, bedmi aloo, and Raj Kachori are really well made and tasty. Some other items we ordered - Chai, Pav Bhaji, and Onion Kachori, are okay but wouldn’t say they stole the show. Bhaji that came with the Pav was too less, and we were charged $6 for extra Bhaji that should have been provided in the first place :( Decor is very tasteful, with a lot of elements from India such as elephants, doors of old havelis, wooden pillar brackets etc. Last order is at 9:10pm, and automatic 20% gratuity is applied for groups of 5 or more.“

“Been eating here basically since it opened. Used to be another Indian place that I frequented but when Tilak took over, the food took a leap up.

It's still one of the best Indian restaurants in the city. Easily. Everything is so good and flavorful... from basics like dahl and butter chicken to more unusual dishes like masala lamb racks and goan prawns. If something on the menu looks a bit unusual, that you don't recognize from other Indian places, I recommend going for it.

Tilak himself and the rest of the staff are friendly and awesome, but the food... Just great stuff all the way down the menu.

So, yeah, easily my favorite Indian place in SF and the place we've been doing our company holiday dinner for the last five or six years.“

“Excellent food and friendly service!!!“

“Su personal y su comida está deliciosa y accesible sus precios están bastante cómodos está muy rica su comida“

“i am so grateful for Udupi Palace it’s one of my favorite restaurants in the Bay Area everything is so delicious!!! ���South Indian People, Food & Culture ���“

“I Definitely recommend their momos. its super tasty and juicy.“

“I had the Chicken Tikka Masala and Aloo Naan. It was very good I recommend this restaurant.“

“Support excellent food and a longtime San Francisco tradition!“

“Just stopped in as a business owner staying at the Clancy hotel up the street and found this place open. They were amazingly open towards helping me with my food choices since I haven’t been always open to it. I wanted simple, not too spicy and they nailed it. I got a great simple chicken appetizer followed by an easy lamb dish with potatoes. Holy moly! She came back with a small dessert on the house.Don’t expect a freebie when you come but I always love it when I’m appreciated. Give these guys a chance. They are special. They now have cocktails too. I happened to stumble in on the week they got their license.“

“We had a great meal here on a quiet Tuesday night, and I’d love for more people to know what a gem this spot is! The food was tasty — we had a variety of vegetarian dishes — and the service was super friendly. I loved the calming water feature and a lack of screens in the dining room; the presence of screens seems to be becoming the norm at more casual restaurants. Looking forward to coming here regularly!“
