Mixed seafood sizzling tandoori dish was excellent. Salmon in curry okay. Maybe better with cod. Gracious service. Quiet enough for a conversation.

My favorite restaurant to go to with friends I want to talk with. Lovely, quiet and peaceful, and delicious food. Perfect!!

We haven't been to Ajanta in years - it was good to be back! The munu now offers three types of meals: a modest dinner, a dinner with one more course, and a la carte (including specials of the month). Everything was as good as we remembered; it is good to have more choices now.

Taking a friend for a birthday lunch was just what I hoped. The food was delicious, the staff individual was lovely in every way and the ambience of the restaurant was so relaxing and quiet.
Jerrald
Great food; chef obviously cares. Big portions as well. Service was friendly but not hovering. It was great to be able to talk and hear other person speak, unlike many restaurants. Highly recommend.
Kay
Loved that it was quiet and cozy for my conversation with my daughters. So often of late, it's impossible to carry on with talking. I've stopped going to those restaurants who feel like music and noise are hip (or whatever they think). The wait staff was attentive and the food was yummy.

I was the youngest patron in this establishment (41F, single). The portion sizes are great! The food isn't authentic 🇮🇳, but it's pretty good. Lamb Biryani was good but a bit dry. Sabzi Rangarang was good. It's a bit pricey. Not super crowded spot, might return.

We came with group of 13 ppl on Wednesday night.We ordered portobello mushroom, Lamb chops, Tikka Masala and Naan. Everything was so delicious. Our group really enjoyed the atmosphere and the service. We will surely be returning again.

Had the nonvegatarian tasting dinner. The food was okay but nothing memorable. Servers were attentive and always present when needed. We arrived the last 1.25 hours before closing so that may have affected the food quality.

I Ordered the special (vegetarian) dinner which had options to choose from- I had the vegetable samosa , spinach kofta, nan. Chutneys , basmati rice, and rice pudding for dessert. Plenty of food and at $28.00 quite a good deal everything was delicious. One minor issue was annoying. One or two fruit flies kept buzzing around me. Management should remediate this ASAP
I’ve been to many Indian restaurants and I’ve even been to India so I know what good Indian food should taste like. Unfortunately, the food here was not good, and the service wasn’t any better. The flavors were off and didn’t feel authentic. Very disappointing overall.

I've never ever had a bad experience at Ajanta. Top notch food with first class service in a lovely restaurant. This is the place to go for the best Indian food in the Bay Area in my opinion. And great for special occasions too - we went there for Father's Day this year and it was the perfect choice. Everyone loved everything they ordered from appetizer to dessert.

New owner. Food deteriorated. Very little meat or cheese in dishes, all sauce. The ban is good. Not worth the money. This used to be a good place. Too bad.
Gayle
The service is impeccable and the food is unique and tasty. Not your typical Indian restaurant . I recommend reservations as it's a small restaurant and usually busy. .
