43 Best Indian Restaurants near Citrus Heights

“New Owners! Delicious Persian and Pakistani (alternate pages of menu). We had their paneer appetizer). It had big cubes of soft Pakistani cheese in a tomato based cream sauce with finely chopped ginger. Fabulous. We also enjoyed a grilled eggplant with a Persian yogurt cultured from sheep and goat milks. The butter chicken was exceptional: he grills his chicken, chops it, then adds the juicy chunks of meat into his delectable sauce. His ground beef kabob was juicy and tender. I enjoyed an inhouse, freshly made mango lassi. Wow! We have enough leftover to enjoy a shared lunch tomorrow.“

“We have searched so many Indian restaurants. This is by far the best tasting food outside of India. Anjoo is still talking about her Chole bhatura. Everything is made from the love of taste. Five out of five stars. I dare anyone after tasting the food to say anywhere outside of India is better prepared.“

“It's my 1st time @ an Indian restaurant like this 1. The service is great and friendly. Also, the food is so delicious. Especially the Alu Samosa and the Mango Lassi because they're officially my favorite stuff.“

“Rosie’s Country Kitchen in Citrus Heights was amazing. The customer service was excellent and when I got there to pick up my to-go order, everything was fresh, hot, and ready right on time. The food was delicious and tasted homemade. This place also has such a nostalgic feeling to it. It was my grandparents’ favorite restaurant back in the day, and walking in honestly feels like stepping back in time in the best way possible. Definitely recommend if you want great comfort food and a welcoming atmosphere.“

“Amazing customer service by Baba. Excellent dinning place. The food was exceptional and definitely coming back again! Recommending for anyone who wants good Indian food!“

“Fantastic Indian food. Authentic and non greasy. Had Vijayawada biriyani, lamb Visalia and chicken curry for dinner. Alex the owner did not disappoint ! He personally checked every single item to make sure everything was done to perfection.“

“Stumbled upon this restaurant, and so glad I did! I had the best chana masala I've ever had at an Indian restaurant here. The depth of spices and fresh taste set it apart. The baingan bharta was good, but I've had better. We also tried the dosa with coconut dipping sauce, and it was very crispy and tasty. Over half the menu is vegan or can be made vegan by request. I like how many booth seats there are here, and a nice window seat section as well. Very calming atmosphere with professional staff. I do wish there was more variety to the art on the walls though, as it feels a little bland.“

“Had an amazing experience at Fuzion Bistro in Rancho Cordova! The food was absolutely delicious, and a few dishes really stood out. The Fish Tandoori was perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of smoky flavor, tender on the inside with a nice char on the outside. The White Sauce Pizza was rich and creamy without being too heavy—each bite was packed with flavor. And the Baingan Bharta? Easily one of the best I’ve had, with that deep, roasted eggplant flavor coming through beautifully. On top of the great food, the service was friendly and efficient, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Definitely a spot worth visiting if you’re in the area. Will be back for sure!“

“Whenever we come here, we’re attended to with the utmost care. The service is always wonderful, the food is amazing and truly authentic, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. It’s such a family-friendly restaurant, and we always leave happy.“

“Soooo good! My partner is English so grew up eating Indian food, and I lived there for a few years and would eat it regularly. We’ve been looking for a top-tier Indian restaurant in the Sac area for years, and we’ve finally found it with this place! An instant favorite.

We got chicken tikka masala, butter chicken, chicken biriyani, samosas, and pakoras. All perfect and so delicious. Literally no improvements needed.“

“Tried the weekend buffet. Very tasty and fresh. Was quite busy so took a bit to refill the buffet. Overall everything was delicious and lots of variety.

“We order Catering for all our staff once a month and the deliever the best food always. The restaurant is owned by our owners cousion, so I always had a thought that due to the owners influence we get some extra ordinary food for catering. But then I went in with my Family on one of Friday night to check the rstaurant and it was much more better when we ordered the food for Dine in. Those Sizzling Platters were just Amazing. Must Try out Place For Caterings, To Go & Dine in. The believe in perfection -Manager Redline Tires & Wheels - Roseville“

“Came in looking to see if the lunch buffet was available, but was happy to find a delicious lunch combo option instead. It's been a while since I've had the chance to stop by, so I'm glad it's still as good as I remember.“

“This is my favorite restaurant in the Rancho Cordova/Folsom area. I’ve tried most of the Persian and Afghan restaurants in the area and this is my favorite. The mantu dumplings amazing 🔥🔥🔥 The lamb chops are perfectly seasoned and cooked every time, the beef kabobs are tender and packed with flavor, and the chicken biryani is rich, aromatic, and balanced. The naan is fresh, warm, and some of the best I’ve had. The white/green/red sauces are incredible and ties everything together. On top of the food, the service is consistently top tier —
attentive, welcoming, and professional. Highly recommend.“

“Wonderful experience at Ruchi, as always. The server was so polite, food was so delicious. You can tell everything is made for order. My husband and I frequent here. The lunch buffet is unbeatable in price and taste!! If you get the buffet, try the chai tea, you won’t regret it.

Don’t mind the half eaten food in the pics, we couldn’t wait!“

“Beef curry, polaw, Bangladeshi dishes is sooo good� I really enjoyed it �“

“The food tasted great and customer service was great. What i did not appreciate was the fact that we went to the buffet and my teenage son wanted to treat us well not knowing they had a table with dessert we asked if for everyone with buffet they said yes. When my son went to pay what was supposed to be $60 for 3 buffets was $85 because each item was individually priced on the dessert. Also they ran out of the meat that his friend enjoyed eating so he didn't get the full enjoyment of the buffet. They stated they would make sure not to run out we could come back tomorrow but at $85 that is way too much.“

“I always enjoy their cooking. Besides the food, I like the friendly staff! I recommend dining with them.“

“What a great find this was. The absolute best Indian food I have ever had Service is fantastic as well!! I will absolutely be going back!“

“I don't even know what to say about Namaste foods other than I've never had anything that I didn't like from there. the food tastes wonderful. I was just at Sac Yard brewing where your truck was and had the samosas and the butter chicken fries and everything was hot fresh and tasty. the food is very gourmet tasting. fresh, hot and very well prepared!! I actually like it better than some of the fine establishments I've been to here locally. that's the best I can say to describe this truck. in this day and age of restaurants not seeming to care about their product this is a welcomed port in the proverbial storm! thank you Namaste Foods for caring! ❤️“

“This place is legit. Everything we had was fantastic: Curry Chicken Masala Pizza Pepperoni and Cheese Pizza Masala Chips Desi Garlic Sticks Chocolate Chip Cookie“

“My friend and I had the chicken tikka masala lunch special. Plenty of food and fresh & smelled amazing. All was good, the beans, yogurt sauce were great. The nanny bread was the star, fresh, warm, and soft, so yummy. The chicken was spicy and had small bones to pick through but not bad. I had a hard time with the heat of the curry, but my sinuses are clear! The staff were friendly and the restaurant was very clean. I would go again.“

“A gorgeous new place! Exceptional food quality, excellent service, and the decor is fine dining worthy.“

“Love the lunch combo!All the dishes are cooked to perfection!Awesome service!“

“Good breakfast food and dinner. I would give it 5 stars if they actually had a true porterhouse steak. I do not trust the cheese. I believe it's artificial. It doesn't melt or taste like cheese. I Recommend avoiding the cheese. Your dishes will be better for it!“

“Vada Pav is back and delicious. Goat Mutton and Pav Bhaji - Yummy!!!“
