50 Best Indian Restaurants near Colma

“I really never have enjoyed tasting menus….but Tiya’s tasting menu fully changed my opinion on them. 4/6 dishes were things I probably wouldn’t have ordered on a regular menu so getting to try these dishes was a treat. We supplemented the tasting menu with the chicken gushtaba and the shrimp. They were both so good but the gushtaba was outstanding….Think a chicken meatball in fondue.
Everything was a flavor bomb and I would definitely come back“

“Very hard to overstate how absolutely amazing this place is. The food is superb, the atmosphere is wonderful, and the service goes above and beyond to ensure you have the most perfect experience. Some of the best restaurants in the Bay Area. Extremely recommended!“

“We chose India Clay Oven for hosting a Baby shower, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. We were 25 people and everyone had a great time! The owner Mr. Nirmal(Norman) is a gem of a person. He was very sincere and helped us choose the right menu. He was also able to accommodate a few extra people who showed up! The service was also great, hats off!“

“We ordered chicken curry, dal makhni, garlic naan and mango lassi and were pretty much satisfied with the taste and quality of food. Also the prices were pocket friendly and portion were decent. Would definitely recommend this place for quality Indian food.“

“I loved the variety of flavours at this restaurant. It’s a great place for people who don’t typically eat Indian food, but want to try it. Highlights were the dosa and bone marrow. Only thing is some dishes were a bit dry/tough (the large beef dish and the fried chicken)“

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

“Highly highly recommend. It’s hard for us to go to the city without stopping here to eat, we love bringing new friends here as well. If you love Indian food, this is a great place.

Vegetarian options: There’s a large vegetarian section and they are familiar with vegan and we’re even careful to warn me that one of the items I ordered is not vegan“

“Enjoyed a beautiful meal here. Food: buryani, naan basket, chicken potato curry, Napalese noodle soup to start. Excellent food, EXCEPT the $9 top Ramen soup starter. Wtf? Wouldn't recommend. Absolutely delightful waiter! Will return.“

“There used to be a different indian restaurant in the space, but it’s under new ownership now and the food is delicious! They are always so friendly and the ambiance is perfect for dining in. Don’t skip the momos! Will be my go-to spot for indian and nepalese food moving forward.“

“Noe Indian Cuisine is top notch in every way! We stopped here for our lunch during our bachelorette weekend with six of us, and we were in a hurry to get to our next activity. They took our orders right away, brought the drinks and food quickly, and all of it tasted incredibly delicious, hot, and fresh. Not only that, but they brought all the boxes we needed too. Honestly, this is the best and speediest service I have ever seen at a sit down restaurant. If I'm ever back in San Francisco, I will be coming back!“

“Had lunch with my family today
Just want to share my experience
A very warm welcome with a pleasant smile 😍
It was a table for 7, for a small get together
The the service was great, there was no disappointment
About the food I really have no words as everything was the best, chicken xacuti , prawns curry, naan , chicken lollipops
I really enjoyed all the dishes. This was much beyond my expectations.
I would definitely recommend this to anyone“

“Restaurant with good ambience, classy decor and beautiful bold art on the walls. The staff is extremely attentive and friendly. But most importantly the food was fantastic. The Vegetarian Coconut Curry and the Paneer Tiki Masala are AMAZING. We literally licked our plates clean. (No shame!).“

“Such a great dining experience. The chutneys are made fresh every morning and you can taste the freshness. Some of my favorite dishes were the vegetable pakoda and chicken biriyani. DB is one of the nicest servers, making sure that the spice level and food suites your needs. Highly recommend for solid Indian food in the city.“

“Tara Indian Cuisine is the best I have tried!! The people are super friendly and fun, the food is amazing ( my personal favorite on the menu is the kheer) not crowded and portions are amazing. Amazing experience both eating in person and ordering to go. I highly recommend 🤩.“

“One of the best Indian places in SF. Food is so good, and easy on stomach. Dishes are curated, Jackfruit tacos are a must. Never had something like this, Dal was also very good. We had a great time enjoying our meal. Servers were amazing, special shout out to Pooja, she was amazing and gave us great recommendations. We also spoke to Chef, who was very friendly and shared the same“

“extremely bad tasting food and bizzare combinations....miffed at kichadi like biryani with no flavour and being served with aam ka achar....god knows how this restaurant got Michelin star rating ....Shame on the chefs and the owners for ripping off the customers with overpricing of the food for poor service, absence of any ambience or decor“

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

“Rose Indian is super delicious. Everything was really tasty and well done. Papadam and chutneys came with the meal and I ordered Mixed Pickles, Coconut Vegetable Curry and Roti. The Curry was complex and very flavorful and paired wonderfully with the Roti, which was also fantastic. Loved the Mixed Pickle and Chutneys and the Papadam was light and crispy without being too oily. Really impressed by everything here. Menu is very clearly labeled with vegan entrees and there are a lot of them. Great service as well. Definitely going back soon.“

“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 is a very cozy place with good ambiance, good food and great service.
I had madrasi chicken and it was very creamy and spicy. My spouse had malai kofta, it had a flavor of sweet and spice. For breads we had Naans, garlic and chilly cheese, they were very soft!“

“Fast, friendly service. Good for families with kids. Everything we tried was delicious! The Tandoori Fish was a standout. Moist, charred, spicy… Amazing! All their food is halal. They have vegan options as well. There’s something for everyone. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Chaska Restaurant serves a really nice paneer naan that’s soft, fluffy, and stuffed with flavorful, spiced paneer. The combination of buttery naan and rich paneer makes it a delicious and indulgent treat that pairs perfectly with their curries. A must-try for paneer lovers and anyone looking to elevate their Indian meal!“

“I attended a birthday dinner here and had the most delicious Indian food ever in my life. everything I tried was amazing, including the mango lassi. the staff was super nice even though we stayed for almost 3 hours talking loudly. they even gave us mango ice cream at the end!“

“All is good Food and Service“

“food overall is fantastic. really tasty.
however GF naan is absolutely not safe for celiac. I've tried on three different occasions and suffered gluten exposure symptoms three times. very tasty though.
if they can start preparing their GF naan in a safe way without contamination id come here all the time.“

“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.“

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

“I will recommend you to check this restaurant i have been there more than 10 times since they open i really appreciate that they had maintained the same quality and quantity of food. Really nice place to enjoy indian food in the city. Excellent service staff is doing a great job especially for the service. Hope that they will make the same delicious food in the future its my favorite place to visit if i wanna taste the indian specially their lunch combos are the best in the city love it. Will see be back soon“

“Three food, really liked the lamb curry and chicken tea masala and the friendly staff“

“We were looking for a south India restaurant near Milbrae as we didn’t want to drive south or east just for dosa. We found this restaurant in Burlingame which is not far from Milbrae/Airport. We were skeptical but start from the service, food everything was top notch. We ordered dosa and Andhra Chicken Curry, we asked for spicy and it was just awesome. Highly recommended if you are staying near the Airport area.“

“Food is good. Love the place and people are good too“

“Amazing!! Enjoyed our dinner very much! Chicken was so tender. The flavor was amazing. Definitely will eat here again!“

“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.“

“We’ve moved to different parts of SF and have searched high and low for Indian restaurants that could live up to Tilak. We’ve come close but Tilak is really in a league of its own. The butter chicken is so rich and flavorful, hands down the best in SF. Our favorites are the butter chicken and the biryani, which comes topped with strings of sweet caramelized onions. We alwayslook forward to going back.“

“Great and delicious food awsome service and great quantinty and quality with desi taste its a place to had a food blast....... ...“

“Excellent food and friendly service!!!“

“Excellent pizza, will try again. Pizza crust is authentic, masala is fresh.“

“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!“

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

“The food! The spinach paneer was delicious & the chicken Tikka Masada had a nuanced spicing that was scrumptious! The mint sauce had a nice bite and the tamarind sauce was yummy. The clayoven thali for two is an incredible value.“

“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 ���“

“It’s was aww❤️ delicious food 🍲“

“You go to this kind of places for the love of food.... and it does delivers. Its a very sketchy street, not to be alone in the dark. But the food is incredible (had goat curry with garlic naan). Bathroom? dont ask. Higine? Dont know... but flavor... superb“

“Great Sunset neighborhood Indian/Pakistani restaurant. Friendly service. Accommodates my spice shy palate. Recently introduced thali lunch boxes perfect for single diners. Reasonable prices.“

“Since I can’t be in India that was the best I could have done!“

“Great Sunset neighborhood Indian/Pakistani restaurant. Friendly service. Accommodates my spice shy palate. Recently introduced thali lunch boxes perfect for single diners. Reasonable prices.“

“This was my second time bringing friends here and my second time interacting with Gobi. I really absolutely recommend making this place a part of your visit to the Bay and if you live here and haven't eaten here yet, hurry up and try it!“

“I ordered takeout from NEWA. The food was excellent! The paneer tikka masala was super good. We ordered the spicy, and were humbled but honestly that’s what you’re looking for from an Indian/nepalese restaurant. The vegetable momos were unlike any momos I’ve had before but were super flavorful, with great texture & came with a punchy dipping sauce. Definitely have to order from them again!!“
