The food and service were outstanding. Every dish, from the appetizers to the desserts, was delicious and thoughtfully prepared. Our guests thoroughly enjoyed the meal, and we received so many compliments about the food.

We also appreciated how accommodating the team was with our custom food requests to better suit our traditional Indian baby shower. Their attention to detail and willingness to personalize the menu made the event even more special.

Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and we highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a beautiful event space with excellent food and exceptional service.

Thanks to Arun and Manoj, for helping make our celebration so memorable!“

“Unique food truck in Bay Area! This isn’t just a food joint but it’s an experience!

Vegetarian reviewer:
To start with, I am not usually a big fan of too many eggs on my plate, but I thoroughly enjoyed their innovative creations. They have interesting dishes with paneer and chicken as well.

We ordered two dishes-
Leela lasun keema - This dish was intriguing, with cheese, grated egg, and a rich, spicy gravy. The portion size was generous; a single person won’t be able to finish it with just three breads. It was very filling, we took back home the leftover and enjoyed it later with some rotis.

They have another version of this- “kachu” with runny eggs instead of grated eggs.. well thought option!

Volcano egg biryani-
The dish is as interesting as its name suggests. The base is an omelette, and the rice is flavorful with bell peppers, finely chopped veggies, and aromatic spices. The center is with a tomato-based curry. The cheese on the side was amazing, and I loved it.

The spicy guava drink is super refreshing with a playful mix of spice, salt, sourness, and the sweetness of guava. I really enjoyed it!

They have music playing and the place is lit, creating a total vibe for spending time in the evening on a lazy weekend/ after work, or post-workout. The food is pure indulgence and covered our protein requirements with eggs, along with some fat to burn off. Kinda guilt free.

Also, they have games, garba events and other many interesting things going on at different times. Never disappoints!

Ask the owners for their recommendations based on your preferences. They are very nice to talk to and are super passionate about this truck, having brought something they loved from New York to the Bay Area.“

“We ordered catering from Puranpoli for our engagement event, and the overall experience was great. The team was helpful while finalizing the menu and quantities, and they were patient with all our questions and changes.

The food was fresh, flavorful, and had a nice homestyle Maharashtrian taste. The sabudana vada, batata vada, kadai paneer, makai palak, masale bhat, dal, rice, and naan were all enjoyed by our guests. The portions were generous, and everything was packed well for the event.

A special thank you to Sheetal and the team for helping us plan the order for a large gathering.“

“The Dal makhani tasted like I’m back in Delhi. I would recommend pairing that with Garlic Naan. I always do Kothay momos half and half with veg and chicken. And do whatever you may but please don’t skip on their chai-few places that serve chai where you can actually taste the ginger and cardamom.“

“As a repeat customer, I can confidently say that Surmai never misses the mark! Every thali and entree served here is the most authentic Malvani taste you can find in the Bay Area. From the perfectly balanced coastal spices to the incredibly fresh seafood, the quality and flavor remain consistently excellent with every visit. A special shout-out to Trely, who made this visit even better! Trely as always, was attentive, welcoming, and provided top-notch service throughout my meal experience. If you are craving true Konkani cuisine, especially surmai, paplet, kolambi and solkadhi, this is absolutely the spot to go. See you back again soon!“

“My husband and I love coming in for the lunch buffet. It's so delicious!“

“What a nice surprise to find such high quality Indian food at the Great Mall! My husband and I shared a combo (chicken curry boneless) with garlic naan, and an order of samosa. Chicken curry and garlic naan was delicious!! No wait to be seated nor to be served. Go try this before the word gets out and it gets packed! We loved it.“

“Great location and delicious Indian cuisine. Ambience is excellent. Menu covers wide variety of south and North Indian dishes“

“Both Vegetarian and Non-Vegetarian food was delicious. Amit, our server, was probably the most friendly and courteous server I've ever had in my life. He brought us a complementary drink and also a dessert at the end!

Also shout out to Happy, the Chef, for making sure the Spice level was exactly what we asked for, and everything was tasty!“

“We’ve ordered from them twice. Everything was delicious. The presentation was amazing. Even my kids enjoyed it. Especially the chicken kabobs… which my husband loves. They were so flavorful! I definitely recommend them! The owners are so kind and sweet!!! 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“This is my favorite place to eat Indian food in the bay area! And that's saying a lot given the number of Indian restaurants available. I especially love their bhelpuri and paranthas. The food feels home made and is always hot, fresh, comforting, and delicious. The staff is very kind and sweet. Don't miss out.“

“I came here to order a takeaway around 6.30ish.
I got spicy pav bhaji, and tried the new items a vada pav and the dabeli.
They hand a buzzer which will let you know when the order is ready.
The order was ready quickly.
The vada pav was very authentic with the dry chutney powder and the chillies. It was crispy and right amount of spicy.
The dabeli was tangy and sweet and the right combo with the crispy peanuts
The spicy amul pav bhaji was what brought me here.
The pav was loaded with butter and spices.
The bhaji was a bit large quantity and loaded with butter.
The bhaji has little heavy flavor to lavang/elaichi but was good overall.
Definitely gonna be back for the other new items“

“We had been wanting to try Bharat Social’s veggie burger for a long time, and we finally got to try their Veggie Burger, Jain Burger, and Cold Coco. The burgers were fresh, with perfectly crispy patties and well-balanced flavors that make you want to come back again.

The Cold Coco was refreshingly indulgent and authentic - a great choice for anyone who appreciates quality vegetarian food made with attention to detail.

Highly recommend this place for its Cold Coco and what is quite possibly the best Veggie Burger and Jain Burger in the Bay Area.“

“Bday party,ordered chicken 65,Gobi Manchurian,chicken Biryani,noodles,masala chicken sandwich.Kids Best part of cakes,Matcha,lychee,Oreo boba drinks and coffee.must try f.fries!Food n Service 5/5“

“We visited with friends and ordered Tandoori Veg Momo, Avocado Chaat, Garlic Naan, and Butter Chicken. The Tandoori Momo tasted rich and fresh. The Garlic Naan came soft and had a unique flavor. Everything arrived hot and well prepared. We plan to return soon with our office team.“

“Cheerful welcome greeting, seated quickly and attended to throughout a very good meal.“

“🎉 Just had an unforgettable evening at Ettan! Cozy vibes, top-notch service, and every dish was a masterpiece. 🍽 The chef's special? Mind-blowing! 🤯 Whether it's for the ambiance, the flavors, or the amazing staff, Ettan's a must-visit. Left with a full belly and even fuller heart. ❤️ Can't wait to go back! #EttanMagic #FoodieDream #BestDinnerEver“

“1/24/2026

Tandoori Junction
698 W Dana St
Mountain View, CA 94041

We went for lunch on a Saturday, it's at the corner of Dana and Hope streets with parking on Hope and a city lot nearby.

It's a cozy clean table setup with more tables in a back room available. The menu may be limited compared to other places but it has all our favorites. We got the Garlic Naan, Lamb Curry and Chicken Tikka Masala; both spicy. The food took some time to bring out. Both curries were flavorfully spiced with generous amounts of protein and good heat. My Lamb was tender with no bones.

Yet another great Indian restaurant in MTV. We sat next to the kitchen and heard a lot of loud chopping. Good service, value, flavor and portions. Definitely repeatable.“

“Feel good food & atmosphere :)“

“I’ve only had their Dal Tadka and roti. I would give it more than 5 stars if I could. Such homely dal that I could eat it every single day! The roti tastes like the kinds we ate Punjab- whole wheat with a little ghee on it. Highly recommended based on what I’ve had!“

“Overall it was an excellent experience. We had the Sufi Kaju chicken (was good) and butter chicken (was good). For starters we got samosa (ok) and one of the mutton dishes (great). They gave us free chai which was a great touch.

The only wish is that I don’t think the garlic naan hit the spot. It was very basic, not very flavorful.“

“One of the best food I ever had in California.“

“Good to have desi choice in California.“

“If you’re craving authentic, flavorful Pav Bhaji, this place is an absolute gem. The bhaji is rich, buttery, perfectly spiced, and served with soft pav that’s toasted just right. Every bite tastes like true Mumbai street food comfort.

Their catering trays are extremely reasonable in price, and the quality and quantity are both excellent. You genuinely get great value without compromising on taste. Perfect for parties, gatherings, or office events.
I highly recommend this place. If you love Pav Bhaji or want to impress guests with delicious Indian food, this spot should be at the top of your list.“

“great food. good price. very good staff“

“We were visiting from Hawaii for few days in San Jose, and had a fantastic dinner at Jashn. The Avocado Tikki was delicious, and the Beef Bone Marrow Nalli Nihari was rich, tender, and full of flavor. We also loved the Cloud Paneer Saag and Chur Chur naan. The saffron rice stood out too. Every grain was fluffy and separate, always a good sign.

Impeccable service, beautiful atmosphere, and food we would come back for.“

“Very tasty Food...Friendly Staff Good Service 🤗😊“

“Place where you get the best party hall, food and wholesome experience!“

“update July 2026 : they have maintained the same quality of food over the years which is no easy feat. We love getting food picked up from their new retail location. But the website ordering can be simplified. The timings when they are open is also a bit confusing and it seems like it changes often. I was planning on picking up meals there in the evenings and I try to pick up a bit early before the evening 5 pm snacks rush begins. But it looks like the timings are changed again. The website says Not accepting Orders but the UberEats app shows it's available.
They have the delicious food and quality part down but the long wait times for food pickup/ eating-in, the changes in timings and all of that needs to be ironed out.

Older review: Delicious, hygienic food packed in compostable containers. I have tried their order-ahead and pick up option and the food quality has been consistently delicious. The food is not overly indulgent, making for a guilt-free eating out experience. Since the menu is small and made-to-order, it is all freshly made. You cannot have this in a restaurant set-up where most of the food is partially pre-made. Hope they continue making good quality food and serve retail customers.“

“Mr. Chef!! Hope everyone is safe and ok! Always enjoy eating at your restaurant. My wife and I appreciated you taking the time to show is your oils and spices. Your place is a gem. Hope you guys land on your feet. Looking forward to the day you guys can reopen. Best wishes 🙏“

“If you’re looking for the best authentic Nepali cuisine in Sunnyvale, California, The Gurkha Kitchen is a must-visit. This place captures the true essence of Nepali flavors, offering a wide variety of traditional dishes prepared with fresh ingredients and authentic spices. The warm and inviting ambiance, combined with friendly service, makes it a favorite spot for Nepali food lovers. Whether it’s their momos, dal bhat, or signature curries, every dish is a treat for the taste buds. For anyone craving genuine Nepali cuisine, The Gurkha Kitchen is the place to be. Highly recommended for a taste of Nepal!“

“Badoota has the best curated menu for all the non vegetarians . We had ordered Chicken , mutton biryani and chicken ghee rost . In vegetarian avrekayi biryani. All the items very delicious . It definitely took us back home. The meat was very tender and fresh. Thanks for the amazing food🙌🏼“

“Great experience! Food was fresh, served quickly and delicious. Loved the customer service! Will definitely be coming back! Wishing you guys the best!“

“This is a reallly wholesome, family-run Indian vegetarian restaurant. For $18, they have a very tasty all you can eat buffet. They bring to your table some fresh made chapati too. There is a delicious lemon pudding for dessert and also always fresh fruit. If you want some good home cooking, this is the place.“

“We ordered food from Idly Express Milpitas via Uber Eats. Excellent food quality, with good packaging. Everything tasted fresh! Thank you Idly Express!!“

“Forget about Shalimar… forget about Zareens .. forget about Pakwaan …this is the restaurant to eat Desi food . Karachi Level food. Big portions as well. Parking is easy .. front and huge lot in the back .“

“Baba Kitchen is one of the best Nepali food trucks I’ve tried! The food is fresh, flavorful, and tastes just like homemade Nepali cooking. The momo were juicy and perfectly seasoned, and every dish was full of authentic flavors. I love jhol momo. The portions are generous, the prices are reasonable, and the service is friendly and welcoming. If you’re craving authentic Nepali street food, Baba Kitchen is definitely worth visiting. I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“There’s absolutely nothing to complain about when it comes to the dining experience here. Every single dish served is exceptional and bursting with flavor. The chutneys are particularly incredible, with the ginger chutney standing out as a must-try. Whether you decide to try any dosa on the menu, I am absolutely certain that it will be a delightful experience. Overall, it is truly an amazing experience that leaves you wanting to return.“

“curry leaf dosa. my consistent favorite“

“Service was great, prices very reasonable. Food, yum!😋. We will be back! Chili Chicken was so good!“

“Tasty food, family style and friendly service.“

“I recently discovered Chup Chaap and I’m so impressed! This place serves authentic Punjabi dhaba-style cuisine that actually tastes like it came straight from Delhi. Every dish I’ve tried has been exceptional and packed with real flavor.

The Tandoori Chaap is perfectly marinated with an amazing smoky char, the Malai Chaap is incredibly tender, and the Amritsari Naan with Chole has the most generous, satisfying portions. The Tandoori Paneer Tikka is also outstanding—the spice level is perfect and you can taste how much care goes into the preparation.
What I love most is that this isn’t Americanized Indian food. The flavors are bold and authentic, the food is always fresh, and the portions are generous. Plus, the prices are super reasonable for the quality you’re getting.

The service is fast and friendly, and they’re open until midnight every day, which is perfect for late-night cravings. Whether you order delivery, pick up, or eat in, they treat you well.

I’m definitely coming back—already planning my next order! If you want real, authentic North Indian food in the Bay Area, you need to try Chup Chaap. Highly recommend!“

“Very delicious and tasty food. One should try it once.“

“Affordable Michelin-recommended spot in Palo Alto that’s perfect for a casual meal.

Parking was easy with free street parking. The vibe is fast-casual with limited indoor seating, but there’s plenty of outdoor seating with umbrellas, including overflow tables set up along the sidewalk.

You order and pay at the counter, get a number, and the food is brought to your table.

Everything we tried was delicious. The grilled chicken boti sizzler and chicken tikka thali both had incredibly tender, flavorful chicken. The garlic naan was warm and fluffy, and the mango lassi was thick, refreshing, and not overly sweet. Portions were generous for the price.

Fun fact: Zareen’s was founded by Karachi native Zareen Khan, who even bought a house in Menlo Park to rent to her employees at an affordable rate because of Silicon Valley’s high cost of living. It’s easy to see why this flagship location earned Michelin Guide recognition.“

“my first time here I felt the food was surprising good for the look of the location.“
