11 Best Indian Restaurants in Folsom

“I could eat their idli and sambar every single day. I was blown away by the variety of options on their menu. Highly recommend! There’s also an Indian grocery store just a short drive from here, if you’re looking for ingredients/supplies. 😄“

“The food here is really delicious and comes out fresh and hot. The service was great. We were offered water refills, asked how everything was and if there was anything else we wanted, often. As of October 2024 I would recommend keeping your party to 4 or less people or ordering to-go because the tables/booths are fairly small. The place was very clean inside. I would definitely recommend this place.“

“Honestly couldn’t be better. The food is flavorful and the portions are generous. We eat primarily vegetarian: masala dosa, palak paneer, and malai kofta. The kofta in particular is amazing— they literally melt in your mouth, like little clouds of flavor. I don’t think you could go wrong here. The naan is fluffy, the dosa dough was so thin and light but generous on the filling… I really could go on. Not to mention every server we’ve had was so sweet and eager to answer questions and help.

Eat here please so that they are a huge success— they deserve it.“

“The dosa’s are awesome. Additionally you have to try Sukha gosht“

“I had the pleasure of dining at this Indian restaurant for their buffet, and it was an outstanding experience. The Chana Masala, Chicken Curry, and Mutton Curry were all incredibly flavorful and delicious. And, of course, the sweets were a perfect way to end the meal. I highly recommend this restaurant for its mouthwatering food and great selection. Five stars!“

“I taste Dosa only ,Taste is very good and delicious. I never such taste earlier.“

“I will 100% come back. Excellent food, perfect portions, and reasonably priced. Staff sweet and professional.“

“Glad to see authentic South Indian Chettinad flavors made available in Folsom. I get the same great taste as in their Pleasanton, Santa Clara and Sunnyvale restaurants. Bright ambience with sufficient menu choices for vegetarians, meat & seafood eaters alike. Service is great too.“

“The proprietor exhibited exceptional hospitality by extending a complimentary dining experience for my family and me, allowing us to sample the culinary offerings prior to placing a catering order. While the initial preparation of the lamb seekh exhibited excessive saltiness, the chef promptly rectified the issue by preparing a second batch, though it still retained a slightly elevated salt content for my palate. The meal encompassed an assortment of dishes, including naan, korma, butter chicken, lamb biryani, fritters, and mango lassi. I highly recommend them and encourage you to communicate any preferences or concerns regarding the taste of your dish. They will be more than happy to remake it to your satisfaction.

“The food here is Amazing, best Indian food I’ve had in the US or UK…hands down! We are not vegetarian, but none of us miss the meat at all when we are here. The Paneer tikka masala and veggie korma are wonderful! This is a family run restaurant, friendly and nice atmosphere, clean, good quality food. The parents (owners/ chef) and the daughter who takes the orders and serves are all so nice. You will love your dinner here!“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Red Hot Chilli Pepper in Folsom, and it was an absolute delight from start to finish. Snehal, the manager, has truly worked wonders in creating a unique and vibrant dining experience. What sets this place apart is not just its Indo Chinese cuisine but also the warm and inviting atmosphere that permeates the entire establishment. Being the only Indo Chinese restaurant in the Sacramento area, Red Hot Chilli Pepper has carved a niche for itself, and I must say, it's a niche well worth exploring. The moment I stepped in, I was greeted by a welcoming vibe that instantly made me feel at home. One standout aspect of my visit was the impeccable service provided by Praveen, an exceptional waiter who went above and beyond to ensure my dining experience was nothing short of extraordinary. His fast and friendly service added to the overall positive impression of the restaurant. Now, let's talk about the food--a true highlight of my visit. I started with the TROPICAL "LYCHEE" MARTINI, a delightful concoction that blended the sweetness of lychee with the kick of vodka. It set the perfect tone for the culinary journey that followed. The Chilli Chicken, ordered at medium spice level, was an absolute winner. Cooked to perfection with just the right amount of spices, it left my taste buds dancing with joy. Following that, I indulged in some vegetarian momos that were a burst of flavor and texture. The softness of the momo paired with the delicious filling made it a memorable dish. The Calcutta Chicken transported me straight to the streets of Calcutta. The authenticity of the dish was unparalleled, and I appreciated the chef's dedication to preserving traditional flavors. To wrap up my meal, I opted for the detox tea--a refreshing and healthy choice that perfectly concluded the culinary journey. The attention to detail in both food and beverages truly sets Red Hot Chilli Pepper apart. The ambiance of the restaurant is another noteworthy aspect. It's evident that careful thought has gone into creating an atmosphere that complements the dining experience. The result is an ambiance that enhances the joy of savoring each dish. In conclusion, my experience at Red Hot Chilli Pepper was nothing short of fantastic. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to indulge in more of their delectable offerings. Kudos to Snehal, Praveen, and the entire team for creating a culinary haven in Folsom!“
