26 Best Indian Restaurants in Fremont

“I'm always on the lookout for Malvani and Goan restaurants, and Mumbai Chowk is by far the best find!

We tried the fish thali and Malvani chicken, and both dishes were absolutely delicious. The flavors were authentic and perfectly prepared.

The owner, Abdul, is incredibly warm and friendly, happily customizes meals to our taste, and personally checks in after meals to ensure everything is perfect.

The restaurant itself is spacious and spotlessly clean, creating a welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend this place for anyone craving flavorful Malvani food!“

“Delicious and Fresh! Every dish at Garam Mirchi tastes homemade with fresh ingredients and authentic spices. The paneer fried rice and the Hakka noodles had a great smoky flavor. Definitely recommended!“

“Idly Express is a great spot for South Indian food lovers, especially if you’re craving soft, fluffy idlis and crispy dosas. The food is fresh, flavorful, and served relatively quickly. Their chutneys and sambar are well-spiced and complement the dishes perfectly.

Service is generally good and Pricing is reasonable for the quality of food offered.“

“Food is amazing, service is very good. Sameer was very helpful and quickly responded to our questions“

“Always good and on time...“

“Keeku Da Dhaba serves some amazing chicken kababs—juicy, buttery, and packed with flavor! The food is definitely worth it, but the wait time can be a bit long. Fortunately, they accept phone orders, which makes things more convenient. Overall, a great spot for delicious, flavorful food. Will be back to try more!“

“Best Pani Puri in California Bay Area ??
Gobi and Aloo paratha are also good options
If you feel like eating rice, try their Kadhi Chaval!

Important call outs
Reach there before 7 pm for a peaceful meal.
Naan is really bad
Did not like their Kachori, Masala puri and sev puri either“

“Great taste and good quantity. The ambience could be better but unbeaten taste.

Edit: lately the masala in the dosa is reduced to bare minimum. My last order barely had any masala in it. Just a spoon full in the entire dosa.“

“Authentic Kerala Malayali food in the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond! Karikku Cafe catered a feast at a celebratory event and all items were excellent! Aviyal, Erisseri, Kalan, Sambar, palada prathaman, Kichadi, Pachadi, Kichadi and so many items! We loved it! We plan to cater for our Onam Sadhya soon!“

“Absolute casual m great food with excellent service Food was so delicious with great portions 💕😘“

“It was our first time to go to this restaurant. The food was good, cooked fresh and hot. We liked the food very much and our server was wonderful. Looking forward to go again. #vegnchatcuisine #papihanandy #review #fremont #california #vegetarian #chholebhature #thali #vegthali #restaurant“

“I’ve been coming at Chaat Bhavan for years, and the service has always been friendly, quick, and professional. The staff are polite and hardworking—even during busy hours, they manage to serve everyone efficiently.

Last evening while dining with my parents, we experienced something very unethical. It was past closing time, and the staffs were simply doing their job requesting the customers in a calm and a polite manner, but the table next to us spoke very rudely to the staffs. Let’s not forget that restaurants have to close and clean up, and it's basic courtesy as a customer to respect that.

Chaat Bhavan continues to be packed for a reason — great food, solid portions, and hardworking staff. I highly recommend trying it yourself instead of judging based on one exaggerated complaint.“

“Food was fantastic! Portions are small allowing for a variety of foods for breakfast. The ambience is like a basic cafe with minimal service. My only sore point is the pricing given the ambience. The cost per dosa or idly here is slightly higher than other South Indian restaurants in Bay Area. This is definitely pricey for the low key ambience offered“

“Food is very delicious“

“Amazing food. . fresh cooking every time. friendly atmosphere“

“We were here on a Friday to pick up pizza and we were debating whether we should eat at the restaurant or take it home and eat it. The sitting area is big but it seems mostly empty so we decided to take it home. The pizza is in great taste, as we ordered the chicken tikka masala and achari chicken pizza large size. The service is great, good taste good too. There's lots of free parking available and I feel they should have more opportunities for people to sit there and eat... Maybe they can add something to their ambience that can tempt people to sit there and eat.“

“I love having my breakfast here of Idli, dosa, sambhar, vada etc. which is authentically prepared and is fresh, tasty and delicious. The chutneys are also very well prepared. They have vegetarian and vegan options. I love their coffee too.“

“great food ,great hospitality, we love it.!!!!!“

“Wish I took a photo.
Dhai golgappas amazing.
The pani puris were to die for. Definitely try the pineapple and mango.
I did knock off a point for the chole because the gravy tasted like it was chili puree. I love spicy but it was hard to taste the massala over the sukhi or dry chili taste.

Everything about this place is amazing. Just the chana needs a little bit of work.“

“A place to eat which we visit the most!! Very friendly staff!! Delicious food!! Make us feel we eat in India!!���“

“Great ambiance, good service! We went here for Valentine's Day, and the experience was terrific. The place was packed, yet the food was served quickly. They did take us a bit to sit down, but that's okay. We ordered terrific soy chops. Aloo Tikki and Dahi Save Puri were great. For dinner, we had paneer balti and veg jaipuri. Now, I'm waiting on the chocolate sizzled and gulab jamun for dessert. They should be good, too.“

“First time going there in person to sit and enjoy the dinner after few years of picking up my order. The food and drinks came as per our choice and extremely fresh. The service and food was exceptional. Went there with my teenage son who's a picky eater and another friend who's the same..both of them were amazed with the flavors and decided that this is their number one choice in Fremont from now on.“

“Hands down the best Gujarati Thali in whole of SFO. My in laws took us there recently during our vacation to USA.

Very authentic Gujarati thali, service was wonderful, prices are reasonable.

A must try place when in SFO!“

“My Experience of Day 1 of this Restaurant: This is a Takeaway place as of now. A Very Good Biryani I must say. I selected Goat Biryani & picked two to go. One with Pulav & the other with Biryani rice. Both were succulent & good! Apparently it will be a sit down restaurant down the road. My Good Friend Ram Bangalore texted me & asked me to join him to check it out & we both drove to Fremont today even to get Biryani. I must say I Enjoyed My pick of Biryani. As a Keralite from India in America I just love GOAT MEAT & the Biryani at BHIMAVARAM RUCHULU (now that is a mouth full of a Name)….as Mouth Watering as their Biryani. I hope to sit down in their restaurant some day & Enjoy the Biryani even more. All the Very Best Guys & Congratulations!!! I am a Big Believer in Small Business as a CPA.“

“so good food! I like desert delicious!“

“Nice place for evening snacks and quick dinner. Their dosas r yummy and veg biryani is my favourite.“
