I only had several hours in Gilroy today and I was so glad I chose BanRasiya for our lunch. Amazing, delicious Indian food, probably some of the best I've had. We got the non-veg thali meal and chole bhature, and every component was amazing. And our host was super welcoming and happy to explain everything to us, just a great experience overall.
Went in not expecting much but very curious because of the ‘not so common’ Indian dishes on the menu. Pleasantly surprised by the casual cafe vibe where one can spend a good amount of time, working, having great options for drinks/eats though we didn’t try those.
Litti chokha is a regional dish that you wouldn’t find commonly in Indian restaurants, nor the bedmi kachori. Both were good. Thali is a generous portion.
