“Some of the best Indian food I've had in the bay area. First, I've got to mention dessert. The kheer was amazing. The fried shrimp appetizer is great - crispy without too much batter. The sauces with the papadums are rich and thick and flavorful. The Manchurian gobi was good but a bit saucier than I prefer. I can't wait to go back and try more things.“

“We hosted our baby shower at the Grant Hall, and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The hall was spacious, elegant, and beautifully lit, creating the perfect atmosphere for our celebration.
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!“

“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!“

“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.“

“Phenomenal food and top-tier service for large groups! We hosted a 10-person farewell dinner here for a colleague, with teammates traveling in from all over. Despite staggered arrival times, the service was seamless and the atmosphere was perfect for a celebration.
Every single thing we ordered—from the appetizers and traditional dishes to the desserts and drinks—was excellent. Our diverse, international group spent hours laughing and enjoying the space. Jashin gave our team an unforgettable send-off night. We will definitely be back!“

“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.“

“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.“

“Nice pure veg Marathi restaurant in Sunnyvale! We enjoyed the kothambir vadi, khandeshi vangi bharit and veg kohlapuri (this one is v spicy!); along with bhakri and roti. The tandoori chai served here is very hot and refreshing.
Personally I think the restaurant could benefit from improving the ambience - like using better utensils instead of the bamboo cups and plastic spoons for serving to attract more customers. The portion sizes for the main dishes are small in comparison to other local Indian restaurants, but can understand that could be owing to inflation and authentic prep.“

“They have amazing buffet. Halal meat is their speciality. Being vegetarian, I won’t be able to justify the meat options. But Vegetarian options were amazing. They have different spice level they can prepare you food with. The place was quite and clean.“
“One of the best Puri if you are planning to make pani puri at home. There is a huge difference in the quality and taste compared to buying from any Indian shop. The quality is also better than many restaurants. Try here and share your feedback“

“This is a North Indian/Punjabi-style food truck in the Santa Clara area, one of several Indian food trucks around here. When I stopped by in the afternoon, it was fairly quiet, with just a few people around and a small outdoor seating area.
I ordered dahi bhalla papdi chaat, which was fresh, tangy, savory, and spicy, with good-quality yogurt and chutneys. I also tried two Punjabi-style pinni laddus, which tasted homemade, rich, and packed with ghee, nuts, and other hearty ingredients.
Overall, a nice little spot if you’re craving Punjabi food or Indian street-style chaat. Worth trying if you’re in the area.“

“Visited all the way from Manteca, I wanted to express my sincere appreciation for the outstanding experience during my recent visit. This place offers a truly unique and welcoming atmosphere; the outdoor seating was particularly delightful. Each dish was a culinary masterpiece, perfectly complementing the superb service from attentive staff. The thoughtful inclusion of a prayer room was an especially impressive detail. I'm already spreading the word and eagerly anticipate my next visit. Thank you for creating such an exceptional environment.“
“This is the same Bangalore Cafe as the Santa Clara location! Used to come here all the time because their chaat was unmatched. So happy that they’re back now in this location, and can confirm that the quality of the food is exactly the same. Go check them out!“

“This restaurant has been a hidden gem for over two decades. I've been coming here since my childhood, and even today, the food tastes just as amazing as I remember.
They serve authentic Indian flavors, and their thali is one of the best in the Bay Area. Whenever I'm in Sunnyvale, I make it a point to stop by for a meal. The prices are unbeatable for the quality and taste they offer.
Everything on the menu is outstanding, and it's impressive how they've maintained their loyal customer base over the years.
During my recent visit, I ordered Papri Chaat, Undhiyu, Pizza Paratha, and the Puri Thali. Everything was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The Papri Chaat was especially delicious, and the Aloo Matar Sabzi was simply excellent.
If you're looking for authentic Indian food with great taste, generous portions, and reasonable prices, this place is definitely worth a visit.“

“The spot has yummy large dosas. I visited around 10 AM on Sunday and it was pretty crowded.
The dosas are larger than what I have seen in other spots and are pretty tasty too.
They got my order wrong and were pretty prompt with coming in and leaving as soon after taking the order.
It's a pretty busy spot, ideally best for groups of 4. Parking is tight too, you might need to find street parking at peak times--which seems to be 10 AM.
Overall, would come back for food, not for service“

“Fantastic experience at Once Upon a Dosa! I’ll break my review down into a few simple categories.
Food: very very tasty chicken keema dosa! Chai was also very nice and piping hot as it should be on a chilly day.
Service: top notch service. Friend ordered the OG roast Dosa and didn’t realize it came with no potatoes. Upon simple explanation, and at no extra charge, they gave us a serving of potatoes for his dosa to upgrade it since we had a misunderstanding.
Price: pricey by my southern standards but for SF, not bad at all especially considering the portions. Plus the drinks were not expensive at all which was icing on the cake.
Would 100% recommend for a very tasty quick bite, and excellent friendly service!“
