Lakeside Indian Cuisine Bar and Grill

The girlfriend and I have made it a mission to try every Indian restaurant in the Yuba Sutter area. With such a large Indian community here, we’re blessed with plenty of great options, so we were excited to finally check Lakeside Indian Cuisine off our list.

The first thing we noticed was the pricing, noticeably higher than other local spots, in some cases nearly double. We figured maybe the food or service would justify it, so we went in with an open mind.

When we sat down, however, the waitress kept steering us toward different (and pricier) items, almost like a car salesperson trying to upsell. It felt a little pushy. In the end, we ordered Chicken Tikka Masala, Shahi Paneer with a garlic naan, plus samosas and Paneer Pakora on the side.

The samosas ended up being the highlight of the meal, crisp, flavorful, and paired with some of the best chutneys I’ve ever had. The Paneer Pakora was different from what we’re used to but still decent, while the naan came out a little dry. Unfortunately, both the Chicken Tikka Masala and Shahi Paneer were swimming in oil, more than the usual richness you expect with these dishes, to the point where it was a bit hard to enjoy.

Overall, it wasn’t a bad experience, but it didn’t really win us over either. We didn’t hate it, but we didn’t love it. We’ll probably give it another shot down the line and update our thoughts if things improve.

Great restaurant with amazing food, highly recommended!

Worst buffet I think I've ever had...its dark and cold food and the girl stares at you the whole time while you eat making you feel uncomfortable

Lakeside Indian Cuisine was great! Butter chicken was delicious, samosas were wonderful and the service was kind and friendly from Nancy! She helped answer questions and even went as far to ask everyone’s name. That’s kindness at its best and I felt like she was thankful to have met us which is extremely rare these days. Thanks for a great family dinner Nancy!

Our second time visiting and it won't be the last! Such delicious food and Nancy was very welcoming & accommodating. Highly recommend 👌

Prawns not deveined. We got the shrimp curry and husband counted we got 5 shrimp in it whereas we would've hoped to get 7-8 for a $17 dish.

Outdoor seating

Between 2 people we were full off the shrimp curry + cilantro naan + roti.

BTW the roti was not the sweet soft kind. It actually looked just like the naan.

Lakeside Indian Cuisine Bar and Grill offers an exceptional dining experience. The chicken tikka masala is a standout dish, bursting with flavor, while the coconut chicken being equally as good. For dessert, the gulab jamun—spongy homemade cheese balls soaked in honey rose syrup—was a unique and delicious finish to our meal. The service was attentive and friendly, making for a pleasant evening. Don’t miss the garlic naan; it’s the perfect accompaniment to the rich dishes. Highly recommended!

I paid 48 dollars for 2 order of lamb curry and one order of Naan. 4 small pices of lamb with each order. They said it comes with rice they send enough rice for possibly one person if that. What a rip off. Curry has way too much oil spices are burnt. 10/10 do not recommend. Attempt a curry yourself it will turn out better.
