45 Best Indian Restaurants near Mill Valley

“Had just arrived in San Francisco, and hit the road heading to Sonoma for a wedding this weekend. Looking for a place to have lunch and we found Avatars on line. So, we decided to try it, and we are glad we did. Our meals were cooked fresh to order and they were delicious! Friendly staff and a place we will fondly remember and look forward to trying again on our next trip out here!!“

“Overly priced. Service was excellent, but food not upto the mark. Place and no salt. Quantity for the price, not worth. Took veg thali, appetizer with one less sabzi would have been great… dessert was disappointing, to be honest felt like idli dipped in milk, was so hard“

“First off, the restaurant is beautifully decorated. All our servers were professional and didn't hover. The food is delicious with healthy serving sizes. The price is right. I'll be back.“

“Nepa graciously accommodated our reservation of 15 mixed age revelers. The hospitality and service were top-notch, they allowed for special wines brought in with corkage, and helped pace the meal, which was served family style at our request. Loved the tikka masalas, the naan, chai - everything we ordered. We so appreciated all our gracious servers. We will be back.“

“The food was excellent and mouth watering! The staff, friendly and attentive. I highly recommend.“

“I was here for the AYCE lunch on a slow weekday afternoon and the owner offered me unlimited free chai even though I wasn't doing the buffet and just ordered off the menu. The aloo naan and mango lassi were delightful and the service is so pleasant and prompt. This is my new go to!“

“Delicious lunch buffet . The server - Fabi was so kind and offered us chai tea and mango lassi. We came late for lunch and they were so patient with us and we had a fabulous meal and didn’t feel rushed. I recommend 100% this long existed neighbourhood restaurant (25 years old).“

“Have been here a few times now, and Tiya has been consistent with the quality of food and service. I ended up taking their tasting menu everytime so can only comment to those .. and they never disappointment. Being a person of Indian origin, I must say that they have done justice to the flavours of India... a modern take on traditional flavours while maintaining the true essence.“

“Food was absolutely phenomenal. Service great and staff friendly. Ate quite alot and didnt have a single bad dish. Naan was on the house, pricing was great anyway. Plenty of vegan gluten and dairy free options. 5 stars my new favorite location“

“My family and I had an amazing experience at Sunset Indian Cuisine last night. We love trying new places and this was the one which didn't disappointed us. The ambiance was cozy for a relaxed dinner.
The food we had was so delicious. We started with the noodles, which was amazing with less oil. The Juicy Chicken Momo with chutney on the side was incredible. We also ordered Garlic naan, which was soft and warm, Tandoori chicken, Chicken curry, everything was perfect. The service was perfect with friendly and attentive waiter who was knowledgeable about the menu.
We'll definitely be back to try more of their Indian and Nepalese dishes, and we highly recommend this place to others !“

“The combination of cultural food here is great. Some of the best Indian food I've ever had combined with some unique items from Nepal such as dumplings that seem similar to something you would find at a dim sum restaurant. Overall, the food was outstanding, including high quality sag lamb and great naan bread too.
This is a family restaurant and clearly the people running it care very deeply about providing great service and great food.
Prices are very reasonable too. We had an appetizer, two main courses, and one drink each for a total of $68 before tip.“

“Excellent made to order Momo’s. I can’t wait to return!“

“Hey there foodie friends, Guess what? I just had the most delicious and authentic North Indian food during my visit to San Francisco! I never expected to find such yummy flavors in the USA. From buttery naan to spicy curries, my taste buds were dancing with joy! If you ever get the chance, you HAVE to try it out. Trust me, you won't be disappointed! Keep on adventuring and trying new things!“

“Had a great dinner at Copra. Food was great - we had the gunpowder goli vadai, thattukadai fried chicken, masala dosai, Dindigal biryani and dessert. The biryani was a little mild, but rest all very good. We all really enjoyed the dessert especially - gods own coconut variation. My only complaint is that the lighting is way too dim and low that it gives a headache.“

“I had a great experience. The server was probably busy and the one who accommodated me was actually doing dishes. Later, both of them helped me pick a palate. Jhol momo’s jhol was a bit thick for my taste but it did taste wonderful. Very good atmosphere, very good service and tasty food.“

“Of all the Indian restaurants in the Bay Area that I tried, this restaurant has the best food imo. I discovered this place by chance on the way to Napa. After having a full meal, I ordered another meal for takeout because the food was so good. I've been here twice now. It's exceptionally good.“

“One of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had!
Staff were beyond warm and welcoming; they shared their culture with us alongside their cuisine.
The butter chicken, mango lassi, gol gappa, chai, and everything else was perfect and in great portion sizes.
10/10, will eat again“

“The menu covers both Indian and Nepalese dishes. We ordered Tandoori Chicken Kebab, Mutton Kebab, Dal Makhani, Chicken Momos, and Naan. The tandoori chicken and mutton kebabs had a nice smokiness and rich meatiness. The restaurant is also willing to adjust spice levels based on your preference, which is a plus. The chicken momos had a juicy filling and a good texture. The Dal Makhani—a butter-rich lentil dish—was creamy and flavorful. The naan was a bit thick; it would have been better if it were slightly thinner and puffier. We also tried the Nepalese beer, but it wasn’t as good as expected. Overall, the service was pleasant, and the atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming.“

“This truly is the best Indian food i’ve ever had. I used to live a couple streets away, and would frequent this restaurant. Every time, the food was consistent, fresh, and flavorful. Tara Indian provides good sized portions, and they don’t skimp out on the meat and potatoes like a lot of other Indian restaurants i’ve tried. A few months ago I moved out of state, and I have not been able to find anything that even compares to Tara Indian. I miss dining here, and look forward to coming back when I visit SF.“

“Not the best Ive had, Royal indian on uber eats still beats the butter chicken. The pistachio Kulfi was amazing and the service was very good. We had roti, naan, butter chicken and rice. I will be back here for another dinner and try some of the other things on the menu.“

“Taj is excellent. We order from here all the time. Mainstays like tikka masala are great, as are vegetarian options, such as baingan bhartha or saag paneer. The naan is also very tasty. Highly recommend the tandoori salmon or shrimp curry if you’re looking for a seafood option. It’s all good! Super nice staff is a plus.“

“Really good Nepalese momo and chwomin there. Recommend everyone to give this a try“

“I went for a birthday dinner celebrating my partner and we were a food sensitive, time restrictive, six person loud group. Rose's has an extensive vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free menu! They boasted that almost any vegetarian curry could be made vegan and they were very clear about dishes that didn't contain gluten or cross contamination. We ordered a lot of food and dishes, had a few people order late due to traffic, and watched the restaurant go through what we later learned was 120 orders between take out and dine in. We had to leave about an hour in and hadn't gotten food aside from appetizers so the host allowed us to convert things to take out and come back for them later. They were so understanding and we were expecting push back but they were incredibly apologetic. We came back about 2 1/2 hours later and our food was hot, they let us have a table again, they even remade the naan and let us take home the extras! Then they brought out free rice pudding as a thank you for patience (which we totally didn't expect because we were the ones being inconvenient) and then when we sang happy birthday to my partner they quickly brought out vegan ice cream with a candle and sang! Above and beyond, a night we won't forget and hospitality that came from extremely passionate people. Thank you so much for your generosity and kindness and patience with our big birthday group <3. We split the bill between four people and it was only about $40-$50 each which is absolutely so shocking for the volume of food we ate! Everything was delicious, their specialty naan are all wonderful, and they've got some excellent fusion items too. Go outside your normal order for this place; you'll be absolutely amazed.“

“This is the most delicious Indian food I have ever had. The time and care taken to make this food shows in the taste and presentation. The atmosphere is near fine dining but the price is not. The service is impeccable but most of all the food is excellent.
Come here and eat!“

“This place made the tastiest veggie curry dish - I asked for the Channa Masala extra spicy and they did such a great job! Their garlic naan is very good too. I am not an expert or Indian food aficionado. However, I love the taste of their food and the girl I spoke with over the phone was very sweet!“

“I had their lamb roganjosh, aloo Gobi, and chicken chettinand. People might say Pakwan is the place to go for good Indian food in the city, but I was thoroughly impressed with what I ate at Keeva. This is not watered down gringofied Indian food. Absolutely loved the lamb roganjosh, the cauliflower and potatoes were very well spiced, and while I personally didn't like the chettinand, I understand the flavor profile and what that dish is. You're missing out on really delicious Indian food if you're not eating here.“

“Lunch buffet is really good and at a fair price.“

“The food here is absolutely delicious! It’s a bit on the pricey side, but totally worth it for the amazing flavors and the amount of food. The saag paneer and cheese naan are my absolute favorites — I can’t get enough! I’ve been three times now, and it never disappoints. Highly recommend!“

“The staff was so nice!! We had 2 different dishes plus drinks. It was right after the game so it was nice and quiet for us and not a crowd at all.
The naan was delicious!! The garlic naan was really good but the onion naan was even better!!
The mango lassi was delicious 😋

Thank you for the service.“

“The best Indian vegetarian food! Organic and amazing seasoning.“

“I got Karahi Gosht and it was authentic and flavorful. Serving quantity was decent as well. I live in the South Bay and most places over there don't get this dish right. 5* from me, for the Karahi Gosht and Naan. Service understandably took some time because they make it fresh and piping hot. And I went there in between performances of standup comedy at Cobb's next door.“

“We got chhole and pav bhaji. I found the spices and oils were not over the top which is amazing. Bedmi poori with chhole was not oily at all but at the same it it was soft and tasty. Felt like when mom makes something restraunt style. Dahi puri chat was also nice.“

“I Definitely recommend their momos. its super tasty and juicy.“

“Support excellent food and a longtime San Francisco tradition!“

“Just stopped in as a business owner staying at the Clancy hotel up the street and found this place open. They were amazingly open towards helping me with my food choices since I haven’t been always open to it. I wanted simple, not too spicy and they nailed it. I got a great simple chicken appetizer followed by an easy lamb dish with potatoes. Holy moly! She came back with a small dessert on the house.Don’t expect a freebie when you come but I always love it when I’m appreciated. Give these guys a chance. They are special. They now have cocktails too. I happened to stumble in on the week they got their license.“

“Su personal y su comida está deliciosa y accesible sus precios están bastante cómodos está muy rica su comida“

“I had the Chicken Tikka Masala and Aloo Naan. It was very good I recommend this restaurant.“

“Excellent food and friendly service!!!“

“This is our second time or so ordering from here. Absolutely delicious ! Vada pav (with three sauces) is stunning and also the Egg Hakka noodles with Schezwan sauce which was perfect! Takes me back to my childhood in India. Authentic, high quality and consistent ! Will order again“

“We had a great meal here on a quiet Tuesday night, and I’d love for more people to know what a gem this spot is! The food was tasty — we had a variety of vegetarian dishes — and the service was super friendly. I loved the calming water feature and a lack of screens in the dining room; the presence of screens seems to be becoming the norm at more casual restaurants. Looking forward to coming here regularly!“

“Ive been eating at Shalimar for 27 years-I have eaten 100 if not 1000s of Indian places globally including NY LA UK DE GE etc. THERE IS NO BETTER PLACE. I had it tonight and sometimes its like how can it get better than that one time and then it is. The Tikka is unique and 1000% its own recipe apart from any I have ever found. Its simple but mega flavor, not overtly creamy a little oily but it the Tikka I compare all others too. Now I have had Indonesian that dresses up dishes like no other but for straight up dishes its the jam. Also the oven baked tandooris are over the top good too. Too bad Im moving finally from SF. This place is very much a part of me and my history, all the old times with friends (even the old Polk location)....all the conversations with staff, so friendly and nice. It will be missed!“

“It’s was aww❤️ delicious food 🍲“

“Great Sunset neighborhood Indian/Pakistani restaurant. Friendly service. Accommodates my spice shy palate. Recently introduced thali lunch boxes perfect for single diners. Reasonable prices.“
