Friendly staff and a place we will fondly remember and look forward to trying again on our next trip out here!!“

Tandori fish and chicken korma and papadam it was all delicious. I will be back often now . And I just called them and placed order as the restaurants don't have to pay the high costs of grubhub door dash etc. so ours was to go“

“Amazing food at a reasonable price. The sun room is beautiful with tall ceilings and large windows. Norman, the owner, was very kind. Great variety of vegan and vegetarian food with offerings outside of what you find at other places. They also have lunch buffet menu! You can tell this is an authentic place and an old SF staple. Highly recommended and will come back next time I’m in town :)“

“A rather odd place. First of all, the tandoori chicken and the palak paneer were fantastic – the best I’ve ever had, I think. However, the naan (we got plain and garlic) was the worst I have ever had. Think thin, bad pizza dough. The basmati rice was alright. Service was friendly but a bit slow and scattered. The women’s bathroom was dirty enough that I decided to wait until I got back home. The tension on the door to the women’s bathroom was set so high that the door slammed into me quite hard.“

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

“Our daughter found Rose Indian Cuisine on Google Reviews and we were so glad that she did! Great location near the Golden Gate Botanical Gardens. This place was one of the best meals we had during our vacation. We had a cauliflower dish, Gobi Manchurian. Honestly the most delicious cauliflower dish eaten; it was gone before the other appetizers arrived!!! The entrees were also tasty and the naan beyond fabulous. The meal ended with chai tea. Highly recommend dining here for delicious food and spectacular service!!“

“Michelin star, Delicious indian fare.
Appetizers were unique, well presented, tasty with layered unique flavors.
Main dish were off beat except for traditional butter chicken.
Chef Pujan Sarkar was walking around greeting patrons.
Reserve recommend.
Must try if you are around.“

“I had the buffet and it was delicious! I came near the end of the buffet on a Sunday, but the food was still hot with many entree, appetizer, and dessert options. It also comes with naan which is a plus. My server was also nice and gave a run down of the buffet.“

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

“We were here for a late lunch over the weekend and loved how it didn’t feel overly crowded to start with. The ambience is perfectly setup to create an open space!
We were greeted promptly and taken to our table we had reserved, even after we were served water we got attended just to be asked if we are celebrating anything.
The staff was very polite and made us feel right at home. Once we started trying the different dishes we kept getting impressed one after the other. The flavors are proof enough that they don’t make anything in a rush, there were flavors and attention to the detail from taste to the presentation. I live in Texas, but I will be recommending this to everyone and everyone who would be going to San Francisco in the future“

“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!“

“Seriously underrated. The owner wanted me to eat the panipuri in the restraunt when it was takeout order saying it would get soggy. I was like nah I'm still going to have that that takeout and he literally poured a bunch of the tamarind water into a Togo coffee cup with lid. The service is second to none. Also the lamb biryani is so good. Cost wise its not overly expensive. Taste wise its rlly good“

“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.“

“New Delhi has hands down the best Indian food in Marin IMHO, great for vegetarians! Service is friendly and delightful , and the food is excellent, with each dish having a unique flavor profile. Lunch buffet often has more unusual seasonal dishes, as well as the classics. Buffet is an incredible deal with lots of dishes, Chai, salad, samosas and pakoras, pickles and dessert all included, and delicious. Did I mention that prices are really reasonable? What's not to like?“

“Amazing restaurant with delicious food, great atmosphere, and outstanding customer service. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and welcoming throughout our visit. Special thanks to the owner for being so kind and making sure every guest feels valued and comfortable. You can truly see the passion and care they put into both the food and customer experience. Highly recommended, and we will definitely be coming back again!“

“Our favorite Indian food in San Francisco. They truly go above and beyond for their customers and their food is always delicious. They forgot to add my Naan into my Togo bag this evening and personally drove it to my house to make sure that we were able to enjoy it with our meal. Have eaten in house a few times with my in laws and their table side service is just as attentive.

Their Chicken Lolipops (appetizer version) or the Chicken 65 (entree version) are always a must/go to especially when we bring our family and friends!“

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

“I recently visited Taj Indian Cuisine with some friends, and it was an absolutely incredible dining experience. Hands down, the food here is the best among all the places I usually visit! We ordered a variety of dishes to share: Paneer Pakoda: Crispy, perfectly seasoned, and a great way to start the meal. Mix Grill: Packed with flavor, perfectly charred, and incredibly juicy. Dal Makhani: Rich, creamy, and slow-cooked to absolute perfection. Mint Lachha Paratha & Garlic Naan: Both breads were fresh, warm, and the perfect complement to the rich curries. The mint flavor on the paratha was a stando! If you are looking for authentic, high-quality flavors, this is easily one of the best places in California for Indian and Nepali cuisine. I will definitely be coming back for more. Highly recommended!“

“$120 for 3 people including tax+tip, this is a very nice spot and great location, don't come here if you're in a hurry though the service and food was a little slow haha. The smashed samosas were so good! Also really liked the chicken dumpling tikka masala“

“First time here and we absolutely loved it! The food was so delicious, and our server Navi was incredibly nice, friendly, and attentive. She made our experience even better. Everything was great, and we’ll definitely be coming back! Highly recommend!“

“Great food and service, I would like to explore more from the menu“

“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!“

“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!!“

“We had such a wonderful experience at Star India! We were visiting San Francisco with family and craving authentic Indian food, and we enjoyed the meal so much that we ended up coming back a second time on the same day. The food had a truly authentic Indian taste, and the pakoras were especially crispy and delicious.

What stood out even more was their hospitality. We were freezing that night, and although it was already closing time, they specially made chai for us and even offered us extra. We loved both the food and the customer service, and we’ll definitely return on our next trip to San Francisco!“

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

“Very nice place, my family came here for late night cravings and did not leave disappointed. Such amazing food everything looked great, I had the vegetarian malifa kalfi, to mention they also had a great amount of vegetarian options, I couldn't get enough of my food it was delicious, the Britain looked great, and the Haan wasn't to soft to be chewy and weird and not so hard to be burnt and unjoyable but it was perfectly cooked to pair with rice and curry. Dont know how to share pictures but if I did you would be blessed by how good it looked, tasted so so good, again the malai kofta was MIND BLOWING, great food and even better service, the owner and server was so kind and giving,“

“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.“

“First of all, the catchy name caught my attention, but the menu is what truly impressed me. They offer fresh, innovative dishes you don't typically find at regular Indian restaurants. The paneer butter masala was finger-licking delicious, and the naans were fresh and soft—they didn't even get chewy when cold. The chaats are a delight, especially the onion kachori chaat.
The absolute highlight, however, was the dessert that shares the restaurant's name: Jalebi. Fried in ghee with real saffron and made fresh to order, it is the most delicious jalebi I’ve tasted in the whole of the USA.
The hosts are a lovely couple running a family-owned business, and they truly have a calling for hospitality. When we visited right around closing time, they were still running around for hungry customers. Even when they had to turn a group away at the door, the wife immediately offered to pack food to go, bringing smiles to everyone's faces. She always finds a way to serve her customers. We really enjoyed our meal and hope to return soon!“

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

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

“Excellent food and friendly service!!!“

“This was a great place an experience. The service was great but thanks to Elijio at the cafe and Bar. The experience turned amazing the service and recommendations plus the tips about the city and where to go, were on point. We work in Las Vegas hospitality and we know service. Thank you Elijio we will be coming back just because of you.“

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

“The momo jhol is the absolute star. The tikka pizza is also good, but the momo has been my lunch the past 7 times I have been there. Creamy, rich, and supple soup, with incredibly spiced dumplings. When I have this and a napali beer I can work all day feeling fueled. Slightly barebones in the seating, but the food outshines that“

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

“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!“

“We came to San Francisco from the UK and were looking for authentic Nepali food. Among the many Nepali restaurants, we chose Gurung Kitchen, and it turned out to be a great decision. The hospitality and service from Tamang baini were excellent, making us feel very welcome. The food was truly authentic Nepali style—especially the pork jhir, jhol momo, and all the curries, which were cooked just like back home in Nepal. Thank you for the wonderful food and warm hospitality. We highly recommend Gurung Kitchen to anyone looking for genuine Nepali cuisine in San Francisco! KUDOS“

“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“

“A hole in the wall restaurant with no fills bell or whistles but the food is outstanding. And that’s the best authentic food in the area. Food has been consistent for the past 20 years that I and adult children have been eating here. Kuddos“

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

“It’s was aww❤️ delicious food 🍲“

“Visiting from England and fancied a curry. The curry did not disappoint. Good food, friendly staff and good service. Next time I visit San Francisco I’ll definitely eat there again.“

“This Nepali-Indian spot in San Francisco stands out for its exceptional balance of flavor, aroma, and authenticity. The momos are easily the highlight-perfectly shaped, generously filled, and steamed to a soft, delicate texture. Each bite carries a rich, savory depth, especially when paired with their bold, slightly spicy chutney.

What really elevates the experience is the kitchen's mastery of spices. The curries are not just flavorful-they're layered. You can taste the careful blend and slow cooking process, where every spice feels intentional rather than overpowering. The aroma alone sets the tone before the first bite, with warm notes of garlic, ginger, and toasted spices filling the air.

The sauces are smooth and well-balanced, whether it's a creamy curry or a more robust, traditional gravy. Nothing feels rushed or artificial-everything tastes thoughtfully prepared. Combined with fresh naan and a comforting atmosphere, this place delivers a genuinely satisfying experience that reflects both Nepali and Indial ary traditions at their best.“
