47 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!!“

“The entre was quite good. I watched them take the naan out of the oven, place it in a basket, and deliver it to our table. We got a pistachio icecream desert with cardamom on top that was divine. The service was wonderful, they were very accommodating and kind. The restaurant had authentic hole-in-the-wall vibes. I would go back!“

“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.“

“Gitesh was the most thoughtful server, service was top notch - no complaints. The food tastes amazing and my friend concurred that it was authentic. There is plenty of space to sit, and everything is clean. Will definitely be coming back to eat more tasty food.“

“i go to nepa indian cuisine today food taste very good like home. curry is nice and naan very soft and fresh too. staff people polite and service is fast i not wait long. place is little bit small but clean i like it. i think i will come back soon with friends because price also fair. good honest food.“

“Indian Clay Oven Exceeded my expectations. One of the best indian chicken curries and gulab jamun (indian sweet doughball) I've have in the US in a long time. I also ended up striking a pleasent conversation with the very warm and professional staff Nabi, who claimed that some of their vegetarian options are even better. I'll definitely be making another trip there soon to try their other dishes out. If you're in the neighborhood and are looking to get some authentic indian food, this is your place to be.“

“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.“

“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 went back in August 2025 for my partner’s birthday. so happy overall.

Food: absolutely incredible. dumbstruck. the most delicious shrimp/prawns I have ever had. you MUST try them.

service: wonderful. we had a lovely server (we sat at the bar) who gave us so much inside intel and input on what dishes were like and which the staff loved most. it really made the meal special.

drinks: confusingly mediocre/bad for a place with food this good. the drinks were just… not very good. not well balanced, not skillfully made, and just… confusing. for a place with food this good, I’d have expected the cocktails to be at least Very Good. They were a little below average. That’s the only reason this is a 4 star review!

other notes: we thought/hoped this would be a romantic fine-dining vibe, but it’s actually packed with families and is not very romantically set. not necessarily a problem, just something to be aware of!“

“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“

“This place is an amazing hole in the wall! It's such a cute restaurant with good music and vibes. The staff are so nice and understanding, I have celiac disease and I'm vegan and they're super able to accommodate. They give you a ton of free food before your dishes come out and it's very affordable. Huge recommend for Bay Area residents:)“

“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?“

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

“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!“

“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!“

“So delicious and affordable! Ordered the chicken Tikka Masala. The Chicken comes in huge pieces and is so tender and juicy and the sauce is just right. You can’t skip an order of the Samosas! The flavors are so vibrant and the textures are perfectly crispy and not oily at all! The sauces are also to die for! Trust me, you have to go here!“

“I ate at this restaurant because it is only a few blocks from my apartment and I am glad I ate here. This is really good Indian food. The best Indian food I have had so far. The fish was amazingly delicious and the soup 🍜 was really good too. I highly recommend this place. I give them 5 stars“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“Really great place for good taste. This is the only Indian restaurant compared to many in US found maintaining the original taste & flavour. No one will regret/disappointed after going there. Keep it up. Just last week we had our dinner.“

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

“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!“

“Excellent food and friendly service!!!“

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

“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.“

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

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

“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 🍲“

“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.“

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