38 Best Indian Restaurants near Rancho Cordova

“Wow! If I lived closer to this place my wallet would be in trouble. We were nearby at the Sac Children's Museum and stumbled across this place when looking through restaurant reviews and were so happy we did. If you are trying to decide where to eat in the area, stop and head over. Highly recommend due to the amazing food (we had the Potato Bolani, Lamb Kebab and Chicken Kebab), warm service, free tea while we waited and huge portions. Can't wait to go back.

Kid-friendliness: They had multiple high chairs and were very kind to my 2 year old -- even giving him a free lassi because it was his bday.“

“Delicious food. I eat it every time I’m in town 🥰“

“The food was very delicious.“

“I always enjoy their cooking. Besides the food, I like the friendly staff! I recommend dining with them.“

“Love the lunch combo!All the dishes are cooked to perfection!Awesome service!“

“Quick service, delicious food well worth the money.

The waitress was a little rushed but understandable due to the capacity of customers dining and picking up orders.

Enjoyed the puree strawberry lemonade Mimosa perfect combo when drinking champagne ?“

“New Owners! Delicious Persian and Pakistani (alternate pages of menu). We had their paneer appetizer). It had big cubes of soft Pakistani cheese in a tomato based cream sauce with finely chopped ginger. Fabulous. We also enjoyed a grilled eggplant with a Persian yogurt cultured from sheep and goat milks. The butter chicken was exceptional: he grills his chicken, chops it, then adds the juicy chunks of meat into his delectable sauce. His ground beef kabob was juicy and tender. I enjoyed an inhouse, freshly made mango lassi. Wow! We have enough leftover to enjoy a shared lunch tomorrow.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
An absolute gem for Indian cuisine! I ordered the Butter Chicken, Chicken Tikka Masala, Tandoori Chicken, and Garlic Naan—everything was incredibly delicious. The dishes came with a fragrant, flavorful rice that perfectly complemented the meal. The spices were well balanced, and every bite was rich with authentic taste.

Sanja Punjab Foods has quickly become one of my favorite spots. Whether you’re new to Indian food or already a fan, this place is a must-try. Five well-deserved stars and highly recommended!“

“From the moment we walked into Mantra, we were warmly welcomed and seated right away. The staff was genuinely kind and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. The food was absolutely delicious, and the service made it even better. Mantra has a cozy, welcoming vibe that makes you feel right at home. Can’t wait to come back!“

“the fresh, cooked to order food. tender chicken, full spice flavors...loved it , I give it 5, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'s“

“Honestly couldn’t be better. The food is flavorful and the portions are generous. We eat primarily vegetarian: masala dosa, palak paneer, and malai kofta. The kofta in particular is amazing— they literally melt in your mouth, like little clouds of flavor. I don’t think you could go wrong here. The naan is fluffy, the dosa dough was so thin and light but generous on the filling… I really could go on. Not to mention every server we’ve had was so sweet and eager to answer questions and help.

Eat here please so that they are a huge success— they deserve it.“

“The food here is really delicious and comes out fresh and hot. The service was great. We were offered water refills, asked how everything was and if there was anything else we wanted, often. As of October 2024 I would recommend keeping your party to 4 or less people or ordering to-go because the tables/booths are fairly small. The place was very clean inside. I would definitely recommend this place.“

“Great 😊 customer service delicious 😋 food 🍱“

“The food tastes really delicious, especially their chicken tikka masala. I also visited their lunch buffet and their menu is very promising. Lovely staff and they even provide suggestions on the dishes for customers.

Vegetarian options: They do serve vegetarian dishes and they are displayed in their menu verey clearly.“

“We were visiting the area and a friend took us here and boy are we glad she did! The food was Great, we had the Papadum, Karahi Chicken, Baingan Bharta, Garlic Naan and Cucumber Raita and everything was wonderful. Highly recommend this place to anyone that loves Indian food.“

“Very delicious food and fantastic Costomer service!! We came here to celebrate my sons birthday and we loved every bit of it.“

“The service was great and they took care of us so well! If you can’t handle spice then you can ask for mild, and the food was just delicious. The only thing that felt off was the music wasn’t playing so it felt too quiet, but it ultimately didn’t matter“

“I taste Dosa only ,Taste is very good and delicious. I never such taste earlier.“

“Love this place. Not much to look at inside but great food. Combo of Mexican and Indian food. I have had the burritos, tacos, quesadillas, french fries, samosas with yummy sauces, and chicken tiki masala (available on weekends) and have never been disappointed. The prices are reasonable too.“

“Fantastic food and service! Very quiet setting. Limited seating, but no one was there when we went. We had the egg curry special, chicken coconut korma, and garlic naan (2 people).

I hope this review brings them more business to fill those tables! And make sure to try the chai!“

“Best Punjabi food, chicken tikka masala and garlic naan so tasty“

“Glad to see authentic South Indian Chettinad flavors made available in Folsom. I get the same great taste as in their Pleasanton, Santa Clara and Sunnyvale restaurants. Bright ambience with sufficient menu choices for vegetarians, meat & seafood eaters alike. Service is great too.“

“We have searched so many Indian restaurants. This is by far the best tasting food outside of India. Anjoo is still talking about her Chole bhatura. Everything is made from the love of taste. Five out of five stars. I dare anyone after tasting the food to say anywhere outside of India is better prepared.“

“Still the most delicious Indian food I ever had , and to quote my friend that I had introduced to this restaurant "the best meal I've ever had in California". I recommend this to anyone and everyone who wants to have some amazing authentic food.“

“delicious food and good prices!! great customer service!!“

“The proprietor exhibited exceptional hospitality by extending a complimentary dining experience for my family and me, allowing us to sample the culinary offerings prior to placing a catering order. While the initial preparation of the lamb seekh exhibited excessive saltiness, the chef promptly rectified the issue by preparing a second batch, though it still retained a slightly elevated salt content for my palate. The meal encompassed an assortment of dishes, including naan, korma, butter chicken, lamb biryani, fritters, and mango lassi. I highly recommend them and encourage you to communicate any preferences or concerns regarding the taste of your dish. They will be more than happy to remake it to your satisfaction.

“I don't even know what to say about Namaste foods other than I've never had anything that I didn't like from there. the food tastes wonderful. I was just at Sac Yard brewing where your truck was and had the samosas and the butter chicken fries and everything was hot fresh and tasty. the food is very gourmet tasting. fresh, hot and very well prepared!! I actually like it better than some of the fine establishments I've been to here locally. that's the best I can say to describe this truck. in this day and age of restaurants not seeming to care about their product this is a welcomed port in the proverbial storm! thank you Namaste Foods for caring! ❤️“

“Delicious and love the food, great customer experience I have:)“

“I never knew pizza could taste this good! Bollywood Pizza takes classic Italian pizza and infuses it with rich Indian spices, creating a flavor explosion. Their paneer tikka pizza is a must-try! Plus, the service is top-notch. I’m definitely coming back for more!“

“Food was delicious and authentic. Spices were on point, chicken was tender and juicy, samosas were spiced with great thought and care. Presentation was delightful. Interior was a bit clashy since it had look of old location mixed with new designs. Seats looked like they came from a wedding. Chandelier was missing 3-4 beads so looked off-putting. Window curtains were too flashy would be better with rolling blinds. Decorations did not have an appeal. A mural done by a local middle eastern college student could really showcase better. Wood paneling needs to go along with booths since they looked old and worn-down. Buffet food looked delicious, but needs a sneeze guard. Cashier table was in the back with unused buffet area and too much cluttering of tables. Dirty dishes in a tub should never be visible or left next to buffet. Salad should be on top of a bed of ice to ensure temp. Clutter at cash register needs to be out of sight. Spiced tea was delicious along with serving of water. Floor was clean though could use a buffering. Wiring visible and signs old and not mounted properly. Foiled upper design was interesting. 3 TV's mounted that were too close together and not being used. Lights changing too fast and blinking giving more of a party vibe than a restaurant. Beautiful couch but with leg missing in a corner was not necessary. Speakers should be put away until their use. Lots of improvement needed for front interior, but with the food being delicious and mouthwatering, I will definitely come back hungry for more.“

“Beef curry, polaw, Bangladeshi dishes is sooo good� I really enjoyed it �“

“This place is so good. The spicy 🌶 is just right and they have a lot of options. Their beers are great. The lamb is cooked perfectly and their priced right. I always enjoy eating their food.“

“Fantastic Korma! Love the Saag Paneer! We will most definitely be coming back!“

“There is a video going around on TikTok that restaurant said this or that to this one customer. But no one has heard the other side of the story yet and people started to write bad reviews. Shame on them. It is very difficult to run a Restaurant or any other businesses. The customers would have said something to them first. There is no business that would just want you to leave. They opened up a new Business place to grow their business to service customers, No business wants to turn customers away. Their food is great, We will keep on going. - i am not associated with the business.“

“We wanted a good old American breakfast and Rosie's had just that. I had chicken fried steak and eggs, hash browns and toast. And it was cooked perfectly. Cathy had pancakes and a couple eggs. Which looked yummy to and she said it was good also.
They also serve Indian food i saw on the next page. But i was having breakfast, so I'm not sure what the serve.“

“Best food! Mashallah...Fun to go with family... delicious karahi chicken... chana masala & chicken Biryani“

“This Nihari was gone in seconds, it was mouthwatering!! And so was the Malai boti- truly delectable!! An appealing choice of flavorful Pakistani/Indian cuisine, can't wait to be back soon!“
