Naturally Desi Cafe 'n' Catering

Worst indian restaurant.. don't get confused by names mentioned the menu..they will send whatever that is available and say this is how they make it.
Seriously what's wrong with indian restaurants in San diego..

- pav bhaji - bhaji was just like a thick gravy, not enjoyable.
- pindi chole - chole were under-cooked and very hard, couldn’t eat it at all.
- Amritsary naan - was good, but not cut into the usual four pieces, so it was difficult to share.

Date night and new to the area. Found this restaurant on google. Why not? We went in and it was empty usually not a good sign. However, as we browsed the menu, we noticed that it was a nonstop in and out of people taking takeout bags to go. So we thought the place was pretty good because the people just kept coming and leaving and coming and leaving so we sat down look at the menu some more and decided on our dishes.The interior design I will say it’s a eclectic. I don’t think it’s authentic however it is pretty cozy and interesting inside love the fact that the waiter is part of a family that owns this place and really went over the menu in detail.We decided on butter chicken, some vegetarian curry dish, and it all came out beautiful and it was very delicious and sidenote, quite reasonable as far as prices concerned Gonna make this and you take out place for us However there is plenty of room in the dining room to accommodate large groups, small groups and they even have a kids menu so don’t be afraid to bring the whole family. The owners are very nice and if you have any questions they are ready to answer it give it a shot. Let me know what you think.

I went down to this place, and based on the reviews, I ordered Vada pav and samosa from this place...Vadapav was bland... By no way, they were anywhere close to being authentic. There was no taste other than salt, very disappointed. Samosas were strictly ok.

Your menu has items that go well with chai. But your chai availability is so uncertain. That’s quite disappointing. Either have free one available all the time OR just charge for it. Please give me an option to always have it and don’t make it a surprise. I don’t know if I can come back with this

It’s tucked away in the shopping center so not immediately visible. It was mostly empty but we saw over a dozen people come for takeout orders. The food was delicious and the staff was friendly and helpful. Will definitely return. Loved everything we ordered!

i tried the pindi chole (comes with rice), samosa, and tandoori roti (naan has milk in it) and they were all amazing!! my friend got the eggplant bharta and she loved it as well

We live in RB and we probably go here around every 10 days at most. :) Everything tastes so fresh and flavorful, the appetizers are amazing and we have never been disappointed. I do like Indian food, though I have probably only been to around 10-15 other Indian restaurants overall. Desi is by far the best one I have eaten at - it's not even close.My favorites are the Gobi Manchurian appetizer, the Samosas, and the onion pakora.Never had anything but good service - super friendly and we are so very lucky to have them in RB.
