“We had been wanting to try Bharat Social’s veggie burger for a long time, and we finally got to try their Veggie Burger, Jain Burger, and Cold Coco. The burgers were fresh, with perfectly crispy patties and well-balanced flavors that make you want to come back again.

The Cold Coco was refreshingly indulgent and authentic - a great choice for anyone who appreciates quality vegetarian food made with attention to detail.

Highly recommend this place for its Cold Coco and what is quite possibly the best Veggie Burger and Jain Burger in the Bay Area.“

This place offers a truly unique and welcoming atmosphere; the outdoor seating was particularly delightful.

I'm already spreading the word and eagerly anticipate my next visit. Thank you for creating such an exceptional environment.“

Served traditionally with multiple sides, it includes: • Sambar, rasam, kara kuzhambu, kootu, poriyal • Chapati, appalam, curd, and rice • Ends perfectly with sweet payasam Every item is flavorful, well-balanced, and gives that authentic “home food” vibe. The variety and combination make it super satisfying.“

“Their masala dosa is excellent. Tastes just like what you get in Bangalore. Their onion dosa is good too. The food has been good consistently.
There is a 20+ minute wait time even after you order pickup. There aren’t a lot of places to comfortably sit and eat in. It looks like a cloud kitchen.
Highly recommend though. Great place for dosas!“

“Best South Indian food and service in the area. Extremely popular so reserve spot via Google or on yelp. Friendly staff. Pan is also delicious. And I love the mega tiffin combo plate that gives you a taste of everything. And their unlimited sambhar and chutneys are even more delicious, coconut is my favorite.“

“We ordered food from Idly Express Milpitas via Uber Eats. Excellent food quality, with good packaging. Everything tasted fresh! Thank you Idly Express!!“

“The momos are delicious. They were absolutely juicy, and the feeling was extremely well balanced, and they did not skimp on the quantity either. The chicken chow mein, on the other hand were below average. The quantity of chicken was less. The noodles were stuck together. The seasoning was lacking, and there were few vegetables then I like. I would skip the chow mein next time and just get the momos.“

“All products specially Makhani Masala and Rojana Masala give authentic Dhaba Style taste to everything from Paneer Makhani , Mix Veg to Daal Tadka and lot more!“

“I love the food, and so glad they have take out right now during lockdown! Our dinner last weekend was the best we have had since the lockdown started 🙂“

“Sri's Kitchen is an absolute gem! From the moment I walked in, the service was exceptional and welcoming. The food was packed with flavor, and every dish tasted fresh and authentic. The fried pastries were simply divine—crispy, flavorful, and impossible to stop eating once you start.

If you're a fan of rich, deep, and authentic spices, Sri's Kitchen delivers some of the best flavors around. Every bite leaves a lasting impression and has you looking forward to the next one. The surrounding community atmosphere is warm and inviting, making the entire experience even more enjoyable.

A special thank you to Mr. Angola for the outstanding customer service and hospitality. His professionalism and attention to detail helped make this visit memorable. Great food, great people, and great vibes—I'll definitely be back. Highly recommended!“
