I was in San José for my brother's wedding and purchased all of our wedding methai from Jewel. Everything was delicious and super fresh. We kept going back for more and more. The staff is welcoming and friendly, which made it even more of a great experience. I will always return to jewels whenever I visit San Jose!!

Super good garlic naan and tandoori chicken. The naan was quite flavorful and had a very nice texture. The tandoori chicken was really tender and was by far the best i've ever had.

I am a very frequent restaurant visitor and have tried all types of cusines all over the country, but yesterday this restaurants gave me a pleasant surprise when I ordered Chole Kulche, one of thier amazing dishes with very freshly baked Kulche and very tasty and worth the price.
The new owners are very good and very friendly and care for each customer who walks in....Their Tea(Chai) is very fresh too.
I would highly recommend this Jewel in the food industry.
Awesome...
