Fiji Fry House is between a Salvadoran bakery at the end of the block and a car repair shop across the street. The shop has an American and Fiji flag at it's side, the only decor visible. The food differs from other Fiji eats i've tasted. The food here has it's distinctness and it's influences from Indian food. Offerings: appetizers, curry tacos, Fiji fried chicken, curry rice box, ala carte, desserts, drinks... Drill: order by phone or at window, pay, food cooked to order. Eats: bhajia (9.75) -similar to pakora. Distinct in having thin flour coating, not a thick batter. 4 pieces of grounded spinach, veggies are moist throughout not dry. Has a chutney dipping sauce. Lamb & potato curry (19.75) -crunchy papadum wafer with flavorful vegetable pulao rice of fresh kachumber, pickled veggies, tumeric to soak up masala gravy. -lamb & potato in tomato and spicy masala gravy adds a spicy kick. Very fulfilling. *couple of tables nearby to dine on. **many entrees have a fusion theme combing Indian & Fiji cooking techniques..da best of 2 cuisines.

I got the chicken sandwich and it was so delicious I forgot to take a picture!! The samosas were super good too. I'd come back here for sure

The fried chicken sandwich is THAT good. It's fried to order (order ahead if you don't want to wait). The bun is buttery, the pickles light and crispy, the mustard tangy but the star is the perfectly seasoned, crunchy, light, juicy chicken. It's so good, that even my picky eater liked it. I mean, he liked the mustard too and that was a first for us. We also got the bhajia, seasoned fritters made with spinach and other veggies served with a tamarind sauce. So good. The size had the perfect crispy to creamy ratio, and they are delicious. We also ordered the ice tea and a pineapple jarritos. For dessert we had gulab jamun, warm, fragrant, and sweet dough balls in syrup. Yum. There's only 2 tables outside, but lots of ledges to sit too. Perfect for delivery and takeout. They are now doing delivery on week days which is awesome.

We just ordered this delivered, and the food was truly impressively good. The sandwich is as described by others, tender and lightly crispy with pickles and maya and mustard that go perfectly with it. We got the lamb curry, which is a little spicy, but had depth of flavor too and the meat was super tender. The rice went well with it too. Also, the samosa were great. Samosas are often kinda hard, dense, and dry. These were fluffy and flavorful. We're going to get food from here again soon, I'm excited to try the other curries.

Great chicken!! Fried chicken sandwich - huge and on point! The crisp and flavorful curry breading paired with the surprisingly juicy chicken breast was great! The sandwiches are fried to order so best believe you get a fresh one, the aspect of freshly fried means that the batter was so light and crisp! Pickles and flavored mayo brought depth to the whole thing. Bread was spongy like in n out and ghee buttery. This was good enough to bring to my picky Asian family and drop by multiple times. Mango Lentil Dahl - savory, refreshing, with a kick Owner very nice and takes the time to explain the menu items Location is in the neighborhood with sus parking but the seating is clean and nice on the sidewalk with fake bushes Overall definitely would return, it's a great place and I love supporting small business

This place is fire!! We ordered the chicken sandwich and goat curry. Perfect spice level and flavor combo. You'll be hard pressed to find a better fried chicken sandwich in San Leandro. Definitely a unique take as it comes with a chutney sauce. We will be back!

Delicious and flavorful with amazing service ! Thankful to have this a few blocks from home. They are truly passionate and take great pride in serving fresh and quality food. We had the mango lentil dal, Bhaji and fried chicken sandwich. Fresh quality, love the spices and flavors. Great veg options.

If you’re trolling around looking for a place to eat and Fiji Fry House is open, drop everything and go eat there. I’ve just had one of the best meals I’ve ever had in my life at FFH. We ordered the fried chicken sandwich, totally sublime, and the chicken curry bowl, so so good. The curry bowl had some pickled carrots on the side that were a totally new taste for us, pickled but slightly salty. The bhajia, an appetizer, were amazing too. They have a couple of tables out front, no indoor dining. You can order for pick up or do what we did and sit out front to eat these sumptuous dishes. You may recognize the flavors as Indian but they are uniquely Fijian, something similar but not exactly the same. The guy at the restaurant is super nice, friendly and welcoming. Don’t miss this place!
The food is amazing!!! I would give it 6 stars for if I could!!! Order ahead walk or drive over and pick up. Only a could spots to sit right on a busy street and next to Bart tracks. Perfect door dash spot. It is so good. Ordered chicken sandwich, sliders, Vegan tacos and fritters… all amazing!!!

As much as I like Jollibee's and Bonchon's fried chicken, this is my new favorite: Island chicken wings from Fiji Fry House at 110 San Leandro Boulevard in San Leandro. A little on the spicy side, but absolutely delicious. $12.75 for six wings, with a flavorful green chutney ranch sauce on the side. Open weekends only, mainly takeout but a couple small outdoor tables. People are super-friendly also.

Fiji Fry House is a hidden gem right on the SL / Oakland border. It's a small storefront with a little outdoor seating. It's only opened on Saturdays and Sundays so plan accordingly! The food has a mix of Fiji / Indian flavors. The owner is so nice and welcoming!Order:-Fries: Great appetizer with nice spices. The fries came out crispy and had a nice balanced seasoning-Papadum: First time having it and the flat breads are super crisp. The kachumber garnish was similar to a pico de gallo, but different-Samosas: Really enjoyed the dish and the flavors. There wasn't one spice that was overpowering and all the spices paired well with one another.-Chicken slider: Probably our favorite! It was super flavorful and had a wonderful sauce.-Island Chicken Wings: Also another favorite! The wings were nice and crispy and coated with a gentle sweet and spicy sauce. -Mango / Chicken / Lamb Dahl: All were very good and came with rice on the side. All very flavorfulTotally recommend to try Fiji food!
