37 Best Indian Restaurants near San Leandro

“The Best Indian Food ever ‼️“

“Recently stopped by for a weekend lunch and it was delicious! Unfortunately, no pictures of the dish I ate (chicken curry, pacific iced tea) but my friend did snap a few photos of her food (tacos, samosa, and bhajia). The bhajia actually has an interesting story! My friend tried ordering it when we first arrived but we were told that they had run out due to a large order that morning. We ended up ordering our other items and sat at one of their outdoor tables to enjoy our food. Near the end of the meal, one of the owners comes by and offers us an order of bhajia on the house(!) because they ended up having enough for us. It was such a kind gesture and we ended up having a short chat with the owner. Really nice owners and great food - what more can you ask for?!“

“insanely good indian food. This has been my favorite restaurant since around 2021, and I have never stopped coming here. They have the best tikka masala i've ever had. I reccomend getting it with paneer because sometime the chicken can be a little bit dry. Their garlic naan is also super good.“

“Best Indian Restaurant in Hayward. Food is so delicious and taste amazing. We tried Briyani, Garlic Naan, Noodles, MoMo(Dumplings), butter chicken and everything was amazingly delicious.“

“Very good food with good service. Definitely, recommend for a visit“

“Absolutely delicious cuisines, lovely ambience, excellent customer service and friendly staff. 100% recommend!! ❤️“

“I have the pleasure of eating here once for the buffet then returned for a birthday dinner. The chef/owner nicknamed “Gopi” is a very special human being as well as a great cook! He was so warm and welcoming! I felt like I was at a friends home rather than just a restaurant! That’s so rare these days. I love that they still have a buffet at lunch! That’s rare indeed. The food was authentic and excellent as well as reasonably priced. We will definitely be coming back !“

“We had the chicken biriyani and litti chokha. Its really good. They are very close to the authentic taste. The chicken biriyani here is lucknow style which is a bit rare to find in the east bay. Irrespective of that detail, the biriyani is really amazing.
Portions and service, really good.

p.s: if you get a patio seat on a sunny day, you get a nice view of the bay and the Golden Gate bridge.“

“I was headed to the post office on 13th street when I noticed this kabab restaurant. I thought, I'll stop in on my way back. What a treat, I had the curry lamb with rice. I must say that it has to the best curry sauce that I have ever had. The flavors were bold and rich and the lamb was cooked to perfection. I will most definitely be going back!“

“Awesome to have a quick, clean, and tasty Indian restaurant in town. Pani puri, malai kofta, and garlic naan were all great. This is quick and easy North Indian fare. Service is exceptional and while busy, I didn’t have to wait for a table for 1. If you are looking for Indian food in Berkeley, this is a solid choice.“

“Thrilled to have a one-stop Indian store in Alameda! I'm so excited to have discovered a comprehensive Indian store in Alameda, conveniently stocked with all the essentials we need.

The store offers an impressive range of food options, including delicious home-style North Indian dishes that remind me of authentic flavors. This has been a lifesaver, especially during our kitchen renovation when cooking at home was a challenge.

Previously, we had to travel to Fremont for small items, but now we can find everything we need right here in our own town! Kudos to the store for catering to the local Indian community's needs and providing a welcoming shopping experience. I'm grateful for the convenience and variety they offer, and I look forward to continued patronage.
Only one little suggestion to keep some Indian veggies including curry leaves , green chilies etc“

“We had food catered & delivered from them. All the food was authentic, super tasty, well packaged and presented. Everyone loved it & mentioned multiple times. I recommend them wholeheartedly. We ordered Chicken Curry, Dal Makhani, Paneer Veggie Sabji, Raita, Naan, Rice, Salad & Rose Kheer. Rose Kheer was so yummy. Chicken Curry tasted homemade Punjabi. It was delicious. Paneer Sabji & Daal were also very yummy. Spices were mild. You can't go wrong by ordering from them.“

“Best food in town. If you love Indian food then you should go and try their authentic Indian food. I am pretty much sure that you won’t be disappointed. I give them 5 out of 5.“

“I am vegetarian and I love to try different food places for vegetarian foods and I have no hesitation to tellThis place has no comparison with other North Indian restaurants because this place is best for North Indian food . Dal makhani c Muglayi kadahi paneer , Malai methi paneer are best ever“

“Hole in the wall with delicious food! Today we had saag with potatoes (medium spicy was SO tasty) and vegetable korma with vegetable dumplings and sesame naan. Big fan of the sesame naan! Our usual order is bindi (okra) and lamb vindaloo, and veggie samosas - all of which we consistently love. My husband also got the cumin-spiced lemonade but thought it was a bit salty.“

“great food & atmosphere! 5 stars!!“

“Hosted a traditional party in this venue recently and we were very impressed! The hall was very nice and clean! The backdrop was awesome! It was a one-stop shop.

Nutella paratha was a great fusion twist. The Owner is very attentive. Will highly recommend this place if you are visiting Berkeley, you must try this place.“

“I love what they're doing here. The food is insanely good and I think the ordering system is brilliant—allowing for less food waste and an expansive menu. My wife also wants to point out that it was ready promptly. Tbh it could have been an hour late and I still would have given in 5 stars.“

“Delicious Curry House truly lives up to its name,
Their food is simply delicious, it's a culinary acclaim.
The ambiance is awesome, a perfect dining space,
Coupled with nice service, it's a place you won't replace.“

“Food is always amazing. All the snacks are made fresh daily.“

“Amazing service. We were super hungry after late ending of a show and all nearby places were crowded with long waits. So we found Mamta’s on Yelp and called them at a whim. They told us that they are closing in a couple of minutes, yet offered to get us to go. I requested if we could dine in to enjoy fresh hot food and surprisingly they said yes.

So we got there and asked for Dosa, Veg thali and some chaat. Then we asked if we could get chai and guess what! They said yes! I mean who does that (who = Indian restaurant).

Overall amazing service. With a smile (rarity in and of itself) and very welcoming. Food was fresh and delicious.

We plan to go there again next weekend?“

“Their buffet is back after 3 long years! Everything was prepared well, each with their unique flavor. Good balance of meat and veggie options.
Given the increased cost of everything in 2024, the updated price of about 22usd isn't too bad.

Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian options“

“Great people and extremely satisfying food. It was just what we wanted and we will be back soon and undoubtedly regularly thereafter. Five stars for sure. Thanks!“

“I had the chicken Tika Masala Burrito, it is one of the best meals I’ve had in the Bay. Don’t sleep on this place, if you don’t like it then you are a hater. I’d fly all the way back to California from Chicago just to have that burrito again.“

“Yummmm. They should have a higher rating!! Their food is really tasty. And it’s not greasy like some of the other Indian restaurants around. I got the butter chicken to go and it came with a leg and thigh. Was surprised to get two big pieces of chicken. I ate them so fast I ended up in food comatose. Oops.

The meal comes with rice and a little salad. It doesn’t cost as much as other restaurants and is far better tasting. Going to be back to try more of their food.“

“Wonderful food on a comfortable patio with very friendly staff. Thumbs up 👍🏾“

“Best Food by Chef Jay... Good place for Indian cuisine, If you are craving for Indian food this is the place to be... Best food reasonably priced...“

“Very polite staff and merchandise selection is huge. Very nice customer service and price is very low from other Indian stores.“

“I really love the samosas here. They're extra crunchy and stuffed with savory potatoes and peas! The tamarind sauce just takes it over the top. I also had the chicken take a masala. The sauce was good, but the dish was just okay overall because the meat was bone dry and had no flavor. My suggestion to the restaurant would be switch to thigh meat. It is almost always going to be more tender and flavorful. The rice was also a rather bland and I didn't get even a hint of cardamom. I'll probably try it again in a couple of months.“

“AMAZING momos. The pani puri is FANTASTIC. it’s packaged perfectly so you can take it home and eat it. No problem. The chili chicken momos r my favorite. And always get pani puri. 10/10. Favorite spot in Oakland.

Vegetarian options: Half of the menu is vegetarian. Lots of vegetarian options. And the chicken is halal“

“Bopping in to town to see Harry Mack at Fox Theater, we parked around the corner and wanted something to eat. I saw the phrase Indian Street Food on the window, mentioned it to Brian and it was immediately decided. I am stoked, because the food was delicious!! The tikka masala was great, mango chutney to die for, salsa with my rice (sooooo good, you have no idea!!), and if I wasn't on a diet I'd have the El Jefe burrito, which is a burrito made with naan!!! Check this place out if you're anywhere near one! I believe they have multiple locations.“

“Still the best deal at the Emeryville market.
Big portions for the lowest prices you will find at the place. The chicken is so tender. The sauce they pour over the rice is awesome. I will return.

Vegetarian options: Half the menu is vegetarian.

Parking: Lots of spaces.“
