“Great Indian takeout in San Leandro / Oakland boarder. Warning: butter chicken is addictive! Signs of withdrawal: watery mouth, lack of interest in other food and dream about an orange creamy stew over basmati rice.Tip: spicy option is HOOOT. Settle for medium“
“The food, atmosphere, and service exceeded all expectations. The owner is so customer focused - we felt very well taken care of. And the food was beyond flavorful! Definitely my new go to place for Indian food because of the quality and price!“
“My wife liked the chicken that she ordered. The chicken momos were too spicy for her even after it was supposed to be medium s spicy. I liked the aloo matar but my wife didn't like it. She liked the veg chowmein. I didn't like it. We both liked the kulfi. The pistachio kulfi was very good with almost no sweet or ever less of it. The mango kulfi was too sweet for our taste buds and it was ok. The service is really great. Will come again.Vegetarian options: There are few veggie options. Please ask and the waiter can suggest you some options.Parking: There are some parking spots outside the restaurant.“
“New fav Indian spot. It's in a plaza so there's parking. Lots of spices and flavors coming out. The recommendation was the tandoori chicken, saw everyone eating it, heard it sizzling, but went with less meat options. We ordered mild for our son, but even that had a little kick to it which was great for us and manageable for him.“

“My partner and I are becoming regulars here because the food is delicious every time we come. We’ve had the baingan bhartha (my new favorite), palak daal, aloo mattar, biryani, and palak paneer. The food consistently tastes so fresh and flavorful. Plus, the atmosphere is warm and we always feel welcomed.“
“We ordered a variety of their recommended dishes including a noodle soup and goat dish. My favorite is still their chicken tikka masala with garlic naan. The tikka masala is a bit thicker in consistency and their naan is slightly sweet, which adds a nice twist.“
“Very efficient and fast service. They build great relationship by welcoming guests with smile and taking great care for customers. Food is hot fresh and taste great. Sometime you just need street indian food to satisfy your cravings. They deserve recognition. The lady cashier is amazing.Vegetarian options: Best“
“Came here for dinner last night with a family since we were craving Indian food and we were not disappointed! We got the garlic naan, orange fig tikka the butter chicken, and the chicken tikka masala. Everything was deliciously hot and fresh. We were happily surprised. portions were very affordable and Can't wait to come back and try more food!“
“Definitely the best Indian food in all of the Bay. It's mostly a to go place, but there is some seating including a nice outside patio area. If you come on a Saturday, it's next to all the galleries so view art and eat well. It shares the location with a wonderful Jamaican chef. Try the stuff naan, best daal takika imaginable (made fresh to order) and the Rogan lamb. This will become your favorite Indian restaurant.“
“Raj is great. I have eaten here over 10 times since I have discovered this place last November. Literally, equivalent to home cooked food. He can modify most dishes to your preference (Vegan, in my case). The highlights are the naan (homemade, none of that pre-made microwaved/baked stuff), the aloo gobi, chana masala, veggie samosas w/tamarind sauce & veggie biryani. I could probably write a paragraph for each of those dishes, but I will let your imagination fill in the gaps... Having said that, there are some challenges. 1. One man operation- so there may sometimes be delays with pick-ups. 2. It is in the hood, hood. If you aren't from around here, please pay attention. 3. Take out only If you can overcome those challenges, then you can have the opportunity to eat some of the best Indian food I have ever tasted, Northern or Southern. (This is Northern btw) I am conflicted because it is a great food, close proximity and priced at a high value. However, if Raj were to move I would totally understand and he would probably be more successful for it. I would still go patronize him too.“

“Wanted to pick up some kasoori methi (dried fenugreek leaves) for a recipe, which brought me in. Staff is friendly and helpful. I bought a couple (mix veg) Samosa on a whim for a snack when I got home and these are the BEST samosa I’ve ever eaten in my life. I really want to come back for lunch/dinner at some point, absolutely delicious food.“
“As an Indian who is often skeptical of the restaurants around the Bay, I was quite impressed by this.Good value for money, overall good flavor (not too whitewashed lol), great service, nice ambiance.Wish the best to this restaurant and hope they include more South Indian dishes in the future!“
“Their Chole bhature are the best in the whole Bay Area. Try it once and you can tell the difference. I have ordered it many times and will continue to do so but I have tried their other food items which were just ok. Their naans needs improvement. Not sure what happened but when I took them home and tried to eat them, they were basically stretchy and unchewable. I hope they fix this problem. When eaten in the store, they are very good.“
“This place is one of my favorite in the Bay area. The quality has been remarkably consistent over the past year and every dish I've tried has been very good. The khichari got me through COVID.I am really not a fan of picking up from here because it's always packed with delivery drivers; making parking difficult and talking to the staff quite frustrating. My mitigation strategy is to wait at the window that's to the right of the front door so they see you when they come up.Even though the above is frustrating, the food is always worth it. If the price was lower, I'd eat here more often.Vegetarian options: Lots of options!Parking: It's almost always packed with drivers. Just find the first spot nearby and walk.“
“Hands down one of the best Indian pizzas I've ever had. We ordered the Spicy Bread, Chicken Pizza Masala & Mango Monsoon. I felt like I couldn't eat it fast enough! Definitely worth the food coma. Ty for the good vibes and delicious noms ??“
“I've eaten here 3 times. EVERYTIME the food has been delicious. every time the service has been friendly. No, it's not "fine dining". Don't expect it. They have this cauliflower dish that tastes like spicy chicken wings. I don't know how they do it.“
“I’ve been to this amazing restaurant a couple of times now and come back for the great food and amazing service. This is a great restaurant with the kindest people running it. I placed a very large takeout order without calling in advance and was received with so much kindness and was even given some extras! The food here is absolutely delicious and the owner went above and beyond.“
“Went here for some drinks and to watch the Tennessee Vols football game (visiting from out of town). Staff was very friendly, and Eddy was great! Enjoyed talking to him, and he put the game on for us and was overall wonderful. I wish we hadn’t eaten lunch before going there, because the food looked great. We did have the fries which were perfect.“
“Party of 4 for mid-week lunch on quiet large patio Food + service very good. Chicken biryani was large ( took some home for dinner) + chicken was tender. 2 persons had the veggie tandoori appetizer of mushrooms + asparagus. Garlic Naan ordered-delicious as was the mango drink“
“My go-to Friday night take out after a long work week! Food is consistently delicious and affordable especially compared to every other Bay Area Indian restaurant. C'mon $12.99 for Chicken Tika Masala? That's UNHEARD OF. I am loyal to this place thank you Delicious Curry House for your service!“
“Using the TooGoodToGo app i decided to give Bamboo Asia a try sometime late last year. Using this app is a cool way to try different restaurants in your area, but the catch is that the food is a surprise so what I got was unbeknownst to me until I arrived.The first time I came I got a curry of some sort. The second time I got a beef kind of dish. It was good and there was a large portion given both times. Anyway, there is a lot to choose from had I gone here any other time just to order. The interior is cute with plenty of seating. I imagine this being a popular spot amongst those working in the area.“
“This is THE best Indian restaurant in Berkeley. We only order to-go and they give generous portions that I can eat over the next two days. This is our go-to place and have yet to find another restaurant that blows us away as much as Mehak does.“
“$30 for one Lamb Karahi and Garlic Naan including tip and tax. Good sized portion for after the gym.Taste was really good, but I’ve had better Lamb Karahi, of a similar portion, for less money in the East Bay.If the value doesn’t bother you this is a great place.“
“We always order momos from this place, and they never disappoint. Last time, we tried some other dishes, and the noodles weren't great. Still, the momos are the best around, The momos have amazing flavors, and the prices are fair. We usually do takeout, but we're excited to eat in sometime. Despite the noodle issue, it's still our favorite spot for satisfying our momo cravings.“
“Quality and presentation is great and the food is good. However, a great meal (especially the Indian cuisine) isn’t just about sustenance. The Ingredients and Spices are the magical tools, adding depth, warmth, and complexity to every dish transforming ordinary meal into extraordinary experiences. So with that in mind, I recommend the sizzling dishes, we had fish and prawns which were good & tasty. I was not impressed by the Chicken Tikka Masala which is my favorite dish, it was too ordinary and just dull. The Fish curry was ok. The rice is too ordinary and not what I expect for an Indian Basmati rice. Nan/Garlic-Nun are good as well as the Samosas. 3.1/2 Starts for Food.(3= Good, 4= Great, 5= Exceptional.)“
“I tried finally some takeout from this place after hearing so much buzz about it. The paneer tiki masala and rice I had was very tasty. The spices were nicely balanced and not too bold. The paneer was slightly chewy rather than the more firm texture I'm used to. At some point I will go back for a sit-down meal there since the dining area looked cozy and inviting. I'm not 100% sure I'd try the paneer again, but menu had all the usual suspects so I'm sure I'll find an alternative. The service was very friendly and fast.“
“Everything was delicious! My favorite was the chana masala. The fried peanuts are like nothing I've had before, in a great way (but not date food since it's loaded with raw onions and garlic ?). People are really nice and it's now my go-to spot when I'm in the area. I can't wait to try more of the menu!“
“This place was so good and definitely will be going back. While it wasn't very busy at the time (Went around 6:30pm)there were a lot to go orders. Staff were so nice and made sure we liked and had everything we needed. We (3 people) ordered Butter chicken and Palak paneer which came with rice. It was go delicious and wasn't heavy on cream like some places. Food was light and flavorful and still filled you up. More than enough for three people. The restaurant is beautiful and spacious. Beautiful chandelier in the middle of the room.“
“Indian food of superior quality; excellent recipes, their veggie rice alone is worth the trip to the Presidio (their kiosk is there Saturday and most weekdays). Chana masala and spicy garbanzo bean bowl is recommended; garlic aioli is a perfect accompaniment. A+++Vegetarian options: Veggie naan wrap and Chana masala bowl are excellent here“
“Good food. Consistent in quality. Very nice staff. Plenty of dining space and options on the menu as well as weekly specials. Food is fresh and served hot. It's a order at the counter and seat yourself place. Free delicious tea with dine in service. Parking can be hard sometimes but not terrible. A true staple in the community.“
“Went to Wah Jee Wah for the first time. Gave me the feel of roadside restaurants in India without the grime and dirt. Line was long and the parties ahead of us were indecisive and took forever to order which was annoying. There's a huge menu on the wall so it would be helpful t9 know what you want before holding up the line. You order first and then you can sit right outside the ordering window, inside, or the covered patio. We ordered gol gappe, chicken skewer combo, butter chicken, garlic naan, and mango lassi. There was some confusion with the gol gappe. There's a cart in front and you are supposed to get a ticket to get the gol gappe. We never got a ticket and weren't sure of the system. We took our number and sat in the outside patio. The first item that came was the butter chicken. It was tasty, but then the rest of the order did not come for a long time which sucked because by the time the naan came the butter chicken was lukewarm. I wish they brought the dishes at once or all together. The garlic naan and chicken skewer combo was good. The special sauce with the combo is the curry from the butter chicken. The mango was lassi was not good! It was watery and very tart! I would not get this drink again. Staff was helpful and attentive especially with figuring out the goal gappe situation which we ended up going to the cart at the end of the meal when we were pretty full. Wish we got the ticket at the start so we could have had those first. Other than that the food was great and the serving staff were super kind even though they were super busy! I'd come back and try the chole bhature which look really good!“
“I love the menu here there’s always something different as the menu changes month to month. The specials always have a detailed description that offers context and region to the dishes.Vegetarian options: They had 3x veg dishes n their monthly specials and a number of standard Indian veg dishes as well.“
“"YoYo Momoss in Oakland, California is a hidden gem that brings the vibrant flavors of Nepal to the Bay Area. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with the tantalizing aroma of freshly steamed momos. The menu boasts an array of authentic Nepali dishes, each bursting with bold spices and exquisite flavors. Whether you're craving traditional chicken, vegetable, or even adventurous buffalo momos, YoYo Momoss delivers perfection in every bite. The cozy ambiance coupled with attentive service makes dining here an unforgettable experience. Don't miss the opportunity to explore the rich culinary heritage of Nepal at YoYo Momoss .“
“The food was DELICIOUS! My partner and I ordered a bunch of stuff for her birthday and we were happy with every dish. The Bombay Chicken and the Samosas were so tasty and spiced differently than a lot of other places in the East Bay, setting Munch India apart. My partner said it reminded her of how her food was spiced when she lived in India. We will be back to try more!“
“Saudagur level quality (good). Fiji Sweets and Snacks is a hidden gem in Hayward that offers authentic Indo-Fijian cuisine and desserts. The food is amazing, with a variety of dishes to choose from, such as chicken curry, lamb curry, roti, samosa, and more. The portions are generous and the prices are reasonable. The curry is flavorful and spicy, but not too hot. The roti is soft and flaky, and the samosa is crispy and savory. The desserts are the best part, also very tasty, with options like barfi, ladoo, jalebi, peda, and more. The sweets are rich and creamy, but not too sweet. They also have a selection of drinks, such as Jucy soda, Fiji water, and masala tea. The store is clean and cozy, with a nice ambiance and decor. They also sell some Fiji products, such as snacks, spices, souvenirs, and more. You can find everything you need to enjoy the Fiji culture and cuisine.“
“My father found the best caterer in the Bay Area and the best part is they are both from Hoshiarpur! When we called Ravinder uncle he made us feel so welcome and promised us the catered food would be beyond our expectation....and he surely delivered! At our event, we had 4 people come on site and make FRESH food in front of our guests! Even a month after my event, people are still raving about the food and service! Long life customer!“
“I'm so happy we finally have indian food nearby. I like to pop in after work and get their combos for dinner. My family loves it. They do have a lot of chicken chunks in their chicken Tika and curries which we appreciate. The samosas are good as well. I've tried some of the frozen food offerings and were satisfied with those. What a great addition to this side of alameda. Will make this our goto place.“
“All the bad ratings is from these entitled Indian people who expect the food to be like their own Indian restaurant not realizing that this is a North Indian punjabi restaurant so don’t mind the bad reviews and definitely go visit this place and the food is very good “
“Viks is one of the best places you can be when it comes to Indian food and grocery. Excellent menu with home-made style options. The grocery store has everything you need (spices, ingredients, sweets, frozen section) and more.Great place to eat and get items for your home.Pictured: cholle bhatura and pav bhajiNot pictured: bhel puri, pani puri, rose lassi“
“This place is great. The staff there are so friendly, it's really well priced, and the portions are filling. We typically get their chicken tikka masala, vindaloo, or curry. I really enjoy their fresh naan, and also appreciate that they have gluten free mains which is important for my partner. They offer a small tasting sample if you need it, as they have many options and you may want one before deciding. My only wish, and I agree with some other reviews on this, is that you could order something extra spicy. Enjoy!Dietary restrictions: I was told all their main pot dishes, salad, and rice were gluten free! This is great news for my household.“
“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.“
