“Had just arrived in San Francisco, and hit the road heading to Sonoma for a wedding this weekend. Looking for a place to have lunch and we found Avatars on line. So, we decided to try it, and we are glad we did. Our meals were cooked fresh to order and they were delicious! Friendly staff and a place we will fondly remember and look forward to trying again on our next trip out here!!“

“Best Indian food I’ve eaten in many years!!“

“Visiting from England and fancied a curry. The curry did not disappoint. Good food, friendly staff and good service. Next time I visit San Francisco I’ll definitely eat there again.“

“Nepa graciously accommodated our reservation of 15 mixed age revelers. The hospitality and service were top-notch, they allowed for special wines brought in with corkage, and helped pace the meal, which was served family style at our request. Loved the tikka masalas, the naan, chai - everything we ordered. We so appreciated all our gracious servers. We will be back.“

“The food was excellent and mouth watering! The staff, friendly and attentive. I highly recommend.“

“Delicious lunch buffet . The server - Fabi was so kind and offered us chai tea and mango lassi. We came late for lunch and they were so patient with us and we had a fabulous meal and didn’t feel rushed. I recommend 100% this long existed neighbourhood restaurant (25 years old).“

“I was here for the AYCE lunch on a slow weekday afternoon and the owner offered me unlimited free chai even though I wasn't doing the buffet and just ordered off the menu. The aloo naan and mango lassi were delightful and the service is so pleasant and prompt. This is my new go to!“

“Food was absolutely phenomenal. Service great and staff friendly. Ate quite alot and didnt have a single bad dish. Naan was on the house, pricing was great anyway. Plenty of vegan gluten and dairy free options. 5 stars my new favorite location“

“Have been here a few times now, and Tiya has been consistent with the quality of food and service. I ended up taking their tasting menu everytime so can only comment to those .. and they never disappointment. Being a person of Indian origin, I must say that they have done justice to the flavours of India... a modern take on traditional flavours while maintaining the true essence.“

“My family and I had an amazing experience at Sunset Indian Cuisine last night. We love trying new places and this was the one which didn't disappointed us. The ambiance was cozy for a relaxed dinner.
The food we had was so delicious. We started with the noodles, which was amazing with less oil. The Juicy Chicken Momo with chutney on the side was incredible. We also ordered Garlic naan, which was soft and warm, Tandoori chicken, Chicken curry, everything was perfect. The service was perfect with friendly and attentive waiter who was knowledgeable about the menu.
We'll definitely be back to try more of their Indian and Nepalese dishes, and we highly recommend this place to others !“

“Excellent made to order Momo’s. I can’t wait to return!“

“The combination of cultural food here is great. Some of the best Indian food I've ever had combined with some unique items from Nepal such as dumplings that seem similar to something you would find at a dim sum restaurant. Overall, the food was outstanding, including high quality sag lamb and great naan bread too.
This is a family restaurant and clearly the people running it care very deeply about providing great service and great food.
Prices are very reasonable too. We had an appetizer, two main courses, and one drink each for a total of $68 before tip.“

“Had a great dinner at Copra. Food was great - we had the gunpowder goli vadai, thattukadai fried chicken, masala dosai, Dindigal biryani and dessert. The biryani was a little mild, but rest all very good. We all really enjoyed the dessert especially - gods own coconut variation. My only complaint is that the lighting is way too dim and low that it gives a headache.“

“Hey there foodie friends, Guess what? I just had the most delicious and authentic North Indian food during my visit to San Francisco! I never expected to find such yummy flavors in the USA. From buttery naan to spicy curries, my taste buds were dancing with joy! If you ever get the chance, you HAVE to try it out. Trust me, you won't be disappointed! Keep on adventuring and trying new things!“

“I had a great experience. The server was probably busy and the one who accommodated me was actually doing dishes. Later, both of them helped me pick a palate. Jhol momo’s jhol was a bit thick for my taste but it did taste wonderful. Very good atmosphere, very good service and tasty food.“

“Wow! We visited this restaurant for the first time today and were pleasantly surprised by the incredible taste of their food. They had dairy free options which we really appreciated and absolutely every dish that we ordered was delicious. We'll be coming back to this place for sure!“

“I am meeting friends here. We are quickly welcomed and seated on our table. Reservations are a must I think.

I see a smoking plate being carried to a nearby table and I know what I’ll be ordering.

Our host is friendly and efficient. Our server attentive and checks our order for correctness. The service and attention to detail is good. Our table is cleaned a number of times and waters are refilled fast. I don’t think I got to anything less than 1/2 a glass.

The smoking plate is dahi puri. Nicely done. The yoghurt mousse on it is unique. There a bit of a kick from the masala. Very tasty. Very enjoyable.

For the mains we had lamb shank nihari and butter chicken. The playing is gorgeous. The food has a nice unique taste. A bit different from the regular flavors of these dishes but in a good way. The garlic naan bread delivers.

The texture of milk looks beautiful, tastes just right, and offers an excellent capper to a delicious meal.

Great experience. Nice ambiance. Good vibes.

Will be back.“

“Of all the Indian restaurants in the Bay Area that I tried, this restaurant has the best food imo. I discovered this place by chance on the way to Napa. After having a full meal, I ordered another meal for takeout because the food was so good. I've been here twice now. It's exceptionally good.“

“The menu covers both Indian and Nepalese dishes. We ordered Tandoori Chicken Kebab, Mutton Kebab, Dal Makhani, Chicken Momos, and Naan. The tandoori chicken and mutton kebabs had a nice smokiness and rich meatiness. The restaurant is also willing to adjust spice levels based on your preference, which is a plus. The chicken momos had a juicy filling and a good texture. The Dal Makhani—a butter-rich lentil dish—was creamy and flavorful. The naan was a bit thick; it would have been better if it were slightly thinner and puffier. We also tried the Nepalese beer, but it wasn’t as good as expected. Overall, the service was pleasant, and the atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming.“

“One of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had!
Staff were beyond warm and welcoming; they shared their culture with us alongside their cuisine.
The butter chicken, mango lassi, gol gappa, chai, and everything else was perfect and in great portion sizes.
10/10, will eat again“

“Not the best Ive had, Royal indian on uber eats still beats the butter chicken. The pistachio Kulfi was amazing and the service was very good. We had roti, naan, butter chicken and rice. I will be back here for another dinner and try some of the other things on the menu.“

“This truly is the best Indian food i’ve ever had. I used to live a couple streets away, and would frequent this restaurant. Every time, the food was consistent, fresh, and flavorful. Tara Indian provides good sized portions, and they don’t skimp out on the meat and potatoes like a lot of other Indian restaurants i’ve tried. A few months ago I moved out of state, and I have not been able to find anything that even compares to Tara Indian. I miss dining here, and look forward to coming back when I visit SF.“

“We visited during new year’s eve; the place was empty and service was quick.

The ambience is ambient, food options excellent and drinks also on point.

We ordered chilly momo, tandoori chicken, coconut chicken curry and Indian breads.

The best dish was hands down the chilly momo, super tasty!
Tandoori chicken was overcooked and rubbery.
Coconut chicken curry was tasty too!
The breads were excellent.

I also ordered an old fashioned, and it was powerfully! One drink and I was buzzed.

Our bill was around 120$ for 4 adults.“

“Taj is excellent. We order from here all the time. Mainstays like tikka masala are great, as are vegetarian options, such as baingan bhartha or saag paneer. The naan is also very tasty. Highly recommend the tandoori salmon or shrimp curry if you’re looking for a seafood option. It’s all good! Super nice staff is a plus.“

“Really good Nepalese momo and chwomin there. Recommend everyone to give this a try“

“I went for a birthday dinner celebrating my partner and we were a food sensitive, time restrictive, six person loud group. Rose's has an extensive vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free menu! They boasted that almost any vegetarian curry could be made vegan and they were very clear about dishes that didn't contain gluten or cross contamination. We ordered a lot of food and dishes, had a few people order late due to traffic, and watched the restaurant go through what we later learned was 120 orders between take out and dine in. We had to leave about an hour in and hadn't gotten food aside from appetizers so the host allowed us to convert things to take out and come back for them later. They were so understanding and we were expecting push back but they were incredibly apologetic. We came back about 2 1/2 hours later and our food was hot, they let us have a table again, they even remade the naan and let us take home the extras! Then they brought out free rice pudding as a thank you for patience (which we totally didn't expect because we were the ones being inconvenient) and then when we sang happy birthday to my partner they quickly brought out vegan ice cream with a candle and sang! Above and beyond, a night we won't forget and hospitality that came from extremely passionate people. Thank you so much for your generosity and kindness and patience with our big birthday group <3. We split the bill between four people and it was only about $40-$50 each which is absolutely so shocking for the volume of food we ate! Everything was delicious, their specialty naan are all wonderful, and they've got some excellent fusion items too. Go outside your normal order for this place; you'll be absolutely amazed.“

“This is the most delicious Indian food I have ever had. The time and care taken to make this food shows in the taste and presentation. The atmosphere is near fine dining but the price is not. The service is impeccable but most of all the food is excellent.
Come here and eat!“

“Curry corner Indian pizza is one of the best Pizza I ever had, best price n great pizza 🍕.“

“We stopped there on our way to catch our flight at SF airport. We were short on time and we placed our order. Our server was fantastic helping us to order and we were served our dinner promptly. There was a feeling that all the staff worked together as a team, looking after all the tables not just their own station. That is a sign of true teamwork. We really enjoyed our dinner there. Food and service~ EXCELLENT!“

“This place made the tastiest veggie curry dish - I asked for the Channa Masala extra spicy and they did such a great job! Their garlic naan is very good too. I am not an expert or Indian food aficionado. However, I love the taste of their food and the girl I spoke with over the phone was very sweet!“

“I recently visited this Indian restaurant and was blown away by the variety on the menu! From rich curries to sizzling tandoori platters, there’s something for every palate. But what truly stole the show for me were the momos and chowmein absolute perfection!
The momos were juicy, flavorful, and served with a spicy dipping sauce that packed just the right punch. The chowmein was delightfully savory, with a perfect balance of spices and fresh veggies a comforting, street-style classic done right.
Whether you're craving traditional Indian dishes or something with a Nepali flair, this place delivers on all fronts. Highly recommend for anyone looking to explore bold, authentic flavors in a cozy setting!“

“I had their lamb roganjosh, aloo Gobi, and chicken chettinand. People might say Pakwan is the place to go for good Indian food in the city, but I was thoroughly impressed with what I ate at Keeva. This is not watered down gringofied Indian food. Absolutely loved the lamb roganjosh, the cauliflower and potatoes were very well spiced, and while I personally didn't like the chettinand, I understand the flavor profile and what that dish is. You're missing out on really delicious Indian food if you're not eating here.“

“The staff was so nice!! We had 2 different dishes plus drinks. It was right after the game so it was nice and quiet for us and not a crowd at all.
The naan was delicious!! The garlic naan was really good but the onion naan was even better!!
The mango lassi was delicious 😋

Thank you for the service.“

“Lunch buffet is really good and at a fair price.“

“I got Karahi Gosht and it was authentic and flavorful. Serving quantity was decent as well. I live in the South Bay and most places over there don't get this dish right. 5* from me, for the Karahi Gosht and Naan. Service understandably took some time because they make it fresh and piping hot. And I went there in between performances of standup comedy at Cobb's next door.“

“The food here is absolutely delicious! It’s a bit on the pricey side, but totally worth it for the amazing flavors and the amount of food. The saag paneer and cheese naan are my absolute favorites — I can’t get enough! I’ve been three times now, and it never disappoints. Highly recommend!“

“The best Indian vegetarian food! Organic and amazing seasoning.“

“We got chhole and pav bhaji. I found the spices and oils were not over the top which is amazing. Bedmi poori with chhole was not oily at all but at the same it it was soft and tasty. Felt like when mom makes something restraunt style. Dahi puri chat was also nice.“

“Been eating here basically since it opened. Used to be another Indian place that I frequented but when Tilak took over, the food took a leap up.

It's still one of the best Indian restaurants in the city. Easily. Everything is so good and flavorful... from basics like dahl and butter chicken to more unusual dishes like masala lamb racks and goan prawns. If something on the menu looks a bit unusual, that you don't recognize from other Indian places, I recommend going for it.

Tilak himself and the rest of the staff are friendly and awesome, but the food... Just great stuff all the way down the menu.

So, yeah, easily my favorite Indian place in SF and the place we've been doing our company holiday dinner for the last five or six years.“

“Excellent food and friendly service!!!“

“Su personal y su comida está deliciosa y accesible sus precios están bastante cómodos está muy rica su comida“

“i am so grateful for Udupi Palace it’s one of my favorite restaurants in the Bay Area everything is so delicious!!! ���South Indian People, Food & Culture ���“

“I Definitely recommend their momos. its super tasty and juicy.“

“I had the Chicken Tikka Masala and Aloo Naan. It was very good I recommend this restaurant.“

“Overly priced. Service was excellent, but food not upto the mark. Place and no salt. Quantity for the price, not worth. Took veg thali, appetizer with one less sabzi would have been great… dessert was disappointing, to be honest felt like idli dipped in milk, was so hard“

“Just stopped in as a business owner staying at the Clancy hotel up the street and found this place open. They were amazingly open towards helping me with my food choices since I haven’t been always open to it. I wanted simple, not too spicy and they nailed it. I got a great simple chicken appetizer followed by an easy lamb dish with potatoes. Holy moly! She came back with a small dessert on the house.Don’t expect a freebie when you come but I always love it when I’m appreciated. Give these guys a chance. They are special. They now have cocktails too. I happened to stumble in on the week they got their license.“

“Support excellent food and a longtime San Francisco tradition!“

“We had a great meal here on a quiet Tuesday night, and I’d love for more people to know what a gem this spot is! The food was tasty — we had a variety of vegetarian dishes — and the service was super friendly. I loved the calming water feature and a lack of screens in the dining room; the presence of screens seems to be becoming the norm at more casual restaurants. Looking forward to coming here regularly!“
