5 Best Indian Restaurants near Visalia

“It was our first time trying The Hungry Elephant last night, and I couldn't have been more happily stuffed since moving to this area a few years ago. I've tried dozens of different Indian places throughout California over the years and this ranks up there with some of the best.
The food was PERFECT.
Everything we ordered was full of flavor. The meats were cooked to perfection, the Lamb Tikka Masala was godly. I would bathe in it, it was so good. We ordered everything "spicy," (that's just how we like it) and the only thing that made us sweat was the eggplant, but in a good way.
The service was fantastic, very attentive and happy to answer questions with a smile. Overall wonderful people that I'd love to get to know.
The restaurant was clean and well maintained.
I honestly cannot wait to go back and make this our regular spot.
I only wish they had some type of "combo" dinner because I would really love to try everything without ordering the whole menu.“

“I ordered a chicken Naan. was given the wrong order by mistake. called the store and Jaime was super friendly to correct the mistake. I couldn't come in same day but rather 2 days later. they made me a fresh Naan and even added in chicken Tikka Masala. it was amazing. service is amazing and they are super friendly. I'm rating this place a 5 star! love it ❤️“

“Great Butter Chicken Pizza. Here from Bakersfield“

“First time here. Food and service was excellent. The owners Sabi and Mona were very friendly and helpful with explaining the menu. The Vegetable Samosa, Butter Curry Goat, Chicken Titka Marsala and Butter Salmon with the Plain and Garlic Naan and Basmati Rice were all wonderful. We had plenty of leftovers to take home.“

“We came here for lunch on a Monday and it was nice that we got the whole place to ourselves. The food came out quickly and it was DELICIOUS, we got the curry veggie pizza, the pineapple bread sticks (which are now my FAVORITE lol) and loaded fries, and I don't have a single complaint. We WILL be coming here again.

That being said I have some nitpicking observations that are easily remedied. There weren't any paper towels in the bathroom, but once we brought it to their attention it was quickly remedied, which I will give them points for.

The OTHER thing was, it was TOO BUSY. There were a couple loud TV'S on, a juke box playing country music, while the surround sound played hip hop, equally loudly. It is such a small space it was a bit overkill. We had to nearly shout to be heard sitting across from each other. We did turn one TV off, but the music was also just very distracting, and not in a good way.

We decided to relocate outside, and the chairs were so DUSTY and we ended up cleaning them ourselves, which is fine (like I said, nitpicking), but it was better than being bombarded by all the noise. The surround sound was also outside but it was limited to just one thing, which made it pleasant. To be fair, once outside, we forgot to bring it to their attention, or ask if the noise situation could also be remedied.

Anyways, we will be coming back and we will be coming back with friends .“
