"Ordered 2x in 1 month! Ingredients are fresh & well seasoned. Shrimp, chickpea cucumber salad and chapatis for lunch was delicious"
"This is the best authentic South Indian restaurant in the city. Their food, especially biryani, is amazing, and the portions are humongous when ordering online too. This is the standard every restaurant in the city should have."

"Darn good...tender Chicken Tikka Masala, good sauce, light color but rich flavor in the right way, no sweet or sour overtones, just straight up. "Extra Spicy" was mild for me but I def welcome the little bit of bite. The tamarind sauce is thin but legit, the green chutney is thick and also not too sweet or sour, exceptional. Nan is nan but they do that right too. Excellent quality meal."
"I ordered the Palak Dal combo, and it turned out to be a really satisfying meal! The Palak Dal was flavorful and comforting — rich, perfectly spiced, and had that homemade taste that’s hard to find in takeout. The Basmati rice was fluffy, aromatic, and paired beautifully with the dal. It wasn’t oily or clumpy — just clean and well-cooked. And to top it off, they included two papads instead of one — fresh, crisp, and a great crunchy side. Everything came neatly packed and still warm. It’s simple food done right — healthy, hearty, and full of flavor. Definitely something I’d order again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5)"

"Best naan in the city, and the chicken in their curries is so flavorful and tender. My favorite place to order indian food from. "

"The food is the most consistent and well-tasting I've found among all Indian restaurants in SF. I've ordered from this place 5+ times now in the last 2 months, and every time the quantity of biryani is plenty. The taste is authentic and it's just consistent, which is perfect. I've tried 15-20 different places for biryani in SF, and this, I think, is the best one right now."
"Ordered Non-Veg Platter and butter Naan. The platter had: Chicken Manchurian – Really tasty and reminiscent of General Tso’s chicken, but less sweet. Chili Momos – I had no idea what to expect, but these were excellent. The dumplings seemed fried, then tossed in a peppery, savory sauce with bell peppers and onions. The sauce wasn’t runny—it coated each momo evenly. It reminded me of a Chinese stir-fry, but lighter and less greasy. Chicken Tikka – Tender, juicy, and full of savory flavor. Perfect with the butter naan. Fish Fry (Swai) – This one surprised me the most. The minced onion sauce on the crispy fish was delicious! It’s more of a paste than a liquid, but the flavor was incredible. It even reminded me of fermented black bean sauces used in Chinese stir-fries. Highly recommend this place. Will try other dishes next time."

"Their garlic naan is my favorite in the area (moist unlike the drier naan from other restaurants). The chana masala is thick and gravy like; super delicious! Aloo Gobi is also good~ chicken biriyani is amazing. Only sad thing is the aloo palak has cream in it so my vegan gf cannot eat it "
"I usually don't leave reviews, but Ocean Indian Cuisine is by far my favorite restaurant!!! It is so delicious and the staff is so friendly. I find that their portions are super large and you always get your moneys worth. The food is so flavorful you can tell they cook each dish with love <3"

"Shalimar is my all time favorite restaurant; great prices and even better food -- they have the best nihari, the best kebab (beef) and best chicken tandoori; naan is always fresh and fluffy. Overall truly can never go wrong with this place"
"I have tried all the Desi restaurants in the area the 31. Daal Masala is not as flavorful as it should be. Also the 10. Seekh Kabab Murgh in the picture shows three kababs however upon ordering they only provide a single one. However these two items are not very popular even within the restaurant I would recommend trying something else they offer instead. They are very nice people though"

"Top notch - I love any of their kormas, and the Momos are exceptional. their sauces, curries and dips are so fragrant and authentic - tastes like mom's cooking but slightly more elevated. Despite all the amazing food in the Richmond district, this one serves a very important niche as comfort Nepalese / Indian. Would also suggest dining in."
"Excellent food at this new spot. The sauce on the chicken tikka was so balanced and delicious. The spinach with paneer was perfect, and even better with the mint chutney. We will definitely be back for dine-in."

"I love their pongal. Close to what i eat at home in India (Tamil Nadu). However i have one complaint. The amount of chutney they give is very less. For an order of uttapam and pongal they have 2 tiny boxes of chutney (similar to the size u get for mint chutneys)."

"This place is the best. Always get the combo, and always get extra Naan. They have great portions for takeout, and the quality is super consistent. The 9. Chicken Cashew Cream Curry/ Kukhura Ko Ledo is incredible. The Momo is better at the restaurant as opposed to takeout. Great place!"
"This is the only restaurant I regularly order from and since their inception! My favorites are the 27. Spinach Cheese Curry/ Palak Paneer , the 9. Chicken Cashew Cream Curry/ Kukhura Ko Ledo, the 22.

"The Chicken Kheema Dosa is a bit weird, but pretty good, and also a ton of food for a decent-for-SF price. It's a gigantic dosa (in an even more gigantic package), with a softer, more crepe-like texture than I've had before (but then I'm hardly an expert on South Indian food). The soft, light dosa stuffed with a ton of minced chicken is a bit messy to eat, but definitely worth it. The green (coconut?) chutney perfectly complements the dosa and chicken; the resulting combination has lots of flavor and a bit of spice. The orange (tomato?) chutney is less exciting, but still not bad. And there's two sambar, as well. Really, the only negative is that there will be a ton left over and I have no idea how to reheat dosas without destroying them… Anyway, I'm happy I accidentally ordered from the wrong dosa place, but after this pleasant surprise, I will order from them again (and it won't be an accident). There's tons of other stuff on the menu that looks worth trying."
"It’s an ideal way to kick off your lazy weekend with a delightful South Indian Vegan Breakfast. From the meticulous attention to packaging, the fluffy texture of Idli/idly, to the harmonious balance of sambar and chutneys, I thoroughly enjoyed this nutritious and delectable breakfast (and it comes in sufficient quantity it might also cover lunch). It's a perfect blend of healthiness, flavor, savoriness, and light on calorie intake. I surely coming back to try some more."

"5/5 for Chicken MoMo (10 pcs). Their momo are full of chicken, soft, flavorful, and have thin dumpling wrapper which gives a really nice texture. You get full after eating 6-7 of them because they're huge. I love their portion size and taste. It's worth it for $15. Plus they're halal too. "
