The gravy and dal were in such proportion that more than 2 ppl can have it .. Food was waste little bit because of my wrong proportion but was really worth of the money and was delicious . At the end, th... read more

This restaurant is the best Indian restaurant in Downtown San Jose. They are famous for their lunch and dinner buffets. As far as I know, only this restaurant offers a dinner buffet around downtown.

I consider this place as the best for Indian food in downtown San Jose. it works for me. It is casual. Not too expensive. Has buffet. Owned, managed and run by an Indian/ Punjabi Chef. Food is good. Variety is great. it is not Americanized Punjabi food but mild Punjabi food. Buffet is value for money. Today we had 1. Garbanzo Beans & Cucumber Salad. 2. Raita & Chutnies 3. Mix veg Pakoras 4. Shahi Paneer, Dal Makhni, Choley Saag, Mutter Mushroom as veg dishes. 5. Tandoori Chicken, Butter Chicken & Mutton (Goat) Curry 6. Kheer... read more
