This is one of my favorite Indian takeout restaurants. Almost all of the dishes and breads have been great so far. The service is quick and no-nonsense. I'm not sure about its dine-in patronage pre-covid but currently I mostly see its tables empty. The sparse neighborhood doesn't help a lot either. read more

Quite decent food, and it was empty when we went in for lunch on Sunday. Service was attentive, and the ambiance was pleasantly quiet. They were burning incense when we arrived, and asked if we'd prefer that they put it out, which was thoughtful. We had plain naan. Chicken tikka masala, rice, and samosas. Everything tasted good. I'd go back and try out more of the menu. read more

I was " pleasantly surprised ' by a meal delivery from here recently- too the fact that they're open for in-house service until Midnite. I do wish they'd add Thai Iced Tea to their MENU since they're more ," UNIVERSAL " than a lot other Desi Eateries - Serving Up Indo-Pakistani & Nepalese Cuisine !!! Bet it'd be a "" HIT ""... Been Frequenting here since it was MARHABA about 7 years ago with their ' Very Popular Lunch Buffets ' in times past !!!!!! read more

Today was my first time trying food from Delicious Curry House and I had a lukewarm experience. One thing that immediately stood out to me was that prices here are noticeable cheaper than other Indian curry spots in Oakland and Berkeley. I ordered the palak paneer ($10.99), cheese naan ($3.49), and vegetable samosa ($6.99). Portion sizes were generally what I expected at this price point. For example, although ordering a cheese naan at House of Curries in Berkeley is double the price at $6.99, the portion size there is double as well. I thought the cheese naan here was just alright. I didn't get the cheese pull I'd expect from a naan that's stuffed with cheese, and the sparse amount of cheese inside also was quick to solidify after we had picked it up. The samosa was crispy on the outside and the mixture was well-seasoned on the inside. Included with the samosa are small containers of a sweet and tangy tamarind chutney and a spicy green mint sauce. With the palak paneer, I thought it desperately needed more salt. Not a difficult problem to fix at home, but a large pinch of salt vastly improved the taste of the dish. Another criticism I had of the dish was that there was simply not enough paneer. In total, there were four cubes of paneer. Overall, Delicious Curry House clocks in at a 3 star. I may stop by again if I'm looking for a budget friendly Indian spot and in the area, but there are definitely better options elsewhere. read more

Came across this restaurant while looking and it had good reviews so decided to try. Almost didn't go in because it said Pakistani (along with Indian and Nepali) on the sign outside but went in as I saw owner was Nepali. I chose this spot because they had veggie momos on menu, but sadly they weren't there when I got there so I got the Hakka noodles instead which were still pretty good, could use more salt, but other than that was fine. read more

Came here on a Sunday evening to enjoy an early dinner & I was a little skeptical not seeing a single customer but decided to just try it out. Initially we didn't even see any waiter or host so had to call out a friendly "Hello". We waited a few minutes then were seated & got to look at the variety of items offered on their menu. Since it was only 3 of us, we only got 2 main dishes & a tandoori naan. Service was pretty efficient especially when there only seemed like 2 workers there (the chef & cashier/waiter). Orders: Tandoori naan-Aloo Paratha was a whole wheat stuffed potato naan baked in a Tandoor. I had envisioned chunks of potato, bc I like texture, but it was smashed pieces placed into the naan. So even though the potato wasn't evident by appearance, I still tasted the potato. Chicken Tikka Biryani-basmati rice w/medium heat & nice chunks of chicken was a spicy dish for me. The bowl it came in seemed small, but in reality it was actually deep. So it was satisfying & the only change I would add is to keep the spice level at a low range instead of their medium spice level. Other than the spice level, I would reorder this dish again for its authentic & generous chunks of chicken pieces. Look forward to trying more things at Deliciois Curry House in the near future. read more

I was going to a show at the Fox, looking for someplace local and tasty. The reviews drew me in here. Nobody was seated when I went in on a Wednesday evening, about 5pm. Nobody else sat down for the next hour, just some doordashers and takeout people arrived. I was promptly visited and gave my order. Vegetable pakora, butter paneer, and garlic naan, with rice. Everything came out in good orderr, and man was it good. The pakora came as five balls, packed with onions, cauliflower, and what else, which was different, and quite good. The butter paneer was excellent as well, and I finished all of it. The one guy who was attending the front had disappeared by then to the back, and my seat was sort of behind a wall. After a loooong wait, I stood up and started walking toward the back, when he remembered me. I ordered chai tea and gulab jamun, and again both were really good, but it took quite a while to get his attention for the check. The total check was absurdly low, $30.44 before tax and tip. So I definitely recommend this place, I just suggest they pay closer attention to anyone (if there is anyone) seated in the dining room. read more

We went there on a Saturday evening dinner and found ourselves to be the only customers. We ordered the palak paneer, bhaigan Bharta and dal makhani with garlic naan. The palak paneer was bland, the bhaigan bharta had a piece or 2 of baigan buried in malai kofta paste and the garlic naan was dry and we had to ask for butter to soften the naan. The service was good but the food quality was bad and definitely on the lower side of Indian food quality. They did seem to get a few take out orders in the hour that we were there but we did not see another dine-in customer. Perhaps this is a good lunch place during week days as it's in the business district but Saturday night dinner was a big disappointment. read more

We got the veggie combo ($14) and goat (16) combo.Combos came with basmati rice, salad and naan. Both delicious! The curry sauces have the depth and just the right amount of spicy heat to keep my pallet perked without causing me sweat. The goat meat had a little bit of gelatinous tendon - melted in my mouth 5/5. The rice was room temp warm and was a little stiff - like it wasn't re-heated/microwaved long enough, 2/5. Chai tea was rich with a touch of chai , 3.5. Our server was a sweet and soft spoken lady, attentive, We were in and out within 40 min. Restaurant was clean, Indian pop music to live up our lunch. Street metered parking or garage parkings at hourly rates. read more

Love, love, love this (new to us) Indian spot. The restaurant is cute and inviting. The food though is wonderful! It does not shy away from full flavor and you can ask for as much or little spice as you'd like. Will be a regular here. The prices are amazing, too! read more

Pictured in my review is their chicken tikka masala and garlic naan. I made an Indian cuisine inspired potato dish, and while making it I decided I needed either chicken curry or tikka masala. So, while I placed my order I decided to make my own rice. In other words, this review is about the tikka masala and garlic naan. The tikka masala is good, as always. Nice, creamy and I loved dipping my garlic naan in it. I served it over my white rice. I've had their rice before as well, which is delicious. I believe they use saffron in it? I've been meaning to review this spot as I came quite a few times in the beginning of the year, and let me just brag about the naan with cheese. I have no idea what kind of cheese it is but it is savory and satisfying. I've tried the mango lassi and it's what you'd expect to taste. I don't really have any complaints here. They seem to have a small staff, but they are always helpful. It was empty when I came in, but it was about 4pm during a work day. I suppose I benefit more than I can imagine with the perks of working remote. read more

We came in around 3:30pm on a Tuesday afternoon, it was very quiet. We needed a table for 3, they sat us in the back room. My daughter frequents this establishment, she said it's quiet like that all the time. She thinks it's awkward, so she gets her food to go lol The person working was just working. Not friendly, not unfriendly. Just there to do her job. The food is delicious. It came out fairly quickly and hot. I think I'll definitely return. If anything, for the garlic cheese naan. Was so good. read more

Delicious Curry House - Butter Chicken, Basmati Rice and Garlic Cheese Naan - Indian Near Me - Oakland, California

The name doesn't lie. I'm glad my friend took me here otherwise I wouldn't have been exposed to such delicious fish tikka masala or Nepalese rap artists. We were the only dine-in customers at around 2:30 pm and they were playing Nepalese hip hop. We ordered the fish tikka masala medium spiced, the butter chicken spicy, and the garlic and cheese naan. Everything was pretty amazing. The favorite was definitely the fish tikka masala. The fish was crispy and the tikka masala tastes more like the typical butter chicken that I always search for. And for a medium spice level, it was spicier then the spicy on the butter chicken. I could really taste the char on the chicken as well. The garlic cheese naan was soft, gooey, and garlicky. It paired really well with our dishes. My friends said that this visit was probably the best version of the dishes that they've tried, so I guess we got real lucky today. Either way, I might just be a fish tikka masala convert for now. read more

Good food and decent pricing. My friends and I came here after finding them on Yelp a while back and have been coming back since. It's our go-to for Indian food in Oakland. We've gotten biryani, naan, and curries here and they have all been good. Their butter chicken is creamy and flavorful. My friend is absolutely obsessed with their cheese naan. I will say the service can be a bit slow, especially with the place usually being empty when we go. Overall, a good place for Indian food. read more

My favorite is medium. read more

Delicious Curry House - Chicken Tikka Masala and Butter Chicken - Indian Near Me - Oakland, California

I've been here numerous times, so this review encompasses quite a few takeout orders. Palak paneer: This has been a solid choice everytime I've gone, it's well-flavored and generally tends not to be spicy if you're like me and are weak to spiciness. Vege korma: They put baby carrots in it. It's strongly flavored and rather acidic, I personally would've preferred it be creamier and with more cashews. If you don't put any special requests it tends to be moderately spicy by default, and may not be a good fit for you if you're prone to heartburn. Cheese naan: I love cheese, so I really enjoy this and would recommend if you love dairy and you're down to pay more than for plain naan. Chicken korma: Similar to the vege korma, I tried a little of it, but found it too spicy for me to handle at its default spiciness level. Vege kofta curry: Same as the korma dishes, I also find this to be rather spicy and acidic at its default. But I do enjoy the rich savoriness of the kofta (balls). Tandoori roti (which is labeled as vegan): It was okay, I find it rather flat and plain on its own so it really needs the curry or something else to go with it. Sweet & salty lassi: It was my first time having this, it is definitely more sour and salty than sweet. The herbs and spices do make it flavorful. I'd recommend if you want a drink that's more savory than sweet. read more

I'm not sure when, but they've changed owners. The food is pretty much the same, but the service has dropped a notch. The previous owners were really engaging and familial. The server we had was nice, but not as attentive. Spent a lot of time sitting with his phone. We ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala, Fish Curry and Lamb Biryani. The Chicken Tikka Masala was as excellent as before. Tender and well-infused with the tikka masala sauce, that was lightly tart and sweet. The Fish Curry Sauce was way too spicy. It was the most spicy curry dish I've ever had. The aroma of the curry did work well with the Tilapia though. For the Lamb Biryani, the basmati rice was the short grain kind, which I'm not a big fan of. I prefer the long grain, sela parboiled basmati. I also added a side of Garlic Naan. This was a delightful surprise. I don't know how authentic it was, but it was the most delicate and airy naan I've sampled. Almost like a light Neapolitan pizza crust. Another reason why I dinged a star was that after I got home, I realized I got charged for the small extra container of yogurt sauce I asked for. Really?? I mean, I've always been given those for free after a full menu order. And for $1.99? What's that, a 1000% markup? Sure, that doesn't put me in the welfare line, but how about a warning? As for you, my yelp fam, considered yourself warned. read more

Very good spot for curries, indeed. We ordered for dinner, so speaking on the quality and taste of the food- it was superb. Entrees: -Chicken tikka masala: so flavorful, lots of chicken, I'm still dreaming of this and can't wait to order again -Vege korma: I don't think I've ever had korma before but wanted to try a new curry-like dish with veggies. It was different enough from tikka masala but still very good Sides: -Basmati rice: flavored with a bunch of different spices, it's light but a great accompaniment to any entree you order -Garlic cheese naan: chewy, tasty, deliciously garlicky, I would order a bunch of this if I had it my way and just snack on it Even as leftovers, the food was filling and super tasty, I'm looking forward to ordering from here again and dining in sometime in the near future.

Delicious Curry House remains my top choice for consistently tasty and superbly prepared Indian cuisine in the downtown Oakland area. We mostly stick with dishes we know and like and have never been disappointed. And that list of dishes covers everything from their curries to biryanis to tandoori dishes as well as salads. All have been, to quote their name, DELICIOUS. What we particularly love is that Delicious Curry House cooks with whole spices. And you will find everything from cardamom and pepper corns to star anise pods and bay leaves in their dishes. You do need to be aware of this or risk crunching into one of the pods, but I'll take the flavor first and then eat around the spices. Service has always been fast, friendly, and accurate since we have mostly chosen takeout post pandemic. And I also love that they will follow requests when calling in an order such as making a curry or vindaloo as ass-blastingly-hot as I want. Give Delicious Curry House your business. You will not regret your decision! read more

First time ordering take out from here and was not disappointed. Their curries are really flavorful without being overly spicy. You'll find actual spice pod in their dishes, like cardamon and star anise. We ordered our favorite Indian curries (lamb vindaloo, baingan bharta, chicken tikka masala, and aloo ghobi) and they were all delicious. Their naan wasn't as fluffy as I'm used to, but still good. I was very pleasantly surprised to find this quality of Indian food in Oakland. It rivals some of my favorite Indian restaurants in Fremont. read more

I always park close to the restaurant when I go to mintos (the smoothie place down the street)I always see it's busy so why not.. I had a hard time ordering because I couldn't choose a what veggie I wanted to order.. I had the 3 butter chicken,lentils, chickpeas, veggie briyani and naan.. .. it took around 20 mins for the order to arrive.

Food: 9.5/10 Service: N/A takeout out only (however very friendly owner and would like honest opinions/reviews to help him succeed) Value: 8/10 Portion size: medium This is a new restaurant as of 11 months ago. I was eager to try it because the Indian restaurant before this one was my favorite. I ordered the chicken Tikka masala and the lamb biryani which are both my staple dishes I get at Indian restaurants so I can compare. Top notch! The lamb biryani I think is the best I've ever had! The lamb was very tender and soft and this restaurant give you quite a bit of lamb too! The flavor is the rice had a good amount of spice to it and you can order how spicy you want your dishes to be. I got medium which to me is the normal spice level of these dishes. You can also tell them on a scale of 1-10 too if you would like to be more precise! The chicken Tikka masala was delicious as well. The chicken was soft but coild be more tender. The sauce was delicious and you could taste the tomatoes and garlic. Both of the dishes tasted very fresh and this place did not disappoint! I'm so happy I finally tried it out! They are also very fast too. I put my order in and it was ready in less than 10 minutes! read more

Lamb Palak, Vegetable Samosa with Garbanzo Chana Masala, chutney and nan is what I ordered this time. However I've tried plenty of things on the menu. Everything is cooked on spot now no more lunch buffet. Hot piping fresh delicious and aromatic. This is my third time eating here. It's always authentic and satisfying. I like most of their dishes provided. As for the restaurant. I don't think they were able to keep up with the lunch buffet as before so now everything is to order. The restaurant is nicely decorated but not many customers visit. I don't believe customers are aware of their delicious food. Such a bummer, I would hate to see this restaurant close because they can't keep up their finances to run the business; when the food is actually great. Parking is kind of difficult to find unless you pay a private lot. I usually just double park and order my food to go. read more
