At dinner, we were seated quickly (on a Friday at 6:45), but it then took 20 minutes to get our order taken, and another half hour for food to come.

Incredible new Indian discovery for me!…read more I was headed to Kiya Sushi next-door, but the incredible smells wafting through the open door here pulled me inside. We are very lucky to have so many Indian restaurants in Fremont, especially with those that specialize in different regional cuisines. I ordered the Apollo fish, special chicken curry, vegetable korma, rice, and garlic naan. I also had a mango lassi (and then a chai to go for later). Everything was impressive. I actually said, "Wow!" out loud when I tasted the chicken curry, even though I was dining solo. I can't wait to come back to try fish and goat curries and biriyani. Will have to bring friends so that we can order more dishes.

I have walked by this plaza many times, and every single time, I was met with an incredible,…read morehard-to-miss fragrance coming from Naga's Kitchen. I always told myself that if a place smells this good, the food had to be amazing too. I am so glad I finally tried it, because the food wasn't just good, it was great! I will definitely be coming back. Here is a breakdown of everything we ordered during our visit: Appetizers Chicken Lollipop (Dry): Flavorful, well-cooked, and wonderfully moist. Best of all, it had more meat and less batter than most other places, paired with a delicious dipping sauce. It has a slight, pleasant heat without burning your tongue, which is great for focusing on pure flavor. Naga's Special Apollo Fish: This was the absolute standout of the meal! It was packed with incredible flavor, featuring a fantastic mix of yogurt, curry leaves, and green chillies that hit the perfect balance of tangy, cool, and spicy. Main Entrée & Breads Butter Chicken: A wonderful, harmonious blend of sweetness and spice, leaning slightly on the sweeter side. It paired like a dream with our garlic naan. (Tip: If you prefer more heat, you can always check with the staff about customization!) Garlic Naan: Soft, perfectly cooked, and completely free of that dreaded rubbery texture. It had a generous amount of garlic, a slight crunch, and was the ideal vehicle for the butter chicken. Drinks Fresh Lime Soda (Sweet): Refreshing and crisp. You can choose between salty or sweet, and we went with sweet. Pro-tip: Make sure to stir it thoroughly before drinking, as the sweetness settles at the bottom! Service, Ambience & Practical Details Service & Ambience: There are plenty of tables, though it can get busy during peak hours. Even when crowded, the staff is exceptionally quick, attentive, and prompt with their service. Parking: The complex has plenty of parking spots, though it can get challenging on busy days, and some spots are a bit narrow. Keep in mind that the spots directly in front of the restaurant are mostly 10 to 30 minute parking zones, so it is best to park a little further back in the lot. Final Fun Note: Because the restaurant has such a wonderfully strong food aroma, be prepared to leave smelling deliciously like your meal! It is a small price to pay for such fantastic food and service. Highly recommended!

They have a bright and airy space, although the fake plants at the entrance make you wonder if this really is an upscale place. They also have an outdoor patio where we saw a group dining with one of their furry friends. For appetizers, we ordered the Kerala chicken fry - well seasoned and crispy with a delicious dipping sauce. For the entrees, we got a potlam goat biryani - a delicious biryani wrapped in a banana leaf served table side. We also got the Fish Pollichathu, a fish grilled with a tomato based topping that was wrapped in a banana leaf and served with a tapioca mash and rice. All the dishes were delicious. The portions are generous and we ended up with leftovers to take back home. We also received a complimentary gulab jamun creme brulee since I was part of their mailing list and a pistachio tiramisu to celebrate our special occasion. A truly wonderful experience that made our evening special. We will look forward to returning to sample more of their offerings.

I made a reservation for 5 and we were seated immediately. They are a stroller friendly restaurant and were able to accommodate a newborns stroller. We ordered a lot of food. The portions are large and well worth it. - Karuvepilai Shrimp (6 pieces) - this was delicious, juicy and came with a nice chutney - Thattukada Chicken Fry - huge quantity and we loved sharing this - thali non veg came with lamb, special Chola biriyani, white rice, among other curries. This was a great way to try different some of the different dishes they offer, and is a huge serving. It had some veg sides that came with it and some of these dishes are unique and not available to order otherwise - chicken curry and 3 Malabar parottas - this was a curry leaf based curry that was pretty tasty. I'm not sure I would reorder this because I felt it lacked some salt and was very oily. - Chicken Biriyani - This is a huge serving and came with bone-in chicken as well as fried chicken, wrapped in a banana leaf. We ordered too much food but it was nice to have some leftover to take home! One thing to note was gratuity of 18% was automatically charged for us, but I wasn't aware that they do that for a party of 5.

The flavors here are absolutely incredible-bold, perfectly balanced, and full of depth.read more

Thanks to fellow Yelpers for helping me find my new favorite Indian spot…read more Fremont has absolutely no shortage of solid Indian restaurants, but Masala Republic still outshines them. I love their version of butter chicken and the Hyderabad mixed vegetable korma (a dish I always order if I can find it). Garlic naan was also delicious. Will be back to try more of the breads and dishes. I've gotten takeout a few times and when I have more time, will be sure to dine in. Update: Dined in a week later for lunch and tried the tandoori chicken and bagara baingan. Excellent!

Highly recommend if you love authentic South Indian food.

DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE…read more We ordered Masala Dosa and Mini Idly in the early afternoon, and the food tasted old and stale. After eating, several members of my family experienced upset stomach symptoms. The chutneys were overly watered down and seemed like they were served straight from the freezer.

I'm currently consulting a doctor, and if food poisoning is confirmed, I will be reporting this to the health department.
