lamb vindaloo, garlic naan
Jeron W.

We came to House of Curries on a Wednesday early evening and we were the only ones there, but to be fair we were quite early so it was before the dinner rush. The restaurant, as others have mentioned, is mostly self service, so be prepared to get your own waters, dishes, and utensils, which isn't a big deal. We ordered a lamb vindaloo, garlic naan, and a chicken biryani. lamb vindaloo paired with garlic naan (4/5): big fan of the lamb vindaloo, strong flavors and quite good portions of lamb. The garlic naan also had a great garlic flavor and good texture and consistency chicken biryani (3/5): this was a bit of a letdown. the biryani portions were huge and we even had to take it to-go, but the chicken was just too dry and overcooked. this is close to where I live so I'd be down to give them another chance, but probably keeping away from chicken dishes

Cheese Naan
Austin W.

My wife and I recently made some chicken tikka masala at home and were looking to enjoy it with some naan, so we ordered two pieces for takeout -- a garlic and a cheese naan, along with a mango lassi from House of Curries. We called ahead over the phone to place our order and was told our order would be ready in about 10 minutes. Because my wife had placed the order, I wasn't sure what the total would be when I went to pick up the order. When the food was rang up at the counter, I was a bit sticker shocked. The total came out to be close to $17, which included a 4% surcharge for using credit card. This definitely felt a bit expensive, but lesson learned -- check the menu prices next time to avoid sticker shock. Pricing aside, the cheese naan is some of the best we've had. Oftentimes with cheese naan, its made with as little cheese as possible to qualify as a cheese naan. The one here is filled generously with mozzarella cheese and has a wonderful cheese pull. The garlic naan was similarly very well made: I loved how much garlic garnished the top of the naan. If the naan is an accurate preview of what the rest of the menu tastes like, I'll happily be back to try out more of their menu. Will definitely bring cash though, to avoid the surcharge.

The food and service was great! It's a very authentic restaurant. They have great flavor in all of their dishes. They have outdoor and indoor seating. With lots of room for big parties if needed.

Good food. Consistent in quality. Very nice staff. Plenty of dining space and options on the menu as well as weekly specials. Food is fresh and served hot. It's a order at the counter and seat yourself place. Free delicious tea with dine in service. Parking can be hard sometimes but not terrible. A true staple in the community.

Mango lassi filled to the brim!
Lisa K.

Like the name implies, House of Curries is a homey place with no frills but good food. You order at the counter, self-serve water, plates, utensils, and the complimentary chai, and someone will soon bring out your delicious order. We got a lamb vibdaloo and a chicken tikka masala, the garlic naan, a side of rice, and a mango lassi. The lamb was tender, the chicken a bit on the dry side, the naan was delicious, and the mango lassi filled to the brim! If you want some solid comfort food, do not skip this place!

Lamb Curry
Vicky Y.

Came in around 4:00 pm for a late lunch today (Saturday) and the restaurant was completely empty which meant the food came fairly quickly within 15 minutes of ordering! The prices are a lot lower than other places that I have frequented so that was nice! When you eat in the restaurant, it is self serve to grab plates, water, utensils + chai is in the house, it is $2 to go. We ordered garlic naan, vegetable biryani, vegetable samosa and lamb curry. One thing that I noticed about each of the dishes is that nothing had a very strong taste? Not even the tamarind and mint cilantro chutney. Which is kind of unusual for Indian food bc I'm used to being punched in the face w flavor. The biryani does not come with raita so you must order it separately. Nothing really stood out to me as particularly special so the meal was just ok! The lamb is extremely tender and melts in your mouth which is nice. Overall, I probably wouldn't return if I was in the area again but I'm glad I tried it!

Garlic Naan, Chicken Tikka Masala, Palak Paneer, Plain Rice
Connie C.

Although it's not the best Indian food I've had, I'd give it another chance. This was my first time here and was a little disappointed that the food took a while to come out and when it did the temperature was barely just warm, like it had been sitting for a few minutes before it was brought out to us. I felt like the garlic naan was pretty plain in flavor and didn't taste fresh. Free (unless taken to-go) hot chai. It is self-serve and you can add sugar as you'd like. Parking lot out front, which is very convenient! Inside is quite plain and outdated in decoration, but that didn't bother me. I did enjoy the chicken tikka masala and the palak paneer, Indian food craving was satisfied!

We arrived with our kids about 10 minutes before closing for a quick dinner. The cashier was extremely unwelcoming, with no courtesy or effort to accommodate us. We were told nearly half the menu was unavailable and that everything had to be served in takeout boxes. The policies themselves weren't the main issue--the dismissive way they were communicated was. I understand arriving close to closing can be inconvenient, but customers should still be treated respectfully. We were prepared to spend over $100 yet were made to feel like an inconvenience. Having worked in hospitality, I believe basic customer service matters as much as the food. Ownership should look into this, as the service at this restaurant is poor and needs improvement. This was one of the worst service experiences I've had in a long time, and we won't be returning.

Love Pakistani Halal spot Al-Maida…read more Tucked in residential area of North Oakland, I usually get some takeout if I'm feeling like I need some hearty and warm curries or Oakland's best naan. I really like their lamb curry and garlic naan. I've also had their falafel wrap which was tasty, but naan by itself is elite. It's like as big as a plate placemat. HUGE. Curry is so flavorful, can't go wrong with any protein or any base. You can call to order. LOVE the lil market as well. You can get delicious treats like saffron ice cream and non-Israeli dates. I tried Ajwa dates for the first time here and they're my favorite type of dates now. Way less sweet than Medjool and much better for those who need to control their blood sugars. Shoutout to the chef and the sweet man who's always washing endless silverware. You guys are the goats, serving the community while fasting during Ramadan!

The grandson was super quick to let me know that the garlic naan was the go-to which I highly appreciated and listened to his sage advice with no regrets. Understandably with just the two of them, the food didn't come super quick. But I got to walk around the aisles and explore all the different foods and ingredients they sold. They also have a huuuge frozen dessert selection which was enticing but I will come back for that another day. The food came out fresh and piping hot. I devoured it in the car and it was all delicious, wonderfully seasoned and so so filling.

If you're looking for authentic Pakistani & Indian food that tastes exactly like home, this place…read moreis an absolute MASHALLAH. This is not just a restauran - it is an experience filled with hospitality and the comforting feeling of being with family. Mr. Waqar & Mrs. Rabia are most humble people you will ever meet. From the moment you walk in, they welcome you with such sincerity and affection that you instantly feel at home. Mrs. Rabia has a remarkable way of making every guest feel special. She treats everyone with the same care & love a mother would show her own children. The food is outstanding, with generous portions and authentic flavors that transport you straight back to Pakistan/India. For breakfast lovers, the Halwa Puri with cholay is among the best I have had (available any time of the day, 7 days a week, is a huge bonus. The homemade parathas remind me of my mother's cooking, my absolute favorite & something I crave regularly. Chicken Biryani with Shami Kabab bring back memories of home with every bite. The Chapli Kabab paired with fresh paratha is simply irresistible-I can never get enough of it. The Beef Haleem is rich, authentic, & prepared exactly the way it should be. The Lamb Shank served with biryani rice is another exceptional dish that showcases the quality and authenticity of their cooking. Our first visit was only a month ago & since then we have already returned around 10 times. That alone speaks volumes. If you want delicious food, authentic flavors, generous portions, and hospitality that makes you feel like family, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommended.

This is more like 3.5 star…read more Was at an event near by, found this place on yelp and decided to try it out. There was maybe one other customer when we reached and I guess that helped with getting the food quicker. I think , most of their curries / entrees are pre made . They also mentioned that they use frozen naans ( probably the ones sold at Indian stores ) but make the parathas fresh. Which was true. It came out piping hot and it's huge in size. We decided to get 2 different combos , so as to try more options. Got Paneer tikka masala, chana masala, palak paneer and daal makhani. The Daal makhani was not as creamy / buttery as it's supposed to be. All tasted decent , and on the milder side I would say. I feel all of them could have used a little more salt. It's reasonably priced . They also had back patio kind of area, which would be nice on a warm day.
