I'll start with the gentleman that assisted me through my dining experience. That would be Jot. He is simply amazing. Not only did he ensure my dinner was perfection, he also gave me direction on ordering. And I'm glad I took his advice. Thank you Jot! The food was spectacular. I started with Aloo Tikki Chaat. I've never had this anywhere. The flavors are layered and delicious and the textures range from a mid-soft cooked garbanzo bean to crunchy bits of red onion. Complexity that works in harmony. It was delicious! For my entree, I ordered Butter Chicken with Naan Bread. Naan may seem simple, but this one was just a 10 out of 10. Yes, it was better than others I typically have. And the Butter Chicken was amazing. Creamy, lightly spicy, and ultra savory. I relished each and every bite. I could go on and on, but I'll stop by saying it was the best Indian Cuisine I think I've ever had. The restaurant itself is simple, but more importantly, CLEAN. Comfortable seating as I sat in a booth. It was welcoming even though I was dressed super casual. I like it. And yes, given the chance, I'll be back! Thanks again Jot! read more

Another amazing visit to Indian Cafe in Lodi. We tried a new dish this time. Paneer Pakora, which is like a cheese fritter. So delicious! I need to remember to order that again next time. We also had our regular order of Palak Paneer and Chicken Tikka Masala with rice and garlic naan. Always a favorite of ours and we order it with medium heat which leaves our noses running like a faucet. We love this place. read more

Hello, me and a friend were there today. We had the butter chicken with rice, garlic naan bread and the vegetable Pakora. Everything was great, but the vegetable pakora was cooked in dirty oil. It should've been a golden brown, but it was a dark brown, like dirty grease. Please change your dirty grease that is currently in your deep fryer. read more

I always see this little cafe when I am getting gas but just never had the time to stop in until recently when we were in the area getting propane. We walked in to some catchy Indian culture music videos playing on the television, and 3 associates welcoming us to sit where we like. We were brought some water to start and then placed out orders. Just smelling the freshness of our food being cooked so close to us made me salivate even more excited to try the food.,once presented to our table we dug right in to our chilli chicken and garlic naan. So warming and fresh and delicious. Mmm. After about 20 minutes we were asked how are food was and if we would like to order anything else. As we did, and chose to get the smothered samosas with chickpeas and delicious chutney sauce and cream on top. I really like the brightness of the decor that was hanging up and around the establishment. Eye catching. This place is in a great busy location for travelers but also good for the locals as we saw a good amount of food delivery drivers picking up orders for customers. If you enjoy, spices, heat, flavor and colorful food presentation.,you'll see this in your meals here.( cant wait to have our next meal here read more

Indian Cafe - Lodi - Chana Masala, Fish Tikka, garlic naan - Indian Near Me - Lodi, California

I really loved the gobi manchurian it was super tasty! I ordered lamb curry, garlic naan and also tandoori chicken. The chicken didn't really have that much flavor and I wished that it was more flavorful. I really loved the lamb curry, rice and naan! I'd come back just to order some manchurian. They have inside seating here and also do take out as well. I'd recommend it! read more

Great butter chicken, goat curry, lamb dishes and nanny bread. Quick pick up for to go orders.

Food was really good and service was good as well. After a long time had a nice roti and Punjabi dishes. Would definitely recommend .

First time here. Place was clean and nice. They had booths or tables. Pitcher of water and cups were already on the tables. Server was really sweet and attentive. Food came out quick. Fresh and hot off the stove. My daughter and husband shared the NON VEG COMBO. Veg Smosa(appetizer) , Butter Chicken, Lamb Curry, 2 bowls of rice, Garlic naan ( so good) , Gulab Jamun(dessert). You can choose your spice levels on the dishes. We chose spicy and it was perfect. I would definitely recommend this place and will return again. read more

you guys. oh my gosh! i haven't had indian food this good in a while. every single time i took a bite i smiled because of how delicious it was. we got the chicken tikka masala and coconut chicken along with rice and garlic and regular naan. my personal fave was the coconut chicken while andy preferred the chicken tikka masala. both were so delicious, flavorful, and creamy. i was in heaven. the rice was fresh and soft. the naan was good, but we've had better. because of how delicious everything else was i choose to believe today was an off day for the naan. it wasn't bad just seemed overly chewy and not fresh. it was hard to tear and just not the best texture. flavor wise it was fine. we also picked up our order a good 20 min after it was ready so definitely could have been an us problem. we will definitely be back very soon and will be frequent visitors here. read more

Indian Cafe - Lodi - Chicken Tikka Masala, Chicken Coconut, Naan, Garlic Naan - Indian Near Me - Lodi, California

LOVE this place! It's right off highway 5 at CA 12 and has become our requisite go-to whenever we're passing through. We usually get the Non-Veg Combo for Two. It comes with two samosas, and enough garlic naan, butter chicken, and curry lamb, for us to both leave full after having a very tasty lunch AND have enough leftover for us to have a full dinner at home the next night. For desert, a very sweet Gulab Jamun. At ~$30, it's one of the best deals on the open road! read more

The food and service here is great! They have a good selection on their menu and everything tasted so yummy. We ordered medium for our curries but found that it wasn't that spicy, I would go for medium or extra spicy next time. I love pani puri and I was so happy they had it on the menu. Looking forward to coming back for lunch read more

The restaurant is a bit small, but as soon as you walk in the smell is AMAZING. The spices hit your nose just perfectly, the taste is AMAZING too. The garlic naan was perfect!! The service is amazing they are always asking if you need anything. The are super nice, super attentive. I can't wait to go back & try their other foods. read more

One of the best Indian restaurants I've had on the west side, and being a truck driver it's in a very convenient spot. My wife and I always get the Non-Veg combo which consists of two dishes with rice (default is one butter chicken and lamb curry but we both got butter chicken), garlic nan, two samosas, and Galob Janum (dessert). To drink we got the strawberry milkshake which was okay and a mango lassi which was pretty good. The service is always fast. The food is 100% worth it and absolutely delicious, best butter chicken I've had. read more

Best authentic Indian food, very fresh and warm. the price is also reasonable and very friendly staff. If you like masala chai, this is the place to go. They have many choices of vegetarian food. I would recommend this cafe to anyone. Deo and Kusum Singh read more

We very much enjoyed our visit to this new spot in Flag City. The space is located next to Starbucks and has been nicely done. Bollywood blares from the overhead tv adding to the overall ambiance. Service is prompt and efficient. There's a bit of a language barrier which prevents service from being more engaging but I applaud their tenacity! There is seated/ waiter service, but the bill is counter paid. The food is really the star of this production. My dining partner described it as clean food. It does seem like the recipes have been perfected and passed down through generations. The menu options are varied and there are many vegetarian dishes. We sampled three and were pleased with our selections. Portions and prices are reasonable. We will definitely be back! read more

They have only been open a little over a month. We were not in the mood to dine in, so we got our order to go. Very Clean restaurant, Delicious food. Great service. And I love that we have another option for Indian food. Hubby had his favorite Chicken Tikka Masala and instead of my usual Butter Chicken, I tried the Shahi Paneer... comes with rice, and we ordered a couple of Garlic Naan. Loved that they gave plenty of rice because most of the Indian restaurants we've been to, we need to order more. We will definitely be back soon read more

We just discovered this new Indian restaurant a few months back and it is now our favorite. Food is fresh and tastes great! Some of our favorite dishes so far have been their chicken entrees and apps as well as the fresh vegetable curries. Highly recommend! read more

Stumbled on this very busy restaurant frequented by many people from India in the surrounding areas. Friendly staff, clean, well lit, fun ambiance with awesome Panjabi music and videos! I had a blast listening to the upbeat music and seeing the videos! ;) Seriously reasonable prices and I definitely will return if I'm in the area again. It's a tiny restaurant next to Starbucks but they were extremely busy on a Saturday night with Takeout and Dine-in customers like myself! Thank You for your yummy food! I hope you can get a wine and beer license soon! I would have ordered even more food and stayed longer if I could have had some wine or beer! ;) read more

We have eaten at the Indian Cafe right off of I-5 several times recently. In fact, we have even driven down from Sacramento to eat there-45 minute drive. The food is that good! We have also had the Thali's (both Veg and Non-Veg). Delicious! Also, the servers are very responsive and try to help in any way possible either selections of dishes, level of spice, etc. All in all, we will be stopping many more times. read more

I have eaten here a few times. Always fresh and hot. Garlic naan was fresh. Butter chicken was perfectly spiced, served with rice. Rice was light and fluffy. I only drink water, and it came in a big pitcher. The restaurant was clean and perfect temperature inside. The service is fast and efficient. Please support local family run restaurants read more

This was such a nice surprise for me. I did not realize Lodi had a delicious and authentic Indian restaurant. Great options. All dishes were amazing. We even doubled up on a few after eating and took some to go. Will be back for uste! read more

I came for the veggie thali. I've had it before and it been pretty good. Tonite though they gave me grilled paneer and a not very good paneer masala as the 2 veg dishes - super boring. Oh well - I'll probably check out the other Indian restaurants in Lodi and Stockton before returning. The chai was really good though. read more

Indian Cafe - Lodi - Indian Near Me - Lodi, California

indian café was honestly one of the most average indian food experiences i've had -- not terrible, but definitely not great. the portion sizes were ridiculously tiny, especially for a place that advertises itself as family-style. the food itself was just okay. nothing stood out, and it definitely didn't feel worth the price. the naan was small and the entrées barely had enough to share, which made the steep pricing feel even more frustrating. the staff was fine, but they seemed like they didn't really want to be there. we felt rushed to order and the service didn't feel very welcoming. overall, it just didn't live up to the expectations, and i honestly wouldn't come back. read more

Amazing food and ambiance. The staff are as friendly as can be and the food is fairly priced. Tons of choices and a lot of safe options for those not deep into Indian cuisine. We've eaten here twice and will be again soon! A+ read more
