The gentlemen helping were kind and helpful -- Upon entering, we asked to dine in and were invited to a table by the TVs. The waiter took our orders and helped with recommendations, quick to bring extra items we requested, and even brought out my water bottle that I forgot at the end of dinner. Extremely kind, inviting and created a welcoming ambiance and experience. The butter chicken and goat curry were fire but the best dish was... The lamb biryani. 40% of the dish was of lamb. Very rare for a restaurant to provide such a big proportion of meat to carb ratio. The garlic naan was perfect, tasted fresh and steamed as I pulled it apart. Other places I've been to recently, I drank so much water due to the saltiness but not here. Overall, amazing experience and I want to come back to try the chicken tikka noodles.

Santos is well versed and can give you specific recommendations as well as to let you know how it would be prepared. Our group was blown away by this. Personally, I had the Vegetable Nepali Thali, medium spicy. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I'd order it again and maybe try some meat the next time. Will I be back? You damn right, I AM! Parking is sometimes limited right in front of the restaurant, but there is plenty of parking real close by. You got Parking lot 4 on B Street and the Cinemark parking garage nearby on Foothill blvd.

We ordered the chicken mono, matar panner, and lamb vindaloo. Everything was delicious! The naan and paratha was 10/10 and honestly could have passed on the roti. It was more like a tortilla & wasn't a huge fan.

Favorite Indian Restaurant, Hayward…read more August 2026 My nephew was craving for Tandoori and Butter chicken so we came here for much. We were served with appetizer called Papadum (Papad) which is are thin, crispy discs made from lentil, chickpea, or rice flour. They are served as an appetizer with mint chutney or tamarind sauce. They were so good! Next we ordered the Tandoori chicken and their lunch specials: Butter chicken, Chicken Vinaloo and Paneer Tikka Masala. All came with naan and side dishes. We also ordered the onion naan too. All the chicken entrees were very tender and fall off the bones. The Chicken Vinaloo was my favorite because of the tender, juicy chicken and the Vinaloo sauce was a tad spicy which I loved! I need to order an entree by itself next time! There was a rice pudding as a side dish they had and it was really good! It used to be plain and bland which I didn't like, now they added sliced almonds, golden raisins and other stuff that made it sweet. Perfect way to end the meal! Services were excellent! The waiter had all our orders correct and he was attentive. Definitely coming back for the weekend when they serve the buffet! Highly recommend this place.

Love Indian Buffets and I miss the Favorite Indian restaurant in San Ramon. I was excited to try…read morethis location especially when I read they offered fresh grilled meats that came around to the tables. I was impressed by the buffet offerings and spacious nice interior. The fresh grilled meats served table side is a nice idea but poorly executed. There weren't very many and it kept running out by the time it reached our table. The lamb was good but the grilled chicken kebabs were dry. My favorite buffet offerings were all the veggies plus the tandoori chicken and naan. The zucchini, cauliflower and chickpea dishes were delicious. The tandoori chicken was fresh and cooked perfectly. Unfortunately the meat curries were bland for me with little spice and heat. Plus the chicken in all the curries were very dry. I'm happy I tried it but not sure I'd come back.

Kabila never disappoints! Whenever we're in the mood for Indian food and want a place that's…read moreconsistently good, Kabila is always a safe choice. This time, I tried Chicken Do Pyaza for the first time. Surprisingly, I couldn't find any photos of it on Yelp, but I decided to give it a try, and I'm so glad I did. It turned out to be an excellent choice. I personally prefer dishes that have some texture rather than just a smooth gravy, and this dish delivered exactly that. The combination of flavorful gravy, onions, and other ingredients created a wonderful texture and made every bite enjoyable. Of course, we also ordered their dal, which is always delicious, comforting, and full of flavor. And no meal at Kabila is complete without their gulab jamun. It's one of their standout desserts and always hits the spot. Overall, another great meal. Consistently tasty food, generous flavors, and dishes that keep us coming back. Highly recommend

I have frequently tried their lunch buffet. Among the items I usually enjoy are the pakodas…read more(fish/vegetable), their kadhi and malai kofta (when available), and the lamb curry (though I find only the smaller pieces are cooked well enough for me. Their dahi/raita can be very good, and their desserts (especially the Gulab Jamun) can be good. The rice is fairly good too. In general, the appetizers are always good if eaten while still warm-hot. I also like that they do not use excess chilies to season their food, though sometimes, their vegetarian dishes could use a little more salt. Service has generally been very friendly.

I've been coming to Moon Indian Cuisine in Hayward since I was 17, and now I'm 29 -- that alone…read moresays a lot about how amazing this place is. Over the years, the quality and flavor have always stayed consistent. Their butter chicken, curry, biryani rice, and samosas never disappoint, and the jalebi and gulab jamun are some of my favorite desserts ever. The food is always flavorful, comforting, and authentic. The staff has always been welcoming, and it truly feels like a hometown favorite for me. If a restaurant can keep you coming back for over a decade, you know they're doing something right. Highly recommend!

Came here during lunch time with the bf because he keeps mentioning this place and how he likes…read moretheir mango lassi and butter chicken. We got the pani puri, the samosas, and we both got their lunch combo. The pani puri was like eating stale tortillas, like they bought the economy pack and will keep using them regardless of freshness. The samosas were good, not really rememberable or better than other Indian food spots. The bf got their butter chicken and the sauce was good. But I don't go to Indian places to get the butter chicken. I actually don't remeber what I got for my lunch combo, but it wasn't anthing to write home about. Pricing was okay given it was the lunch time special pricing. Honestly the atmosphere felt like a family shop where no one wants to work there but it pays the bills. There's a counter filled with unlabeled treats. They looked good but I had no idea what they were. Service was the minimum which doesn't really bother me but some people enjoy it. Felt really cramped filled with tables and people who think they're having an exotic lunch instead of McDonald's. This place is not for me and after I told by bf this he agreed. Kinda hard to find, it's like a blink and you miss it. Parking is sparse, I parked down the street.

The food here is delicious. We have ordered multiple times and had great food!…read more I have to update my review, to warn being duped about the "deals"...such a shame! Uber eats gave a "buy one get one free" for curry chicken. It's was $18, but then when I went to order it and the cart automatically gave me 2, and I added $3.40 for a side of rice, the cart updated to $25! The math did not work out, but I ordered it anyway. Then it arrived with no rice! That was a mistake, and I'm ok with that...mistakes happen. But what I'm not ok with, they just took one chicken curry dinner and split it into 2, for the "buy one get one free"! I always eat about half what they give and the rest for leftovers, so I know their portion sizes. It was such a rip off! I paid more for less...just so wrong.

I won't lie, I haven't been able to venture into the Indian food scene as much as I want to, but…read moremostly because I have no idea what to order or where to start (plus dairy allergy doesn't help)! Visiting this Family-owned restaurant in Hayward was a great experience and we learned a lot about the different dishes. The food was FULL of flavor here, but the curries were the winners! I'm definitely coming back here to try the others!! You can tell that everything is fresh and made from scratch and the menu has both veg and non-veg options. What we ordered: * Samosa Chana * Pani Puri * Fish Pakora * Chicken Tikka Masala (highly recommend!) * Rogan Josh (highly recommend!) * Bhindi Masala (highly recommend!) * Karahi Paneer (highly recommend!) * Chicken Biryani * Garlic Naan They also do Full-service catering for events and parties. Don't be fooled though when you're driving down Mission Blvd trying to keep up with the speed of traffic, this place shares a parking lot with a car repair shop, so there has to be a metal fence in front - they're still Open for business!

The buffet is available on weekends (I believe from 11 AM to 2 PM) and offers a nice selection of flavorful dishes, along with free drinks! You can also order items from the regular menu that aren't included in the buffet. I ordered samosas to compliment the meal I was having with my brother, and they were delicious. The staff is friendly and attentive, and they do a great job keeping the buffet stocked. Whenever a tray started running low, fresh food appeared almost immediately. That attention to detail made the experience feel well-managed and welcoming. The atmosphere is another plus. The newer buffet area gives the restaurant a unique feel, but traditional indoor seating is also available if you prefer. Overall, Flavor of India offers a great combination of variety, service, and atmosphere.
