They should add Rumali roti in the menu it would go with malai chaap really good. Service is good but the speed is kind of slow. Overall the place is good and the light. read more

Very disappointing experience at Junoon in Manteca, California. We visited today and ordered the Amritsari Kulcha and Malai Paneer Tikka. Unfortunately, neither dish was enjoyable. The Amritsari Kulcha was extremely dry and had very little flavor. The masala inside was also very dry. Although the kulcha was crispy on top, there was barely any ghee or butter on it. We were given only a very small amount of butter, and there was no yogurt served with the kulcha. We ordered extra yogurt, but unfortunately, the yogurt was very sour.ask for yogurt and they charge for that.and the chole with kulcha taste was very gross and didn't eat that too. We hv to ask butter for that so at least we can eat kulcha. The Malai Paneer Tikka was also very disappointing. It had almost no flavor, and the taste was unpleasant enough that we did not want to eat it.we just wasted our money and time there. I had same bad experience in past almost year ago.so never went there. My kids went there 2 years ago and had bad experience they never went back to this restaurant. Because they ordered tandoori chicken which is very dry chewy unpleasant and unflavored. We regret why we went to this restaurant just wasted time and money. Overall, the food did not meet our expectations at all. We were really looking forward to a good Indian meal, but unfortunately, the quality, flavor, and preparation of the dishes we ordered were very disappointing. I hope the restaurant takes this feedback seriously and improves the food and overall quality. read more

Junoon Indian Cuisine & Bar - Amritsari kulcha - Indian Near Me - Manteca, California

Visited on Aug 2 2026, party of 9, stopping on our way back from Yosemite. Several dishes were oversalted to the point of being inedible, including the seekh kebab. When we flagged it with our server, they offered to remake the dish -- but since nearly everything we ordered was oversalted, we didn't have confidence a remake would come out any different, so we declined. More concerning: my vegetarian friend's dal makhani had a distinct fish smell, which raises real cross-contamination concerns for anyone with dietary restrictions or allergies. Based on this visit, I'd recommend caution, especially if you're vegetarian or have food allergies. read more

This is a bit of a hard review to write but I will try to be honest and objective. Place is clean and the service was decent. They are trying to creat a high end brand but have a long way to go. The first thing I want to mention is they clear the tables by dumping plates loudly in a plastic bin. That creates so much noise that it spoils the whole atmosphere of the place. The menu- they have a 10-11 page menu with more than 100 items. I would encourage them to reduce items by more than 50% and focus on quality. The veg momos were terrible and were clearly a frozen item which was steamed at the last minute. The filling was raw and the skin was torn. We sent it back and still got charged for it. Didn't realize until later otherwise I would have objected. Some appetizer items such as fish fry and chicken momo were decent but the gravies didn't seem fresh. I wish them well but they seem to have a lot of kinks to iron before they can become a successful restaurant. read more

Very elegant and chic vibes once you walk in. Wanted to try the new restaurant. The service was very fast. Everyone was very friendly. I ordered the chicken birayni, butter chicken, garlic naan and roti. Surprisingly, the butter chicken was sweet. It was different from other butter chicken I tried. It was very good. The chicken on both plates were super tender! And the breads were delicious! I would definitely recommend this place read more

I've been wanting to check out Junoon since I saw they opened. I decided to come in and order take out right around the time of opening. They have plenty of tables, as well as seating at a full bar. Upon approaching the counter I was quickly greeted and handed a menu, at which point I went meticulously through their many options! (Currently on a plant-based deal, so it encouraged me to try some new things!) The steamed veg momos were quite salty in bites, so maybe not something I'd go for again. I would be interested to try the chicken ones down the road and maybe give the fried version a shot.) My saag paneer also had bites that were a little more salty than others, but overall I enjoyed the dish and would order it again. Texturally it's different than what I've experienced being that it had more of a blended consistency. This didn't play a role in my opinion of the dish, just an observation! :-) This is the first time I've had samosa chaat that was between a temp of cool and warm, but enjoyed the crisp bite of the samosa and the dish was seasoned well. I'd definitely order that again. Lastly, I gave the mushroom masala a try. I had no idea what to expect, as I've never had it before, but the mushrooms were nice and meaty, being a filling component of my meal. I look forward to stopping by in the future to try some additional dishes! I'm not sure if they have any specialty cocktails. Looking over the menu provided, a majority lists the hard liquors in house, the wines and beers available, and then a list of some of the basic cocktails you'd expect with a full bar. I'd be curious to see if there were any Signature drinks. All in all, I'm looking forward to the leftovers I have for the next day or two! read more

It used to be my favorite restaurant, but not anymore. Staff and customer service is good . But The quality has gone down a lot. The last couple of times I ordered dal makhani, it was really disappointing. It used to be rich and flavorful, but now it's barely cooked and mostly just watery cream with hardly any dal. I'm really disappointed. I really don't know what happened to them -- maybe the ownership changed or they don't have the same cook anymore. read more

Wow! I am so happy I found this gem of a restaurant in Manteca. The food was absolutely amazing. Every dish I had was cooked to perfection. The prices were really reasonable. The service person was very humble and accommodating. I believe it's the best restaurant in our little town right now. If you like Indian food or just wanna give it a try I highly recommend it read more

4.5 stars. Brand new restaurant, very friendly staff, very good food, but we got it pretty bland, probably because we asked for mild food. We ordered the paneer dosa, Rogan Josh, shahi paneer, grilled chicken. The chicken was pretty good, a bit drier than I'm used to and could use a bit more marinade. The paneer dosa was very good, the dosa was crispy and paneer was soft. The Rogan Josh was quite nice, lots of meat on the bone and the gravy was delicious. Was great with both naans and rice. The shahi paneer was kinda sweet, the kids like it a lot. Overall great place. Will come back when visiting gray wolf. read more

Ordered carry out tonight. It was pretty good. I have never seen veg noodles at an Indian restaurant before, so I ordered it spicy to try it out. It ended up being my favorite dish. The actual Indian dishes were alright--the meats were all tender and fresh. The flavors were there, maybe a bit too rich on some of the gravies but otherwise pretty good! Expansive menu with a lot of choices. Worth a try! read more

Tried this new spot and the ambiance is nice. Nice chairs and decor inside. Service was good, our waitress was nice and patient. Alright let's get to the food.... Aloo tikki appetizer- delicious, it's similar to a potato croquette but with Indian flavors and served with the chutney and sweet red sauce. Chicken tikka masala- now I've eaten at a lot of Indian restaurants and the one they served me didn't really look or taste like tikka masala. It look more like goat curry but with chicken.... It was good but not what I expected or wanted. Jeera rice- good flavor and basic rice Garlic naan- nice and crispy Drink- nice variety of drink options, from cocktails to mocktails Spice levels- the waitress warned me that hot level is not what I can take.... So we ordered medium.... And didn't taste spicy at all..... so had to ask for a side of spicy chili sauce. Hoping someone posts their order of chicken tikka masala so I can compare, because I wanna know if I got jipped.... read more

This is our first time here. We like the welcoming environment overall. The owner is very neat and paying good attention to details and very organized. It took tooooooo long for the good to arrive. It looks great, but the taste is very poor! We asked for mild tandoori chicken, it's very mild, no salt almost or any flavor to be more accurate. Samosa is Excellent, bread is sooo yummy. But needs more flavor in chicken. Anyway, hopefully this will help them to work harder in enhanse the flavors. The owner stopped by to ask about our experience, we share with him our opinion...very humble and great people. He offered us a free tea..very sweet of him. Thanks anyway and keep it up. Will come back again and try another dishes read more

Came with my boyfriend's family to celebrate a birthday. (Note: They do not give out any goodies for birthdays.) Interior & Decor: Nicer than expected, clean and simple. Food: Veg Momos: 3.5/5 - Good, but nothing special. - Served on a bed of steamed cabbage. - Sauce was good. Chicken Momos: 3.5/5 - Boyfriend's favorite. - Normal taste, but the sauce was a highlight. Veg Manchurians: 2.5/5 - Usually a favorite dish, but fell short here. - Oily, lacked soy flavor in the sauce. - Good texture, but overall lacked flavor. Chicken Biryani: 4/5 - Flavorful with noticeable spices and mint. - Recommended. Extras: - Enjoyed the sweet sauce and green chutney. Service: - Friendly waiter, not Indian, but very helpful. Personal Note: - Had to order chili sauce on the side because boyfriend's family wanted everything mild, which impacted the flavor experience. read more

So to start off. We looove Indian food in my family. This place was new so we decided to try it out and also experiment with a couple new cuisine choices. Please keep that in mind. EXPERIMENT. I'll start off by saying the establishment is clean (bathrooms included) ,nicely decorated while still having a minimalistic/modern vibe. The chairs are super comfy. The staff were very mindful and courteous and were good about not keeping us waiting too long for drinks or food. They didn't have uniforms on like I'm used to seeing. I think that would add a nice touch to the experience. Now the food and drinks. They have a very nice bar with a vast selection of drinks on their menu so you are covered there. I ordered a kingfisher beer but they were out. A Taj Mahal was my second choice and it never lets me down. Foods I'll start with the cons first. We ordered fries and chicken pakora for my child. The masala season on the fries weren't her favorite and she was too picky to eat the pakora. I liked the chicken. But the masala seasoning on the fries made them taste a little like boiled eggs. Wasn't my favorite either. But we are experimenting here. The veggie momos my gf ordered were good. But the chicken ones could've been steamed a little bit longer. Lastly the fresh lime soda. Most Americans won't be used to this unless you are a huge fan of drinks made in Indian culture. It has a lot of fennel seed mixed with mint, lime and sparkling water. It is an acquired taste for sure. Gotta remember though we are trying new things. The pros. We ordered our favorites to compare other spots around town. Butter chicken, chicken tikka masala , garlic naan and samosas. Fabulous!!!! The butter chicken is usually my fav but the masala won me over this time. But I loved how savory both dishes were. The samosas were HUGE AND TASTY. My mom ordered the chicken soup and that was one of the tastiest soups I've ever had. All that said. I give Junoon a solid 7/10 when you weigh in the entire experience including the price for 5 people. I'll definitely eat there again. read more

We choose Junoon for my son's birthday dinner, and thoroughly enjoyed our experience. He started with a virgin piña colada, which was great (I had a sip!) and he loved the butter chicken and jasmine rice and garlic naan. Then at the end, they brought him a platter with 3 exquisite little desserts that were soaked in sweet syrup. See photo! Lovely experience. read more
