Every so often on the way to or from the farmers market, we stopped in here. It's a cozy space inside and in warm weather you can sit outside as well. You order at the counter and then they will bring your food to you at the table We ordered the omelette with Parrotta and a chai and a couple cookies. All to share as 1 into 2. The eggs were piping, hot and spicy as was the chai, and the bread was also piping hot and flaky We also ordered a couple cookies for dessert. Yum! read more

I've been a big fan of Kettle's for a long time now--it's one of my favorite spots to hang out and enjoy good food. The vibe is always nice, and the service is warm.Their chowmein & fried rice dishes are consistently tasty, and the Paneer Kathi Roll is an all-time hit--soft, flavorful, and filling every single time! Highly recommend this place if you're looking for food with great flavors. Will keep coming back! read more

Terrible service. Took 50 minutes to bring my order out and then found out it was the wrong order. No communication that my order is delayed. Avoid! Avoid! Avoid! read more

My friend brought me here and it's a cute authentic North Indian cafe with breakfast, snacks, baked goods, coffee and tea. They post the food menu outside so u need to look at it before entering which is a little inconvenient when it's cold outside. The drink menu is inside. U need to press the bell button at the front to get service as the owner is usually in the back cooking/baking. We ordered the Shami Kabab and Paratha, Aloo ki tikki chat, and Aloo paratha. The Shami kabab is meat with a flat bread plain. Comes with onions and a white dipping sauce. The Aloo paratha is the potato paratha i really enjoyed. My favorite was the Aloo ki tikki chat. It is cauliflower veggie patti covered in a sauce with chick peas.. a little sweet and savory and spicy all at the same time. Everything went well together. Had a small cookie at the end which was also nice. Liked the hole in the wall feel with the owner serving us as u can tell creating this food is his passion. Will def be back! read more

This place has deteriorated pretty badly! Menu options are gone, service left the door a long time ago, and the ambience that used to be an attraction is now falling apart. Not worth a trip! read more

This place must be legit af or something because to accept the crap level of service here must mean the food is delishhhhhhh. My husband likes the food so we come here from time to time but I die every single time. My visit this past week was insane lol. I ordered at 10:28am. Two dishes and two drinks. That's it, you guys. At 11am, they told me another 10-15 minutes. (Which is the estimate they seem to give everyone no matter your order size btw). We didn't freaking end up getting our food until 11:37!! Wth?? AND they cancelled my drinks. So I waited over an hour for two measly dishes! Oh and never once a teeny tiny apology?? I was absolutely FUMING. I hate this place lol. I have banned it from our rotating list of restaurants we visit. BYE. read more

I hate being cheated. Last time we came here and ordered two different teas, We got 2 small kettles each with more than a cup of tea. Today we ordered two chai's and we get one kettle with barely a cup and a half of tea for 2 orders. Seriously??? How cheap can this restaurant get where a manager randomly decided the quantity in an order. read more

Really tasty food! The chole bhature was especially good! Highly recommend. Enjoyed the tawa chicken too. read more

So I wanted to get this out upfront that I went for this place for halwa puree and try it out. I am coming from a background of Pakistani halwa puree eating at the street food spots in Karachi often. This place had a more Indian taste version of the food This place was empty when we got there, first people there. There was only outdoor seating as well, but although it was windy, the setup tent was nice so it was not cold. The food came in good timing about 15-18min as the guy at counter said 15min, so that was spot on. The food came in a tray, and I asked in mine for specifically no aloo so they gave more choley which was nice of them. The choley tasted more like a karahi type of flavor and less of a choley type, and the aloo (tasted from my guests tray, had more of a gobee taste not aloo. The puree was thicker and had a different look, texture, and flavor than the puree I am used to at Pakistani places or back in Karachi. The halwa was also missing the look in color and the sweetness as well. So it was a little disappointing but maybe that's how it is where the owners from here are from. But def not the taste was expecting The masala chai was decent as well. I'd recommend this place to those who know what type of food offered here and like it but for people who want a Pakistani style halwa puree I would tell em maybe go to tandoori and curry in Fremont etc. read more

I visited Kettle again for breakfast, and it seems like either the chef or staff has changed. Their Pakistani-style halwa puri is no longer the same as before--instead, they now serve chole bhature, which leans more toward Indian-style flavors. Unfortunately, the overall quality of food has declined compared to when they first opened. Since this was a pickup order, I can't comment much on the dine-in experience or ambiance, but they need to improve their cooking to bring back the quality they once had. I gave them 5 stars in the past, now it is 2/5. read more

Great food On the weekend you must try their Weekend Special Halwa Puri Chole and aloo sabzi! Their aloo paratha is also really good. I highly recommend their Delhi style cold coffee - reminded me of ccd in India Their variety of chai is also pretty good! Currently (post covid) they only have outdoor dinning available. read more

I would do a 3.5 stars if that's possible,.. we got the irani chai, cold coffee, veg puff and aloo paratha The chai and cold coffee though were expensive were quite good.. but I mean why does it have to be so expensive compared to other places ?! The veg puff was good but it was quite greasy The paratha was very homestyle, non greasy and comforting Nothing to right about the ambience, I think the menu has more to offer.. would come back often if not for the pricing read more

Conveniently located on el camino real road, right next to chickfila and indian grocery stores, Ample parking and lots of outdoor seating!! Be prepared to wait for your order to come out coz everything is fried fresh :) In $50, we got: - chole bhature 5/5 comes with side of pickle and aloo sabzi and chopped onions - poori halwa chole aloo 4.5/5 - keema and parantha - good portion size for 1- 4/5 - delhi style espresso 6/5 so so loved it and reminded me of the indian wedding coffee with the big machine and sprinkled with hot chocolate super yummy - 1 irani chai 4/5 - 1 masala chai 5/5 U enter n order inside n wait outside standing or seated for your order to come. It took ours 35 mins coz of the brunch timing n a lot of people but well worth the wait. They give all food to-go style in disposable boxes with plastic cutlery to keep it safe. #supportlocal #definitelyrecommended read more

Very bad chai! For my life, I have never had so bad taste of tea anywhere in the world, it was like finding the 9th wonder but worst.

Food was delicious. I like there chaat items. Ambiance is quiet simple. Service is slow but understandable , I guess they have plenty of orders all the time. read more

We have been regular customers and always order the same 4 things..Chicken fried rice, veg noodles, chilli paneer and chilli chicken. We loved this place so much that we recommended it to so many of our friends to go and try but our last order disappointed us unbelievably. We had a few friends visiting from India and wanted to try good indo chinese. Since this place has always been our favorite, we placed our regular order and everything was awful. Too much soya sauce in noodles, fried rice had too much salt and were very dry. Chicken was again too salty and chewy and paneer was exactly like rubber. We had to trash the entire order and got pizza instead. Highly disappointed and sad that our fav place is no longer on our list of favorites :( read more

Oh wow, what a great find! The cutting chai, chole bature and aloo paratha were exceptionally good. And the cutting chai was so satisfying. Highly recommend! read more

If there were minus five stars (-5) stars, I would give them... I went to get some Halwa and ordered tea...remember this is a to-go order. 30 min later, I am still waiting for Halwa and tea. Their service is one of the slowest I have seen in the Bay Area. I could tolerate if the chef was preparing fresh Halwa or tea. Sadly that was not the case. Now let's talk about food.. once I opened the bag, this is the Halwa surprise I got (picture)... this looks like a serving for toddlers... chai was average and for $4.99 .. Not a happy experience and not going back either! I feel like I wasted my afternoon today read more

Cute little place famous for North Indian/Delhi snacks. Fully halal. Great service. Very popular among the desi community in the Bay Area - especially for those seeking a nostalgia trip. Got the Delhi Espresso - a delicious warm foamy coffee sprinkled with chocolate. Perfect for a cold winter afternoon. I noticed they have a lot of interesting items on their menu including weekend specials of Kheema Parantha etc which looked interesting. Also a lot of family diners. Definitely looking forward to coming back and checking these out. Update - the cucumber mint cooler and chicken tikka roll are both delicious! read more

I went to this place this afternoon and was disappointed for 3 reasons 1. Service time : It took 40 min for my food to arrive which was a small Order of 2 parathas . I had to follow up 2 times to serve my food 2. Cleanliness : I was asked to sit in the outside patio. The sever quickly provided me with the chairs to sit and placed us near the table which was yet to be cleaned . There was no attention paid by the server to clean the table and despite of reminding them to clean the table, it took the staff to clean the table post 20 min of my request. The smell was floating around making it unhygienic to sit there 3. Lastly , Novice chef : when the parathas arrived, it was disappointing to see the shape of the parathas and it was elliptical and irregular shapes which was unexpected when you go to a place where you wanted to rejuvenate your memories of Delhi like food I do want to add a positive note about the staff being apologetic and also food was fine to eat but I do want the owner to take my feedback seriously and improvise read more

Tried their cold coffee and veg burger. Both were super delicious. Taste of cold coffee was exact like india's typical cold coffee. Veg burger gave a feeling as though i am eating Mc'Donald's Mc Veggie. The taste was amazing and the sesame crusted bun were perfect. It was accompanied by zig zag fries and they were the best fries i have had in bay area. read more

I've been in town from Hawaii for a few weeks and I've been here twice. I stumbled upon this place purely because I needed a snack to hold me over for dinner. My mom and I drove from Fairfield for a meeting and to follow have lunch with family. We thought it was just a simple bakery but it wasn't. We were pleasantly surprised with such flavors. The waiter suggested Samosa Chat and cauliflower paratha the first time we were there and it was so delicious! So simple and so flavorful. We had the mango lassi to help our quench our thirst. That was so flavorful. The next time we went back, a week later, we tried Murgh Malai, Kathi Kabab, and the Vegetable Cutlet. Literally everything we had since stumbling upon Kettle'e has been fabulously delicious. I live in Hawaii and we don't get to enjoy all these flavors as ready and easily. Anytime I'm in the South Bay I will make a stop. Thanks for a great experience. read more

I went to kettle's with high hopes. The menu had me craving some great food. I got the murg malai roll and cold coffee. The cold coffee was good, not too sweet. Although half the glass was just foam. The murg Kati roll, the meat was very well cooked, tender and juicy and the paratha was delicious. It was however over stuffed with raw onions. Would love to try other items on the menu though, but todays experience was a little disappointing read more

Kettle'e - Egg Bhujia & Paratha - Indian Near Me - Santa Clara, California

See all

I had my doubts when my husband suggested Indian food for brunch but it was awesome! The Egg Bhujia was a flavorful scramble- and was a nice twist from the usual scrambles we get at brunch. It comes with a well baked Paratha. For those unfamiliar with parathas, it's a flatbread that is a thick, dense flatbread made from wheat. They offer stuffed flatbreads as well, and we had a paneer one as well as a gobi (cauliflower) one. There wasn't much stuffing, but they were both very good, though the paneer one was surprisingly spicy. I loved that they have a huge Chai and Coffee menu. I got a "medium" Masala Chai that came in a teapot. It was a much bigger quantity than I expected for the price, though also less spiced then I expected. My husbands Delhi Espresso was amazing. I think they use condensed milk since it reminded me of a Vietnamese coffee, though not as sweet. The seating is a bit limited right at lunch time, particularly since people kind of chill with their Chais for a while, but they do have patio seating in the front. Food and drinks were both very very slow. Not everyone speaks English well so it was hard to check on the status. They also have baked goods and cookies on sale. read more

We have been to this place over a dozen times at different times of the day and they have delicious fresh food ALL the time! This place always reminds me of Irani cafes in India. The place has a relaxed setting with just a few tables. We have never waited a long time to get a spot. The last time we went there we ordered their weekend special Halwa Puri Chole, Sliced Bread Omelette, some cookies from the display they have and Masala Chai. The food took a while to come but was freshly prepared and that is what mattered. The portions are perfect and the price is justified. They have an assortment of cookies and breads at the counter and we tried the pistachio and almond cookies. Both were amazing with the Masala Chai we got in a kettle! While everything tasted great, the star of the meal was definitely the Sliced Bread Omelette. Thick slice of bread with Indian style Masala Omelette stuffed in it with cheese and toasted to perfection. I will definitely go back to have this again. They have chow-mien and parathas that I would love to try next time. A great place for breakfast, lunch or even evening snack. Totally recommended! read more

The name sounded so cute and inviting, but it was a disappointment. The Mumbai sandwich wasn't any where close to how a sandwich is in Mumbai. Delhi coffee wasn't like Delhi coffee. The paneer pakoras and samosa had good flavor but it was too oily and you could see that on the items itself. The chutney's were average. I really was expecting more close to home feeling but i was disheartened. Wouldn't recommend, if your looking for Mumbai/Delhi food. The only cute thing we liked was the lamp. read more

went there for lunch. this place is supposed to stay open from 9am-10pm. Me and my sister went around 2 pm. there were no customers at that time. we ordered kabab paratha and samosa chaat. after waiting for atleast 20 minute. i ask about my orde. the server said they make everyt fresh so it takes longer! another 10 minutes went by and our one paratha with one shami kabab arriced. When asked about the samosa chaat, he told us they were having some issues with the frying oil ? wgafs that supposed to mean?? Finally it came. it looked ok but had a strong achar taste !' We finished the food somehow as we were hungry but I'm definitely NOT going back!' This is the reason we stopped going yaman and curry's too as the food takes very long to come! it's sad, they don't seem to care either! the owner was sitting there and I believ, went in to cook after we placed the order. She heard us complain about the delay too but didn't bother to say anything! If they expect people to come for breakfast and lunch, nobody will wait this long to get their food on a weekday!! read more

I have done both takeout and sat there and eaten. They aren't serving in disposable dishes when we sit there. Everything is given in takeout form only. I wish they served it on a plate or something when people were eating in the location. The tables are also not wiped and kept clean. Having said that, the food is great. The bhature chole, puffs, parantha, Everything was really delicious. Will definitely keep ordering from there but will refrain from sitting there and eating(I thot food will be piping hot if I ate there but then it's not the case). read more

Yuck! Don't come here. I tried Paya Paratha here. They gave literally all bones - no meat. After I complained, they replaced with meat pieces. But the Paratha was half cooked. Overall really bad experience for a dinner that cost $20. read more

We chanced on this quaint bakery in Santa Clara on a perfect sunny evening at 5:00pm looking for a quick snack before spending an evening walk. It had a perfect fast food bakery feel. The Irani Chai was delectable and the vegetable puff is a must try. The buttery texture and crunch is really good!!!! A must visit if you are looking for a quick snack.... Mohammed was extremely courteous.... read more

We tried Bun Kebab, Halwa Puri and Shami Kabab Patatha, everything was really delicious. As I took the first bite of bun kebab the patty wrapped with egg melted in my mouth, never ate something like this for a long time. Usually I don't like lamb but his place is exceptional. Looks like a newly opened place, and it's more like a cafe then a restaurant. So if you are going with a big group, you may not find enough table to sit together. P:S This was post covid experience read more

We stopped here for brunch. Parking is ample and I guess is shared with taco bell. They haven't started Inside dining. Outside they have 3 small tables & chairs. The table & chairs were not cleaned. If you are dining outside they provide everything in disposable irrespective. The restrooms were dirty. We ordered their:- Egg bhurji with parantha- It was ok ok. Have had better at other places. Samosa chaat- Did not enjoy these, the samosa filling was not good. Chole bhature- This was the star dish, just yum. Masala chai- Good authentic Indian chai. Overall, Price & food quantity is good. Will be back to try other items on their menu. read more
