    Saffron and cardamom chai
    Rowen H.

    Found this chai place not too long ago and I absolutely loved it. My girlfriend taught me how to make chai but I have never made it with saffron or cardamom, so it was definitely a great try! This definitely an Indian Chai. The staff were incredibly nice and even adjusted the sweetness after our brief talk. Would definitely come back to do some work and have a little tea time.

    5/2/25 Hot & New! Getting lunch! Arrived & greeted by a nice worker. Asked about recommendations for lunch. Maggi Cheese Veggie Masala was recommended and I ordered that and they have sweets. Nutella bun recommended too. Getting that to share for dinner. Nice restaurant. Clean and safe. Plenty of seating with Indian music playing. They do not serve meat. FYI. Vegetarian. She also offered if I wanted it spicy. Of course! Paid for the order and sat in a fancy white chair for it to be called. It definitely took a little while to get. Hope it's good! Order called after a bit more. Bagged and slid over with a thank you! Lunchtime! Veggie Cheese Maggi is a good size. Half was plenty. It was pretty good. Mainly Ramen noodles, corn, peppers and cheese on top. It did have a nice spice to it. Definitely felt like it was missing something. I'll add dinner later! It looks Really tasty! Good service & okay lunch. Hopefully dinner will be better! ;)

    Cute little waiting area in the front for to go orders.

    My wife had the Veggie burger and it was amazing! (I tried a little bite.) We also got a couple of chai tea to try some variety, and I was surprised because she preferred the Cardamom, and I preferred the Rose. The seats were comfortable and there were round tables for two and square tables for four. Will definitely be going back.

    The maggi with cheese

    Fun menu that you will not find anywhere else! They had some tasty snacks. I imagine them to be something you would love to eat as a kid, dream snacks. The Maggie noodle items are so fun. I really like the pizza in a cup, which is more like yummy veggies with some spices and sour jalapenos which cheese in Paneer. I can see why a lot of people may not get the flavors because they are pretty desi, but that's why we loved it! I got the rose tea with oat milk and it was really good. I never had tea in a clay pot before, and I enjoyed it. My sister got the Khala Khatta. I also got the papdi chaat with was mid it could do with a sweeter imlee chutney but that's according to my taste. The decor is really cute. Overall a fun outing! I would come again. Service was great. Easy parking.

    Menu

    Pros: Neat and clean dinning area. Okay service. Cons: Long wait times for drinks. Teas were eh. After drinking the tea, it cause my stomach to be a little upset. Pricey for tea portion size.

    The location is great and beautifully decorated! I loved the flavors of the food and drinks. The staff is very helpful and willing to help with your choices!

    This is my 2nd time visiting Gulab and it definitely lived up to my first experience. I don't eat…read moreIndian food very often, but I thoroughly enjoyed everything we ordered for lunch. We had the butter chicken, shrimp biryani, and fish, curry, and all three dishes were absolutely delicious. The flavors were rich, well balanced, and each dish stood out in its own way. The ambience is elegant and welcoming, making it a great spot for both casual lunch and a nicer dining experience. The service was excellent and attentive without being intrusive. One unique feature that I loved, was the service cube at the table. You simply touch it to change the color depending on whether you need assistance or ready to pay the bill. It's a clever touch that makes dining even more convenient. Great food, great service and a beautiful atmosphere. I will definitely be coming back again.

However, the water tasted moldy/mildewy like their water filter hasn't been changed in over a year. Which if they're not changing their water filter every 3 months i'm concerned what else might be happening in the kitchen. The food was good, ordered butter chicken and chicken tikka masala. The sauce seemed thinner than most other indian places, but tasted good enough, but didn't redeem them from the moldy water. There are better tasting/priced indian restaurants in clovis/fresno though. service was fine.

We usually get their lamb tikka and their butter chicken along some vegetable dish to round it out. Even if you eat all the protein the thick sauce should be saved. The dishes are flavorful and their spice levels are perfect. Mild is mild and spicy has the right amount of kick. Naan is pillowy, stretchy, and the char gives it a depth of flavor. Everyone we have introduced it to has said they cant get enough of it. There is something for everyone: fish, meat, veggies. I can't recommend this place enough. If you are reading this and are craving Indian food, this is the place!

While the chefs in the back…read morealmost seem to be bothered by you when you order, their food is absolutely incredible, and it's worth getting the odd looks! This place is pretty much a hole in the wall, but it has enough space for about maybe forty people to dine comfortably. What they lack in space, they make up for in flavors. Everything that I've ever eaten here has been outstanding and wonderful! I personally think they have some of the best butter chicken in town. Their vegetable briyani is one of my go-to's and something that I constantly order. The naan is always fresh and flavorful and leaves me wishing that I ordered more. This is one of those rare places in Fresno that I have to say, if you haven't been, you absolutely need to go!

The folks who run this place seem to really care about the quality of the food and the experience the guests have. Unlike our first visit on Valentine's Day which was very busy, we came back on a weekend evening this fall, and there were only a couple other diners. It seems like "the new normal" is that most business for these mom-and-pop type restaurants appears to be by Doordash, Grubhub, UberEats -- even if they're making plenty of sales, very few people come in and sit down. It's odd. You can no longer judge how good a restaurant will be by how many people are seating having dinner on a Saturday night. But despite not very many people dining in, it's a comfortable, welcoming, clean space. Everything was still fresh, delicious, and very similar to last time, EXCEPT: The main update I wanted to give is that the little "glitches" I noticed when the place was brand new are all gone now. This is just as I expected, but I wanted to let Yelpers know this. So yes, this time the got everything we ordered, we got sauces with the appetizer, and we were given full-size dinner plates. Love those black lentils. Everyone: go eat them!
