    I came here for a friend's birthday. The lunch buffet was well-stocked and flavorful, but some of the food was rather dry and stale. The restaurant's appearance was cozy and modern though!

    They do offer lunch buffet. Monday through Thursday, $17.99 per person Friday through Sunday, $19.99 per person Holidays, $21.99 Read multiple times how much Indians utilize and LOVE the catering services of this restaurant for weddings, birthdays, etc plus was highly recommended by Indians so much so I had to try this establishment. FOOD // MOST disgusting Indian buffet I have ever had in my life. Everything was extremely salty so much so everything tasted the same no matter what you took a scoop of. NO DOSA INCLUDED WITH THE BUFFET (I asked one of the servers.). Lots of selections, however. Limited desserts. No fruit. Naan does taste homemade. Not extremely oily. Extremely dry and not very chewy--disappointing. Goat dry. Per others, poultry was reasonable and not dry to a bone. AMBIENCE // Pretty much large tables for workers in the area that come eat. SERVICE // - not attentive - does not care AT ALL - nonexistent: you may wait at the door for a long time while servers are standing there since you have to wait to be seated - brings out plain naan; no other options allowed - pours water - slow to remove used plates LOCATION // Directly across from Olive Garden. Lucky supermarket plaza. Kind of a ghost town of a plaza in my book. Lots of free somewhat reasonably spaced parking. OVERALL // First Indian buffet in my life that everyone in my party had a funny feeling in the stomach status post consuming at this establishment. Everything tasted exactly the same. I appreciate the variety in the fried foods. I appreciate the rice was well cooked. INTERESTING NOTE: if you order any food via DoorDash or whatever, servers do take the food from here... they will not cook anything fresh. Will I be coming back? Never ever again in my life. Am I glad I tried it? No. Regretful to a tee.

    We used catering services from Sakoon for my husband's birthday. The food came on time. It was delicious. The server was polite and set up the dinner when we wanted. He didn't make a mess. We were satisfied with the service. It was decently priced. We did price comparison. Sakoon's price turned out to be pretty decent. Everything was very delicious.

    Came for their lunch buffet on a Sunday. Lots of variety for both meat lovers and vegetarians. There was typical tandoori chicken, goat, butter chicken and several vegetarian option. Food was hot and constantly refilled. Hot fresh butter naan brought to the table. Hot self serve chai and this day thru also had rose lassi! Service was attentive and plates cleared quickly. Ambience was nice with plenty of seating but filled up quick for the lunch buffet. I thought it was a great options for Indian buffet at $20/person.

    Celebrating a friend's birthday we decided to grab dinner at Sakoon (wasnt the first time , though it was after a long time that we had made it to Sakoon) in Fremont. Alex greeted us with a cheerful smile and got us to our table. We ordered a variety of dishes, including Dal Tarka, Paneer Butter Masala, Chana Pindi, along with Garlic Naan and Tandoori Roti. The Dal Tarka was comforting and well-seasoned, with just the right balance of spices, making it a perfect start to our meal. The Paneer Butter Masala was rich and creamy, with soft paneer cubes that melted in our mouths. The Chana Pindi had a wonderful, earthy flavor, with perfectly cooked chickpeas in a spiced sauce that paired beautifully with the naan and roti. The Garlic Naan was fresh, warm, and fragrant with garlic, while the Tandoori Roti had that classic smoky flavor we all love. As the night went on, we ended up staying later than planned, but Alex, the manager, went above and beyond to make our experience special. His attention to detail and genuine hospitality made us feel welcome and well taken care of, ensuring everything went smoothly throughout the evening.The hosts and the servers were amazing through and through and got our orders in no time. Overall, Sakoon exceeded our expectations with both the quality of food and exceptional service. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a memorable Indian dining experience in Fremont!

    We had an great time celebrating our kid's Birthday at Sakoon Fremont! Great ambiance and food. Most of all, Diya @Sakoon was indispensable in orchestrating the event. She was invested in our event, gave great suggestions and was very accommodating for menu choices. She overall helped get us a great experience from Sakoon.

    Yesterday, we were there for a girls event award night. It was super clean place very well maintained even after a decade. The food actually tasted superb little bit spice to it. The restrooms are clean and well maintained. It was a Glam night super cozy place! The service of this place is as always great. The workeds are very content and humble.

    Excellent! My friend and I were looking for an Indian Buffet style restaurant and were pleasantly suprised by the wide variety of food options, desert and chai. The tandori chicken, naan and curries were amazing. We will definately be coming back!

    Yes, but not on weekdays

    Do you have a branch in San Jose?

    I don't think so. They have it in Mountain view, Santa Clara and Fremont. Here is their website: http://www.sakoonrestaurant.com

I was there a couple weeks ago on a Saturday and even though the place was packed, the bartender could obviously not handle the amount of drinks that were coming in. She closed the place down early and we were forced to somewhere else. which was sad cause I wanted to enjoy my night out. The week before that the same bartender was there and getting a lot of negative attention because of her attire. It made it uncomfortable for me and a lot of other people to watch. Last night, I walked in and right back out for the same reason. This is the first time that I've really frequented my neighborhood bar, and I was really getting used to the spot always having a fun vibe. Lately the consistency has definitely been off.

Totally unique in location, ambiance and patronage (people from all walks of life come here - from bikers, blue collar workers, tech bros and long-time locals). You can see and feel the history the moment you walk in. It's part dive, part community hub, and part time capsule in the best way. Because the Flo holds a special place in my heart, I wanted to share a few supportive thoughts. I think the Flo has so much potential, and a few small tweaks could make a big difference. I know it would for me and other regulars who find ourselves stopping in less and less. Bartenders: Read the Room Afternoons often draw an older crowd that loves to chat and socialize. Keeping the music at a comfortable volume during those hours helps people enjoy the vibe without shouting over the jukebox. A little attention to the atmosphere goes a long way. Along those lines, consistent heat in the winter and AC in the summer would make the space more comfortable. It's amazing how much it influences whether people stay for one drink or settle in for the afternoon. Management: The Flo has a very loyal customer base. The folks who come here already know it, love it, and want to support it. Leaning into that core audience and maybe doing something simple like a basic SWOT analysis could spark some great ideas for keeping business strong. Keeping the door propped open might seem inviting, but the foot traffic in this area isn't really the bar's crowd. The magic of the Flo comes from the people who intentionally choose to be here. All of this comes from a place of appreciation. There are many of us who don't just want the Flo to stick around, we want it to thrive. With a few thoughtful updates, it can continue to be a beloved Fremont spot for years to come.

Great set-up in the front. Large bar and tables with chairs. Pool table in the back. It's a bar. It's a bar you look forward to coming to because it's laid back. Had we not had dinner, the tacos looked good! Great pour on my Jameson! The bartender was very friendly! I'm not sure if it was Gracie or Jen the mermaid...LOL! They were going to do karaoke which was our cue to leave. Definitely worth checking out, even if you're not in the area. I will be back!
