    A Co worker recommended Shosha to me so wanted to give it a try! The food was delicious and service was great. Standouts for me was the saag and some yogurt patty appetizer (forget what it's called). Overall a great experience and will be returning!

    False advertising
    Lindsay O.

    False advertising and poor service. We went for lunch because we saw a sign that said $15 for lunch Tuesday through Sunday. It was Thursday. The menu they gave us did not have those items. I asked why not. They said the poster is misprinted and it's only Saturday and Sunday. Then we sat and waited for more than 5 minutes and the waiter never came back, so we left.

    First time in Sunnyville, and overall the restaurant had great vibes and friendly service! The waiter was really nice, and I enjoyed the atmosphere. As for the food, I wasn't completely impressed. The paneer tikka had a good marinade but was a bit rubbery, and the Dilli Papdi Chaat didn't feel as authentic. The portions were generous, though, and the drink was really yummy and unique with the amla flavor. I probably wouldn't go back for the food, but the vibes and service were enjoyable!

    food was very heavy, we got the malai kofta, and dal buhkara, all we could taste was heavy cream. they also don't have the menu items that are popular and portions were incredibly small 18 dollars for 3 bites of kebab is highway robbery and just not worth it

    I find most upscale Indian restaurants overhyped-- surprisingly I like Shosha! Good yummy food for fair value compared to what you get in Bay Area, I wud go back again, nice cute ambiance and good service.

    We visited on a weekday with a group of 11 adults and four children to celebrate a birthday. Our party was seated in the upstairs area, which I believe serves as the venue's party hall. Unfortunately, the ambiance left much to be desired-there was little atmosphere, the speakers were uncomfortably loud, and the temperature was quite warm, especially given the hot weather outside. The drinks were underwhelming, and the appetizers were just average. The only standout dish was the chili chicken, which had some genuinely good flavor. On a positive note, the service was excellent. Allwyn took great care of our group and was always attentive and responsive. His service was, in fact, the highlight of our evening. The total bill came to about $40 per person. For that price, the experience felt far from upscale, and there are definitely better dining options available in the Bay Area at a similar cost.

    Shosha is our go-to place birthday celebrations! Awesome food, great hospitality and birthday music and sparklers make us to visit Shosha for every time! Their Chat pata platter is very refreshing. Spinach Paneer and Biryani is also very tasty I recommend this place to everyone!

    I had the awesome experience of trying out Shosha's new Lazy Brunch Buffet - which folks can try out from April 20th! Now I have to say this experience was awesome. Shoshas ambiance feels classy and upscale with amazing service to make the experience even better! What is the cherry on the top is how amazing the food was. These are some of the items I got to try: *Nafraton ka Sharbat - this was a malai flavored drink, super creamy and absolutely fresh! *Aloo tikki - one of my favorites, this is crispy and soft potatoes with delicious sauce. Talk about a burst of flavor! *rice cake pepper chicken - this was a crispy rice dish with soft chicken on top. I really liked this with the different flavors and textures - one of my favorites *chicken shawarma bao - the chicken was well seasoned, and if you like baos this you'll enjoy *vada pav Kataafi - this was one of my favorites - if you like potato and lots of crunch, this one's for you! *makai malai dimsum - for rice lovers, this is a unique dish with rice on the outside with a veggie cheesy stuffing on the inside *butter chicken pinwheel - crispy, flakey deliciousness with everyone's fave butter chicken. Don't miss this one! *palak paneer baklava - think the pinwheel but paneer version, this was also quite flavorful I also got to try a variety of dishes that came with assortment of breads like chole bhature (delicious garbanzo beans curry) and a potato curry as well as a lentil curry as well! They were all flavorful and went well with the variety of breads they had which were warm and ready to munch on! There was also a live omelet station which was awesome for the egg lovers. We also got to try idly vada with sambar and chutneys which was amazing. To end the meal we had the following desserts: *mango & banana liquor firni - delicious, creamy and refreshing *shahi gulab malai roll - my favorite since I love rose flavored anything! Definitely try this We also got to try a few of the cocktails - the fig sour, Calcutta paan old fashioned & punch Puran. The punch Puran was my favorite! It had the perfect tang and was delicious! Would highly recommend one to check out Shosha!!

    Lazy breakfast menu
    Shristy A.

    My partner and I went for this "lazy breakfast" buffet tasting event and the experience was incredible! I cannot stop raving about it! One of the best in the bay! You can experience this too - they launch this on this Saturday April 21, don't miss it. The buffet goes like this- Nafrat ka sharbat: Flavorful refreshing cold badam milk with subtle thandai flavors (not too overpowering), absolute amazing start to the course. Comes with a spoon so you don't miss out those amazing nuts and other things to eat. : ) Sweet drink to start the brunch with all the positive vibes! Aloo chat: Indian umami. Sweet, salty sour spicy all at same time. My definition of chatpat. Patty is cooked perfectly. Right proportions of chutneys, yogurt and thinly sliced red onions on top. Omg! It absolutely blew us away! Don't miss this. Deconstructed vada pav: This one stole the show with its presentation, so unique. Tasty Potato filling of traditional vada pav covered in flaky sev with a thick pav crust indulged in tonnes of butter. Eat the crust by itself to get a deeper flavor of the pav! Malai dimsums: Spicy garlic-based chutney served with flavorful rice and dim sum flour. Again, the texture and ingredients so interesting, we enjoyed it! Cocktail drink with your picture: Even better tasting than it looks. Instagram worthy! satisfaction guaranteed. They give two choices for the base - rum or a whiskey, if I remember correctly. Baklava Palak Paneer: Indian fine dining, next level. Mind = blown. One cannot imagine that palak paneer in the baklava pastry could complement each other so wonderfully. A must try. Calcutta Pan-Old Fashioned: Instagram favorite? And partner's favorite too! I have a video of the making of this, cannot wait to share it. The bar tender entertains you while smoking the bottle. Drink is an amalgamation of centuries old Indian tradition of sweet betel leaf (paan) with old fashioned cocktail and the result is spectacular! The drink is not mild, but not too strong IMO. Daal Pakwaan: Sindhi delight. The daal was the right consistency and the pakwaans were crispy. This dish is one of those simple dishes yet yummy dishes, not too much masala, perfect for kids too. Yes, they have some fancy items and some simple 'ghar ka khana' type dishes! So thoughtful. Bedmi puri with aloo sabzi and raita: Famous from Bihar, served all over, and a staple on railway stations. The puri has nice texture, probably a think layer of filling too, not heavy at all, we enjoyed the puri by itself and it tasted amazing with the flavorful aloo sabzi. Loved it! Chole bhature: Best. Just absolutely the best, the bhatura wasn't greasy at all and yet so perfect, how! Chole was to die for; oh man, you cannot miss this one! Idli vada sambhar: Medu vada is crispy and flavorful with perfect mix of spices. Vada immersed in sambhar was satisfying. Chutneys are unique, a bit different than traditional South Indian food but equally good. It's really hard to go wrong with this dish. Panch puran: Ayurvedic masalas with tulsi and lemon. My favorite! Healthy alcoholic drink (haha) made with Hennessy Cognac. This is that drink which you'll sip and definitely say "oh! This is yummy!", if you're like me, haha! Pav bhaji: Loaded with butter and tons of flavor. Took my partner back to his college days in Mumbai. It's hard to find good authentic consistent pav bhaji places in Bay Area, but this one comes very close, he said! I loved it, probably the best I've had in Bay Area. Shahi gulab malai roll: Must try. Light and right sweetness. Subtle rose flavors and nicely blends with coconut flakes. I am telling you- we went crazy, they just kept surprising us! Mango & Banana liquor firni: The firni is perfect leaving your palette with hints of kalakand(milk cake). The caramelized banana and mango slices are a nice touch if the firni by itself is too sweet for you. If you read this far, haha! I must tell you again, don't miss out this unique experience. The staff is super nice, they explained the dishes with such detail and took care of us. Must try fine dining restaurant in the Bay! The owner is extremely passionate about providing a unique unforgettable to their visitors. And this really resonates with what I'm looking for in fancy restaurants! The ambience was beautiful and the memories will be etched in until we visit, next time. Also, loads of parking available in the parking lot behind the restaurant.

    Came here on a rainy Friday night to try their food. The drinks were very good! I appreciated the Indian twist that they put on classic cocktails both the paan infused smoky old fashioned and the papaya mule were both excellent. For the apps we went with the Dilli papdi chaat and the Tangela style chili paneer. The chaat was pretty tasty and came with pomegranate on top which was a nice touch and the paneer came out hot and crispy on the outside and soft on the inside with a classic tomato based gravy that was a little ketchup-y almost but tasty nonetheless. Finally for the mains we ordered the spinach corn/paneer, kadhai chicken, jackfruit biryani, and naan/roti. Pretty full spread overall. The creamed spinach was a little interesting and honestly didn't really resemble any Indian food I've eaten and the staff was nice enough to add paneer in as we realized after it was corn OR paneer not both. The kadhai chicken again was pretty standard, nothing super impressive but filling and the garlic naan could've been a little more garlicky. The jackfruit biryani was a little disappointing to be honest. The jackfruit itself was fine but the rice portion of the biryani didn't feel like a biryani almost colored rice and I felt it was not very flavorful and lacking in spices. Definitely on the more expensive side as they are going for a more upscale Indian but I feel like the fusion attempts on the menu makes the food seem to lose a little bit of authenticity. Overall a 3.5/5

    Looking for an upscale Indian restaurant in Sunnyvale with delicious food and amazing drinks? Shosha is the place! Their cocktails are incredible. The Calcutta Paan Old Fashioned truly has an aftertaste just like paan, and the Papaya Mule is a fantastic twist on a classic Moscow Mule. While the menu changes monthly, the chicken curries are always a winner. Pro tip: If you're celebrating a birthday, bring your own dessert (or order theirs - the Rasmisu is delicious) and let them know. They'll make it extra special with party lights, music, and a sparkler! This really added a fun touch to our celebration.

    We were here on a Friday night to celebrate a girls night out. We walked in and greeted very professionally by our waiter. The waiter was very humble give us ideas on what to order and definitely listen to us and taking pictures. The items we order I have photographed them. They were all definitely a hit. The best part was the customer service and even the chef came out to greet us. We will definitely be back for more girls night in.

    *Vegetarian Foodie Review*…read more This place is right next to the Beer Garden, but it's more of a restaurant-style, dine-in format.

Must try! 2) Pita + Dips (from snacks): 4/5 - The 1st pita wasn't fully baked, but they fixed it by replacing it. 3) Chickpea Fritters: 4/5 - I am not a big fan of goat yogurt, but if you do like it, this would be a 5/5. The taste and feel felt like India style which was a hit! 4) Grilled corn: 2/5 - No one in my group liked this. It was too sweet because of the caramel, not a good combination. We sat outside on the patio, but the inside ins awesome too. It's a fancy place, good for celebrations and special occasions. But yeah, the food wasn't fulling, we left a little hungry. Service was a little too slow, but that's okay given it was Father's Day weekend.

Tried two of the cocktails at Alter Ego. Overall, both have different vibes. Alter Ego is good for a more intimate dark setting date vibe. Service was pretty good at Still OG!

All cocktails are on tap, which actually ended up being great because I was between a few of them and the bartender was able to give me samples of them. We also ended up getting an order of the Chicken skewers, which were super tender and juicy. We were too late on our visit, but they do have a daily happy hour that includes some of the skewers and fries, as well as some drinks and shots. Service was super friendly and vibes and music were great! Cocktails, weren't the best since they were on tap, but still good enough! I would absolutely come back here for a drink and snack though!

Can also order from the full menu of Adrestia, official restaurant of hotel. Service is friendly and efficient. Prices for drinks range from $14-20- going rate nowadays. Cheers to 2026! Let's go and make it epic and elite, friends!

    Nice and spacious with lots of different types of seating: tables and chairs, couches and coffee…read moretables, stools at the bar, high chairs at a shared long counter-like table. It had an upscale vibe, but it was in the lobby of a hotel! The menu was interesting -- Japanese whiskey cocktails mainly -- and some food items. If you ask, you can get a little dish of nuts as a complimentary snack with your cocktails. The cocktails were delicious, like the "East Meets West", with most cocktails ranging from $16-20. They have a separate menu for wine and champagne that they brought us awhile later. I think you may need to ask for that if they don't give that to you right away. The drinks were delicious and made pretty quickly, but if you expect table service at this lounge, you may be waiting a long time. We found that the best way to get drinks here is to go to the bar to order, and they can bring the drinks over (or you can wait for them, of course). For the price, I'd expect better service but you may need to go further than Sunnyvale. Overall I think Nokori is a decent bar lounge, and I love the niche is on Japanese whiskey.

    Prettiest flower cafe + Korean fusion all in one spot…read more Drinks: Ube Latte Iced Pandan coco matcha: One of the newest drink and its creamy pandan coco flavor on top and blends well with matcha flavor. My 3 favorite flavors in one combo, would get this again! Sweet lvl was right without any adjustment. Dinner menu: Prime Long Rib (Chef's signature): the meat was so tender and it's more on the sweeter side. US Wagyu Steak with Cheese Dip: Went for medium rare, it tasted a bit overcooked. Their steaks flavor was well seasoned. It comes with crispy bread bites goes well with their dipping sauces. I also dipped the sauce with the steak which gave it even more flavor. Bulgogi Cream Pasta: creamy flavorful pasta in every bite. It comes with crispy garlic bread. LA galbi Omurice: Creamy egg rice packed with flavors. My favorite dishes were prime long ribs and bulgogi pasta! The atmosphere of this place, feels like you're at a flower shop and cafe. They served brunch and now dinner too. I went during dinner time, I love how they have varieties selection of food and drinks. Love the presentation of the plating, and they have floral interior. In addition, they sells fresh flowers bouquet. Highly recommended this place for good high-end Korean fusion food and aesthetic spot to take pictures.

    Hands down my favorite restaurant in San Jose. The food is always excellent, and their cocktails…read moreare delightful. I have never once been disappointed with a dish, and I love trying new dishes on their menu. The staff is awesome, and the place has a cool astehtic vibe. I highly recommend, just know that it is a bit pricey but the experience is totally worth it. P.S. they give you palate cleaners snack in between courses for free. I had hibiscus herbal tea and and an adorable mini waffle cone, filled with crème fraîche, and topped with caviar (honestly never thought I'd like caviar before trying out this place for the first time).

    I've been here twice now and overall have had a really enjoyable experience!…read more On my first visit with a friend, the oysters were absolutely delicious. They also gave us a complimentary caviar cone, which was such a nice surprise and was savory and delicious. We also tried the bruschetta, which was super yummy, along with the octopus, which was flavorful and cooked perfectly. I came back a second time with my best friend and we ordered the New York strip. Unfortunately, that was the one disappointment. The meat was pretty tough and not nearly as tender as I would have expected, especially considering the overall quality of the restaurant. The cocktails, however, are amazing! The ambience is beautiful and the service has been wonderful both times I've visited. Overall, I really enjoyed both experiences and would definitely come back. The only reason I'm giving 4 out of 5 stars instead of 5 is because of the quality of the steak on my second visit.
