"!!!!! IMPORTANT TO NOTE !!!!!
THIS IS AN ORDER ONLY PLACE WITH NO SEATING AT ALL. THERE IS NO DINE IN. YOU CAN ONLY ORDER ONLINE OR FOR PICKUP.
My husband and I have been on a serious dosa kick lately because we love dosa, and we ordered from ID Cafe the other day because it is just that amazing.
The food absolutely hit. Our favorite was the Vijayawada chicken dosa. It was packed with flavor, perfectly spiced, and incredibly satisfying. Everything tasted fresh and well made, and you can tell they really know how to do dosa right.
As long as you go in knowing it is takeout only, it is 100 percent worth it. If you are a dosa lover or craving solid South Indian food, this place is a great choice. We will definitely be ordering from here again."

"The food is the most consistent and well-tasting I've found among all Indian restaurants in SF.
I've ordered from this place 5+ times now in the last 2 months, and every time the quantity of biryani is plenty.
The taste is authentic and it's just consistent, which is perfect. I've tried 15-20 different places for biryani in SF, and this, I think, is the best one right now."
"Ordered Non-Veg Platter and butter Naan.
The platter had:
Chicken Manchurian – Really tasty and reminiscent of General Tso’s chicken, but less sweet.
Chili Momos – I had no idea what to expect, but these were excellent. The dumplings seemed fried, then tossed in a peppery, savory sauce with bell peppers and onions. The sauce wasn’t runny—it coated each momo evenly. It reminded me of a Chinese stir-fry, but lighter and less greasy.
Chicken Tikka – Tender, juicy, and full of savory flavor. Perfect with the butter naan.
Fish Fry (Swai) – This one surprised me the most. The minced onion sauce on the crispy fish was delicious! It’s more of a paste than a liquid, but the flavor was incredible. It even reminded me of fermented black bean sauces used in Chinese stir-fries.
Highly recommend this place. Will try other dishes next time."

"Delicious! The beef is cut in large cubes, and melts in your mouth. It's tender enough to shred with a fork if you prefer smaller pieces. As for the coconut rice, it's always delicious and not too sweet. It's even great just to just order to have for breakfast (heated, served with an egg on top that's been cook over easy). Stewed Beef Noodle Soup Coconut Rice"
"Pros: excellent packaging for the Thai Iced Tea, and overall. There were no spills, and even if there was, the bag was ready. The bag and Pad Thai box were clean. Presentation was as good as it could possibly be for takeout! Instructions were also followed (non-spicy).
Cons: The Pad Thai was sadly a let down. The noodles were acceptable (only a little powdery), but the chicken was like floss (tough, and flavorless; like it was not prepped or marinated at all), spring onion was also flavorless and paper-like, the sprouts tasted acceptable but oxidized (less than fresh, a bit old). The egg was acceptable, but chunky - resulting in a tougher texture and with less sauce able to coat it (the egg was probably cooked in a rush while multitasking - thrown into the wok in a rush, then left to sit and toughen).
Overall, the experience was not terrible, and it was only my first time ordering from ThongLor, and on a Saturday night about an hour from closing. Maybe it was just a bad night."

"The Chicken Kheema Dosa is a bit weird, but pretty good, and also a ton of food for a decent-for-SF price. It's a gigantic dosa (in an even more gigantic package), with a softer, more crepe-like texture than I've had before (but then I'm hardly an expert on South Indian food). The soft, light dosa stuffed with a ton of minced chicken is a bit messy to eat, but definitely worth it. The green (coconut?) chutney perfectly complements the dosa and chicken; the resulting combination has lots of flavor and a bit of spice. The orange (tomato?) chutney is less exciting, but still not bad. And there's two sambar, as well. Really, the only negative is that there will be a ton left over and I have no idea how to reheat dosas without destroying them…
Anyway, I'm happy I accidentally ordered from the wrong dosa place, but after this pleasant surprise, I will order from them again (and it won't be an accident). There's tons of other stuff on the menu that looks worth trying."
"It’s an ideal way to kick off your lazy weekend with a delightful South Indian Vegan Breakfast. From the meticulous attention to packaging, the fluffy texture of Idli/idly, to the harmonious balance of sambar and chutneys, I thoroughly enjoyed this nutritious and delectable breakfast (and it comes in sufficient quantity it might also cover lunch). It's a perfect blend of healthiness, flavor, savoriness, and light on calorie intake. I surely coming back to try some more."

"The Chicken Tikka Masala was disappointing, the flavour was there but it was lacking the butter and cream that makes the dish a classic. However, the tandorri chicken in the sauce was amazing!! It was moist and had a beautiful smoked flavour.
The Garlic Naan tasted a bit stale, I'm not sure why it was a little chewy and flat as though it was cooked the day prior. It also lacked garlic and the buttery flavour. It was a great portion.
The rice lacked flavour unfortunately compared to other Indian restaurants.
The Keema Nan was really nice!
Overall, this restaurant could do with investing in better quality ingredients. I can tell the cooking is fantastic however some of the dishes lacked the flavour and the quality to give it five stars. "

"Baigan Bharta and Boti Kabab are excellent. Baigan can be difficult to cook but Royal Indian Cuisine has mastered the spice mix and the texture. The spices in the Boti Kabab are well balances and the meat tender. The portions are generous. If you're not accustomed to the heat level of South Asian cuisine, please note that "spicy" really is very spicy. It was just right for me. I've had a hard time finding good Desi food and am so happy to have finally found a winner in Royal Indian Cuisine."
"GARLIC NAAN was amazing! pretty big too. I was quite impressed with the SAAG PANEER- great portions, paneer was soft and fresh, and the spice level was pretty close to restaurants in India. Would def order again!"

"Everything was very good ! Pad Thai was not greasy or slimy, it was about the best pad Thai I've tried. Sides I ordered were excellent. Really happy that I tried this place and would recommend"
"Fast and so delicious! The veggie curry puffs are a fav - soft and so good, the green sauce it comes with is so refreshing and you get 4 puffs.
Pad se ew also good, only thing i'd add is that if it costs extra for extra veggies i want way more veggies. but flavor good, not as good as their curry, but still good."

"Lamb Samosa were very small and filled either onion. More onion than lamb in each bite. Way too expensive for the little 3" triangles. Cheese naan was good. Chicken Tikka Masalatasty. Tandoo chicken leg was dry and again $10 for a chicken leg is a bit high. "
"This pizza is a decent size and has a fair amount of veggies on it, but lacks flavor. There doesn't seem to be enough sauce below the cheese. Rather, it seems like the sauce was dabbed on randomly across the pizza, which when combined with the amount of cheese and size of paneer, makes it a little dry overall. Think it could be better with more sauce and smaller pieces of paneer. "

"I have been ordering from the place for years and the food has been consistently amazing. My favorite dishes are the vegetable biryani, the chicken boti, the lamb, and the Chicken Roll. However, the Chicken Roll and Mix veggie Roll are *packed* with raw onions, both red and white, to the point of insanity and the restaurant has removed the option to request no onions. So be warned if you get them. Amazing food regardless. Will order again and again. "
"HUGE portion of lamb biryani! It fed me for 3 days. Just a little too spicy for my taste. If you're looking for a lot of bang for your buck this is your place. "

"This is my go to Indian spot - it leans more North Indian / Pakistani. The chicken korma is my favorite here - other restaurants it's less orange and more yellow and the flavor profile is different. The amount of pulao you get is awesome along with the garlic naan. This has been my spot for almost 15 years and the quality hasnt gone down. Nicest people too!"
"Absolutely the best. I grew up in the neighborhood and have been eating here since the restaurant's original iteration. All together I have been eating here for 20 or more years. They are the kindest most hospitable people.
I eat their food regularly and would always order again. The food is so delicious and each dish has a distinct taste and appearance. Whatever you order you cannot go wrong.
Some of my go to's are the chicken tikka masala, dal, dal saag, navratan korma, lamb vindaloo, and aloo gobi. The portions are great and the food is so fresh. Plenty of vegetarian options and meat dishes.
Do yourself a favor and dine in here sometime too because it feels like family.
Thank you so much Aslam's Rasoi, we love you and are so happy you are doing what you do.
Long live Aslams's Rasoi!"

"We've ordered from here for many years and it's always great. I love the Vegetable Korma and Garlic Naan. Their Tandoori Sampler is also excellent, though sometimes we get the chicken boti instead. Their chicken tikka masala has a great smoky flavor and my huband loves their lamb dishes. We ordered tonight and had planned to get their chicken wings, which are also a favorite, but they weren't on the menu. Hopefully they will be again soon. They have some of the best wings in SF!"
"Ordered the chicken tikamasala and it was very flavorful with a good amount of chicken. Also the spicy goat with lentils really packed the punch so beware as they don't hold back on the heat! Garlic naan was definitely on point too. Takeout took less than 15 minutes to be ready!"

"Pad Thai has a very nice flavor and not just sweet like some places. When I first opened the box I could smelled the turnip and chives which is more authentic and most of the places don't have. It also has the wok smell and nice char on the chicken. I got medium spice and it's pretty spicy. $18 for chicken pad thai is a little steap but I'll def be ordering again."
"I had the Poh-Pia Vanida, which was an incredible starter for my meal! I also ordered the cashew nut with chicken and jasmine rice, which was a very generous portion. I finished up with the cucumber salad, which was both fresh and refreshing. I was very happy with my meal and can't wait for my next visit."
