"Curd Rice was delicious, best of home cooking, very comforting, just perfect for a snack or late-night easy meal. Vadas were crispy and delicious, although undersalted. Puliyodharai was a huge disappointment, I did not enjoy it at all. It was very one-note with the sour tamarind masking every other flavor. Podi Dosa was, as always, crispy, thin, and delicious!"
"These 14 mini idlis were absolutely perfect for a South-Indian comfort meal. Soft, fluffy, and served steaming hot with a flavorful sambar and two chutneys — one coconut, one tomato. The sambar had just the right spice balance and depth; it didn’t feel oily or heavy at all.
As a vegetarian, this is the kind of dish that hits home — light, nourishing, and authentic. The mini-idli format makes it fun and easy to eat, and you can taste that the batter’s well-fermented and freshly steamed.
Verdict: Ideal for breakfast, lunch, or even a light dinner when you crave something homely and satisfying."

"Mutton Masala has authentic Indian taste. Meat was cooked perfectly and the portion was good too. Very tasty!"
"We have been regular customers of Noura for a long time, ordering almost 4–5 times every month and even visiting your restaurant. I personally love the quality of your food, which is why I was genuinely shocked and disappointed with our recent order.
For $20 worth of Mutton Sukka and $20 worth of Kottu Paratha, the portion sizes and quantities we received were simply unacceptable. At those prices, we expect the quantity to be consistent with what we are paying for.
I called to raise my concern, and the response from the person I believe was the owner was simply that a complimentary item would be offered next time. While I appreciate the gesture, that doesn’t really address the issue. Customers should receive the quantity and quality they pay for in the first place.
We spend well over $300 a month at Noura, and as loyal customers, we honestly feel shortchanged by this experience.
What disappointed me further was the service. The young man who usually attends to us has always been polite, apologetic whenever there was an issue, and even thoughtful enough to include some extra sweets occasionally. This time, however, the overall service and response were quite poor.
I hope you take this feedback seriously. Loyal customers deserve consistency, transparency, and respect. We genuinely want to continue supporting Noura, but experiences like this make us question that loyalty."

Boneless Chicken Biriyani was horrible - one of the worst biriyani's I have had in the bay area. The chicken was really really bad - I threw the pieces out and ate just the rice. Will not be ordering that again!"

"Komala Vilas is truly one of the best places for authentic South Indian food. Their soft whole wheat chapatis, ladoos, Mysore pak, everyday thali, and pillow soft idlis are just a few of my favorites. What I love most, though, is how comforting their food feels. On long, exhausting days, a meal from Komala Vilas feels a little like home and always helps ease the homesickness."
"If you’re craving a solid South Indian meal, Komala Vilas understood the assignment.
Their daily thali is lowkey elite. The portions? Insane. Like they did not hold back at all. You’re definitely not leaving hungry. Everything tastes fresh, comforting, and actually feels worth what you’re paying.
Honestly, for the price, it’s a steal. Easy go-to spot when you want a proper, filling meal without overthinking it."

You should simply call it chana bhature, not Rajouri Garden Chana Bhatura, the taste is decent but the bhaturas somehow were bitter.

"Loved Ulavacharu! The prices were very reasonable, the food superb. I'm not even a big chicken fan, but I'm ordering the konaseema chicken fry again. And how did they make the guttivankai gravy and saag paneer so good? The bread basket was enough to accompany 3-4 meals. If you don't like your food at least moderately hot, this is not your groove. If you like it Desi hot, I highly recommend."
"I have been a long-standing customer of Ulavacharu and a big fan of their Gongura chicken biryani and Guntur chicken biryani.
However recently they have started skimping on the chicken. The taste is still great but there is no chicken to eat.
I hope they read this review and improve on their chicken portion in the biryani."

"I had an amazing experience with the Bhel Shel Thali! They give a lot of food for such an affordable price. It's definitely great value for money! highly recommended."
"Star Chaat Cuisine is the place to go if you’re craving heavenly stuffed in Babhubali size Aloo Paratha with raita. I personally preferred the Aloo Paratha over the Paneer Paratha. I enjoyed the fresh, thick grated carrot boondi raita with it. I didn’t even bother with the pickle they gave me. To end my rich North Indian breakfast on a high note, I had some Ajwain Prantha with homemade chai."

"Garlic Naan was very tasty and large size as well, worth ordering to pair with their curries.
i recently ordered Dhaba Chicken which was amazing. This time I tried the Achari Chicken , I can now confirm their chicken non-veg entrees are among the better options in Bay area. I look forward to trying the mutton & seafood dishes in future."
"Sufi Kaju Chicken cashew based white gravy with methi is really nice, good flavor & different from the usual non veg entrees. I still prefer the Dhaba Chicken since I'm fond of spicy food, but highly recommend trying this once.
Butter Naan is decent, but I prefer the Garlic Naan which is great."

"The quantity of sambar with Vijaywada Idly (3 Pcs) and Madras Masala Dosa wasnt enough. Like their Madras Masala Dosa"

"Ordered "flavored rice" at a higher cost but got regular rice. So that was disappointing. The flavored rice is a derivative of their Biriyani which is very good. Highly recommended - if they actually give it to you. This place makes good food so 5 stars. "
"This is my go to place for Hara Bara Kebab! Hands down best in the area. The Paneer Tikka is delicious as well. Cooked to the right consistency with perfect amount of marination.
I was a little disappointed with the green Chutney however. The curd was over fermented (possibly spoiled). I got a very strong whiff of pungent sour smell as soon as I opened the container. When I tasted it, it was definitely spoilt! The restaurant should give curd based cold items in a separate bag from warm items to avoid situations like this! "

The store guy said for fresh jalebi come around 9-30am.
When we got there it was old stale and cold. It tasted terrible.
