"I love their pongal. Close to what i eat at home in India (Tamil Nadu). However i have one complaint. The amount of chutney they give is very less. For an order of uttapam and pongal they have 2 tiny boxes of chutney (similar to the size u get for mint chutneys)."

"The best dosa in SF. They give 3 flavorful chutneys and Sambar. The dosa tastes fresh in their special packaging. The signature dosas are packed. Already ordered again "
"!!!!! 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."

"I ordered Aloo Paratha (Potato) and Chana Saag (Vegan). The paratha is ample filling and is probably the best in the city. The Chana is well balanced and flavorful. I like that it is not loaded with cream and oil.
I actually requested the restaurant to send me chana masala instead of the Chana saag. And they kindly sent me both!
PS: the restaurant should consider adding their chhole (chana masala) to their menu! It's delicious too ! "
"I paid $30 for this Chicken Tikka Masala, and I am extremely disappointed. There were only 3 small pieces of chicken, mostly sauce, and the naan bread was badly burnt.

"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. "

"Darn good...tender Chicken Tikka Masala, good sauce, light color but rich flavor in the right way, no sweet or sour overtones, just straight up.
"Extra Spicy" was mild for me but I def welcome the little bit of bite.
The tamarind sauce is thin but legit, the green chutney is thick and also not too sweet or sour, exceptional.
Nan is nan but they do that right too.
Excellent quality meal."
"I ordered the Palak Dal combo, and it turned out to be a really satisfying meal! The Palak Dal was flavorful and comforting — rich, perfectly spiced, and had that homemade taste that’s hard to find in takeout.
The Basmati rice was fluffy, aromatic, and paired beautifully with the dal. It wasn’t oily or clumpy — just clean and well-cooked. And to top it off, they included two papads instead of one — fresh, crisp, and a great crunchy side.
Everything came neatly packed and still warm. It’s simple food done right — healthy, hearty, and full of flavor. Definitely something I’d order again.

"I'm a regular customer of this restaurant. Their food is tasty and fresh. Portions are decent. Would order again."
"The Chicken Biryani (Gluten Free) was just an oily blob of rice, and the chicken wasn't flavourful. Not sure what was "biryani" about that oily rice.
The Eggplant Pakora(Vegan) was not crispy at all, and there was barely any pakora batter on the slices. Very overpriced for what you get."

"First time and I'll be back - picked up a delicious, fresh and hot order. Garlic naan was perfectly spiced, and soft for dipping in soup and sauces. Lentil coconut soup is light yet well spiced. Coconut rice a balanced blend of spice, to accommodate any dish. Lamb Lawabdar is a very interesting spice combination, not overpowering - great to match with my other dishes. Arugula fog salad was beautiful - fresh and well blended. Easy to share 4-5 dishes among 3-5 people, depending on hunger levels. "
"You know it's bad when you have to root around your spice cabinet to find things that would make the dishes taste better. The butter chicken was sweet and lacked depth, and the saag paneer was bland as well. A waste of money. Would not order from here again."

"The Lamb Biryani , Butter Chicken and Tandoori Chicken were amazing!!!"
"I've re-ordered from this Pacifica restaurant several times. The Chicken Tikka Masala is consistently great, seasoned perfectly with an excellent balance of chicken and sauce. The rice is always fresh and delicious and cooked perfectly. This time I tried the Masala Fries -- a delightful surprise! I was a expecting a saucy dish, but the fries were served crispy and light, bursting with flavor. I will definitely order these again. Overall, I've been happy with every dish I've ordered."

"Top notch - I love any of their kormas, and the Momos are exceptional. their sauces, curries and dips are so fragrant and authentic - tastes like mom's cooking but slightly more elevated. Despite all the amazing food in the Richmond district, this one serves a very important niche as comfort Nepalese / Indian. Would also suggest dining in."
"Excellent food at this new spot. The sauce on the chicken tikka was so balanced and delicious. The spinach with paneer was perfect, and even better with the mint chutney. We will definitely be back for dine-in."

"Every dish we had was excellent. The lamb biryani was delicious; the lamb were in large tender chunks. The chicken kofta biryani was equally good. So were the samosa and chicken tikka masala which they let me try for free (so kind of them!) We will definitely be returning soon!!"

"My favorite takeout Indian food in San Francisco. Don't miss the saag paneer and the butter chicken. Both are brimming with flavor. Chicken is fresh, juicy, and not at all dried out (like Rose Indian is in my experience). Incredibly fast service if you live in Castro, Glen Park, Noe, etc. Yummm!"
"Everything was delicious, fresh and beautifully spiced. Saag Paneer is perfect, not too rich and really well balanced; Samosas stayed crispy even after a few hours in the fridge! Only complaint is the pieces of chicken in the Butter Chicken Masala were tiny, more like shreds. Definitely one of the best Indian restaurants available on DD."

"The thali was so good. I've rarely had Indian food in the Bay area where they try and be balanced about the nutritional value in the food. There were enough greens and salad, the curries had vegetables in them and not just the typical orange fatty curry you get at Indian restaurants.
The saag in the thali was so tasty and fresh"
"It's ok. Tikka Masala was a bit watery and same with the Mango Lassi. The food isn't bad at all, but I used to live near several Indian food places that had more flavorful and rich tasting food. Like for example, the Mango Lassi I'm used to is sweet, mildly sour and rich and has some consistency, whereas this one tastes watered down. Again, not bad, food could just be richer."
