"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.

"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.

"Everything here is always delicious. Basmati Rice is nice and fluffy; Gluten free naan is airy and tender; Masala Chai is deep, rich, and warming; and the Mango Lassi is refreshing and evens out the spice. The Chicken Tikka Kebab is a great value and so much simply prepared healthy protein. I could eat a double serving each time; it's so good."

"We ordered 6 different things, including the chicken coconut curry, momos, and samosas and they were all delicious. The Coconut Chicken Curry was creamy and absolutely phenomenal with a good amount of chicken. The Momos were my favorite, definitely wothit, as they are big, well filled, and you get 6 of them for only $11! Also ordered the best roti I've ever had. Definitely coming back often. "

"I’m pretty disappointed with this order. It seems like this might be a ghost kitchen because the restaurant doesn’t appear on Google Maps, and unfortunately the food reflected that. A few things tasted old especially the rajma, which had a stale flavor. The rotis also weren’t fresh or made to order; they tasted like they had been sitting out. The mixed vegetables were clearly the frozen bagged kind and were cooked with almost no seasoning or flavor. For the price, I expected much better quality. I wouldn’t order from here again unless they improve the freshness and overall preparation of the food"

"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."

"Ordered the second time from this place to try a different biryani (got the butter paneer last time). the Hyderabadi Paneer Biryani (Jumbo) was great, the rice is very well flavored. would be better if the paneer was not cooked separately from the rice, but still beats other Biryanis in SF"

"got the butter paneer biryani and Peri Peri paneer with naan twisters. the peri peri was average at best, no flavor besides raw chilli powder's taste. but the paneer biryani was a 10/10 - lot of paneer, generous portions and the taste was very good as well"

"Their garlic naan is my favorite in the area (moist unlike the drier naan from other restaurants). The chana masala is thick and gravy like; super delicious! Aloo Gobi is also good~ chicken biriyani is amazing. Only sad thing is the aloo palak has cream in it so my vegan gf cannot eat it "

"I usually don't leave reviews, but Ocean Indian Cuisine is by far my favorite restaurant!!! It is so delicious and the staff is so friendly. I find that their portions are super large and you always get your moneys worth. The food is so flavorful you can tell they cook each dish with love <3"

"It's been too long since I've been in person, glad Chutney still has great food. The Bengan Bharta had larger pieces of eggplant than I'm used to, I liked it, and was the best seasoned example I've had lately. The Paneer Tikka Masala was not disappointing either. Need to visit in person again as I'm sure it'd taste even better. Thank you, Chutney "

Definitely try the potato and peas dish and also .. the buttery beautiful naan. Get everything. It's worth it. Thanks fam! Oh and never miss the amazing service they provide. I love having them in the neighborhood. "

"Overall good flavor on all the dishes, however the Butter Chicken, Chicken Tikka Masala, and Indian Eggplant In Salan Sauce had hardly any protein/veg, and was mostly the sauce. Fairly disappointing. The Palak Paneer was a better ratio of sauce to cheese. With the amount spent on each dish there should have been much more protein!"

"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."
