"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."

"Problem: Weekdays, Busy at work, no time to make sambhar, poriyal and a kootu.
Solution: Instant Pot the rice, have the above delivered. Enjoy these homemade-style items from Bhimas. This rarely fails. For 18-odd dollars, 16oz portion sizes is sumptuous for 3 adults. Ohh did I mention that these are delicious too? "

"The smell and taste reminded me of Hyderabad chicken65 that I had as a kid! It was amazing! I just wish the pieces were a little smaller to have the effective coating overall insteadof just on the outside! Still one of the best I have had in the States! Highly recommend to try if you can tolerate a bit of spice;)"
"Pachimirchi Kodi Vepudu was bland. Wouldn't order again. Kothimera Kodi Fry tasted good and this would be a dish I'd re order. Their quantities are very less, not worth the $17 per item for the price though."

"Minty Chicken Tikka (6 Tikka) is super flavorful, well cooked pieces of chicken breast with delicious sauce.
Yummy Veg Samosa (3 pieces) was great.
Would order both again."
"The Desi Malai Koftais amazing! I'd never had it before, but now it is a comfort-food go-to! It's good both mild and spicy. I prefer everything with the Coconut Rice or the Jeera Rice. Portions are good for at least 2 servings. And I was surprised by the number of triangle pieces of paneer that was in the Shahi Paneer-Premium. Good price, support local, and super yummy & filling."

"Frst time trying this place - it's really tasty. I ordered spicy, and it delivered exactly as I hoped. The naan is HUGE, and pillowy and just amazing. Will order again. Bet! 5 stars isnt high enough... I had to pause mid eat to write the review. "
"I ordered my dish spicy, and instead it was very sweet. I had to add my own spices to counter the sugary taste. I like my face to turn red, and to sweat profusely while enjoying my Indian dishesthe last time I got the Paneer Tikka Masala, it was the level of spiciness im looking for. Not this... dessert flavored sauce. Ill try then one more time after this and hopefully the feedback will be applied. The Plan Naan (the app has it spelled wring- not me) is just as dope as last time. Gigantic and fluffy. Was on the fence between 2 and 3 stars, but seriously - even through the heat of the spices I added myself, it's still too sweet. Blech! "

"I've been coming here since they opened. This is my favorite place in Sunnyvale Downtown. I've never been disappointed with the food. The food and service is amazing, the restaurant is very clean and staff is friendly. The butter chicken has perfect amount of masala as well as the chicken 65, which are my personal favorites."
"The Chicken Biryani, ButterChicken, an Garlic Chicken tasted quite good, was fresh, portions were okay, more chicken would have been nicer especially since the butter chicken and garlic chicken were $20 each and were just put in medium size containers with no sides. $62 for these 3 items... Definitely think it's a bit too value inefficient for me to order again in general..."

"I was not expecting the irani chai to be of such high quality, I hope they maintain it."
"The Paneer 65 Roll was flavorful and hearty. Crispy paneer pieces coated in a mildly spicy sauce, wrapped with fresh onions and a soft paratha — perfect balance of crunch, spice, and creaminess. You get that street-food vibe but in a cleaner, more consistent package.
The Irani Chai was the star for me — rich, creamy, and slightly sweet with a subtle hint of cardamom. It complemented the spicy roll perfectly and added that nostalgic café-style finish."

"Wow, I've had a lot of Indian food but this place is so good! great food but also very well packaged. the Szechuan Egg Fried Rice is literally addicting, Bhel Puri is perfectly seasoned/flavored with perfect textures, South Indian Pani Puri(8) is delicious and well flavored, Masala Chai is comforting and masala is subtle not overpowering, and Rasmalai Pastry is so tasty and unique flavoring. highly recommend!"
"Nearly $6 for one sad looking Aloo Samosa is theft in broad daylight. Ordered thinking there will be two pieces in one plate like most other places. The photo is also misleading. Mid food overall but priced like a Tier 1 restaurant.
Never ordering from here. Will make sure friends and loved ones know how much of a scam this "restaurant" is. Avoid. plenty of decent Indian restaurants nearby."

"44. Chicken Karahi was a 2.5/5. It had a lot of oil just dripping out but most importantly lacked any rich flavor to go along with it.
Tandoori paneer was a 2/5. The paneer had very little flavor again.
The good thing was that the order was fast but that doesn't compensate for the taste.
I would recommend looking at similar dishes from Mantra India from Mountain view to see how you can improve both your dishes. They are my favorite."

"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! "
