India Garden

Authentic Indian cuisine in downtown Pleasanton you betcha! Mild, medium or spicy... spicy! Food is fantastic with the right balance of spice and variety of dishes. Try the Chili Chicken, Karahi Paneer, Chicken Biryani, Garlic Naan and a glass of Kingfisher. Service was excellent.

More expensive than most Indian food that I have been too in the East Bay. But the flavor for all the plates that we did try were delicious. We went with the basics: Lamb Curry, Paneer tikka masala and butter chicken. The garlic naan was $4 but it was thinner and the bread quality was very refined.

Value for money Punjabi style food. Our order for 25 people was decent and tasty. Warm and welcoming staff. Uncle and Aunty running the place are really nice people.

Delicious! The rice Palau almost seemed to glow. The chicken curry could not be faulted. Friendly service. I could find fault in the ambience, but not for the price.

The best Indian/Punjabi restaurant I have ever been too. Everything was fresh and cooked to perfection. I personally recommend the Tandoori Fish and onion naan with Daal. I will be visiting India Garden every time I visit the Bay Area!

This is my current local favorite Indian restaurant. It's not cheap, but it's well worth the cost. Every time I walk downtown I can smell them cooking up a storm and I am always tempted to stop in for dinner. Anyway, highly recommended.

My family has been ordering from here all throughout Covid and India Garden kills it every time. Food is always warm, orders are never wrong, and the food is incredible. My fave dish is the Aloo Gobi and Butter Chicken. Put that on some naan and some rice and you are SET!

The best and tastiest food I have had recently and in a clean atmosphere with friendly staff

Owned by a lovely couple, this is the best Indian restaurant in my opinion, in Pleasanton Downtown. Yes the place is small and cozy, but it can surprisingly fit a lot of people inside. We have had lunch buffet there, dinner there on several occasions and catered from them for a large 100 people event we had at home and have been pleased on all occasions. The food and service, top notch!!

Excellent food. They didn't tell me this at first but there's an "extra spicy" option available that's incredible if you like heat. The palak, mughlai kadhai, baingan bhartha, and fish pakoda are all phenomenal. Haven't had a bad meal here once.

Very lovely and cozy place! We ordered different main plates (chicken and lamb) and lots of naan and everything was amazing. The staff is very kind and friendly, we were greeted with a smile. They are able to accommodate to any level of spicy food tolerance, so if you love Indian food but can't handle the fire this place is perfect for you. We had a very nice time at this nice and cozy restaurant in the heart of Pleasanton :)

Great food and friendly staff. Loved the goat curry and naan

The moment our noses caught the scent of authentic Indian cooking as we walked in the door, hope stirred. The menu was filled with our traditional favorites like mango lassie and matar paneer; however, there were also new taste sensations to experience! Service was, oh, so polite and helpful. I'm a hard-to-feed gluten-free, vegetarian eater (non-celiac so able to eat gluten-friendly) and all food for my plate was verified gf. We will definitely be back!

Amazing Indian food! The food is great quality, and nice portions. A friend and I had the mango chicken tikka masala and the bhaingan Bharta (eggplant). Both were absolutely delicious! The garlic naan was also tasty. The ambiance was nice and the staff were super friendly. Definitely coming back! Also recommend the chai- nice and sweet. Had just a nice time here.

The fish curry was very good, fish was cooked to the perfect consistency and not dry. The breads were delicious.

We ate at this gem of a restaurant over the weekend in their parking lot set up. The fare is Punjabi and the dishes were outstanding. Their Punjabi karhi and butter chicken were so fresh, delicious and very authentic. My husband said the chicken was easily one of the best he’d had. The Gulab Jamuns were amazing too. The hostess was very sweet and motherly. I can’t wait to eat at this restaurant again on our next visit to Pleasanton.

I've only ever been here for the lunch buffet because it's $10 and the regular entrees are a little pricey. That said, it's probably the best Indian buffet I've had, a lot of vegetarian options as well as some delicious butter chicken. They serve fresh naan to your table as well!

when i first tasted it I thought that this is my newest absolute favorite food , and that it deserves to be #1 of all foods(obviously my own opinion,but that was what it tasted like) and that it descended from heaven and was everything that was good and holy in the world I thought that I could eat this for the rest of my life.and that it was the best comfort foods or delicious foods in a restaurant. All my opinion. But I love the complex and exotic type indian foods not so much as simple. :D(see that I have over reacted after reading the rest) The service may not be 5 star but the food is

This privately run restaurant is in the heart of pleasanton downtown. The owner and staff are very hospitable. The interiors are very cozy and classic though a bit tight on space. It made us feel at home. The menu is mostly north Indian. The food tasted awesome, it was served very well. Overall experience was very pleasant. I recommend this place very highly for lovers of Indian food

My go-to in Pleasanton for Indian food. I've tried a lot of the local competitors, but India Garden always seems to have better food, so I keep coming back.

FINALLY!! I found the Indian food I've been craving since moving to the area from San Jose! They're one of the few places that has Gobi manchurian. SO GOOD! The palak paneer was perfect, the lamb korma was incredible, garlic naan on point, butter chicken was killing it. This is my new favorite spot and I can't wait to go back!!!

Wow the food here was downright delicious! It's very rare to have food that speaks to you as you eat it. What an special experience! First time going but definitely not the last. Well done Indian Garden!

I ordered the goat and enjoyed it as a lunch the next day as well. I did add an egg to extend it, but that's not the point here. Excellent food, the chef was accessible, the experience was warm. I will add that, although I grew up in the area, I was here to refresh during a long drive. Walking around the Main Street I saw differing Covid adjustments at the various restaurants. Hey, Im in my 70's and so I completely regard and respect the India Garden's take-out-only policy. It was a part of my decision to order here. I did eat my share of it outside and nearby. I'm still enjoying it as I consider it days later. Thank you IG!

Best butter chicken I've ever had and they give you a really good amount when your order takeout. Highly recommend. Literally the only place I order from when looking for good authentic Indian food.

Awesome place for lunch Buffett , price 11.99$ plus tax is very reasonable compared to what they served , well versed with Veg and non veg options and appetizers . The kheer in desert was awesome , I typically don’t do deserts , but this was diffrent . I always had a iffy notion on Indian buffet as many places use same gravy or paste. This had plenty of items in menu and all were fresh cooked . The stuff and owner was friendly , restaurant was very busy but they took care personally . The only downside has only 4 parking spots but you can find street parking down 2 blocks . Space can be constraint within restaurant but I will give 5 star for their efforts and arrangements. I am going visit again .

Amazing if you seek total home made cooking - and very accommodating. We came in at 9 pm after a show and despite the fact they close at 9:30 pm, they set up an entire room upstairs for the group and we had the best food!

Food was great! Service was also very good. Overall, would recommend! Great spot for getting some Indian food.

It seems to me that this place is under new management after the pandemic, but I might be wrong. We have been visiting this place since 2017 but the food has been very good recently and more importantly, feels very authentic. You can see they used different flavors in different dishes compared to the monotonous masalas that you may have experienced in other restaurants. One of the gripes of an Indian origin person living abroad is not finding authentic food. But this restaurant help me fill that gap. Keep up the good work.

My friends and I together with my wife had an opportunity to eat at India Garden on July 31st, Saturday evening. Food was really well done and the right amount of spice, not too spicy neither blend. Service was very good, someone was always there to attend to your needs. Atmosphere is not the best and they could definitely use a central A/C or at least a split system to cool the place down on a hot evening. But the food was good and that mattered most. We definitely will go back, and I do recommend this place. Great job, keep improving and you will have a wining place. Dilip

The best Indian restaurant I've been to in the states. I find most others under-seasoned and never spicy enough even when I ask for it to be as spicy as possible. Indian Gaerden didn't disappoint. The chicken vindaloo (extra spicy) and the goat curry were incredible. The location is fantastic as well. I would highly recommend and will definitely be back

The food here is consistently well made. I like spicy food, and when I ask for it to be extra spicy, they don't disappoint. When I order for delivery, they take the extra care to wrap the chutney and pickle containers in plastic wrap to make sure they don't spill or drip. This kind of care and attention I really appreciate. I haven't sampled the entire menu, but so far everything has been excellent from the samosa to the vindaloo and curries, salads, dal, rice, naan, and lentils.

Great authentic Indian food at an incredible price for the quality.

Everything we have ever tried at India Garden has been delicious and we have eaten here for a couple years now. Their palak paneer is top notch and comes with a cube of butter on it. Real Indian food often has a spicy kick, so if you can't take the heat, make sure to let them know and ask for mild. It will still have a ton of flavor and some spice for many of the dishes. If you need something on the super mild side, ask for a recommendation. Their Malai Kofta is absolutely amazing. If I could eat from here every day, I probably would. The veggie samosas are on the spicy side, but delicious with chutneys. Sometimes we order extra to make a couple meals

We were looking for some Indian food post visiting Alameda county fair. We have been in bay area for 5 years now and we usually have low expectations of any new place for Indian food. This restaurant just blew us. Best Chhole bhature we had ever in USA. No oil on bhature, they were fluffy and chhole were perfectly mixed with raw onion and dhaniya making then so amazing.The chicken kabab and malai kofta were equally delicious. This place is going to be on our radar whenever we visit pleasanton. The service was fast. Absolutely amazing!!!

India Garden is the best Indian food in the Bay area the service and food is second to none. The Fish pakora and tandoori veggie never had this best in a while anywhere. The owner Paul is so polite and friendly made us feel like we came to his house. The presentation of the buffet was awesome and clean

Food is one of the best in Bay Area. Chicken tandoori and Goat curry both stood out. Owners are super welcoming and serve you food with big smiles. Will be making it one of my go to places!

Good tasty food every time I'm here! Fast pickups too.

We had the tandoori paneer, garlic naan, lamb palak, and rice. It was all delicious and we'll definitely be coming back!

We recently catered from India Garden and the food was amazing. Everyone loved the food and almost all guests asked where did we cater from. Prabh was excellent in explaining everything from how the chefing dishes work to what would go well with what. Their delivery and setup were prompt. Loved their mouth watering food. Would cater from them again for our next big event.

It’s our favourite place since the first time we moved here My son loves all the food prepared here and lovely people

This place is a gem. We ordered many dishes to share and ALL were cooked well and tasted great. Wonderful atmosphere and service. I'll definitely come back next time I'm nearby.

delicious fresh food every time. Friendly service and ready on time. repeat customer forever. I get the Chana Masala, rice, and any naan and it contains several portions.

We visited the restaurant on a Saturday evening with our two toddlers, and had the best Indian meal we've eaten in a long time! The food was fresh and delicious, with big portions. The venue was clean and the staff friendly. We will definitely visit again!

It was great, the guy was super friendly. They have very active customer service. He came to my table probably 11 times over the 40ish minutes we ate. The Goat briyani was so good. A must try, although, the atmosphere could have been a little better. From the outside it's super cute, but when you go in it's a bit lack luster. They had Indian rap which was definitely intresting but the portions were great!

Our family had a great lunch, special the tandoori chicken was very good, the service is very nice. The restaurant is had traditional ambience.

This place is in the middle of downtown Pleasanton. It’s a small restaurant but wow is the food delicious. This has to be one of the top Indian restaurants I’ve been too. Service was good, presentation was excellent and the food its self was top notch.

The chicken tikka Masala was amazing and the staff was very friendly. The taste was excellent! Highly recommended. We also had the Mango Lassi - so good! Came back to get another Mango lassi to go!

I have been looking for authentic Butter chicken for months now.. and this is the only place that had that taste. I highly recommend this restaurant

Have tried this place couple of times. Would definitely recommend for the taste, left satisfied. Would give a shoutout to their chicken leg appetizer. Absolutely well done and juicy, could say that it was well marinated. Garlic naan was soft and just crispy enough for the teeth. Paneer mughalai kadai and Chicken mushroom masala did a good job too for the bread. Would rate the paneer one a notch higher. Jeera rice with the chicken mushroom masala worked better than against the naan. Overall loved it.

Really excellent Indian food in downtown Pleasanton! Came and had all my staples and everything tasted excellent! I have to say the best thing here is the Keema naan. Most of the time they are greasy and falling apart but this one was perfectly crispy and delicious! Best I’ve ever had by far!!!

Every bite I had was truly amazing. Fresh and delicious food, welcoming and fast service. The ambiance is comfy too.

I came here for the lunch buffet, and while originally hesitant because there was only one other group here, I'm so glad we came to this place. For starters, it was $13 for an all you can eat buffet, including Naan. They have plenty of vegetarian options, as well as chicken, lamb, and fish, so you can get whatever you want. Not only that, but the food is actually really good! Fair warning, most of it is marginally spicy, so if you have a low tolerance you should ask ahead (or stick to the butter chicken and tandoori vegetables). Otherwise, a hidden gem!

I absolutely loved Gobi manchurian, perfect crisp and the taste!! Paneer saag was delicious too! Perfect roti with ghee. Definitely the best service and cute ambiance. Will come back for manchurian :)

First things first.. Most Indian restaurants, for that matter most ethnic eateries tend to Americanize their cuisine so much that it is heavy on fats and creams. The thing about India garden is they cook food just like back home in the splendor that I come from, India. First visit to India garden was magical, their hospitality, the ambience of the place(you will forget that you are eating in the US of A. Quaint, simple and inviting. I rarely review anything but I am compelled to by our great experience of dinner there. We were a dozen who planned our dinner get together poorly and didn't have enough time to relaxingly eat. But the family that runs the restaurant made us feel like family. We didn't even feel like we were in a restaurant. Thank you Singhji, thank you the three generation that were running the business for that kind of service only Panjabis are capable of, especially the Sikhs are good at... The young man, the grand parents, an uncle (possibly) were so totally involved in making us comfortable and enjoy the great food unlike in any restaurant... They stayed back beyond their business hours just so they could feed us despite our poor planning... A hundred thanks to you Sardarji May they be blessed...

I don't have words to describe. We always order north Indian vegetarian food from this place whenever we feel like eating out. Amazing, amazing experience with the quality of food. Very very tasty; today we had Dal tadka and mix veg - dal reminded me of home.

Very good atmosphere. There are service staff of greet you as soon as you enter the door. There is high-quality food hall with many exotic foods to choose from. A lovely restaurant in a stunning Victorian house which has some lovely history behind it.

Just ate here for the first time. The mild was a bit spicy for me. Next time he recommended ‘very mild’. But he made modifications and I was able to thoroughly enjoy the meal. Thank you!

Excellent small restaurant right in the heart of downtown. We had a craving for butter chicken & naans :) Food was excellent! Copious quantity. Service was excellent too. All in all, a great find! (parking is street, and wasn't a problem on a weekday)

I love this place. Great home quality food, great service in a cozy setting. Veggie Vindaloo is to die for!!! Note to owner: You need to get a professional crew to scrub the place from top to bottom.

Came here for lunch. Everything was flavorful. Service was good. Asked for spicy but it was a bit mild but still good.

The food is delicious in this family run small restaurant. There were no other tables occupied during lunch hour when i was there. But quite a bit of online orders were prepared. The portions are small and dishes do not come with sides (i.e rice or naan). Lassi drinks were too small for the price

My local Indian go to, better than the rest in Pleasanton / Dublin & I've tried em all. Almost always order Chicken Tikka Masala Ispicy), rice, & veg. samosas. Good level of heat on their spicy. Open reasonably late for the area. Only had one or two times out of the many many I've picked up or had Doordashed disappoint. Cozy lil restaurant setting if you choose to dine in.

Overall, I have to say that this was a very good experience. The service was top quality, and the food was something to be proud of. To specify, the meal which I purchased was a meat based item, which had a nice spice combination and was very aromatic. The bread was soft and had a very nice texture to it. Would recommend.

The food was tasty. It was busy on the weekend so it took some time to get our order however I will say that the food was worth the wait.

After moving from Fremont this has kind of become my to-go Indian restaurant for just about any craving we get be it Indo-Chinese, Biriyani, Catering etc. Met these guys catering to one of my firend's house warming party and food was amazingly done + the service was also commendable. As usual I pulled up my Yelp app and saw a pretty disappointing 3 stars, my conclusion at that point was probably they cater well but in general they may not be at par. My first to-go order was when we had this weird indo-chinese craving and this was one of the closest restuarant that had manchurian and hakka noodles on their menu. So, called them up around closing time to see the menu availability and instead of saying some crap they agreed to whatever we asked for + made it amazingly tasty. This was the start of our love affair with this place. I am big time Biriyani addict and with our regular Lotus Indian not on the way this became our to-go destination for Biriyanis and believe me they really make some awesome lip-smacking biriyanis my personal favorites being Vijaywada, Chicken Dum & the curry one called Ulvaracharu Goat Biriyani. Even their Chicken 65, mirchi bajji are good as appetizers. Special mention for their mutton curry this was when I got them catering for a B-Day party at home, all my guests simply went nuts for the mutton. It was really soft, nicely textured meat with perfect spice combination. We almost ended up having no left-overs. We are at a point where almost all of our friends are getting party catering from these people and they seldom disappoint. The only negative point I see is the restaurant buffet quality has to be improved and food has to be rotated more often. Except vegetable dum biriyani all other vegetarian options are not great and their Rotis are plain horrible. In spite of these fallbacks they are still gonna be in the top of my list for biriyanis, mutton curry and non-veg appetizers till they drop-down on quality (Which i hope never happens). **Review has been written after getting To-Gos almost 60 times / 3 in-house catering /10+ friend's catering party

The food overall was good. Ordered the butter chicken, shrimp curry and tandoori chicken and all items were good. I really enjoyed the nans

Update 08/30: Staff has been really nice in the last few visits. Bumping up the service by 1 star to 4. More like 4.5 now. Good food. Love the Keema Naan. Service though is very poor. Every time we ask for a recommendation, we get no direct answer to our question. Any question you ask, “I don’t know”. What’s in mix veg, what’s your recommendations for a curry. “I don’t know. All are good”. Once they get the proper service staff who know the details and can offer recommendations, I will give this place 5 stars them.

The service was very good. Food was amazing. The chilli chicken was delicious, nice and smoky. Highlight was South Indian lamb curry 🤤. Naan was fluffy, crispy, not much oily 😋. Overall we had a good experience and looking forward to coming again in the future.

I visited India Garden in Pleasanton for lunch at 2:30 PM. The food was excellent; I ordered vegetarian dishes. The service was prompt, and the staff was attentive. They offer a wide variety of options for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians. Note that the parking area is small, so plan accordingly. Overall, I had a very positive experience.

I’ve had my fair share of Indian food back home, and I didn’t think anything could compare, until now. It was almost as if I were there. Every bite reminded me of why I love Indian cuisine, and the naan was soft, warm, and fresh from the oven. Honestly, it might even rival my hometown favorite. I left full and happy.

Mango lassi is made from Alphonso Mango and tastes absolutely delicious! Highly recommend it. The Chole Bhature was okay; not the best I’ve had. Update: I had the paneer and naan; it was incredible! Love this place for the taste and quality.

We tried this place for dinner with friends. We really liked the starters here- chicken and paneer tikka. Samosa is also good. The chicken gravy was too oily, the malai kofta was good. Creamy and soft. Overall, good flavors and good service.

We ordered two dishes for takeout. Both had insane amount of food color. So much so that it’s still on my fingers. The paneer appetiser was flavourful but the paneer was not soft at all. The chicken entree was average. Hope it’s improved.

Punjabi items were good but non Punjabi like soup/biryani you can’t think of ordering here and are below average. One should refrain from ordering those.

We had been to this place around 1.30 and we were surprised to know that buffet will be closed after 2 and no food will be supplied !! Saddest part is they did not informed this earlier. Coming to food, Typical Indian food which was tasty and I would like to rate 2.5 out of 5 for food. We get many good restaurant than this near by.

I like the Ambience and service was good but food was just so so. We had a large group and ordered multiple dishes. Papdi chaat was probably the worst I have had in bay area. Something called papdi was served with yogurt and chutneys separately. Yogurt quantity was less than chutney. Panner tikka was ok. Tikki choley was flavorless. We took one bite and left the rest. Veg Biryani looked like a mashup of veggies with clumped rice. Just one person was brave enough to try it and stopped after a bite. Chicken tikka masala and butter chicken was undistinguishable visually and taste wise. With so many amazing Indian restaurants in bay area, you can skip this one.

Good Indian food, but one of the waiters was rude and seemed like i was bothering him when i asked him where the restroom was. He didn't even tell me. Just nodded his head. When i asked where again he got annoyed and said there without showing me. I also had to ask for water refill 2 times. Never came to the table to see if we needed anything. Please learn some manners if you want to work in a restaurant. Not coming back here. This place needs a lot of work on customer service.

Went here to pick up food on a Sunday afternoon. The place had ample seating. I ordered the Goat Curry and Kheema Naan. I'd asked for a spicy curry - however it was not. It was decent at best and the meat was a bit rubbery. However, the Kheema Naan was awesome and flavorful. Will definitely go back for seconds just for the Paratha.

This has always been my favorite Indian restaurant and the go-to place I recommend to friends. The flavors are consistently great, and I’ve loved coming here over the years. That’s why I’m honestly disappointed with my recent visit. The prices have gone up quite a bit, which I can understand given everything these days—but the portions have gotten noticeably smaller. For the price being charged now, the quantity just doesn’t feel right. I really want to keep supporting this place because the food and vibe are amazing, but I hope they revisit the portion sizes. It’s tough to see a favorite spot lose its balance of quality and value.

Here on Google it clearly states they offer a lunch buffet. I just called to check and was told, NO - they do not offer a lunch buffet. Please get your information correct.

Very average place. I have been to better Indian restaurants in the area. The chicken tikka was not even made fresh. Chicken was rubbery, the gobi Manchuri was raw. The rest of the food was very average.

I have ordered the Methi Malai paneer dish here many times and it’s usually amazing. Today it was overloaded with garam masala and that completely took over the dish which is unfortunate. Please bring back your original ways of cooking and don’t just overload with garam masala and I am willing to give it another try.

Ordered twice from this place . First time biryani was great which was the reason I reordered . Pakoras were soggy. Next time I preferred fish pakoras , same situation, soggy and very poor packaging ( in a bag which could be the reason they were soggy) . Second time biryani just had 2-3 pieces of chicken. Lost my money and time .

Worst place ever! I parked my car behind the restaurant near the back door and i smelled the dead rat. About the food.. i saw ratings and thought they must be serving some good food since the price was also very expensive. But, after i tasted the food i felt like I should never come to this place again. I paid $18 for the chicken birtani.. which was worst biryani i ever had and the paid $15 for each curry.. which i felt like, costco has better frozen curries than this. Please don’t waste ur money on this restaurant. There r many restaurants out there in bublin, where they serve way better food than this.

We ordered chicken Tikka masala for take out. It was pricey as compared to other bay area indian restaurants. Chicken was dry and hard, taste of gravy was not good either. Overall, it was a disappointment.

1.0 star rating 2/18/2019 Horrible place. Very less items in buffet. They serve Tofu and call it Paneer. Service is terrible too, you have to wait for 10 minutes for Naan if you go to their buffet. It is a disgrace to call food from this place Indian food. Ambience (Very small downtown location) is very bad too.

I usually order food from this restaurant. I am generally satisfied. I felt cheated with today’s order. I have been noticing their food quality has gone down. I ordered 2 Tandoori four leg quarters which is not cheap via door dash. I got the food delivered and the tandoori chicken seemed like it was fried oil and was very greasy! It is not worth when you expect the food to match the reputation of the restaurant and the food comes as sub-standard! Please check your food when you order food where there is a chance of re-frying to show it was made fresh!

Ordered take out from this place. There were stapler pins in one of the entrees. Don’t recommend this place at all.

The lady at counter is very rude and ruthless . I have been there customer from last 1 year pretty consistent in getting meal and sometimes only tandoori naan ! I have walked in with kids living in neighborhood asking them 3 naan which is pretty much 13$ likely to be cost of meal ! She said today we can't give you only naan as we are busy buy something else which is pretty stupid and non sense ! Egotistical she said to me you can leave ! They lost me as a customer

Ordered the takeout tonight- the chicken seekh was very salty to the point not editable. And the butter chicken had a lot of chicken skin on. The edible portion of the meat was very little . Very bad experience and overpriced for the quantity and quality of the food we got.
