VJ's Kitchen

I tried their Lunch Buffet today ,tastes very good and have lot many options in both veg and non veg dishes.waiters were very attentive.Will be back definitely

I have been enjoying this restaurant for almost a year. Being new to Indian food I wasn’t sure what to expect. Each time I’ve come in, the staff is always so helpful especially when it comes to picking out a dish to try. I’ve had the chili chicken, the chili shrimp, a lamb dish, onion samosas (which are to die for) I always take an extra order home with me, and the Chinese noodles and it’s always been great! They have a a lunch buffet for just under 20 bucks everyday so that’s cool when Im craving the food but want to stay on a budget. The restaurant is always so clean and I noticed the staff are always wearing gloves which makes me feel pretty comfortable. The irani chai is so yummy Oow and they have this mango milk thing that is refreshing and is perfect for my little sweet tooth. I love coming here, the vibes are just so great. The music they play is a whole vibe. 10/10 would highly recommend.

My husband, mother-in-law, and I visited a couple of weeks ago and enjoyed everything! The food was absolutely delicious, and the customer service was so friendly and welcoming. We’ll definitely be back for dine-in. Today, we are doing pickup for lunch - can't wait!

Food quality was excellent. Portions were generous and the spice level was what I expected for medium spicy like I asked for. The staff was friendly and accommodating.

So I had just come off the road for and checked into my hotel. Everything was closing with the exception of VJ's bar and grill. I didnt check to see the cuisine I jist sar bar and grill so inwas in. I walked over and the the guy was super friendly, but the kitchen was closing. The the guy says, but what were you looking to get, I'll go see if they can make it. I literally had no idea of any dishes so he started naming things. I unfortunately I hadn't heard of or recognized anything. So I chose the 1st thing he said. It took them about 10-15 min to prepare and then I was out the door back to my room hoping the meal was something I'd like. WHEN I OPENED MY BAG THE AROMA HIT MY NOSE LIKE AN OLD TOM AND JERRY CARTOON WHERE THEY'RE FLOATING ON AIR BECAUSE IT SMELLED LIKE HEAVEN!!!! My first bite was amazing and I quickly consumed my first portion. Then I thought to myself he'll I dont know what it is.... I immediately picked up the phone (remember they were about to close when I got there) to ask the name of the dish!! Looking back he probably thought inwas initially calling to complain. When. He answered I said hey are you the guy working at the front I jist left there. I'm the guy who walked in and you took my order 🤣. Then I asked hey what was the name of that dish!!!! This is amazing!!! So to make a long story longer!!! Chicken Tikka Masala... IS A MUST TRY!!! Oh and get the garlic flann (its like a thin pitta bread - I had no idea 🤦🏾) but it was a perfect addition to the meal!!! I didnt think to take photos but it looked jist like it does on their website.

Best food I've had in a long time. Amazing service and atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Went there for the lunch buffet today and the food was amazing. Specifically the paneer tikka masala, it's definitely in the top three and evened out with some other places in terms of paneer tikka. The host was incredibly attentive, I never had to ask for the water to refill, etc. I'm eager to come back and try the dosa next time.

Good food. Medium spice level is probably plenty for folks who like some spice. Friendly service. Will return.

I really like the staff’s hospitality they treated well and suggested few dishes to us. We enjoyed our food one of the best Indian restaurant in Sacramento. Will definitely visit again.

The Lunch buffet is fantastic. I work in the area and basically eat there every day. The made to order food is even better.

Recently i have dine-in with my family, the food is amazing & it’s little rush in the restaurant. Still, we got the best customer service. Will recommend to colleagues as well.

Came here to try the “daily” lunch buffet which apparently is only Tues-Thur. Ordered the samosas, chicken tikka masala, and the chicken kurma. Samosas were good but on the smaller side. The tikka sauce was different than I’d had before, more like an airy tomato soup and the chicken was minimal. The kurma was absolutely horrible. There were four pieces of bone/cartilage in the dish and zero meat. Service was good and our server was attentive, although there were only 2 other tables being served. IMO, the portions are very small for the price.

The food is mid, not very good options for the buffet. Its good enough to eat. But Ive definitely had better indian food nearby. Like "Naan Twist" about 5 minutes down the road. The place itself is nice looking. The lunch buffet seems overpriced for what you get. They didnt even have the basics like Chicken Tikka Masala, though the naan bread was decent!

Wastage food and staff very rude never come here

Went to this place last night about an hour before closing. I ordered a bottle of beer and the waiter immediately wanted payment. It was ok though I just really wanted a beer . So I sit down to have my beer and eventually the waiter came over to see if i wanted food. I ordered the butter chicken burger. Again, I immediately had to pay at the table. I think they thought I was going to dine and dash bc I am Mexican. Very off putting. When my butter burger came it smelled amazing however is was the sloppiest looking burger ever. Huge amounts of sauce slathered on. There was such a small amount of chicken it was a joke. Not enough protein to feed a young child. Total waste of money. It had more sauce than the weight of the burger. Pro tip for the restaurant: dont treat customers like they are going to walk out on you. Your bottle beer is too expensive and your 7 dollar burger is a disgrace to all of India.

Wastage food and staff very rude never come here

I am extremely disappointed with my recent experience at this place. I usually give restaurants the benefit of the doubt, but the food I received was in such poor condition that it actually made me sick shortly after eating it. This is not a small issue it points to a serious lack of quality control and hygiene in the kitchen. The meal looked and tasted off from the very first bite, but I tried to trust that it was just a bad batch. Unfortunately, within a short time, I started feeling unwell, and it became very clear that the food was not fresh and not handled properly. No customer should have to deal with that, especially when they are paying for a service that is supposed to be safe, clean, and professional. It’s honestly shocking that a place serving food to the public can be this careless. I hope the management takes this review seriously, because this is more than just “bad food” it’s a health risk. Attention to cleanliness, fresh ingredients, and proper food preparation is not optional, it’s a responsibility. I will not be returning after this experience, and I strongly suggest they improve their kitchen hygiene and overall quality standards immediately. Customers deserve better, and no one should have to get sick because of a simple meal

The staff here is very rude. Coming to this restaurant is a waste of your time and respect. No one listens to you properly, and they treat as if we'll eat and run away without paying.

Service is so slow. Waiting half hour for mirchi bhaaji. Server is great but the food is coming out of the kitchen so late. He can’t help it. Papdi chaat has no dahi. And you have to pay extra if you ask for dahi in papdi chat. Lol.
