We went to Anantara for dinner with kids. The ambience was nice. It has a nice upscale vibe to it. Soft lighting and spacious indoor seating. There is also a little outdoor sitting area too and they have heaters for this area to keep your dining experience warm. The heaters were fully adjustable and worked well. The staff was polite and seated us promptly. As for food, overall, all the dishes were flavorful and of a good serving size. I wouldn’t say this was the best tasting south Indian food but it was enjoyable. I would recommend this place for a cosy outing with friends or family. One more thing – they charge 20% service charge for a party of 5 or more. (Total adults, not children.)

We had a fantastic experience celebrating a birthday at Anantara in Pacific Commons! The ambience is lovely, and the staff are genuinely friendly and attentive. They went above and beyond by providing a complimentary dessert for the birthday celebration and even took pictures for us – such thoughtful touches!

Starters:
The Tender Jack Cutlet (tender jackfruit, sweet potatoes, beets, tamarind-date chutney) was absolutely top notch. For Valentine’s Day, they made them heart-shaped, which was adorable! Highly recommend this dish.

The Inji-Puli Lotus Root was one of the most amazing lotus root dishes we’ve ever had. The lotus root medallions were marinated in a tangy ginger-tamarind glaze and had a lovely sweet, fluffy texture.

We also tried a fried chicken dish from their special Valentine’s Day menu – it was nicely spicy and delicious.

Main Course:
The Veggie Potlam Biryani was presented beautifully, wrapped in a banana leaf and served with raita. It was warm and incredibly flavorful.

However, the absolute star of the meal was the Baked Cauliflower dish! It came with an amazing gravy and two small Malabar parathas – this was outstanding!

Drinks & Desserts:
The Lemon Rosé Soda was okay, nothing special. For dessert, we ordered their special Strawberry Cake, which was great, and received a complimentary Chocolate Mousse Cake that was equally delicious.

Overall, Anantara delivered a memorable dining experience with creative dishes, excellent service, and a warm atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Anatara: Next-Level South Indian Cuisine is Hiding in Plain Sight in Fremont!

As a local, I’m honestly kicking myself for not discovering Anatara sooner! My party of three managed to snag a reservation for lunch on Thanksgiving Day, and thank goodness we did. The place was bustling, but the service was incredibly attentive and top-notch, even with the holiday rush. The interior is beautiful, spotless, and nicely decorated, setting such a great, comfortable vibe.

Starters That Stole the Show:
We started strong with three appetizers that were seriously delicious.
* The Railway Cutlets were adorable heart-shaped perfection, perfectly spiced and incredibly tasty.
* We devoured the super yummy Gunpowder Idli Bites served with a coconut chutney that was dangerously good.
* The Crab Podimas was a unique and flavorful dish–a new one for us. My only thought was that it absolutely needed a side of fresh roti to complete the perfect rainy-day meal at home!

Mains That Felt Like Home:
Nothing we ordered was overly spicy, which was lovely. The dishes felt authentic and lovingly prepared.
* The Goat Potlam Biryani tasted exactly like something my grandmother would have proudly made. It was truly super yum!
* The Non-Veg Thali was a fantastic choice, offering a little bit of everything. Every single item on the plate, including the two desserts, was delicious.
* But the absolute star of the day, my favorite dish we ordered, was the Halibut Pollichathu. The fish was perfectly cooked and gorgeously spiced. It came with a side of what seemed like mashed cassava with coconut chutney, which was such a unique and inspired pairing that complemented the fish flawlessly.

Passing the Ultimate Test:
They passed my crucial test: the Cha. I firmly believe a perfect cup of cha is the tell-tale sign of a great Indian kitchen, and theirs was absolutely spot on. My dining companions also enjoyed their nicely presented mimosa. The fact that the food and the cha were both flawless tells you everything you need to know.

I saw so many mouth-watering dishes being served to other tables, and I’m 100% returning soon to try more of the menu. Anatara is a must-visit spot, and I can’t wait for my next meal here!

I’ve been wanting to come to Anantara for sometime now. The restaurant itself is stunning — beautifully designed inside and out, with a warm and elegant ambiance that immediately sets the tone for a great dining experience. From the appearance to the food, you can tell that the owner put a good amount of thought into this restaurant.

For starters, we tried the Karuveppilai Shrimp — pan-fried shrimp with curry leaves and a flavorful peanut dip — and the Denji Rava Fry, a perfectly spiced semolina-coated crab fried to golden perfection. Both dishes were outstanding and packed with authentic South Indian flavor.

For our mains, we went all out with the Grandma’s Goat Meat Curry, Lobster Igguru (paired wonderfully with Poricha Porotta), Malabar Black Cod in a coconut milk and raw mango gravy, and the Nalli with Poricha Porotta, featuring a tender, fall-off-the-bone goat shank. Every dish was cooked to perfection — deeply flavorful, beautifully presented, and wonderfully balanced. You could really taste the care and authenticity in each bite.

For dessert, we ended with the Gulab Jamun Brûlée, which was creative and indulgent. While the concept was fantastic, it was way too sweet — toning down the sugar would make it just right.

Special shoutout to our waiter, Ganesh, who was incredibly friendly, attentive, and professional throughout the evening.

Overall, Anantara is a true culinary gem in Fremont. If you love refined South Indian flavors presented with creativity and care, this place is a must-visit. We’ll definitely be back.

Decent food overall and a good place to try some Kerala cuisine. The menu has a fair variety, and the flavors were enjoyable, though nothing particularly stood out. It’s a nice option for a one-time visit if you’re curious about Kerala-style dishes.

Was excited to finally have lunch at Anantara. We ordered the kuzhipaniyaram, okra kurkure, Kerala egg roast with a side of parotta and appam. The food was good but the service was lacking. It was very slow, taking too long between dishes to come in. I was actually looking forward to try the Thali there based on reviews & pictures. But it was not present in the menu card at all. When we were halfway through eating our food is when we noticed thalis going to other tables. On asking the server, he said it’s there everyday but it’s not printed on the menu :/ I did not get the logic of it. Then atleast they should tell us that it’s something available while handing out the menus. For dessert, we got the elaneer fruit payasam – it was good, but it should be named badam fruit kheer, that’s how the taste and consistency was with no hint of elaneer. Overall, I would still like to come back to try their other dishes, especially non-veg and also the Thali. Hoping they fix these service mishaps.

Always a good experience. One of the newer Indian restaurants in the Bay Area with a great ambience, focusing on more than just the food.

The menu keeps changing and is focused on dishes from the southern part of India. Spice levels are mild, service is efficient, and food is tasty.

They also have a very large thali experience, that’s highly recommended. Slightly expensive, but plenty of food that may be hard to finish in its entirety. Non-veg thali is recommended.

We had an absolutely delightful dining experience at this Indian restaurant! The veg and non-veg thalis were a true feast. Beautifully presented, full of authentic flavors, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of spice. Every dish felt like it was made with care and tradition in mind.

A special shout-out to our server, Narendran, who made the experience even more enjoyable. His warm hospitality, attention to detail, and genuine enthusiasm for the food were outstanding. He guided us through the menu with great recommendations and ensured everything was perfect from start to finish.

This place is a gem; delicious food, impeccable service, and a wonderful atmosphere. Highly recommend it to anyone craving an authentic taste of Southern Indian.

Takeout: we tried take out from this place. We ordered potlam biryani chicken and chicken fry appetizer. perfect for a family with kids.

Medium spicy was perfect balance. It did seem milder side. But enjoyed the flavors. Totally recommend it.

Possibly my favorite dining so far. Incredible ambience — most amazing soothing almost sweet woody scent throughout with the most beautiful leafy display at the entrance with string lights. Lovely light green theme. Food tasted sensational. We got the banana parotha, vegetable potlam biryani, chicken fry, and pistachio tiramisu. All decadent, especially the biryani the most divine flavors. Crowded and busy so have a reservation or be prepared to wait but so so worth it. Great service too kind people.
