Don’t be fooled by the seemingly odd location, next to Kerry House bar. We’ve tried all the other Indian restaurants within a 10+ mile radius – the food here is hands down and consistently the best.

Some of the best Indian food in this part of Oakland! The portions are decent, flavor amazing, and they don’t play around with spice levels! Don’t ask for Indian hot if you can’t handle it! The okra dish is delicious and every time I order lamb and I’m never disappointed. They have chai available free of charge in the dining room too, goes well with the spicy dishes. The naan is also in good portions and not skimped on. Sometimes the restaurant can be super crowded, so try to visit on slower times or order takeout.

Food was not very fragrant, service was mediocre (I had to go up to the front to get someone’s attention every time I needed something bc no one would come by for 10-20 minutes, which made me feel very rude but there’s a limit to how much I can wait;; we were only one of three tables there, too.), and the food is expensive for the quality you get.

Visiting a friend I was craving indian food and this place hit the spot. Parking was easy and directly across the street. Slid in for dinner on Monday, service was prompt, portions were reasonably priced, and I can’t wait to try try the rose lassi next time.

I’ve been ordering from them for years. It’s very good, one of my favorite Indian takeout places in Oakland.
If you want spicy you need to tell them you want spicy. Otherwise they’ll give you a more mild version.

I’m a professional chef. The service was professional and patient. One server and three cooks handled an increasingly busy dinner service. To have a full dining room and not rush the diners takes patience and professionalism.
The food was made to order. I watched it with my own two eyes. Vegetables weren’t overcooked, curries were delicately balanced, and the fish was juicy. My guest lived and cooked in India for years, raised a family on Indian food, and after eating seven dishes from Raj’s even she was satisfied.
The atmosphere was intimate. I could hear the conversations of the other happy diners mixing with the sounds and smells from the three man kitchen.
I wish their large menu was larger. That would give me more reasons to return.

This is our neighborhood place. Great food. Good service almost all the time. I saw the review about the rude guy. I think I have met him. That us an outlier. I’ve been a client for 20 years and the service was always great and usually female. When the pandemic is over, this is a great spot for an early or late lunch.

One of my absolute favorite hole in the walls. Came back after 4 years, so happy the quality is the same after Covid. This is a no frills dining experience, you come for the food. And the food delivers. You can tell everything is made with intention and doesn’t cheat with using too much diary or sugar or oil. The flavors are bombastic but the feeling is nourishment. Their lunch specials are complete and generous, they give you naan and rice and lentils and aachar and salad with any entree!! I wish all restaurants were like this.

Update: excellent service through the toughest of times during the pandemic
5 stars!
Best value for the money amongst dozens of Indian restaurants.
Rude at times on phone orders… people that get abusive/impatient every time I call-even after 9 years of patronage. Awful…($1000’s spent). However, since the food was good, I stayed loyal.

My favorite Indian place in Oakland. Everything is delicious. We love their appetizers – the potato patty one is so good. I wish I had more space in my tummy for more of their food.
