Sanskrit – new age indian, opened in January 2019, after a year of careful planning, research and development. Our goal was to bring a new kind of dining experience to the Sacramento region. We wanted to show case the rich cultural heritage that India has and bring in a modern twist to the culinary traditions. Our chefs come from different parts of the country and have worked together to create this unique menu. The seasonal menu (North Indian and South Indian) will introduce fresh ingredients coupled with the very best of California produce.

Reviews
I dined here a few years ago and clearly remember the food being flavorful, savory, and spicy with proper balance. Unfortunately, this visit was a total waste.
We ordered bhel puri, which was shockingly bland. This dish is known for its sourness, sweetness, and tanginess — but I couldn’t taste any of that. It was, without exaggeration, the worst bhel puri I’ve ever had. It lacked every flavor that makes Indian street food enjoyable. I could genuinely make a better version at home.
Next was the baingan bharta, which again was very bland. It felt like plain mashed eggplant with a light tadka — all the essential spices were missing. Baingan bharta is supposed to have a smoky, spicy, and slightly tangy flavor profile, but none of that was present.
We also ordered veg biryani, which was not terrible, but not impressive either. I’d rate it about 2.5/5.
Overall, it feels like the restaurant has changed chefs, and the new one does not know how to properly use spices, tomatoes, yogurt, or build the layers of flavor that define Indian cuisine. The “Indian magic” was completely missing.
I’m highly disappointed, will not be returning, and feel like I wasted my money.
Talking about food, tandoori chicken stands out. Mango chilli lemonade was a new taste bursted in.
I wish biryani could have more flavoured with rice.
Got to try the non veg thali and wrap recently with my friends. Loved it. Curries could be spicier.
Located in a popular shopping complex, Sanskrit is easy to find with ample parking. The atmosphere is welcoming, though the interiors could be a bit brighter to feel more inviting, and the access to the restrooms could be decluttered to improve the overall flow. There were some stored inventories that seemed out of place and could be a bit of a hazard and an eyesore, but this didn’t overshadow the quality of the food or the service.
Overall, Sanskrit is definitely one of the best Indian restaurants around, offering both traditional and fusion on Indian dishes. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a flavorful and enjoyable meal
