TL;DR: ...and STILL hands-down best Indian food I've had in SD Got the chicken dinner for two and wasn't disappointed All the dishes were delicious but more than the food was the friendliness of the owners - felt like walking into a home instead of a restaurant Coming back anytime I'm in the area :) Cheers, Punjabi Tandoor!

The food was delicious! The staff is amazing! The outside setting was so nice and cool for the day. We loved all the plants. Make sure to get a wide range of food so you can try a few!!

In my opinion this is the best place to go for value, authenticity and taste when you're craving Indian. You can't beat their combos which for around $13-15 will give you rice, naan, raita or kheer, and 1-2 different types of curries. The variety is outstanding and they have something for every taste and enjoyment. I strongly recommend their paneers and especially their lamb rogan Josh. The family that work here are great, friendly and provide fantastic service. This is a place that's probably more for take out but you'll find a comfortable seat inside or out if you want to eat here. It might be out of the way but it's worth the drive. Definitely worth visiting and filling up on some authentic and delicious curries.

Reading Claudia P's review made me realize how much I miss this place so decided to go here for dinner tonight. I agree with Claudia, this is some of the best Indian food I've had in the US and I've spent extensive time in India. It's a family operated business and the staff is super friendly. This is off the beaten path in an industrial complex that might get overlooked. It gets incredibly busy for lunch. There is limited seating and a cute outdoor patio area. The food is flavorful and delicious. The portions are huge and I usually have plenty of leftovers. Love it here!

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST INDIAN FOOD IN SAN DIEGO!!!! I found this hole in the wall 10 years ago and it's one of my favorites. I've been to their Sorrento Valley location and it's good too. This location is my go to. I've ordered everything and it's all so good. I recommend their mushroom dish with the tamarind and green spicy green sauce with the garlic nann. I love this place!!! A must try and you'll love it too!!

The menu! The food was still amazing as always! The people here are very welcoming and kind. The ambience feels nice like at home.

I've been coming here for many years and it's always been one of my favorite local places. It's a hole in the wall restaurant located in a business center, with a patio and seats with umbrellas outside. I usually get one of the lunch or dinner combos which includes 1 chicken and 1 vegetable curry, rice, and naan. My favorites are the Chicken Makhani and Mushroom Masala curries. The naan is also very delicious. I also get the Saag Paneer curry but it can be a little watery sometimes (as other people have mentioned, the quality isn't always consistent). I've also noticed the spice level of the curries can vary wildly, sometimes the spiciness is mild and other times it's extremely spicy. Their portions are usually quite generous, though they seem to have shrunk slightly after the pandemic. The staff/owners are not the friendliest, but they are quick and efficient (I've also ordered takeout from here many times). I will definitely be coming back here regularly in the future!

Located in the business center. Private parking lot. Ample seating inside and outside. Everything we ordered was good. At first I got a 3 item combo plate. Comes with rice and naan bread to share with my husband. And then my husband decided to get his own combo plate because it was so good lol Chicken Tikka masala Chef's choice Lamb dish Veggie samosa- they give u two sauces. I ended up combining the two. Would def come here again. They have fountain drinks and can beverages. I forgot to take photos. Next timed will def come here again.
