I needed a few things and this place was close to where I was already shopping in Sunnyvale. It is…read morea South Asian grocery store. Went in for some vegetables, the stock is very limited and they had no bags to put the produce in and no one around to help. Went up to the counter to pay and there was no one there. Called for someone and a woman peeked out of the kitchen and went right back in! She came back a few minutes later and was having a conversation over the phone. She started ringing me up and then right in the middle of doing so, she walked away! Didn't come back for a few more minutes. Rang me up but they charge for using anything other than cash. Produce was very limited, as well as the other packaged items. It is a very small place. They also have a kitchen but but it was not busy on a weekday evening. There are plenty of other Indian stores withing a few minutes driving distance and I will not be back here.

Absolutely delicious! I ordered delivery, so I unfortunately don't have anything to share about the…read moreservice or ambience. I will, however, say that their samosa chaat and vegetable chow mein were delightful! I'm a sucker for Indo-Chinese food, so when I saw chow mein on the menu, I of course had to get some, and man was I glad that I did! The noodles were perfectly thin, the vegetables were grilled to perfection, and the dish had a great variety of textures. The samosa chaat was sensational and very unique. I loved the layering of flavors and textures and the toppings. 10/10 would recommend!

This is a small, no-frills Kolkata cuisine restaurant in Milpitas, and the ambience is pretty…read morebasic. It's a fully self-serve setup--you order and pay at the counter, pick up paper plates, plastic cutlery (which I'm personally not a fan of), and napkins from the front, and once you're done eating, you're expected to clear your table as well. Given all of this, the expectation of tipping feels a bit confusing. That said, we came here for the food--and it truly delivered. My husband is Bengali and was craving authentic Bengali food, so we decided to try this place over the weekend, and we absolutely loved it. We started with the mutton (goat) cutlet and Mughlai paratha. The mutton cutlet was adequately stuffed, fried crispy to perfection, and tasted really good. The Mughlai paratha by itself was just okay, but when paired with the aloo tarkari (potato curry) it became an instant hit. For the main course, we ordered chicken chow mein and Katla fish curry with white rice, and both dishes truly transported us straight to Kolkata. The flavors were incredibly authentic, homely, and comforting--exactly the kind of food you crave when you miss home. I really wanted to try rasgulla, but I was so full that I had to skip it this time. Definitely going back to try more items from the menu--purely for the food. If you're looking for authentic Kolkata flavors and can overlook the basic setup, this place is absolutely worth a visit.

Okay so... I know a lot of you have seen my biryani picture. I know this is a small business and…read moreI'm rating the stars because the service was friendly and there seems to be fresh meat. However, I referenced photos from Yelp and Google Maps before coming and I was so excited to try the chicken biryani. I called in ahead and the entire process took 25 minutes. It was... uh... A bunch of lightly seasoned rice and some meat off the bone... I didn't check before I left the store, but I had a conversation with the cashier and she noticed I was buying something spicy. She warned me that the biryani wasn't spicy, to which I replied I knew. I don't know what was wrong with it that day or if it was supposed to be like this? Photos for reference.

I am embarrassed to admit that after working in DTFremont (near gov't center) for over 5 years, I…read morehave only recently been aware of this amazing restaurant, AND that I could walk to Shalimar from the office in less than 10 mins! So embarrassing! Lot's of lost time to make up here and, to that end, I have been coming for lunch. I have more than a few favorite items but still so many choices and at very good prices. I love the grilled chicken legs - they look like Indian tandoori chicken but tastes better. They also have other Northern Indian/Pakistan favs like lamb (or mutton) curry, lamb brain and so on, but the one thing I keep coming back for are the chicken legs. The naan here is much thicker and fuller than other places so order saucy items soak up the gravy with the thicker naan. This is a self-serve establishment, so diners need to get what they need - plates, utensils, napkins etc. Be sure to get their bottomless chai and the fresh sliced onion, chili peppers and flavor them with the fresh lemon juice and red pepper. You also don't have to pay for tips unless you want to. Lunch time can get busy but the food does not take long from order to table. According to Google, Shalimar has a location in Dublin and in the Loins on Jones in SF.

Vegan Gobi starter (5/5): Incredibly tasty! 2. Avocado Bhel (3/5): Meh 3. Samosas (4/5): Normal for me but everyone non-indian absolutely loved it. 4. Vegan Bhindi (5/5): their best vegan option! 5. Vegan Chole pindi (4/5): their second best vegan option and has protein! 6. Vegan daal (3/5): it's meh, but a good table sharing option. 7. Mango mojito (3/5 as is, 5/5 WITHOUT ADDED SUGAR) - despite the server requesting me to not get it without sugar, I defied the odds and got the sugarless one. And that was yummy. The sugary one is just too much sugar I'll increase the rating if they can make the soya chaap tandoori and curry vegan if it's a large party I suggest you order everything at once, as our dinner turned out to be a 4 hour event Vegan / Veg / Vegetarian review
