Thanks to fellow Yelpers for helping me find my new favorite Indian spot…read more Fremont has absolutely no shortage of solid Indian restaurants, but Masala Republic still outshines them. I love their version of butter chicken and the Hyderabad mixed vegetable korma (a dish I always order if I can find it). Garlic naan was also delicious. Will be back to try more of the breads and dishes. I've gotten takeout a few times and when I have more time, will be sure to dine in. Update: Dined in a week later for lunch and tried the tandoori chicken and bagara baingan. Excellent!

Very disappointing. I ordered the lamb shank biryani, and the lamb was so dry and tough that it had…read morethe consistency of jerky instead of tender, slow-cooked lamb shank. The biggest surprise was the raita. It was warm, almost hot, and I was told it had been defrosted. Raita is supposed to be cool and refreshing, so this was a major red flag. I've eaten here before, but the quality has clearly gone downhill. The food felt like it was made with old frozen ingredients, and the meal was nowhere near worth the price. If negative stars were possible, I'd give them.

This is the third charminar outlet I tried in the bayarea.

Casual fine dining. Decent seating, good for groups. Decent prices. ***FOOD: we tried a whole bunch of items- *crispy baby corn-3.5/5- very crispy with a sweet and tangy coating indicating liberal vinegar usage. *malai soy chaap: 3.5/5: excessive usage of malai(aka fat). Indulgent and decent enough for a small serving. *vellulli kaaram paneer-3/5- lacked salt. Paneer was softish but felt a bit chewy and hard in places. *black pepper mushroom curry- 4/5- this was my favorite dish that evening. The fragrant curry leaves, earthiness of the mushroom and the black pepper created an intoxicating combination. It was floating in excess oil but was lip smacking delicious. *chilli garlic Naan: 4.5/5: I normally don't rate naan as they are non descript but the version here was wonderful. Thin, not burnt on the downside and paired oh so well with the mushroom curry. *Egg biryani- 3.5/5- this was spicy rather than being flavorful. Since it was made with egg, I didn't mind the spice.

Ambiance is good and very much similar to that of Sunnyvale location. We were a largish group and…read morewere able to spend a lot of time. I'm motivated to write this review specifically for 3 items that I enjoyed a lot. Lasuni Soya Chaap, Mushroom Pepper Fry and Chilli Garlic Naan. All 3 tasted amazing and made the experience all the more better. Lasuni Soya Chaap was flavorful, with generous amounts of garlic Chilli Garlic Naan was so good, that it didn't need another curry on the side. It was a novel idea and was a hit! Mushroom Pepper Fry was spicy but with pepper, the best way to spice things up! Enjoyed it. We also ordered Egg Biryani. It was so disappointing - very bland, both the rice and egg. Chili Paneer was just ok. Seemed like a tad bit extra ketchup Babycorn 65 was crispy and good too. The next time I come here, will max out on the appetizers, they seemed to be doing a great job. Coming back to try their non-vegetarian menu.

Interestingly, although OpenTable showed no reservation availability after our time slot, we noticed several vacant tables about 15-20 minutes after we arrived around 7:20 PM. The restaurant makes a strong first impression with its attractive décor and inviting ambiance. The menu appears to span multiple cuisines, offering a wide range of choices for diners with varied tastes. Despite the size of the restaurant, there were plenty of attentive waitstaff, and service was prompt throughout our visit. Most importantly, the food was flavorful and well prepared. Combined with the pleasant atmosphere and efficient service, it made for an enjoyable dining experience. We would certainly consider returning.

Our late Sunday afternoon lunch was disappointing here…read more Appetizers: Excited about the sizzlers, we tried both veg and non-veg north-Indian versions and found them to be tasteless. The non-veg had a pungent smell from the fish that got to all the other meat in the platter. Wouldn't recommend either. Additionally we tried the sev poori chaat option, was sweet but good. Mains: absolutely have to try the pepper chicken! Delicious!! Don't get the madras chicken and get the chicken korma instead. The gravies were distinct and had a good taste for both pepper and korma. Brownie was a good nostalgic finish to our meal. The ambience is super dense, and probably they have more furniture than they need.

Go hungry for sure to enjoy the food and wait can be 30 to 40 min but worth it. Hopefully they maintain the test and flavor

Nice little Kebab place in Fremont. Limited menu, but each item is authentic, tasty & worth a try…read more The Mutton Sheek kebab is pretty pretty good, Fisk tikka with the chat masala yummy. The chicken(/paneer) tikka in buttery sauce is the only gravy item & goes very well with the Roomali roti. The Chicken Egg roll is wrapped in a Roomali roti, instead of paratha & is sumptuous(better than the popular ones we hv in peninsula(wink wink)). The place was full on a weekday night. Service is decent.

I came inside and like many Indian places, there's usually no happy greeting or a smile. Which is what I was expecting. So I went and ordered chicken tikka masala, naan & Chana masala to go. I waited about 10-15 min and my food came out packed well. The restaurant is small and cozy. There's a few TVs and it was warm inside, but they had a fan running. I got home and the food was piping hot and tasted really good. I'll definitely be back.

Ordered a family pack chicken dum biryani, family pack haleem, and a small goat biryani…read more The Chicken Biryani was a major disappointment of all. It was sweet, flavorless, dry and lacking spice - four out of four people didn't like it. I definitely won't be trying it again. The Mutton Biryani, was flavorful and definitely many times better than chicken biryani. The Haleem was the absolute best item we ordered and a definite hit, making it worth trying again. Be warned about their 'Family Pack'. It's advertised as a family size but serves about two people, not definitely four, which is quite pricey for a 32oz bucket at $40. While the Haleem's quality justified the price as a seasonal item, the 'Family Pack' concept for biryani is poor value. I'd recommend the Haleem and Mutton Biryani, but steer clear of the Chicken Biryani and don't expect the "Family Pack" to feed more than two, 3 at best.

I revisited after six months only to see that the service hasn't improved a bit.Took almost 50ish mins to get our goat & chicken Mandi. Food however is really nice, have tried their Mandi (chicken & goat both), haleem , chicken 65 (takeaway) & pathar ka gosht and apricot crème as well as tea. If you're someone who enjoys Indian flavors, you will enjoy eating here. Ambiance is nice. Cutlery is clean
