I'm surprised I haven't helped India Cafe as it's our go to Indian restaurant in Manteca…read more The portions are good and the price is great, $40 for a non vegetarian combo for two for dinner is a great find. And unlike buffets where I overeat, instead I can enjoy my meal and company without feeling compelled to give something else a try - or is that just me? Plus there is plenty to take home leftovers. Between the Combo for 2 and the Thali for 1, I like the thali for one better as it comes with two small portions of curry and two pieces of grilled chicken. It was better when you could choose your curry options, but now the combo comes with butter chicken and tikka masala chicken. Their butter chicken is good but the Hubbs and I prefer their Khadali Chicken best.

Definitely a different chef from the last time. I would still recommend the butter chicken and saag paneer - solid dishes. Dishes I would be ok with- Pani Puri Mango Lassi - the version they have here is a bit on the thinner side than we're used to Lamb Biryani - The biryani is a little different than we're used to - some tomato in here? Assorted Naan - flavor was ok but they were on the soft side - might have needed some more time in the oven Basil Cream - garlic, basil, cream - this was tasty, but seemed like it was a bit out of place with the other food. Also, I wouldn't recommend the shrimp as they didn't hold up well in the sauce (tiny and a little overcooked) Dishes that weren't my favorite- Bollywood Wings - for a deep fried wing, these have no texture (like a microwaved wing). Flavor is pretty good - like a sweet and sour sauce. Achari Chicken - unfortunately, lots of issues with this dish. It presents nicely as chicken and veggies on a sizzling plate. However, they first start with fully cooked chicken breast which goes onto the hot plate. Maybe if it was parcooked or they used dark meat, it might have survived, but the chicken was bone dry. Other issue was the veggies at the bottom were completely burned and inedible. Overall, the restaurant is still a pretty interesting place to visit due to their abundance in decor. The food didn't hit the spot this time, but we'd be willing to try it again.

I hate to say it, but this was honestly the worst Indian food experience I've had--and being…read moreIndian, that says a lot. Our appetizer, pav bhaji, didn't even come out until after the meal. When it finally arrived, the bhaji was bizarre--it was a dry ball, almost like a pakora, instead of the moist, buttery potato dish it's supposed to be. The dal makhani was also dry and clearly seemed like it had been cooked days earlier and just reheated. The butter chicken was disappointing too; the pieces had almost as much cartilage as actual meat. Service was mediocre. After taking our order, the menus just sat on our table until we asked for them to be removed because we needed the space for our food. A water jug was dropped on the table for self-service even though the restaurant was nearly empty on a Sunday afternoon and there were two servers working. On top of that, the restaurant itself was very warm, which made eating hot Indian food really uncomfortable. We honestly couldn't wait to leave and didn't even bother taking our leftovers. With so many other good options in town, I wouldn't come back. From top to bottom, this place needs serious improvement.

First time visiting and to be honest I don't know they had a sit down Indian restaurant in this Bass Pro shop anchored shopping center. It's called a bistro. Not much Indian decor but their food makes up for that. I loved the fish salmon pakoras (fried fritters) and Gobi Manchurian. They have several tv sets above the bar also. Service is friendly and attentive. It's easy to miss this spot if you drive by but we walked around and ran into it basically. Across the small street is Curry Pizza house if you're craving Indian desi style pizza . This place has all the usual suspects of Indian dishes, very clean and next time I'm not late to a movie I will sit down and eat with no rush and enjoy it a little bit more. Give them a try! 5/5

When we flagged it with our server, they offered to remake the dish -- but since nearly everything we ordered was oversalted, we didn't have confidence a remake would come out any different, so we declined. More concerning: my vegetarian friend's dal makhani had a distinct fish smell, which raises real cross-contamination concerns for anyone with dietary restrictions or allergies. Based on this visit, I'd recommend caution, especially if you're vegetarian or have food allergies.

Gobi, Manchurian was very well-made as well. As an avid Chinese and Indian food lover, it was a perfect combination of sweet spicy and salty. I would order this again. We also ordered the chai, which was wonderfully spiced however it was already sweetened. The mango last has a lot of creamy yogurt, and it was a great combination with the well spiced foods. The price was really great as well. And then how much a lady was very kind and gave us a free sample of her dessert.
