The gentlemen helping were kind and helpful -- Upon entering, we asked to dine in and were invited to a table by the TVs. The waiter took our orders and helped with recommendations, quick to bring extra items we requested, and even brought out my water bottle that I forgot at the end of dinner. Extremely kind, inviting and created a welcoming ambiance and experience. The butter chicken and goat curry were fire but the best dish was... The lamb biryani. 40% of the dish was of lamb. Very rare for a restaurant to provide such a big proportion of meat to carb ratio. The garlic naan was perfect, tasted fresh and steamed as I pulled it apart. Other places I've been to recently, I drank so much water due to the saltiness but not here. Overall, amazing experience and I want to come back to try the chicken tikka noodles.

I have walked by this plaza many times, and every single time, I was met with an incredible,…read morehard-to-miss fragrance coming from Naga's Kitchen. I always told myself that if a place smells this good, the food had to be amazing too. I am so glad I finally tried it, because the food wasn't just good, it was great! I will definitely be coming back. Here is a breakdown of everything we ordered during our visit: Appetizers Chicken Lollipop (Dry): Flavorful, well-cooked, and wonderfully moist. Best of all, it had more meat and less batter than most other places, paired with a delicious dipping sauce. It has a slight, pleasant heat without burning your tongue, which is great for focusing on pure flavor. Naga's Special Apollo Fish: This was the absolute standout of the meal! It was packed with incredible flavor, featuring a fantastic mix of yogurt, curry leaves, and green chillies that hit the perfect balance of tangy, cool, and spicy. Main Entrée & Breads Butter Chicken: A wonderful, harmonious blend of sweetness and spice, leaning slightly on the sweeter side. It paired like a dream with our garlic naan. (Tip: If you prefer more heat, you can always check with the staff about customization!) Garlic Naan: Soft, perfectly cooked, and completely free of that dreaded rubbery texture. It had a generous amount of garlic, a slight crunch, and was the ideal vehicle for the butter chicken. Drinks Fresh Lime Soda (Sweet): Refreshing and crisp. You can choose between salty or sweet, and we went with sweet. Pro-tip: Make sure to stir it thoroughly before drinking, as the sweetness settles at the bottom! Service, Ambience & Practical Details Service & Ambience: There are plenty of tables, though it can get busy during peak hours. Even when crowded, the staff is exceptionally quick, attentive, and prompt with their service. Parking: The complex has plenty of parking spots, though it can get challenging on busy days, and some spots are a bit narrow. Keep in mind that the spots directly in front of the restaurant are mostly 10 to 30 minute parking zones, so it is best to park a little further back in the lot. Final Fun Note: Because the restaurant has such a wonderfully strong food aroma, be prepared to leave smelling deliciously like your meal! It is a small price to pay for such fantastic food and service. Highly recommended!

They have a bright and airy space, although the fake plants at the entrance make you wonder if this really is an upscale place. They also have an outdoor patio where we saw a group dining with one of their furry friends. For appetizers, we ordered the Kerala chicken fry - well seasoned and crispy with a delicious dipping sauce. For the entrees, we got a potlam goat biryani - a delicious biryani wrapped in a banana leaf served table side. We also got the Fish Pollichathu, a fish grilled with a tomato based topping that was wrapped in a banana leaf and served with a tapioca mash and rice. All the dishes were delicious. The portions are generous and we ended up with leftovers to take back home. We also received a complimentary gulab jamun creme brulee since I was part of their mailing list and a pistachio tiramisu to celebrate our special occasion. A truly wonderful experience that made our evening special. We will look forward to returning to sample more of their offerings.

There was a great variety, and it was a nice way to experience the flavors and spirit of Onam. Service was quick , and despite not having a reservation, they were able to accommodate us. The ambiance is very pleasant too. That said, we enjoyed our meal but my folks found most of the dishes to be spicy which may not suit everyone--especially young kids. We asked for yogurt which the restaurant provided without hesitation. My toddler found almost everything too spicy, but happily enjoyed the sweets, banana chips, payasam, which was definitely a highlight! At around $60 per person, it is on the pricier side for a vegetarian meal, but for a special treat and to celebrate Onam, it may be worth experiencing. Overall, a festive and generous spread, though we would have preferred a little more balance in the spice level.

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.

Update: Dined in a week later for lunch and tried the tandoori chicken and bagara baingan. Excellent!

The filter coffee was another highlight; it's brewed fresh and poured right in front of you, which is not only entertaining to watch but you can taste the difference.

The food is wonderful, the restaurant itself is very clean and well-maintained, and the atmosphere was great - friendly, polite crowd and attentive service. Highly recommend if you love authentic South Indian food.

Haven't had an Indian buffet since before the pandemic and saw this place recommended online…read more Lunch buffet is $16 (and the tip screen options range from 18% - 35%) and includes chai and naan. I was a bit concerned when I showed up at 1 o'clock and only two people were in there, but I decided to roll the dice. And then noticed that when a few other customers came in, none of them seemed like they had been here before because they asked a lot of questions about the buffet set up and even what the dishes were, so I don't think they were very familiar with Indian cuisine. I added a little bit of everything to my plate just to taste it. I like that there were a few dishes that you generally don't see on buffets such as mutton biryani, fish pakora, egg curry, etc.. but I found the standards like tandoori chicken, aloo gobi, and chicken tikka masala not done too well. Not sure if I just put the wrong things on my plate, but I think I had pretty much two tablespoons of everything except for dal on there. I didn't finish my plate and I didn't go back for seconds. I think the food is more like 2.5 stars, i'm riounding up for prompt service and a clean environment.

DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE…read more We ordered Masala Dosa and Mini Idly in the early afternoon, and the food tasted old and stale.

I'm currently consulting a doctor, and if food poisoning is confirmed, I will be reporting this to the health department.
