    Excellent small restaurant right in the heart of downtown. We had a craving for butter chicken & naans Food was excellent! Copious quantity. Service was excellent too - very friendly, courteous & prompt! All in all, a great find! (parking is street, and wasn't a problem on a weekday). We will be back!

    First time eating here ( had to go once before ) and it was just as delicious as before . Ambiance is pleasant , colorful with fun background music. Parking can be rough but a short walk is usually doable . Food came fast and fresh . Would reccomend !

    I havent dined out for indian food before, so this was my first experience. Upon coming here, there are some parking spots available behind the restaurant. The restaurant is small, and a little dark. Service was standard and they checked up on us twice. The menu can be overwhelming, but we ended up getting the mango chicken tikka masala, regular chicken tikka masala, butter chicken, leg quaters, chicken biriyani, and bread basket (naan). I wished the entrees came with rice or naan but you need to order that seperately. Food was average, and I liked how they ask for the spice level. I got the mango one with medium spice and it wasn't bad. We all agreed that the mango one tastes better than the regular chicken tikka masala.

    Tonight, the wife liked my mushroom mattar paneer, and I ate her dal making. The mild was too spicy for her, so switcheroo! That worked.

    Been searching for a new fave indian restaurant in the Bay Area and found this little gem! It is a small restaurant in downtown Pleasanton with a small parking lot (fills up quickly so may need street parking). Super cute, cozy and clean inside. As for the food, ordered the Butter Chicken, Chicken Curry, Chicken Biryani, Garlic Naan and Pakora. Everything had great flavor and a great amount of spice. Overall, a very solid experience and is def in the running for my new fav Indian spot!

    We catered from India Garden for our Diwali party. They were great to communicate with and helped set up and deliver the food. Most importantly the food was a crowd pleaser. The spice level was just right for me, but if your guests can't take any spice I would let the restaurant know to adjust accordingly.

    Donna D.

    Staff was wonderful and very attentive. Food was great - I loved all of the naan options they had and the chicken tikka masala was solid. The chili chicken was good and flavorful. I will definitely be frequenting this place! I must say, it was a tad more expensive but worth it.

    Excellent food! All of the flavors were rich. Some of the best Indian in the area. The only downside is the price.

    Our iniBurger Review…read more We came hungry and definitely didn't leave disappointed. MexiCali Burger Packed with flavor. The pepper jack cheese, jalapeños, and sauce gave it a nice kick without being overwhelming. If you like a little heat with your burger, this is the one to order. Falafel Burger As someone who doesn't always gravitate toward beef, I was excited to try this one. The falafel had a great texture, the toppings were fresh, and it felt like a complete meal rather than an afterthought vegetarian option. Kids Cheeseburger Meal Honestly one of the best values on the menu. Wally approved. The burger was a great size for kids, and pairing it with onion rings made it feel like a meal he'd actually get excited about. Sweet Potato Fries Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and seasoned just right. These disappeared quickly. Onion Rings Crunchy coating, sweet onion center, and cooked perfectly. Definitely worth adding to your order. Loaded Spicy Garlic Fries These stole the show. Crispy fries loaded with flavor and just enough spice to keep you reaching for another bite. If you're sharing, order one for the table. If you're not sharing, order one for yourself. Mac & Cheese Bites Golden, crispy, cheesy comfort food. These were a hit with both kids and adults. Habanero Mango Wings Mike's favorite item of the night. The perfect balance of sweet and heat. The mango brought a touch of sweetness while the habanero delivered just enough kick to keep things interesting. These were sticky, flavorful, and impossible to stop eating. Fried Cheesecake A fun surprise. Warm, creamy cheesecake inside with a crispy exterior. It's rich enough to split, but you might not want to. Strawberry & Chocolate Milkshakes Thick, creamy, and made for burger night. The strawberry was refreshing and sweet, while the chocolate was rich and classic. A special shout-out to Farrah. You were an absolute delight. Your hospitality was world-class and made our experience even more memorable. Exceptional service is hard to find, and you made us feel genuinely welcomed from the moment we walked in. We can't wait to come back and work our way through more of the menu. Overall, what stood out most was the variety. Whether you're craving a classic burger, something spicy, a vegetarian option, loaded fries, or a sweet treat, there's truly something for everyone.

    Shalimar, Dublin: 2026 July 12 (5 of 5)…read more Let's Meet for Lunch When a handful of friends reunite, time seems to disappear. This get-together is at Shalimar Restaurant in Dublin. Shalimar serves authentic Pakistani and Indian food. The atmosphere here is casual and unassuming. It's an open eatery with community tables and chairs on both sides of the tables. There are also booths and benches for those who need some privacy. This canteen-style eatery focuses on food. You order and pay at the counter. They get your name, and your order is served fresh and piping hot. Everyone ordered something different: Tandoori Chicken, Fresh Baked Naan, Goat Biryani, Fish, Okra, Goat Karahi, Biryani Rice, and several other dishes. The dishes were placed in the middle of the long table and we all got to taste everyone's food. Every dish was flavourful and the seasoning on each dish was on-point. Their naan is baked daily - and you can taste the freshness of the bread. The vibe was strong because it's been an absolute age since we last met up. All nine of us picked up where we left off. As we filled our plates with delicious eats, conversation flowed while we joked and ate. The short reunion came to an end when Shalimar breaks for two hours before it opens again for dinner. We bade goodbye as we went our separate ways. Until the next chapter...

    Went Monday evening to Shalimar, not having any particular expectations. The food was totally a 5/5…read morethis visit! Everything was sizzling hot, very fresh, and really delicious! I recommend the leg and thigh chicken tikka (we ordered 2) the amazingly fresh and fabulous naan (we ordered 2), and the spinach with potatoes and fenugreek. Then take a side of raw onions and the yogurt mint chutney (complementary in the refrigerator for guests to help themselves). Add a cup of complementary hot chai (help yourself). Lovely relaxed dinner for two in under $35! Just fyi: this is a super casual, hole in the wall. But if you're in for an authentic experience, and really care about well prepared food, this is your place. Ignore the decor and enjoy the food! It's self service. Polite, matter of fact service. Go up to the counter and order, and your food is brought to your table.
