I stopped in SF to have dinner with some friends I haven't seen in a while. They gave me a few…read moreoptions for places that were within walking distance. I thought a place called Naan and Pizza was worth a try! And they JUST opened a month ago so we wanted to give them some business. My friends had Door Dashed a pizza but the delivery menu was much more limited so they were excited to go try it out in person. The restaurant is clean and decorated in a way that doesn't really point to the type of food they serve. But the tables were all laid out nicely. There are a TON of choices on the menu that are Indian-food focused. There were a variety of appetizers, Tandoori specials, chicken, lamb, vegetarian, seafood, biryani and appetizers. The pizza menu offered the classics (Hawaiian, garlic chicken), but also offered Tandoori chicken and Desi BBQ chicken. There were so many options it was a little overwhelming. We settled on the Goat Cheese Naan, Aloo Tikki Chat, Tandoori Chicken plate and Coconut Curry Chicken. EVERYTHING was delicious!! The naan was flavorful and came with a yummy dipping sauce. The Aloo Tikki Chat was something I've never eaten but it was delicious. The Tandoori chicken was a little dry for my liking. I took a big bite and it required some water to help me get it down. There wasn't a dipping sauce for it. The Coconut Curry Chicken was amazing. The chicken in that dish fell apart - it was so tender. And the rice that came with it was fluffy. I appreciated that the server came out and asked for the level of spice for the curry (my dish). I told him I could take some kick, but wanted to still be able to taste the food. There wasn't much spice to it, but that was okay, too, We were impressed overall. The portion sizes were great for the price. Everything is getting so expensive nowadays! You should definitely give this restaurant a try! They were empty when we came in on a Saturday night at 7 and we saw 2 to-go orders come through. They're just starting out so spread the word so that they get a genuine opportunity to make it!!

I don't crave pizza often but I was craving both Indian food and pizza in the same evening. So I…read morefound this place! And loved it. I got half Butter Chicken and half Palak Chicken on my pizza and it was delicious. Also, something about their crust was so good. It was chewy but it a good way and the crust wasn't overbearing. If I had any feedback though, I wish the flavors were more intense. I really wanted to be hit with the Indian flavors. But I'm assuming the toppings that they use are also what they serve as à la carte which I think the flavors get diluted when added with bread, cheese, and a bunch of other toppings. Also, I wish it was spicier! I got raita (yogurt sauce) on the side. I think all Indian Pizza places should serve raita on the side of their pizzas. I'll be coming back and trying their other pizzas.

Our total came out to around $230 including tax and tip, which felt reasonable for the amount of food we ordered. The restaurant was pretty busy during dinner, but we were seated after about a 20 minute wait, which wasn't bad at all. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating. We ordered the Goat Cheese Naan, Roti Calamari, Chicken Tikka Masala, Tandoori Game Hen, Kale Fritters, and Gosht Biryani. My favorite dish was actually the Kale Fritters, which surprised me since I usually gravitate toward meat dishes. They were perfectly crispy, and the sauce had a great balance of sweet and savory flavors.My least favorite was the Tandoori Game Hen--it had a lot of bones and was a bit difficult to eat. Overall, I really enjoyed the meal and the variety of dishes we tried.

The gentleman took our order right away at the counter. We ordered Karachi chicken, 1 quarter leg of tandoori chicken, Saag Paneer, garlic butter Naan and basmati rice. As always the Karahi chicken is bursting with flavors. The spices were spot on. I love the cardamom seeds, ginger, tomato sauce, turmeric, I mean I can go on, lol. All these spices does wonder to your health. The tandoori chicken was moist, very tasty with lots of umami flavors. The Saag paneer is one of our favorite and goes well with all the dishes. It actually helps calm the spiciness on the Karahi chicken. It is well made and we enjoyed every bit of it. The Garlic butter naan was crunchy and savory and great with the Karahi chicken sauce and the paneer. We almost ate everything. Only had a little Karahi chicken left and Naan. Yes, we were very full!!! Love that feeling, lol. It's always a delight coming here. My hubby and I are always satisfied. We have been coming here for a while now and the flavors and consistency of the food is always spot on. Until next time, I look forward to our next Pakwan meal!!!

It felt like eating a savory rice crispy cereal, but not in a bad way :P -Garlic Naan - pretty decent but nothing special -Jalebi - I was really excited to try this dessert. I looooved the texture (crunchy outside, with a gooey inside) but the actual flavor was not my favorite. To me, it tasted very similar to chlorinated water, and it was hard to get past that.. There was a different jalebi with a dipping sauce, and I wonder if that would have been better. They were out of it when we went, but I would try it again with that. Overall a really great restaurant, and definitely a place to try out if you're wanting a more unique Indian dining experience!

The basmati rice was good, though it could use a touch more seasoning (2.5/5). The complimentary chai tea was a lovely finishing touch -- the perfect drink after such a satisfying meal (4/5). The vegetarian pakoras were my favorite. Crispy and flavorful! The ambiance was relaxed and inviting, with an interesting mix of aesthetics and a subtle sporty vibe.

Saag paneer was not as flavorful as I would've liked. Did not go for seconds on this, but I did go for seconds (and thirds) on the goat and chicken. The green chutney was spicy and fresh and so perfect actually!! Dipped naan and samosa in it. The naan was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside; nice and buttered up too! We asked for three orders (heh), came out piping hot. Yum!!! The fish pakora was okay, had to dip in chutney sauce to eat it. The samosas were a little bit too oily and kind of had an oily aftertaste to me? In general, the food here is not as spicy or flavorful as I would've liked it to be. Parking on the main street can be a bit difficult, but we found parking easily on an adjacent street (Portola I think?). Very clean restaurant in a nice part of the city. While we're on ambiance/space, the bathroom was like average clean lol, what you'd expect at any run-of-the-mill place. Okay wait - here's the kicker.
