I ordered while hungry, so I ordered a samosa, a chicken vindaloo plate, and an extra garlic naan. Everything is so good! Everything taste fresh and the rice is perfect. I'm also glad I have extra naan. Pick up was super fast and easy. I'm afraid that I will be here at least once a week because it's right by my house. So grateful to have fast, delicious and nutritious food so close. You have to eat here!! New gem of Watsonville. Also, I felt like the portions were great read more

Great food, great customer service! Affordable, and fast! Staff was incredibly friendly!

So happy to have a casual Indian food place in town!! Smooth easy ordering, well set up with a brightly lit sign and a doorbell. It's be hind the shopping center, so you gotta find it, but there were good directions in all their literature. Food was terrific!!! Chicken tika was delicious, and SUPER nice to get a mix of entree and sides as a meal!!!! I really liked that I could get a whole meal for one without needing to order 3 entrees. It was also The most perfectly crispy fried samosa I've ever had. Perfect! Naan was good and plentiful, 5 stars overall! Loved it, keep up the good work!! read more

I ordered takeout online and picked it up at the location. There was plenty of parking in the East Lake Village Shopping Center parking lot. I walked down the alleyway, and as soon as I turned the corner, I saw the red pickup stand. I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala Rice Bowl, Garlic Naan Bread, Samosas, a Mango Lassi, and the Lemon Rose drink. Everything was really good! The chutneys were also really good with the samosas. They even gave us a free Lemon Rose drink, which was a nice plus :) We will definitely return. read more

Overall, solid experience! My girlfriend and I got the chicken masala & Lamb w/ rice bowls. The lamp was cooked perfectly, it was super tender and soft when I bit into it. My girlfriend also got a samosa which she really enjoyed (comes with a dip/sauce). We got a garlic naan as well which we liked, however, we wish the garlic had a stronger taste to it. Lastly. I got a rose drink that was pretty sweet and my girlfriend got the mango lassi which was thick and creamy. I would give it a 5/5 if you could sit down and eat but it's only takeout (sadly). Otherwise, it's a solid 4.7/5 for me! Solid service! The guy even threw in a free drink since it was our first time there. read more

So stoked to have fresh, delicious, authentic Indian food here in Watsonville!! I ordered over the phone and had all my questions answered patiently and politely. I'll order through their website next time, but calling allowed me to order our favorites AND cover our family's allergies. 90% of our order was dairy-free, and the majority of that was also vegan. Gluten-free options are also available if that's your thing. For reference: - Chicken vindaloo is dairy-free. - Samosas, spinach saag, and chickpea masala are all vegan. - Naan is vegan IF you skip the ghee (clarified butter). - Veggie korma has cream and is NOT vegan or dairy-free, but was my absolute favorite item today. Delivery was fast and I was glad I wasn't dealing with a delivery service that takes a huge cut from small businesses (like Dash that takes 20%). The delivery person was sweet and we had a great convo about how they are the folks everyone enjoys at our local farmers markets and they want us to be able to enjoy their food at home, too. But can't recommend enough. We will be ordering again VERY soon!! read more

I love this place. The food is delicious and the family/staff are always lovely. My favorite is the vindaloo chicken, it's amazing. It had the perfect mix of spice and flavor, not too spicy. The samosas are incredible and the best naan I've ever had. Excited to have this again and try different dishes! read more

We just tried for the first time and will be back. All food is to go. We live nearby and thought we would take a walk over and try the new place. It was absolutely delicious!! I got the chicken and my guy got the lamb. We added the little deep fried pastry filled with potatoes and herbs and the garlic naan. Go check it out. We will be regularly visiting this place. read more

We were visiting garden centers, looking for fruit trees for spring time. And stumbled upon this little alleyway restaurant. What a gem! Super friendly. Affordable! Generous portions and delicious. You can take it to go, but we ate it at the tables at the staff of life grocery store in the front of the mall. read more

The food is delicious! Always consistent in taste and spices. I recommend everything!

Awesome Chai and Samosa will definitely rate 10/10 for both.Don't miss out on this place. There is no dinning arrangements. Only takeout.

This was my first time trying India Gourmet, and even through a DoorDash order the food arrived fresh, flavorful, and perfectly spiced. The portions were generous, and every dish tasted authentic and well-prepared. Based on this experience, I'll definitely be going back for in-person dining. Highly recommend! read more

I had India Gourmet for lunch today....It was so good. The Samosas are Outstanding and also had free delivery. Highly recommend!!!

Overall a pretty good experience. I ordered pick up and good thing I looked at the yelp images that show were it is. You have to drive through a small driveway, next to Dollar Saver, and through the back alley. They have a small tent that helps you know where to stop. I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala Rice Bowl, Garlic Naan and the Samosa. Chicken Tikka Masala Rice Bowl: Solid flavor and decent amount of chicken. I just wish there was a smidge more Tikka Masala and a tiny bit less rice, so that I could dip my naan in. Garlic Naan: Absolutely humongous and delicious. Samosa: Comes with two sauces. I definitely liked the brown sauce with the samosa but the green sauce (maybe Saag) was a great pairing with the garlic naan. Definitely order a least two items so you can mix and blend flavors, but overall a pretty good experience of food and service. No real ambiance because it's just a kitchen with take out. read more

I had the chicken tikka masala and samosa, and they where so good. I had my family try it and they also really enjoyed it. The staff were very friendly and approachable. Go and support!!! read more

Good flavor but wrap literally only had two small pieces of chicken- was just rice and bread.

The food from India Gourmet is very delicious. I've ordered from the restaurant a couple of times and have been very happy with my meals. The rice, the curry sauce, and Garlic Naan are all flavorful and fresh. I am in love with the lemon rose water. The people are very gracious and my deliveries have been fast. It's great having an Indian restaurant in town. I definitely recommend it. read more

Delicious Indian food to go at reasonably prices. I especially enjoyed the vegetable korma because of the mild spiciness. The lemon rose water. is really good too. Everything is made fresh to order. I highly recommend India Gourmet. read more

Got a craving for Indian food, already had a pot of rice on the stove. Ordered 2 curries plus a Samosa saat. I especially like the smoked eggplant. There's enough for a couple of meals. Looking forward to trying more things. We live nearby. After smelling the food cooking for years, great to finally be able to taste it at home and not just hope we'll go to the right street fair. Web site needs improvement, couldn't select which curries I wanted, but phone works fine, ready in 10 min! read more

Very delicious food! The service is great, very friendly. I would say that it was a bit difficult to find the place as it's behind the East Lake Shopping center. I believe it's only for pick up as well as there's no seating. I would definitely order for pick up again! read more

Amazing food!! The service was so great as well, the delivery driver showed up super fast, and was very polite. The curry combo plate was AMAZING, and the garlic naan did not miss. 100% will be ordering again. read more

First time ordering from here and the food was great. Ordered a vindaloo and masala chicken rice bowls, garlic naan, samosas and a mango lassi. They gave us a complimentary rose and lemon drink that was amazing! The only thing I wished for was the vindaloo to be more spicy. Very excited that Watsonville finally has an Indian restaurant! read more

Really yummy food, and super friendly staff! The place was a little hard to find (you have to walk around behind Sushi Qu to the back parking lot/alley area), but the samosas and the chicken vindaloo are worth tracking this place down. It's to-go only, but the portions are generous for the cheap price, and all the food was yummy. They also gave us complimentary drinks! So happy to finally have Indian food in Watsonville. read more

Wow! India Gourmet May have a simple menu, but what they offer is out-of-this-world delicious and has definitely filled an important culinary niche that Watsonville has needed for a while. They also offer free, friendly delivery in town, a huge plus! Their family restaurant has been a wonderful addition to our community since their recent opening. read more

Just brought my food home from India Gourmet and I am loving it! I ordered the chicken tikka masala plate with the garbanzo beans and the creamed spinach. And 2 samosas. Everything was so delicious and the young man gave us a free naan bread and rose water on the house. The rose water was so yummy and the naan bread made perfectly. I will definitely be eating here. Very happy right now!!!! read more
