    We came here for lunch on a Sunday. Ample parking as it's part of a complex. As we entered we were given menus and told we could sit where we would like. There is indoor and patio seating - we sat in a shaded area on the patio side. A server came to our table and we ordered the malai garlic noodles and nashta plate. The food took about 15 minutes to come but it was worth the wait! The noodles were so creamy and delicious and the shammi kebab was melt in your mouth good! While we were seated no one checked in on us and once we were done eating we waited for someone to come by with the bill / ask for boxes. We weren't in a rush as we were chatting but then we watched someone get their food and subsequently pay during this time. We finally went to the register and paid. We would definitely come back to try other dishes!

    Spice bag or shake bag or whatever it's called before I gobbled it up. Chicken and fries were nice n crispy!
    Leland A.

    I commented on one of their TikToks saying I've been meaning to try it, but just haven't been in the area in Dublin, specifically, so when I was out there this weekend, I finally tried it out and made the drive out. And thank God I did! The place was very nicely decorated and had so much personality inside, not to mention the bathroom was pristine! Customer service was great, the food. I happen to call in, and it was ready when I got there, and of course, as I expected, The food was fantastic! Food was flavorful, the spice bag was fire, the cheesy garlic naan I had literally ordered three of them because I knew it was gonna hit. I actually work in Fremont, and then I realized they have a Fremont location... It's over. My lunch spot for the next month lol

    CTM Fries
    Lynne N.

    Mirchi is a hidden gem for casual and affordable Indian fusion cuisine. The CTM Fries were very flavorful, I love how saucy it is and they gave a lot of chicken in the fries. The Chicken n Waffle was really good, I love how the chicken is big and a good portion size. I would personally skip the Chicken Roll, it tasted alright to me. Staff was friendly and welcoming

    Spicy ranch fries
    Alexis C.

    Delicious food, every item we got was perfect! Food came out relatively quickly as well. No complaints :)

    Chicken garlic noodles
    Jason K.

    This food was so damn good it had me and my friends moaning. I love all the spices and seasoning and we was eating and gobbling everything. No crumbs left behind and the service was nice. It was clean and moderate sounds and wasnt too busy. It got busier after we sat down to eat. I would def come back again! SCHLURP

    Chicken puff pastry
    Nina Z.

    We came here on a nice day. Seemed pretty lively on a Saturday evening, most people opted to sit outdoors. The indoors has colorful and decorative decor. More a fast casual restaurant. Order at the counter and they'll bring your order over. The presentation of the food was low key but tasted great! The Lahori burger - ground beef pattie mixed with onions, chillies, and masala - was very flavorful and juicy! It also comes with choice side of salad or fries. The cheesy garlic naan with the masala dipping sauce is a must. The mango and cardamom lassis paired well with the spiced cuisine. Would go back for that cheese garlic naan alone. Will need to stop by again in the near future.

    Black Pepper Chicken Plate
    Shaista M.

    Mirchi has a variety of Indian and fusion options ranging from curries to wraps, burgers, fried chicken, steak, and more! Everything that I have tried has been decent. Service is always great at this restaurant and it's a perfect spot for a casual get together with friends and family.

    Single smashed burger
    Thuyvi M.

    There are two menus available. The main menu and vegetarian menu. I like that they have options and was transparent with which items had dairy. We were craving smash burgers and wanted try it out. Single comes with 1/4 lb beef patty with american cheese, lettuce, HALAL beef bacon onion jam and house sauce served on a potato bun. Second burger I ordered a double with no cheese and sauce on the side since it has dairy. The burger was really good and full of flavor. The bacon onion jam is really good and makes the burger. The house sauce is full of flavor and has a bit of a kick and amps up the burger. Id definitely order this again. Burger with an Indian flair was a first and won't be the last. I did knock off one star since my double had the house sauce on it but was easily wiped off since one of us can't have dairy. Mirchi Fries are seasoned with Mirchi's spicy masala spice. Fries were hot, fresh, crispy and not greasy. These have a spicy kick so if you can't handle spice I'd say no seasoning. Main dining area isn't as spacious as the outside patio area but a nice spot on a nice warm day to dine in if weather permits. Employees checked on patrons often. Lots of stuff on the walls to look at. There's a shared parking lot and can fill up pretty quick at certain times. Overall good food and customer service! Definitely would come back and try other things on the menu.

    Nimbu pani freeze
    Apsara T.

    I stopped by Mirchi this evening and honestly, this place just keeps getting better. We come here all the time and it is always such a great experience. I got the crispy chicken burger with spicy ranch fries and it was amazing. The burger had the perfect mix of cheese, lettuce, onion, and mayo. And the fries? Drizzled with ranch and buffalo sauce. Perfect combo. My husband ordered the black pepper chicken with the nimbu pani freeze, and we grabbed a kids pizza for the little one. Everything hit the spot. My go to drink is always the Indian cold blended coffee. If you know, you know. I have also tried their paratha wrap and it tastes exactly like something my mom would make at home. At this point we have gone so often that we have made friends with the staff. They are always so warm and friendly. Mirchi really feels like that go-to neighborhood spot. Highly recommend!

    Malai Garlic Chicken Noodles
    Eralyn S.

    Amazing food with equally amazing service! We tried: Malai garlic chicken noodles Cheese pizza on masala sauce Chicken tikka masala Cheese garlic naan bread A plus: they allow dogs in their patio.

    Dan V.

    Juiciest fried chicken ever!! Cooked to perfection and crispy. Do wish it had more of the Pakistani seasoning though - needs a little more spice. CTM fries w the burger were also amazing. Their mint lemon drink was also amazing.

    Fried chicken
    Jose R.

    What a gem of a place, small family run family restaurant in downtown Dublin and another location in Fremont. Another day we'll visit the Fremont location. Back to the Dublin spot, we were passing through and decided to check this place out. Wow, I don't get too excited for fried chicken, but this place has some of the best breaded, best tasting fried chicken, non-greasy and full of flavor and moist chicken! We ordered a little bit of everything, traditional Indian cuisine, delicious Tikka masala and chicken garlic noodles. The entire menu seems to have a hit after hit! The chicken and waffles were delicious, with flavorful tasting waffles. The staff were awesome and made us feel welcome and part of the family right away. We enjoyed the entire experience, delicious drinks (can't go wrong with a mango lassi or mango margarita), and just a family friendly meal. Highly recommend you stop by and grab some chicken! Enjoy, till next time!

    Mirchi Cafe & Masala Pizza is the only eatery in this commercial center. Next to the street, it's easy to see. 2 rooms of seating. Offerings (India, halal, American): specials, pizza & calzones, drinks, salads, small plates, burger & sandwiches, desi stir fries & noodles, desserts, appetizers & snacks.. Order at counter, food brought to table, 10ish minutes. Sips: rooh adza (3)rose water drink. -mix of floral rose water & sugar. Faint floral notes amidst sugarness. Refreshing. Bites: Lahori Burger (14.99) choose salad, got fries. -ground beef patty melt in mouth quality, usual lettuce, picked onions, mayo with potato buns. *mirchi masala sauce & house made green garlic sauce made this a winner. Plentiful fries fried perfectly with nice crispy texture & Al dente innards-no mushiness. Seldom experienced this. Piece de resistance was the spicy masala sauce atop. Salad had cucumbers, lettuce, red cabbage topped with kamchumber sauce which includes the former + salt & water. Fresh it was. *either the salad or fries was comped. If I knew the fries was what I got, I would have ordered it. Everything worthy. Patty smallish. No problem. Didn't want a lot. 5 stars!

They have plenty of options--beef, chicken, and veggie burgers--so there's something for everyone. The shakes are definitely richer and heavier than In-N-Out's, and each one comes with a donut, which the kids loved! They also hand out stickers to children, and the burgers are served with delicious fries. If you're looking for lighter choices, they offer Brussels sprouts and salads, along with a grilled cheese sandwich. And for the adults, they even serve beer. The indoor seating area is on the smaller side, but there are lots of outdoor tables. On a nice day, I'd definitely recommend sitting outside. The burgers were soft and fresh. I thought the kids' burger was a little heavy on the sauce, but that's probably something I could customize next time. Service was quick overall. My only minor feedback is that the server taking our order spoke very softly, making it a bit difficult to hear in the busy Sunday afternoon crowd.

I found this place on here about month ago and bookmarked it. Today I came here to get lunch to go. I ordered there with a staff member. I got the Cali Kid burger (w/ Angus beef), Garlic Fries, and a Chocolate Shake. The guy asked what sauce I want which I asked for his recommendation since it was my first time there. He recommended the Cali sauce, and I said "Okay, I'll go with your recommendation." I didn't know that he was going to charge me for the sauce--$.75. The total with a $1 tip came out to $27 something. Pricey!!! I waited for about 8-10 minutes til my order was ready. The chocolate shake didn't have the pretty chocolate drip like in their pictures, but it was decadent. It is better than In-n-Out's chocolate shake. The mini donut is a cute touch. The Cali Kid burger was pretty delicious, but I still like In-n-Out's Double Double a lot more still. The Garlic Fries was garlic overload. If you're super into garlic, then you might be a fan of this. After a few bites, I got tired of it. The Cali sauce was just okay. I wasn't a fan of it. The place was clean, bold, with plenty of seating indoors & out. In my bag, the gave me a fork, but no napkins. Luckily I was going to go back to the house to eat it, but it kinda sucks that they didn't give any napkins. It was nice to try, but I'll stick with my beloved In-n-Out.

    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.
