    Boneless Chicken Curry and Mutton bbq (goat) biryani rice plate.
    Keith V.

    First time here. Greeted with an awesome Chai (tea/sweet) and ordered flavorful Boneless Curry with BIRYANI Rice and Mutton rice plate. Really good spicey food. Served on time and with good portions too. Full with satisfaction. Thank you from Savage Wraps team.

    Special Chicken Biriyani and Chicken Dum Biriyani

    They have wide variety of biriyanis, very fresh and delicious. Serves generous amount in starters as well! One of my regular places to go without a thought!

    - curry leaf chicken - kaju chicken
    Adithya R.

    Picked up curry leaf chicken and kaju chicken to-go. The curry leaf chicken had a good amount of spice, perfect for a South Indian palate. The kaju chicken felt like chicken 65 with some cashews sprinkled on top. It wasn't spicy; however, it would be perfect if you're looking for a mildly spicy appetizer. My order was ready within 10 minutes for pick-up.

    Insect
    Vamika K.

    Do not ever order or dine-in at this place. Their staff Rajitha and Sunil accepted that kitchen space is undergoing insect control treatment and yet they are open and serving customers.I have been feeling pukish ever since I had dinner at this place. They opened their kitchen for me and I viewed one of the most unhygienic kitchens. Chicken biryani was served with the insect. THIS PLACE NEEDS TO SHUT DOWN IMMEDIATELY!! It's a huge risk to ones health.

    Spl - spcl boneless chicken biryani

    I got take-out kaju Chicken and Spl. Chicken Biryani. Kaju Chicken was yummy but Biryani was just a cooked rice with a chicken gravy on it. It was just ok didn't expected this kind of biryani. I had chikku milkshake which I'm sure going to try again.

    Gongura Goat Biryani

    This review is for take out only. Have been going to this place for their biryanis for quite a while. They have wide varieties of biryanis and some of them taste good. Spice level was very rough when they opened the restaurant few years ago but it is decent these days. Place gets busy even for takeout but their ordering via browser is good. Nethi Mamsam roast biryani is my MVP. Boneless goat pieces roasted in ghee on top of biryani is awesome. Tried numerous times and taste s amazing Special Paneer Biryani is decent Ulavacharu Bajji Biryani is another MVP. Very unique bajji in ulavacharu which is horsegram and s amazing n spicy Kaju Soya Biryani was ok on mild side Chicken fry piece biryani is very good Rambo chicken biryani was okish. Chicken pieces in some masala but did not like the flavor Vijayawada Paneer was ok Ulavacharu Paneer is good but ulavacharu Goat and chicken fry piece is awesome My last MVP is Gongura goat and Gongura paneer but gongura flavor with goat is sooper Paneer pakoda was not good

    Ulavacharu Bajji Biryani
    Sahitya M.

    I am a hardcore biriyani lover and this place has a lot of vegetarian biriyani options , that's something for starters. We ordered three biriyanis - ulava charu bajji biriyani - chilli gobi biriyani - gutti vankaya biriyani The first two are absolutely delicious , no regrets whatsoever. Coming to the last one, I felt that the masala wasn't enough for the rice ! It's more on the bland side than the spicy side even for a medium spicy order !! Overall the place has a great to offer for the prices ! It's totally worth a shot if you want to try some new biriyani options

    - chicken 65 biryani
    Kesavamani J.

    I recently dinned here and tried their Chicken 65 Biryani. Unfortunately, I found the taste lacking and the overall hospitality disappointing. I hope they can improve in these areas for future diners.

    Piece of Raw chicken in Raita.
    Kumar V.

    I have been a regular customer to this restaurant over the last 3 years, visiting 3-4 times a month. Paneer/Veg biryani are my favs here, though I eat chicken. What made me give 1 star and decide to never visit it again? I got bones a couple of times in veggie biryani or paneer biryani.. but I was kind of ok with it because I eat chicken. But, I got this raw piece of chicken in Raita (Yogurt sauce) given as accompaniment with biryani. Worst handling of food in my opinion. Sad to see this place go out from my to go list.

I visited during lunch with a few friends, and we were wowed by the variety of food options. The naan was served fresh, and everything we tried tasted really good. Service is very good and naan was replenished quickly. I also catered food from them for my spouse's 50th birthday party, and the food was a huge hit with all our guests. Everything was delivered on time and tasted perfect. For appetizers, we ordered Dahi Bhalla, Achaari Paneer, and Gobi Manchurian. For the main course, we had Chana Masala, Butter Chicken, and Paneer Lababdar, along with Naan and Lachcha Paratha. We also ordered Moong Dal Halwa for dessert. Dahi Bhalla was a super hit! Several guests said it was hands down the best Dahi Bhalla they had ever had at a restaurant. All the other dishes were equally delicious and received lots of compliments. Overall, whether you're looking for a great North Indian buffet or catering for a party, I highly recommend this place. We will definitely be ordering from them again!

    Yelp knows me pretty well by now. It knows I like Indian food, so Vande Bharat kept popping up in…read moremy recommendations. It's been sitting there for a while, so the wifey and I finally decided to drive down to Milpitas and give this Thali place a try. I'm glad we did because their Thali is probably one of the best we've had, if not the best. FYI Thali is LUNCH only. Here is my take. Food (4.5 stars) +The Combo Thali for around $18 is the way to go. Don't overthink it and don't order anything else. You get a little bit of everything, which is exactly why we like Thali. If there's something you don't like, just give it to your partner. My wife doesn't like lamb, so I ended up with double lamb. Bonus for me! + Lamb curry was probably my favorite. Tender meat with a flavorful curry and it went perfectly with the rice. Since my wife donated hers to me, I had plenty! + Fried fish is also very good. You don't get a huge piece, but with so many other things on the plate, it's enough. That's the beauty of Thali--you get a few bites of everything instead of committing to one giant dish. + Chicken curry was also good. Nothing on the plate really needs to be eaten by itself because everything complements each other. You get savory, spicy, sour and even a little sweet throughout the meal. + There are also the usual Thali sides like dal, sumbar, yogurt, dessert and another sour/soupy dish. Rice sits right in the middle and you basically mix and match your way through the entire plate. + I also really like the papadum. It's that thin crispy Indian cracker that gives you a nice crunchy break between all the curries and softer foods. ~ PRO TIP: The only thing to consider is whether you prefer a Thali or an Indian buffet. At a buffet, you can essentially get many of these same types of dishes and eat as much as you want. With a Thali, you're getting smaller portions of everything. Personally, I like the variety and having everything served together, especially when the combo is only around $18. Service/Ambiance (4.5 stars) + We came during lunch and there was only one other customer while we were there, so service was good and the food came out rather quickly. + The restaurant has some really nice paintings along the walls. Some of the scenery almost looked Mediterranean to me, although I'm assuming they're depicting places somewhere in India. Either way, they add some character to the restaurant. + It's a comfortable, casual place to sit down and enjoy a Thali without much fuss. GET THE COMBO! You get fish, lamb, chicken, rice, dal, sides, dessert and all the little extras that make eating Thali fun. Between the two of us, if one person doesn't like something, the other person probably will. In my case, that strategy resulted in double lamb, so I definitely wasn't complaining. Wifey gives Vande Bharat 4.5 stars and I'm right there with her. For the price, variety and flavors, this is easily one of our favorite Thali meals we've had. Yelp got this recommendation right!

You can tell they really put so much work into the wall art as well as the installation of a decorative power line, to make it feel like you are dining outside on a nice, balmy day even if it's actually the middle of winter. The pani puri station is so fun and whimsical, the server prepares each bite for you while you pick which sauce you want to go with it. I felt like I was at a night market.

So far my experiences here have been pleasant, with the service being friendly and there being an ample amount of seating inside. I've noticed that the food tends to run on the spicier side (we ordered mild and yet it was still spicy, though perhaps just a sign of my spice tolerance failing me), but outside of that it tasted good. Panni Puri - This was my first time trying a panni puri and it tasted really good, even though I found it spicy (we ordered mild). I especially loved the texture of the onions inside of it. I ate it earlier on which made it harder for me to tell which other dishes were spicy and which ones weren't at the time as a result of its lingering spiciness, but I would happily order it again given the opportunity. Punugulu/Veggie Puff/Vegetarian Fried Rice - All three of these were good and I do recall them being non-spicy. The veggie puff was especially refreshing after trying to get through the paneer pulav Mirchi Bajji - These were also good and surprisingly not as spicy as I thought they would be, considering that they have chili peppers in them Naan with House Vegetable Curry - The vegetable curry was really spicy and it took me a while to realize this because I was still dealing with the effects of the panni puri while I was eating this. Had I not brought some of it home as leftovers I probably would've thought that this was non-spicy Paneer Pulav - Much spicier than expected. I needed to use some of the curd to tone it down but it was still good. The texture of the rice was good too The cold drinks on their menu come in a reusable bottle and from their display I can assume that their desserts are the same way. So far the ones I've tried (mango lassi, rose milk, and chikoo shake) have been refreshing. There's also a falooda section that closes at around 8:00 pm, but I haven't been able to try them yet as both times we got there past eight. Overall a pleasant experience in spite of the spiciness. Perhaps one day I'll be strong enough to handle it without the curd, but it'll probably take a couple of additional visits before I can.

They catered our wedding of 260 guests, and Tarun and his team completely blew everyone away. We had a VERY hard-to-please crowd, including a lot of guests coming from India who work in hospitality and restaurants themselves, and people could not stop talking about the food. I searched high and low for a Bay Area Indian wedding caterer and honestly found a lot of the options disappointing. Amber was completely different. The food was incredibly flavorful, beautifully cooked, and actually presented well too, which can be hard to pull off at this scale. They are also a full service caterer, which makes managing the event much easier. We used Amber for all of our wedding events, and Tarun made sure every menu felt different and interesting rather than just repeating the standard butter chicken-type dishes. We had paneer tacos, Indo-Chinese served in Chinese takeout boxes, which was SUCH a cute touch, pani puri shooters that made them super easy to eat, and an incredible rasmalai tres leches for dessert, among many other items. The value is also amazing. For some of our pre-wedding events, we did their roughly $40/person package with four items plus dessert. I was worried it might not be enough food, but it was more than plentiful. Tarun himself is an absolute gem. He is kind, accommodating, creative, and goes above and beyond to make the event feel special. You can tell he genuinely cares. We did not want a standard buffet as we wanted the event to feel more elevated, and he did a great job of accomodating our request for family style, as well as serving apps + mains at two different venues in the South Bay ~20-30 min from each other. Our guests are still talking about the food. Amber India truly helped make our wedding weekend, and I would recommend them without hesitation. Easily one of the best decisions we made.
