Satkar Indian Cuisine - Fresh naan!! Loved it! - Indian Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

Authentic Punjabi Food. Family Owned (who were all really nice). Reminded me of food back home.

Came with a coworker who was curious to check it out since we're both veg*n only to find a sign on the door that they've started serving meat, so that was a little disappointing. But we were undeterred and ordered anyway. I'd gotten the palak paneer, my favorite Indian dish and my usual basis for comparison, with kulcha naan and it was okay, but nothing to really write home about. The palak paneer was a bit sweeter than I had expected, but other than that, just fine. My coworker and I also split vegetable pakora that came with a somewhat spicy sauce (I am a spice wimp, but he is very much not), and those were pretty good. I don't quite remember what my coworker got as his main, maybe one of the dal dishes, but he also thought it was fine. The location itself is pretty small, and seems to be more for takeout than sit down diners, although that is what we did. Parking was pretty easy in the plaza, but that might be because the pizza place next door appeared to be closed? Things felt slightly dingy, but I think maybe in truth things were just a bit worn, right down to the Corelle plates which seemed like they had been in service for a long time. Decor is pretty sparse, but the lady behind the counter was nice enough when we were ordering. Overall, not a bad experience, but also not much of a draw for me. But if you like your Indian food a little on the sweeter side, maybe this is the place for you. read more

Good food served by a humble team in a casual setting. Vegan/vegetarian friendly food is cooked in a home style kitchen and has authentic flavors. The service is quick. I would recommend them to everyone looking for a vegetarian meal. read more

Good service! Haven't had the food but the vibes were great (there was no one inside)!

Chicken Korma and Chicken Balti were excellent, both had great depth of flavor and tasted like good home made versions.

This spot is the definition of a family-owned, hole-in-the-wall gem. The ambiance isn't fancy by any means--but that's not what you come here for. You come for the food, and wow, does it deliver. We tried the Malai Kofta, Shahi Paneer, Biryani, Amritsari Kulcha, and naan, and every single dish tasted like it came straight from a mom's kitchen. Comforting, home-style flavors in every bite. The naan was perfectly soft, and the Malai Kofta ended up being my favorite--rich, creamy, and packed with flavor. Service was good too--friendly and straightforward with no complaints. If you're looking for delicious, homestyle Indian food without the frills, this place is absolutely worth a visit read more

I've been buying Satkar food for a couple of years now when they are at the Saratoga Farmer's Market at West Valley College. Always tasty and excellent. I buy several days worth to hold me into the week. Always very fresh. For example, if I buy at 9 in the morning my experience is that the Samosa's are still warm from cooking when I get home to eat at 10am. The conscientious chef is up much of the night before, or early in the morning, to cook fresh for the day. His sauces are so excellent. I sometimes stretch his dishes by pairing with my own vegetables as his sauces are so good. I highly recommend Satkar. read more

Place was recommended to me by my general physician who is Indian. Phoned up August 12, 430pm and ordered $16 chicken korma, $16 chicken makhani, $14 bengan bhartha, each with a choice of naan or basmati rice. Took 50 minutes for my order to be ready at 522pm, and had to make a U turn onto bumper to bumper El Camino Real rush hour traffic 2 miles back to my house. The chicken korma and chicken makhani were curry dishes, spicy and full of flavors, with a decent amount of chicken. Went well over cooked cauliflower. The bengan bhartha is cooked eggplant, chopped and pulverized. Among the best eggplant dishes I have ever tasted, Indian or Chinese. Wife's favorite. Phoned up October19 430pm, and found out they were no longer serving meat dishes, only vegetarian dishes. Ordered the $14 bengan bhartha, the $14 Malai Kofa, and the $14 Navrattan Korma, the last two with plenty of vegetables in a spicy curry sauce. Combined them with the naan that came with the dishes. In the future, will order dishes from this place only after eating Costco chicken. Will combine the leftover rotisserie chicken breasts with the vegetarian curry dishes to satisfy my carnivore cravings. read more

Small and no frills place. Chhole Bhature is definitely worth coming back for. Rotis are nice and soft. Dahi Vada and Mushroom matar masala could definitely be better. read more

Satkar Indian Cuisine - Cholay Bhature - Indian Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

Comfort food. We came for dining in here after many years. Eating hot naan and hot curries on a cold day is an experience in itself. Unanimous winner was Palak Paneer! My personal favorite is Baingan Bhartha. Unlike many other restaurants around, they dont use a lit of cream in their curries, so the curries taste flavorful. It is a small place, but could fit us a group of 6. read more

I enjoy stopping by this place when I'm craving some fresh, piping hot, North Indian curries and bread(naan/ roti). Tried the chhole kulche and paneer bhurjee with roti. Food is yummy and service is very friendly and welcoming. They have plenty of parking but limited seating (indoor only). I also like karhai paneer. This is now a vegetarian only food joint! read more

Inferior since they switched to vegetarian. Used to be one of the best and they removed every signature dish. Now it's just overpriced chaat. You can find much better in the area. read more

This is a small location but the food has big flavor. I picked up a paneer wrap from here and it was great! The lady at the front was super nice. She seemed genuinely concerned that I asked for no spicy sauce and said she would pack some on the side just in case I changed my mind. They also cut and packed the wrap in two pieces to make it easier to eat which was very thoughtful. Appears to be family run which always gets extra points from me. read more

This place was highly recommended and has great reviews. Overall good flavors but nothing that blows my socks off. I also feel like it's not great value. Butter chicken -- solid flavor but my fiancé said mine is better. It came with chopped up tandoori chicken where the chicken had red coloring. I feel like there's probably only 1 thigh worth of heat. Rogan Josh -- sauce is tasty but also very little meat. Meat is very tender . Tandoori shrimp -- this was probably the next value dish. It came with about a dozen prawns! Good and tenders. Some pieces were a little mushy. Onion naan -- also solid but lacked onions, very little onions in the center. Good place for solid Indian food but nothing extraordinary . read more

Such a great little hole in the wall joint. I've heard some great reviews of this place and everything lived up to the hype. As a white guy I'll go for the basic indian dishes and they were on point. The butter chicken was amazing, it had a really good smokey flavor which I've never had before. It was great. The Aloo Gobi was great too. So much flavor We also got the garlic naan, so fresh and delicious. Had some good garlic flavor without being over powering. Definitely a new go-to Indian spot in Sunnyvale. Only a few small tables inside, seems like mostly a to-go place but you can sit inside if you really want. I think it's a family run business which is awesome. You can tell they really care about amazing food they tastes authentic. read more

Loved this place when they had meat dishes. The Butter Chicken was the best in the area. Rumor has it, meat dishes are coming back, just don't know when read more

My husband was a little surprised, because he remembered the last time we ordered from here there were meat options. We ordered anyway and the food was pretty good. I am perfectly fine with only vegetarian options. We ordered normal spiciness which caught me off guard, but it was pretty good. I liked that the naan was a good portion. We ordered for pick up. There is a small seating area. There is a parking lot near other businesses off of El Camino in Sunnyvale near the border of Mountain View. Other than less selection on the menu, the food was pretty good and I would return for take-out with people who are fine with vegetarian-only options. read more

Super Delicious !! I would say this was the best Chole-Kulche we had yesterday as of now read more

Haven't eaten here for a long time but the food is always excellent. It's a tiny hole in the wall type of place although there are a few tables. Typically, good turnaround time on orders and friendly service but the occasional wait is testament to the great food that draws many customers. I'll definitely be heading back there next time I'm in the neighborhood. read more

One of the hidden gem restaurants in Bay Area. Food quality is top notch. Everything is made fresh , so be sure to order ahead. Very friendly service and has kept consistent top quality over the years . read more

Amazing food but plan ahead, they get crazy busy and the wait times can be long. It's well worth it though. Delicious!

While prices have gone up (haven't they everywhere?), this is still our favorite Indian restaurant for take out. They used to be a bit more generous with their starches (especially the naan that came with the entrees), but I understand increased costs and the need to scale back a little. That said, I feel like Satkar is a still a solid value (for takeout) compared to other options. The quality of the food has remained high, and they seem as busy as ever before. If you call for take out, plan for 30 - 60 minutes before your food is ready... quality takes time, and I'm okay with that! If you eat here, plan on takeout only. They have two or three tables, but the customer area is quite small, and you probably won't be comfortable dining in with all the in and out of the takeout foot traffic. read more

Food is pretty good! Ordered the papri chaat, bhel puri, aloo poori, and cholay bhature. The chaats were really well balanced and the chutneys were delicious! The aloo from the aloo poori was really good and we had an option of having it be thinner or thicker (we chose thicker), which was nice. The cholay bhature was also pretty good, but the cholay was just fine in my opinion. Really small restaurant, so it may be better for takeout during peak times. You can tell everything is made fresh which I appreciate! Overall pretty solid! read more

Mom and pop shop with homely Punjabi recipes. And I couldn't believe I would ever have kulchas in US. I would recommend you do a takeout from this place. Dine in experience overwhelms the limited space they have as well as the workers. We waited a lot for our food. Even the takeout should be ordered with buffer time built in because they get far more orders than what they can handle. Maybe it's also because we went on a Friday night. Growing pains is good. They can really do well if they address it and manage it well. I wish them growing customers be it weekends or weekdays. read more

This place has the biggest naan I have ever seen! The food has just the right amount of spice where you feel the kick, but not too much where you can't taste the flavor. I got the: - Chicken Tikka Masala with naan (4.5/5) It was really flavorful and had a good amount of chicken to naan ratio. - Chicken Biryani (4.5/5) I really like the addition of raisins as it adds sweetness to the dish! The only con was that the wait for our food was a little long (about 30 minutes). Otherwise, I would love to visit this place as a to-go option. read more

Great food, made fresh to order, reasonable prices, generous portions, helpful staff: What more could you ask?

A little place where they serve to order. Only waited maybe 10 minutes? Super fast. The rice and Chicken Makhani (butter chicken) were served to perfection for me (medium spicy) and the Naan was double what I normally receive. And delicious! I highly recommend you go there soon. Lunches are popular and they have a large take-away clientele. read more

One of my favorite Indian eateries in the Sunnyvale/Mountain View area, and I've tried most of them! All the dishes are so flavorful and well prepared, from the samosas and the naan to the curries and biryanis. They did just go all vegetarian several months ago which has resulted in a somewhat more limited menu, but still everything is so tasty! There are a few tables for dining in, but we always get takeout. read more

Used to be good, but doesn't seem the same anymore. Curries lacked taste, and chilli powder overpowered any other spices. read more

Well, this is my 3rd review I guess. Took a break from Satkar as I was addicted to it. Especially its Malai kofta. But regretted almost every single time .. can't believe most of the Indian restaurants have lost the plot. They are after making crappy food, loading with poor quality ingredients. Don't be surprised when you have food coma, feel bloated and disgusted. Happily returned back to Satkar. Can't stress this enough- Satkar is the best read more

Food is good. Lot of wait time, as very less sitting arrangements. Ambiance is ok, it's just a good place you have homely lunch. Vegetarian options are good. read more

I was on the hunter for butter chicken and decided to try Satkar considering the great reviews. I did read that the orders would take upwards of an hour, so decided to call in a little before noon on a weekday for takeout. I ordered the Butter Chicer which is called Chicken Makhani, and a side of Garlic Naan! I was told my order would take about 40 minutes, but I headed over at the 1 hour mark just to minimize waiting time. Satkar is located in a strip plaza next to Bevmo with plenty of parking. In fact, the parking lot and the restaurant were empty at lunch hour. My order was ready for me and I sped home to enjoy my meal. Side note - they take Apple Pay! The Butter Chicken dish comes with a side of basmati rice so I didn't have to order extra. I decided to pair the chicken with both rice and pieces of the garlic naan. The naan was HUGE, fresh, and full of flavor. I can't imagine myself ordering the normal naan, though I'm sure it's also great, because garlic over everything. Everything was so so so delicious the tomato cream sauce were seasoned with various spices to create the perfect flavor. It had a kick, but I would classify the chicken as mild to medium, not too spicy at all! Paired with the basmati rice and naan, it makes for the perfect meal. Overall, delicious Indian food found in Sunnyvale. I can't believe I just found out about this place, but I will definitely be coming back! read more

Satkar has been on my list to try since forever, the only reason I never tried them before was because they usually have a long wait time and I didn't have the patience. I finally got to try them couple weeks ago. They did have a 2hour wait time but they were upfront about it and the food was ready at the time they mentioned it would be, which is great. Pick up was really easy. They had a counter set up at the door and I felt safe picking up as it wasn't crowded. I ordered Tandoori chicken, Veg biryani and Malai kofta which comes with a side of rice or naan. The food was flavorful and authentic, it reminded me of ghar ka khaana (home-cooked food). It was totally worth the 2 hour wait. Biryani portion was quite small compared to what you get in other Indian places, not a big deal for me though. Would absolutely recommend this place, can't wait to order from here again. read more

This place was actually better than I thought it would be and I'm glad I stopped by everything from the moment I walked in felt smooth and easy the people working there were super kind and not just because they had to be they seemed like they really wanted you to have a good time which made a big difference I noticed how they made eye contact and smiled naturally and checked in just enough to feel looked after the food was really solid too like it didn't try too hard but still ended up tasting really good I could tell someone paid attention to the seasoning and textures cause it all came together really nice the portions were reasonable and the temperature was right nothing came out cold or weird I liked how the space wasn't too loud or hectic just a nice balance so you could relax and enjoy your plate without being distracted the way they treat everyone kindly stuck out to me cause you don't always see that anymore it felt like a place where the people and the food both matter and that's what I look for when I go out. read more

What more can I say? read more

This place is absolutely fantastic! The food is delicious, everyone who works here is incredibly kind and caring. The place is always clean and has a very homey welcoming atmosphere.
