Ajanta Restaurant

If you’re a vegetarian , this place is going to thrill you. Ditto if you’re a meat eater. And the kitchen is happy to make adjustments for vegans , so everyone wins. Read more

Vegetarians will want to try the meaty portobello mushrooms . I will admit I was skeptical about portobello mushrooms used in an Indian context, but it was awesome. Read more

The tasting menu is a great choice. So much variety of delicious food!

strongly suggest the dinner specials . Comes with a samosa , your entre with rice , naan , and fixings. By far the best Indian restaurant I have ever been too. Sooooo much flavor !

I have stopped ordering samosas after my travels in India—stateside, they are often tough and taste like they were fried two days ago. But the two versions here got me back on the samosa train . Read more

The eggplant (Lucknow) and okra (Tamil Nadu) are excellent, flavorful vegetarian options . And the dal.

Best Indian food and ambience..bit pricy though. .

The finest Indian food in the Bay Area. A truly special dining experience.

Best Indian food in Berkeley.

Hyderabad chicken , green fish curry and cashew naan , all superb

Great dinner !! Ask for the Badal Jaam... Yummy...

Got takeout with great anticipation based on all of the review accolades. Terrible food. Watery poorly seasoned sauces in pools around dry overcooked meat. Save yourself the trip.

Restaurant looks fancy but food was disappointing. Not enough salt in anything. Biriani just has a lot of cashew and raisins but there was no masala .

Malabar chicken curry is fabulous. Have with Seghesio zin.

Kulfi , pistachio dessert

I will NOT be going back. Overpriced for the portion and there was something floating in all three of our water glasses.

Get a big King Fisher!

the sambhar , currently on the menu, is outstanding!

Overhyped. Poor service. Won't be back. Better chicken tika masala in our hometown for half the price & way friendlier service!

Not too many vegetarian options .
