Curry Up Now,

1745 San Pablo Avenue, Oakland, CA 94612

"I would rate it zero stars if it was based on my last order, which included the most disgusting, wet, flavorless biryani I've ever had, and cauliflower with uncooked batter (see photo, the lighter colored batter in the cauliflower florets is all completely raw). The only reason I'm giving it 2 stars is that my last meal there was tasty, but I'm pretty pissed off that I spent money on this, and my stomach is pretty pissed off that I ate any of it and has let me know in no uncertain terms."

"Super chill and delicious casual food spot - can order for take out, dine in or delivery. Great ambiance and good service, big portions and free water."

"It's good for once in a time. Food is okay, tasty. Non meat eaters should be careful while ordering. They have a combined menu to choose curries. They should have made it separate menu for food without meat and with meat. It would have been great. They do ask while ordering though, that's good... Ambiance is good... highchairs also available. Outside tables are also available. Little pricey but okay for the taste not for the quantity. It's maintained well. Clean and tidy..."

"7-stars for the staff and service, they’re so friendly, nice and really nice. I was really tired after a long day of moving and their smile and enthusiasm perked me up. I haven’t seen this in a while at most restaurants. A great selection of food here, lots of offerings that aren’t available at most Indian restaurants. However, everything tastes like it came out of a packaged box (like those Indian food packets that last forever) or Costco or frozen. I wish they used better ingredients and the food tasted fresher, I’d go more often. The food is very tasty, so if you don’t care that it didn’t taste fresh, then go here! 7 stars for service. 5 stars for menu options. 4 stars for food taste 2.5 stars for food quality and freshness."
