Emperor of India 5825 Cottle Road, San Jose, CA 95123

"Used to be friends with the owner, nice guy. Curry recently is more like soup...very watery. First time thought we were unlikely, third time I called and complained to Sunny, the owner who seemed to think that offering to cook it again was the answer : |"

"Super lunch buffet. Great quality delicious food with hot naan at the ready! 2024-01-14 2nd time back and the food is great! However, after seeing the bathroom, I am VERY concerned about how the kitchen might look. Cleanliness should be the same throughout the restaurant. Toilet seat hanging off, floors dirty, and the corners atrocious, smears on the wall. How can employees be clean in this mess and then go back to the kitchen? Unacceptable."

"Came in on a quiet Monday night. It was *really good* for its location and at that price point! I was lured in to try their cheese garlic naan. It was amazing. I wish it were slightly poofier but that’s ok! It was still delicious. First bite was very garlicky and cheesy as promised. We also got butter chicken which was very rich and creamy. Again, super delish and came with a giant side of basmati rice. The other entree we ordered was the Emperor of India special - which was like a tandoori chicken/ lamb/ fish / shrimp. Ya all of those proteins. Again. Fantastic at $18!! Definitely coming back sometime soon to try some of their other curries. Oh and service was hella fast and the staff were very nice."

"Excellent service and delicious food. The staff were so welcoming and friendly and the food was so yummy and satisfying. We had veggie samosas to start and our entrees were the chicken tikka masala, shrimp kebab & daal tadka. The tikka masala was absolutely incredible. We ordered garlic naan and onion kulcha and our server recommended we order the bread basket which also included a cheese stuffed garlic naan that paired incredibly with our meal. We were so happy with our experience and will definitely be back again with friends!"

"A nice, quiet, all you can eat lunch buffet corner. Delicious food. The service is very friendly & polite, and makes you want to come here again for the food & quiet ambience. Don’t be fooled by the dull interior. The food is really good. Veg and non-veg varieties. Perfectly flavored, too! Highly recommendable."
