ABOUT US Basanti found a home in June 2017 in beautiful San Juan Capistrano, but it was actually born in my mind since 2007. I always wanted to open a neighborhood restaurant that served delicious Ind…
I ordered the butter chicken and garlic naan from BASANTI and it was honestly amazing. The butter chicken was cooked perfectly — tender, juicy, and full of flavor. I’ve had butter chicken from so many other places where the chicken comes out dry and overcooked, but this was a total step above. The garlic naan was soft, fluffy, and nicely garlicky too.
What really impressed me was the great value and how well everything was packaged. It arrived hot and fresh, which made a big difference. This is easily some of the best Indian takeout I’ve had in a while. Already looking forward to ordering again!

Delicious as usual. One of our fav spots to order from. Food is consistently good and always hot. Portions are good. Chicken Vindaloo and Himalayan Momos are especially tasty. You will not be disappointed. Rice is included with entrees.

Perfectly cooked tandoori chicken. Butter chicken is creamy and yummy that goes very well with their garlic naan. Very good and fair portion. 5 star approved!

Both the vegetable basil coconut curry and Basanti vege sampler were amazing! The food was by far the best Indian food I've had, and I don't say that lightly! Incredible flavor and balance! Plus the packaging held all the way home with no leaks!
