My husband and I ordered delivery and got a chicken vindaloo and chicken tikka masala. The portions were large, the flavor was incredible, and the spice was on point!! We have never been in person but now we cannot wait to go. This meal was absolutely delicious!! 110% recommend!!

I normally just get masala sauce, but wanted to try something new. The Saag Paneer was delicious! Just more mellow in flavor than the rich tomato in Chicken Tikka Masala. The Garlic Cheese Naan was delicious although the garlic was slightly undercooked this time. The Aloo Paratha was good, although the potato tasted slightly undercooked as well. Chicken 65 was not worth the steep price, as the chicken was chewy/dry and it came in a little pint box. The flavor was good and smell was closer to sweet and sour chicken. I would order again, but still believe the price of anything with meat here is way over the necessary charge. Flavors are fresh every time

The guys were really amazing. I've been coming here for years and the food is always amazing. Tonight they went above and beyond. I forgot to add a garlic naan to my order and they threw some in for free.

India Palace continues to be my go-to for some of the best Indian food in San Diego!
The Highlights:
• Lamb Karahi: Absolutely phenomenal. The lamb was incredibly tender and lean—practically melted in my mouth with zero gristle.
• Chicken Pakoras & Samosas: The pakoras had that perfect, satisfying crunch, and the samosas were packed with flavor. Great starters.
• Chicken Biryani: Really delicious and well-seasoned. The chicken was just a hair on the dry side, but the flavors were so good it didn’t even matter.
The One Catch:
I have to give a fair warning: skip the Diet Coke. For the second time in a row, the soda arrived completely flat and tasteless, almost like it was from a bad or expired batch (no expiration date on the bottles). Last time I got a partial refund, but this time I didn't get any resolution for it.
Bottom Line: The food is 8/10 and I’ll definitely be ordering again, but I’ll be buying my beverages separately next time.

We had a $700 order and we have been ordering from restaurants all week that have always messed up our order. THIS WAS THE FIRST ONE THAT GOT IT RIGHT. WE WERE VERY IMPRESSED! Also, the food was so good! The blooming Onion Bhaji was amazing! Just like Outback.
