A gem of a little restaurant and a great alternative to all the hamburger joints and conventional restaurants in town. Authentic... Indian cuisine - using appropriate herbs and spices. Pleasant decor - bright and cheerful with Indian parasols and picturescombined with photos of Yosemite, (which bears some similarity to the Himalayas). Our waiter was charming and informative. Tarkadahl, goat biryani, gobhi manchurian and tandoori shrimp were particularly noteworthy. The Punjabi music added to the atmosphere(thank you Alexa!). Lassies and kulfis were good and the Reisling went down a treat. Read more

Sadly the only item we liked was the Green Chilli Naan and Garlic Naan. We ordered that and Paneer Kadai and Vegetable Biryani.... Both of these dishes had a weird aftertaste that I couldn't eat after two bites. It was a waste of food. I was hoping to not bedisappointed. The ambience of the place is good. Read more

The food here is well made and comes out at the perfect temperature. We ordered a vegetable makhni with butter naans. The naans... were soft and the makhni sauce is highly recommended. Folks from India should ask for their highest spice level to get thecorrect spiciness. The service could've been better as they were understaffed and the crowd was quite high. Expect longer timesto eat. Read more

Very good industry restaurant before entering yosemite Valley. Food is really good and fresh. We ordered Naan, paneer tikka... starter, chicken tandoori, veg biryani etc. They also have indian beers including Taj. It gets very crowded on weekends orsummer days, So reservations highly recommended. Definitely recommend this place. Read more

Good Stop amidst place like Mariposa. It?s truly a rare find. It?s a bit on pricey side but worth it when you find it in middle... of desert ;) they charged us extras for few sides like onion, lemon , chilli etc along with gratuity. Veg Kadhai was good :)Naans were fresh- we ordered garlic, butte and bullet naans ! Curry ???? dishes come with rice on side, for Vegetables you haveto order rice separately Read more

The service was a bit slow, though admittingly we were there about an hour before close. We waited maybe 30 minutes to get... seated, despite plenty of seats available. It was some of the BEST Indian I have had, however. Everything, from garlic naan totikka masala to tandoori chicken - spot on. I do wish the masala was spicier, other than that - fantastic and would come backagain! Read more
