Amber India

Taste is authentic and service is professional. Very nicely prepared food that taste like its been done by real chefs with lots of hard work. I've been returning a couple times in the past 7 years and their menu is pretty consistent. Recommending the chicken biriyani (bomb yogurt sauce), nimbu chicken, and garlic naan.

A traditional Indian taste after a long time. I throughly enjoyed the chicken tandoori. The meat had the right amount of spice and tenderly cooked. Also the fried prawns were extremely cooked. The butter chicken was my favorite. I have tried in many restaurants and it was very creamy and not well cooked but in Amber,every aspect of butter chicken was awesome and the chicken was well cooked in the curry.

One of the great authentic Indian places in the Bay Area . Everything served here is of the highest quality and adheres to authenticity and freshness Our favorite is their afternoon lunch buffet , the Santa Row location currently has Friday and weekend buffet and the Los Altos location has sat/sun buffet I would eat the buffet only for the endless goat curry and naan The butter chicken and naan or butter chicken and rice is out of this world , again worth the price of the buffet for this alone The vegetarian entrees are spectacular, saag dishes are great , panned dishes are excellent In general sauces are rich and flavorful and mildly spicy Excellent place for a celebration or conversation

Having been there for a couple of times and being impressed by their cuisine and hospitality every single time. This time we happened to order a to go meal and it did turn out to be an amazing decision :). Happened to order Saag Panner, Chingari Paneer Tikka , Butter Chicken and a Stuffed Naan. Cooked to precision and just perfect when it comes to striking a balance between making it rich in spices and calm on the chilli. All the dishes turned out to be great. The only thing that could probably have been done better was to add more pieces of paneer to the Saag paneer as it was pretty rich with spinach but we literally had to nose dive in it to gather some good pieces of paneer. Definite recommendation in case the craving for Indian food peeks up and you are looking to have it addressed!!!

In my humble opinion this is the best Indian restaurant in San Jose. It is definitely not cheap, but the quality of the food, service, location etc. are worth the price. The dishes are quite large so take that into account, and don't miss the naan bread and dips for starters - it really gives the whole meal a better start. Important: free parking at the beginning of Santana Row street (this is the address on Google Maps: 330 Winchester Blvd, San Jose, CA 95128).
