Northern Curry Pleasanton

This was our first time eating at Northern Curry and we were blown away with how delicious everything was. We had a nice sampling of various items off the menu and, WOW, absolutely fantastic. The variety was great. I?ve eaten in quite a few Indian restaurants over the years and this was more than just the same old curries you find in most places. Very nice selection of various chaats that I?ve never seen before, a sizzling platter of chicken that was cooked perfectly, butter naan. I can?t remember everything we tried but we loved it all. Go. Now.

Food was just purely pathetic! So we ordered: Pani puri- something was just fundamentally wrong with it. They gave us ketchup in place of meetha pani. Sev puri- pretty good Vada pav- the ONLY nice thing on the menu worth the money. Dal makhani- it was just cooked lentils with no spices. We asked for it to made spicy and they brought chilli powder and said you can add it . Paneer tikka masala- we had to reconfirm that it was PTM as it looked nothing like it. It was super bland, again with NO spices- even your toddler would expect to taste some level of spice. Veg hakka noodles- it was SO bad that the saving grace was the Ching 's schezwan chutney on the side. Veg fried rice- please PLEASE don 't order this. This is the WORST thing we had. It was just steamed rice and steamed veggies with barely any salt let alone other spices. They said they were experimenting with it. Overall- please don 't waste your time and money on this place. We were misled by the few good reviews but I would save my money for some other better place.

I saw 4.6 rating I thought it is good, but its not I ordered chaat Dahi sev put Tikki chole chaat Hakka noodles Veg Manchurian Chole chaat and Hakka noodle was not good. I don?t like Manchurian too but my friend liked.

This is one of those family and friends giving 5 stars for the newly opened restaurant. Except ambiance, which also is questionable with pungent heavy cleaning chemicals smell the moment you open the main door to get in, is sub par. We are the first on A Sunday lunch at 11:30am. The beard person serving has no clue and has no interested in answering any questions and avoiding the tables post dropping the food. None came by to check out after dropping the food, which by the way came out very fast as we are the only one there till 12:30pm. Not at all inviting. Chilly chicken is made more like chines fusion. Taste is like 3/5 Fish pakora were bland and I have to sprinkle salt to make palatable and still searching for that zing! Well, it needs some chat masala to bring it to life eat the left overs at home for dinner with my own chat masala . 3/5 Methi Chicken , it?s another bland no spice nor flavor in it. This is the only one the server recommended as I was inquiring to eat something in the spicy curry section . Rotis are thick and under cooked check the roti edges in the pictures, which shows the brown atta under cooked . Taste is 2/5 Panner kathi role, it came with French fries and the only thing in all our meal was tasty! Kathi role is bland and no taste. No salt, nor spicy, well, you know the pattern ?no flavor. One of those bring all ingredients of panner, onions , bell peppers together in a roll and nothing else to talk about. 1/5 I hope they would stay in bussines for long, but given the amount of Indian restaurants around and the diaspora of desi tastebuds, it?s says otherwise. Nothing craving at this place to go back ??????? May be give another try with the chat section and see how they fare there.

We were revisiting Pleasanton after almost 15 years and was revisiting places and got to try this newly opened restaurant. Although they were opened till 9:30 but they accepted us at 9:20 . Server was very polite and helpful. Food was simply amazing. Chole bhature tastes really good and authentic. Hakka noodles were perfect and chicken biryani was very delicious too. Overall a wonderful experience dining here. The best past I liked was they gave compostable boxes for our leftovers, really appreciate this...keep up the good work ????
