“ We've been here a few times after Wednesday night volleyball at the local rec center. They are never too busy for our large group (thankfully) and they are really friendly and accommodating. Quiet atmosphere too. Their food is good and they offer a large menus of dishes. ”

“ I came here with 3 other friends. We were particularly craving Indian cuisine, however, wanted to try a new establishment. We did some research and found that this particular restaurant had great reviews on multiple platforms. We decided to try several dishes as outlined below: Aloo Tikka Chaat: 3.5/5, we started off with these potato bites, however these fell short of my expectations. There were way too many flavors going on at once that I thought didn't quite compliment each other. I would skip on these and go for the samosas or some other appetizer. Don't forget to order the garlic naan! Butter chicken: 5/5, I loved both the tikka and butter chicken, however I definitely preferred the butter chicken more. We asked for medium spice level. The flavors were so creamy, rich and savory. I think the chicken was some part of the thigh, therefore had a good fat/lean protein ratio. It went so well with the garlic naan. If you can tolerate some spice, i'd recommend going up one level above medium. Chicken Tikka Masala: 4.5/5, it was quite creamery and aromatic, which complimented basmati rice and the garlic naan extremely well. I'm not too familiar with the culture and history behind Indian cuisine, but I noticed the chicken used in this dish was much more lean, resembling chicken breast. It had more of a chew and was a bit more dry. Still delicious with rich, savory, sweet tikka masala sauce. Lamb biriyani: 5/5, chose "hot" spice level for this dish and it was the perfect spice level. Lamb was tender marinated with a myriad of different spices. I typically don't mind the "gaminess" of certain proteins, but I didn't think it was gamey at all. Tandori chicken: 4/5, I thought this dish was quite dry. Again, likely breast over thigh. It had great flavor, but not as tender. Perhaps, try a different protein, or try another dish off the menu. The staff was incredible patient and courteous. She would come back every so often to check to see if we needed anything else and to refill our waters. Ambiance was fine, nothing to rave about. Plenty of street parking. ”

“ A quiet local spot that has been recommended by multiple neighbors. We enjoyed all the dishes we had, but everything was a little sweeter than you would expect. We were seated immediately and service was as expected. It's definitely good in a pinch if you're craving Indian food and are nearby. ”

“ FOOD IS AMAZING GOOD! I have made a random order from this place and i was so much impressed from the food i have ordered! I would say this is memorable for me and now it is my favorite place for Indian cuisine and i will hardly change my mind in future! Thanks for the pleasure of taste! ”

“ I came here with a friend on a monday night and it was super easy to get seating! Service was great and the food for the most part was delicious. My only complaint was the taste of the mango lassi - there was something Really off about it. I always order this drink when I'm at any Indian restaurant and this was the only place where it tasted way too earthy! I would still probably come back for the food but definitely won't be ordering mango lassi again. ”

“ We did a takeout order because our usual Indian place was closed. We found the curries here a bit unusual. They all kind of similar tasting. The spice level was very good -- mild was still a little hot which was ok with us. The spinach is whole spinach rather than chunks so it felt a little stringy. It was all oilier than we are used to. I liked the eggplant dish and the kadai chicken. The butter chicken wasn't as sweet or creamy as we are used to. ”

“ Amazing! Came here on a whim with my husband on a Monday night for dinner after we took classes in the city. We stumbled upon Tilak on our drive home, as a random find because by around 8:30pm lots of business start to prepare to close and Tilak was one of the restaurants that were open late ish. We weren't too hungry so we just ordered dishes to try and share! One is the potato appetizer which I believe its called the Aloo Tikka. We also ordered the paratha, vegetable biriyani and lamb curry. One thing that I have to mention is that Indian spice don't play, even with someone like me the medium level spice was quite spicy, so I would recommend mild if you want your food to be enjoyable. Besides the food being a bit more spicy than my preference, everything was seasoned nicely and the presentation on that appetizer also blew my husbands mind. Everything was also soooo affordable, with all of that ordered (on top of leftovers) we spent less than $50 for the 2 of us. Overall, would love to come back to this spot again and try other dishes!! ”

“ In a word, Phenomenal! I'd been wanting to try Tilak for ages but they didn't deliver to our neighborhood. Tonight they did, so we took the chance... and it exceeded my expectations! We had samosas, with the tastiest Indian chutneys I've had in SF. For our entrees we had the lemon rice (Perfectly cooked and seasoned!) with Chana Saag (the fresh chopped spinach was a nice departure from the usual puréed over cooked style I find a lot in Indian restaurants) and Lamb Bhuna (divine, and wonderfully spiced). I hope they'll continue to deliver to our neighborhood because the food is excellent, excellent, excellent! ”
