I had an absolutely delightful experience at this South Indian restaurant! The owner’s friendliness and warm hospitality made the dining experience even more enjoyable. The food was simply outstanding, with a wide variety of authentic South Indian dishes that left my taste buds dancing with joy. Every dish was prepared to perfection, and the flavors were incredibly rich and satisfying. I can’t wait to return and savor those mouthwatering delicacies again. Highly recommended for anyone who loves delicious South Indian cuisine served with a smile!

The masala dosa was yummy. I loved their sambar, alu masala and the peanut chutney. The Andhra chicken curry was yummy too ! Will go again.

The best Indian restaurant I’ve ever been to was this one. Every other restaurant serves curry that tastes like fermented water, but Golkonda did not. This is how real Indian cuisine tastes. Curry that is rich and thick and flavorful enough to taste all the spices used in it, not one that has been washed down. If you’re looking for real Indian food in San Jose, I’d suggest this eatery. I’m going to keep going to this place whenever I have the chance.

This review is for togo. There is decent parking space and dining seems to be good for small to big groups as well

Food was so good that we took food on our flight all the way! We went on our flight day morning and were probably the first ones in the restaurant. The owner was very curious and suggested what their specials are and what people prefer to have around there. We ordered nanns and curries both meat and veg. One Gobi appetizer. All. Tasted good. Biryanis were a hit among all

I am quite critical of Indian food as I feel like Indian food in SF is fairly poor quality. However, this place is worth the travel. The Biryani tastes just like home and it is absolutely mouth-watering. It’s my go-to recommendation and a sure stop any time I’m in South Bay. Service is great. Interior is certainly “no frills” but I love a good hole in the wall. Definitely add this to your list of must-eats!

This little spot has some of the best, and spiciest Indian food I’ve ever tasted! The servers are attentive, knowledge, and polite. The portions are generous and well priced. Don’t even bother coming here if you’re a wimp, though. They put some flavor on their food!

We came here for a team lunch on Friday. The place wasn’t crowded. We started with a couple of veg and non veg starters. We noticed all of the items had a lot of salt to an extent where we couldn’t enjoy the food. When ordering the main course we asked to have the chef put less salt. And to our surprise the pepper chicken we ordered had so much salt that we had to ask to take it back. The server didn’t get another plate of pepper chicken and later we had to tell him to remove that item from the final bill.

“Taste main best”. One of the best biryani in town. Amazing and awesome and delicious food. We tried ghe roasted chicken fry and it was amazing. Truly authentic. This place is not very popular for dine in but I realized after visiting this place that it’s best place to try veg and nonveg both options with authentic taste. Also, Vijaywada boneless biryani was best. Owner of this place is very friendly and gives information about spice level. Also, he recommends as per our request and that dishes will bring a joy on the table.
