The Best Indian Restaurants Around San Jose and the South Bay | Eater SF

"This international restaurant chain, with one location in a shopping mall in Milpitas and another in Santa Clara, serves classic dishes from the Chettinad region of India. While its menu includes dishes from both Northern and Southern India, stop in to sample steamed rice preparations like aapam and idiyappam with your choice of protein; king fish; ceylon porota, an Indian dish with Sri Lankan influence; ennai kathirikkai, or eggplants cooked in sesame oil; and poondu kuzhambu, a side dish made exclusively with garlic cloves. With branches across South East Asia, they have a large selection of Indo-Chinese dishes as well." - Nandita Godbole
