I have been coming to this restaurant regularly for almost 10 years. The food is always VERY good! But beware of the chicken corn soup. I door dashed some because my daughter and I are fighting the flu. When it arrived it was breaded chicken (like chicken nuggets) cut up and put into slime (my daughter said toad snot). There were about 6 kernels of corn along with some other veggies. I had high hopes in spite of the looks of it. Sadly, they were dashed. The taste of salt and pepper was so strong, and the breaded chicken was slimy. It was sad.Everything else is amazing, but don't order the chicken corn soup.

Staff is always friendly, atmosphere is always relaxing and food is great! They now offer lunch buffet!!One recommendation- bring all dishes to the table at the same time would be nice.

I'm still a regular here, but now I am just loving their buffet. I usually order 2-3 entrees when I come here with my wife. Now I feel like I can have 10+ entrees. Their buffet options are great for vegetarians and meat eaters. They always have one goat and at least a few chicken options. One great standout feature of their buffet is fresh made dosa or naan. For $17.95, their lunch buffet is a great price too.Service here is always excellent. The decor is elegant with many Indians dining here which is always a good sign.

We had them catered to my company and man their jeera pulao and tandoori chicken hit next level. Extremely tender chicken with so much flavor to it. The rice was perfectly cooked and seasoned.Their butter chicken is standard fare as is their butter paneer. I'd come back specifically for their tandoori chicken.

We hired 8 Elements for catering at a party at our home. We had 45 guests, worked with Ganesh on the menu. The communication was prompt and he quickly shared options to cater to our crowd since we had a lot of kids. We had a live dosa counter. The chef was just amazing! Always smiling and willing to help with dosas. He was quick and offered cone dosa to the kids which was a hit! The rest of the food items were all really good- Chicken and Veg Biryani, Sweet corn, Medu wada, Chicken 65. They arrived promptly on time, set up the dosa tava a day before and everything went very smooth. Overall we are happy with catering services and would work with them again.

My family has been going to this restaurant for many years. They are our go to catering vendor. Their in restaurant food is amazing. I love their masala dosas and their sambar is very well made as are their chutneys. This is the place that I like to take friends to eat when in the South Bay. I have not tried their buffet, but if it is anything like their catering food then it must be amazing. We always get both vegetarian and non vegetarian dishes when we have hired them for catering. They always give us good quantities of food and everyone loves the food. I would strongly recommend both their restaurant and their catering services.

The chicken tikka did not taste good and the flavor was not what we were expecting. I hope they change the recipe. The chole batura was my favorite and the size of the batura and naan was great!

Finally tried this 8Elements. It's been around for decade in my area but just tried it today! It had me at Dosa . Nice cozy place. Decor is nice. When dining at Indian restaurant I prefer buffet as I like variety and I never know what to order. Buffet option here is not massive but has your normal options, tandoori chicken, butter chicken, biryani and few other veggie options. In my case it had most of what I go for. I do like pakoras mix battered fried veggie sorta like tempura but they didn't have it at the buffet. I believe they do a rotation as what is offered during buffet but some dishes are always offered. Heat wise if what I had was perfect for me not overwhelming. I had butter chicken, plain rice and tandoori chicken. What sold it for me was the Dosa and it was part of the buffet. At $16.99 not a bad price. I'd go back. What fell short to me was kheer dessert. I prefer it cold and this was warm and not much rice in it just milk. Other was the naan, it was dense not fluff. I think next time will go in earlier as I did show up at 2pm buffet runs till 3pm, food will be more fresher. Service was good they were nice and friendly and refilling water without asking and asking if needed more naan or dosa by request for refill.
