We were party of 8 celebrating our friends graduation. We chose to eat at this Indian restaurant last minute. We called and ordered appetizers on the phone and reached there around 230pm, half an hour before closing. Customer service was top notch. Beautiful restaurant with very accommodating staff who strive to give their best even though they were about to close. The food is 10/10 but our favorite was lamb chops. We have not tasted that tender and delicious lamb chops which just melts in our mouth. Their naan were crispy on the sides and soft in the center. Spice level in goat curry, butter chicken and matter paneer was on point. We loved our time and enjoyed their food to the fullest. They made lemon drops ( Apple, cranberry, mango and orange lol). They actually were so good. Last picture tells our story. Do not think again before considering this place for your get- togethers.

This review pertains to dinner on January 29, 2024, at approximately 6:15 PM. I have been eating at India Oven at all locations for several years (Natomas, Elk Grove, Citrus Heights, and El Dorado Hills). Overall, El Dorado Hills was always the premier location in terms of food quality and service, but I live adjacent to the Elk Grove location and eat there approximately two times a month.I have noticed that the portions have been particularly reduced. As an example, I noticed that the take out containers are 1/4 to 1/3 the dine-in portion. To avoid that issue, I started eating inside. Tonight, I ordered two simple dishes including a vegetable dish called "aloo gobi" or potatoes with cauliflower. The portion looked like a reduced lunch portion.A server never asked us how our food was after the food came to the table. I had to walk to the host desk to pay the bill. No itemized receipt was provided just a total. I relayed to the on-site apparent manager that the portions were exceedingly qualified with our aloo (potato) dish having only five potatoes. It was not sufficient for one person and this type of dish is usually enough to share. I further explained that a server never came to the table after the initial food drop off and that I had to walk to the host stand to pay. The manager was mute in response. I was still there with an opportunity to cure or address the situation. There was simply no response and the manager just mumbled something and handed me my credit card. The level of incompetence and lack of basic customer service is striking. The portions encourage a new Indian restaurant to open in Elk Grove that has a nice presentation, quality food, and competent service.It is a stereotype of Indian restaurants that regardless of the venue or food quality, service is always lacking. Here, India Oven Elk Grove has apparently taken a lack of service to a new level-they make no effort and do not have competent staff.I hope the owners read this and realize that portioning 1/4 of an appropriate amount will lead to one outcome-closure, people will not return.So, please let us have some Yelp democracy, and if you have a similar experience please post your picture of the portion through the end of February 2025. Hopefully, management will read this and adjust.If people keep posting pictures after February 2025, I would just consider avoiding this restaurant. I have no pecuniary interest in the restaurant industry and hope this location will pivot and exceed expectations in the future.

One of the best Indian cuisine in Elk Grove. I was first introduced to Indian cuisine when I visited my aunt in Seattle. I've been searching and trying out different Indian restaurants in Elk Grove. By far this is the best place I've been. Everything is really good, ambiance is nice. They have booths and a big table on the side to accommodate large parties. Got to try this if you're in the area. My favorites are the butter chicken, chicken masala, and the garlic nann.

Nice spot! Out visiting a friend and we stopped for lunch. Enjoyed the naan and both dishes - we shared. Friendly service. I can imagine it's a good night spot. There's a patio and cute bar area. I'll be back next time I'm in the area.

I've tried many different Indian restaurants and this is the best and definitely above the rest. All the dishes are not greasy and you can taste the food smells fresh and taste fresh. Plus, the staff is friendly and the owner is there greeting you and checking in with you. Highly recommended!

Service is always great! Food is always amazing!!! Usually no wait time for a table in and out in about 45 minutes- especially during holiday time this is important! Plenty of food for two with leftovers for the next day! Paid less than $60 for a fine dinning experience!

Been thinking about coming back since my last visit a few weeks ago. I found myself back in Elk Grove and back here. This time we tried the Pesto Salmon and the Pesto Goat Cheese Naan Bread. We also got the shrimp korma again because we loved it so much! The Pesto Goat Cheese Naan was so good! I love goat cheese and it went SO well with the pesto. The Salmon was cooked perfectly and had a really delicious fresh tasting pesto sauce. Our meal also came with Basmati rice which tastes great in all of the sauces. The herbs and spices come out in each dish and blend very well together! Another great meal!
