India Oven

Anyone who loves Indian food that actually has FLAVOR needs to get in here!The interior decor is more upscale as apposed to so many that are kind of like a glorified cafeteria setting. This is a clean, warm, inviting and comfortable environment. The typical person dining out these days seems to think "dress as terribly as you can"... Here you can actually dress appropriately and feel good about where you are dining. Check out the pics, it's nice inside.Our host and the servers were all spot on the entire evening, being both attentive and friendly. The staff was dressed cleanly and professionally.We requested our dishes be 'spicy' as that's how we roll around here. For dinner we had the chicken vindaloo, lamb Rogan Josh, Paneer saagwala, basmati rice and some garlic naan. All of the dishes were so incredibly full of flavor and just the right amount of heat. Great depth and quality in all of them. If I were to make any kind of criticism, it would be that the garlic naan was a little too oily. But, we didn't come here just for the naan. Of all the Indian restaurants in NorCal, we have tried thus far, we have to agree that this is our top spot now, and we will be coming back many times going forward. Come for the service and atmosphere, and experience the excellent food!

We were seated immediately in a booth and offered to have their buffet or menu. We opted for the menu. I believe they said the buffet was $35 a person. The restaurant is pretty. They poured water in glasses when we sat down and there was something floating in the cups so we didn't drink them. My husband ordered a beer and I had the Pinot Grigio. My wine glass had crusty food all over it so I had to clean it before drinking from it - gross but it seems it was from the dishwasher. Drank my wine just fine. Now the food. YUM. To start, we tried the pani puri- my husband is a huge fan so this was a must try for us as I have never had it before. My first experience was great. I thought the flavor was delicious. My husband said it was pretty good however the shells on these pani puri are thicker than other places he has had before and he prefers the thinner shells. It came with a kind of green mint sauce, it was good! ...what a fun experience! Then we ordered the lamb tikka masala, rice and garlic naan. This naan - oh my. It was thin and had a slight char to the bottom side (which we LOVED) and the garlic wasn't overpowering but delicious. The rice was perfectly fluffy - I have never seen such perfect rice before and it had peas in it. The lamb tikka masala- wow! Great flavor! All three together were perfect. We also added some of the mint sauce from the pani puri. Even more yum!! We'll be back! The food is worth coming back!

My family and I were here the other weekend for the lunch buffet and we couldn't be more impressed. We received a text message notification from the restaurant informing us that they were having half off buffet and we couldn't say no. There options for the lunch buffet included all sorts of yummy options including fresh salad, fruit (pineapple, melon), sauces/chutneys, fish pakora, zucchini pakora, samosa, chili paneer, rice, fish curry, spinach saag paneer, tandoori chicken, chicken masala, lamb curry, regular basmati rice and seasoned rice, chick pea masala, broccoli salad, and two different desserts.The service was great, the restaurant well maintained and lots of care and attendance to our big party. The bathrooms in the back (only two) - which can get busy! Lots of parking in the area! Overall- would come back again!

First time at India oven and it was delicious! My new favorite Indian spot in the area. I started off with some vegetarian samosas which were just okay but the goat curry and butter chicken were absolutely delicious! I'm from the bay area and I've got pretty high standards for Indian cuisine and the goat curry really shocked me how tender the goat was. Butter chicken was so good with rice and with their naan. Highly recommend getting their bread basket so you can try the different types of naan. I couldn't decide between the garlic and onion ones as they were both delicious. Their naan was perfectly crispy, thin and flavorful.

Very enjoyable experience. Great atmosphere and service. Food was very good. Will be going again.

This is hands down our favorite spot for Indian cuisine! The staff is incredibly friendly, the food is absolutely mouthwatering, and the interior is stunning--it's an experience you just can't miss! I wholeheartedly recommend it!

I am surprised that this Indian restaurant is conveniently located right in Roseville mall. It's tough to get a parking spot near by but for a good food, I will patiently park! The service is fast. The food is excellent and the ambiance is cozy and warm. I like this restaurant and highly recommend it to everyone.

Try their backyard vegetable Poriyal as a side item with any of their curries and rice

We talked forEVER about trying this place and we are very glad we finally did so.Stopped in mid-afternoon one weekday and caught the end of their $19.99 lunch buffet. This gave each of us a chance to try a variety of their dishes.From chicken tikka to mango chicken, veggie biryani, yellow dal and more, we are definitely coming back again, and again.Nice selection of regional craft beers that all go well with flavorful Indian cuisine.
