I had the Lamb Mutter. It was, after careful consideration, the best Indian food i have ever had -- and Ive had some spectacular Indian food. The spice level was perfect, the flavors delightfully balanced, and the presentation flawless. The chai was as good as any Ive had elsewhere, and better than most, with the delightful addition of coming unsweetened, so that i could use my sweetener of choice. The Kashmiri Nan, stuffed with a sweet and flavorful mixture of crushed cashews, pistachios, raisins, and cherries, was also worthy of note. It was sweet enough almost to qualify as a dessert, but not overpowering as an appetizer. The only flaw in the meal (and it was far too minor to affect the overall experience, or detract at all from my heartfelt 5+ stars rating) was the salad. It was simply some fairly bland, undressed vegetables, and failed to impress. But the meal as a whole was very impressive, delicious, delightful, and entirely worth the trip. Eat at Aroma. You will leave satisfied, and glad that you did.

I had an extremely overpriced lunch buffet at this place, just to find a very limited collection of below-average food. I think the target customers are people who have never tasted Indian food, because according to Indian standards, the food was mediocre, at best. There was no dessert or chai-tea, which most Indian restaurants in the Bay Area offer. The soda was extra as well, which other Indian restaurants include in the buffet. The place is structured like a green house, with big glass windows and it got really muggy inside when I visited during the afternoon, and they still didnt turn on the cooling. Their behavior did not seem to indicate that they appreciate receiving business from me. I did not get the value for money. It was a negative experience. With so many good restaurants present in the Bay Area, I am never visiting this place again.

Aroma Indian cuisine is an apparently popular place. There are people at nearly every table, and they all seemed to be there before. For that I wish I knew why. the food was bland. There wasnt one thing there that stood out. The buffet was severely overpriced and the choices were limited. This place I can say, might be better for people without extensive knowledge of Indias aromatic style of cooking. Ironically this place is "uniquely " named Aroma.

It was 8:20pm on a Thursday. Restaurant closes at 9:30pm. There was people inside the restaurant. Customers inside staring at me when I tried to open the door. The door was locked. I was ignored by the workers and none of the customers said anything when I asked for help with the locked door. Idk if its because of the color of my skin or the fact the staff wanted to get off early. I HATED my brief EXPERIENCE there.

Best Tasting and High Quality food. We visited the place on Saturday evening and were greeted warmly by the owner and the host. We wanted mild food without onion and garlic and ordered Panner Tikka Masala along with Navratan Korma. Both the dishes were prepared fresh and had real good taste. Kashmiri Naan Pesto Naan were equally mouth watering. and Highly recommend it

My gf and I enjoy good food and aroma cuisine is a great place. The restaurant was full (always a good sign) but got seated promptly with great service. Food was fresh and delicious. Satinder (the owner) came to our table and had a nice conversation. Shows that she cares for her customers. Give it a try for yourselves, you wont be disappointed

I have been to to dozens of Indian restaurants & at least get to eat Indian food once or more every week at home. The flavors at Aroma are beyond amazing. Have had buffets several times and ate dinners three to four times. Every dish taste different, fresh & aromatic. Service is the best. A must must try for everyone

Dare I say, the best Indian food around. Prompt service, fair pricing and a plethora of amazing dishes are sure to please. Give their various freshly-baked naan flavors a try to top off their wonderful dishes. Seating is a little limited so avoid the busy hours.

I live close to the village, and absolutely LOVE that Aroma is there. They are very friendly (they always remember me and my kids), they are clean, and above all they have excellent food. My favorite happens to be the Malai Kofta. Go there!

We got here just before they closed, and not only was the food marvelous, the service was quick, friendly, and courteous -- even though we were still eating long after they had closed.

Best Indian food restaurant in the USA. Very authentic. Trust me I have ate at all Indian restaurants on my way when I drove from Toronto, Canada to San Francisco, California.

Tasty, but pricey for Indian food. Millions of naan to chose from, just avoid the chili naan (unless you like eating chili powder straight).
