Our first visit here brought excitement to try Indo-Chinese fare after hearing enthusiastic reports from friends. We ordered Raj kachori, paneer chili, mocktails, tea, dhai puri, tawa pulao, tawa momos, triple Szechwan fried rice, gobi manchurian, and rasamalai. The starters impressed us. The kachori and dhai puri were excellent; the yogurt added a pleasing texture to the crisp puri, creating a burst of flavor. The paneer chili and vegetable momos stood out as among the finest we have sampled. Few Bay Area spots offer such strong Indo-Chinese quality. The triple Szechwan fried rice and tawa pulao were solid, with the pulao delivering an authentic, smoky character. We finished with a satisfying rasamalai that felt homemade and not overly sweet. My masala chai was soothing and refreshing. Overall, it was a rewarding experience and a recommended vegetarian restaurant.

If consistency and nostalgia had a name it would be Garam Mirchi, there flavours have always been consistent and reminds me of home. This is my 20th visit I guess and I have always left home full and happy. Their schezwan fried rice, chilly paneer dry, schezwan momos and obviously Dal Baati is the best in the Bay Area. I also loved their Raj Kachori. The staff is always super nice.

I’m writing this review as I’m leaving the restaurant. Unfortunately, the Jain Paneer Butter Masala was very disappointing. It tasted overwhelmingly of turmeric and lacked the rich, balanced flavor you would expect from this dish. No one in our party could eat it, and it honestly affected our overall appetite. I hope the restaurant can improve the seasoning and quality of this dish.

We’ve ordered food from Garam Mirchi several times, and it has always been a great experience! The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and delicious. My kids enjoy it too, especially because when we ask for mild, they actually make it mild, which we really appreciate. The quality and taste have always been great, and it has become one of our go-to places for Indian food. Definitely recommend! 😊

Celebrated my husband's birthday dinner here and the food was so good! Fresh and flavorful chaat — the pyaaz kachori chaat and bhel puri were delicious. We also loved the Indo-Chinese spread ( rice and Manchurian). And the drinks were awesome — the Paan Breeze and Lemon Soda were highlights! Good portions, friendly vibe. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
