Amber Indian - San Jose

I recently dined at a lovely Indian restaurant located in Santana Row. While it is on the pricier side, the food quality is excellent. We sampled the vegan samosas, lentil patties, and two vegan main dishes, all of which were superb. Despite not being a fan of okra, I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious it was. I highly recommend dining here! Our waiter was polite, accommodating, and well-versed in the vegan options available.

I have had wonderful experiences at this restaurant with a server who is very attentive and accommodating to my vegan diet. During one visit, my partner ordered an appetizer that was not vegan, but the server thoughtfully had the kitchen put the yogurt sauce on the side so that we could still share. On another visit, the server even brought me some vegan chips to snack on while my partner enjoyed their appetizer. The staff here is incredibly kind and goes above and beyond to make sure all guests have a great dining experience.

I was looking for a special birthday spot that caters to vegan and satisfies my meat eating family this proved to be the perfect spot! We ordered 5 dishes, 3 of which were vegan. Everyone loved everything though we all agreed the Cauliflower Cashew Bezule was by far the winner. The vegan channa masala dish and asparagus and potato dish were pretty good too. I love that they star all the vegan dishes so it's super clear what my options are. The only bummer is they don't offer any vegan naan, just a whole wheat roti (which reminds me of a pita) at other restaurants I was offered plain naan without ghee. I will definitely come back!!

We visit Amber India for special occasions because their dishes are a bit pricey, but it's always a fantastic experience. They offer a great selection of vegan options, clearly labeled on the menu, such as potato samosas and roti. My favorite dish is the Cauliflower Cashew Bezule, which is vegan and incredibly tasty. It has a rich and creamy flavor, reminiscent of a dairy dish thanks to the magic of cashews. It's like an Indian version of Mac and Cheese, with cauliflower standing in for the "Mac" and cashew sauce for the "Cheese." This restaurant is perfect for a fine dining experience in Santana Row that everyone will enjoy. The only drawback is that it's close to Veggie Grill, making me less likely to choose it, but the food is a refreshing change from the American comfort food at Veggie Grill.

That is a very beautiful Indian restaurant. the hotel is located in santana row, it is quite expensive, but the quality of the food is good. we tried the vegan samosas, the linsenpatties and the two vegan main dishes- they were great! I am really not a fan of okra, but that was absolutely mouthwater! highly recommended! our waiter was very polite, courtesy and knowledgeable about the vegan options.
