This place was Amazing.Order the Nagi chutney if you can handle spice a bit. You will not be disappointed. We mixed it with everything.Every review talks about Maska Paneer and for good reason. Maska Paneer with Jeera rice combo was hands down the winner.For drinks, highly recommend the non alcoholic drink Kaala Khatta Soda. For alcoholic drinks, we tried Mumtaz which was good but couldn't compare to the soda.They have a rotating menu. We also tried the Patra and the Drunken paani puri(with gin). They were nice.We sat at the bar and had a great time talking to the nicest bartenders. Their hospitality added a lot to our experience.Vegetarian options: There are no meat options.
One of the best meals in sf. Loved the gin cocktails and the fu covid drink. Everything was super tasty - classic Indian with a twist. The paneer and smoked eggplant dishes were faves.
Amazing flavor combinations and colorful luxurious vegetarian and vegan dishes. The menu covers the vibe of four different cities in India with a creative take on some Indian classics. Go with a group so you can taste a lot of the dishes. Can be spicy so beware if you can’t handle spicy. Four people ate and got super full for about $65 a person we got 8 dishes plus rice and naan and had leftovers.
The food is AMAZING and our waiter, Christian, was fantastic — his recommendations were perfect, but I doubt you could go wrong with anything on the menu. He said this food would change our life and he was right. Seriously a really special place!
The food was so good!! Everything is vegetarian, including some "impossible meat" options. The menu is set up in four sections based on cities that influenced the chef's life. Everything we ordered was really good. The Drunken pani puri, Mango salad, dahi wada, and "who killed the lamb" were big hits. We also really liked the saffron cheesecake with blueberry compote. In terms of portions, I'd probably suggest ~1 smaller plate and ~1 larger dish per person
More than amazing contemporary Indian food at Besharam. Thanks to an all vegetarian menu as well. We had Mini Radish kachoris, Paresh’s paratas and Besharam samosas as starters . Although the portion was like a Tapas, taste and quality not compromised. Our entrees were daal dhokli , kebabs and Kichdi . Kebabs were plantbased but had a meaty texture. Khichdi was flavorful and daal dokli was to die for . Cocktails were ok . Mawa beignets was a brilliant dessert creation . Ambience was vibrant . Food was light , humble and non greasy . Good service .Wish Chef Patel can open another location in Palo Alto area serving South Bay customers .
Everything we tried here was absolutely delicious
Every dish is amazingly well presented and delicious, even the desserts!
Very interesting menu and dishes were pretty good. Not sure if it's worth the price point. Also want to note for you meat lovers that this restaurant doesn't use meat in any dishes.
Amazing food and ambiance! A must visit spot for everyone in SF. The food broken down into 4 different regions from Gujrat is an excellent thought.
