Been visiting this place since couple of years from now. best jalebi and samosa. I would definitely recommend this place for jalebi if you want as a snack or as a part of a big order for a party or function.

I love there food especially the samosa with there chutneys. the customer service is always fantastic. i also had there sweets and as always it’s amazing. they do serve a combo plate which we got which came with curry chicken(a little spicy), rice and a vegetable(I got the Cauliflower). And a flat tortilla. Sooo yummy. I recommend this resturant and I will definitely will be back.

Well well if your a vegetarian and your on a budget i suggest you come check this place out! I don’t know why i am sharing my secret spot but i think i must love y’all and sharing is loving. Well i like coming here because the vegetarian plates are pretty awesome and tasty. The last couple visits i come have come here for the number 1 plate combo. This is hot it works… It comes with basmati rice, veggie of the day which you get to choose from the hot food selection. Comes with a scoop of lentils in curry as well. A roti which is baked wheat bread or Puri which is deep fried in oil wheat bread and this one is my fav ! I have gotten the eggplant and potatoes in curry which was quite tasty and the texture is creamy and melts in the mouth. Goes well with basmati rice and puri bread. The last few times i was hooked on to the Curry tofu and peas with rice! Tofu really fills one up and last me the hole day where I’m not really hungry and tend to eat lighter at night. I have gotten the meat one as well which was curry chicken where the flavors were similar to the vegetarian dishes but i prefer vegetarian plate over the meat combo. Difference between the breads roti and puri Roti is a bit dryer in my opinion, but it is more healthier. Reminds me of a wheat flat pita bread or tortilla which is wrapped in a foil paper and its steaming hot! Puri is a bit more moist and its a bit chewier. It is dipped in the oil according to what they say. It is a bit more oily but its delicious. The texture is great and chewy which i really like. Goes well with the curry lentils because they love to keep it saucy and your bag will leak out yellow curry. Desserts and Pastry No problem, if you want to find an authentic display case filled with authentic mysterious indian treats, here is the place which carries it. Lots of them are made with nuts such as pistachios. They have over 15 kinds which is for sure. Lots of different colors as well. They sell them by lbs, basically after a few times i have observed people buying one piece of each kind to figure which one is there favorite. I got the green pistachio one and i loved it with my Starbucks coffee. Hint hint: Don’t expect a veggie combo plate on tuesday because they code early At 5pm. They don’t serve combo plates but they do serve little snackies such as samosas and desserts. The day i came here i just got 2 samosas with curry split peas on top of it and kept it so saucy that it was crisp when i got home. Then they topped it off with raw onions and red sweet sauce and green salsa sauce as well. Flavorful and quite filling snacky! All for 2.99! just beware of the dungeon dragon raw onion breath! Overall this place do dine ins and they have quite a bit of seats. Most of the tables are booths. parking is spacious and quick! I will come here just for the veggie combo plate which i love and its a bomb arse deal in my opinion. If i feel extra hungry, i will just add a piece of veggie samosas which is .85 each. Anyways danke for reading and Unilocal on!

We were going to the Indian grocery store nearby when I found Samosa Garden on Unilocal.We decided to stop by and check out the samosas. Boyfriend got samosa with channa and it was pretty good– 2 big samosas with lots of toppings. Pretty good deal for $ 3. I’d get the samosa again if I was in the area. We also got some jalebi that was very good(and super cheap-$ 1 for 5 or 6 pieces). Here’s where things started going downhill though– they also had chaats and I couldn’t resist getting some sev puri. I was pretty disappointed in my food. First of all, it wasn’t made correctly(no actual papri), potatoes tasted like they were on their way to going bad, and the chutneys were pretty bad too(the tamarind chutney was bright pink and watery and the green chutney was just ok). Of course, my standards for Indian food are pretty high, but this was pretty bad. There seemed to be a lunch Thali option for $ 4-$ 5 which is pretty cheap and would probably fill you up. They still had their buffet food out and none of it looked mind blowing. Overall, great samosas and jalebis for Rey good prices. Don’t try the chaats though, you will be disappointed.

I went in and bought mixed sweets for 6.99 lb. The guy charged me 5.95 for .67 lbs. The guy clearly doesn’t know how to do math. .67×6.99 = 4.68. It’s that easy. Get a calculator. Sweets are really good. When you come and order sweets just get a full pound so you don’t get overcharged.

First time being here and it smells good! The lady who helped me was nice and gave lots of samples! Everything was delicious! Mango lassi was on point! Love the spice in some of the food I ate!

This might be cheap snack place but when it comes to getting sweats stay away. Portion are rather small. Family run place so don’t expect much if you are looking for customer service or place being clean. Now special commenting on Jalebi’s I have never seen such things what they have their in my life, so thin that it ruins the whole taste. I was there with a friend to order Jalebi’s on Wednesday to place an order for Sunday, we were told they are sold out and waiting list is long. So we were unable to place an order. So glad that we couldn’t place an order as it would’ve just made us look bad the event, people would’ve laughed at us. Food portion are rather small.

Authentic Indian food. We love this little gem! Their portions are great as well as the price! Being a family of vegetarians, we have definitely found our Indian fix! The woman who helps us, is absolutely amazing! She’s very friendly, & informative. I love how most things are already prepared and we can pick up and go home to eat immediately!

It was the worst service I have ever because you don’t ever Yell at customer The lady told me to get out I call in for my order and she said you can come they have a lot of Samosa When I got there the lady in front of me took bought a Samosa . And she said you have to wait for a 10 minute the reason why I call into my order is because I have only limited time to wait doing lunch and I wanted to order ahead And that all she did is give me add it to the nice lady in front of me saying that she will give me five since I never been there before And then I have to get change from the owner and the owner throwdown money back to me and I said that is not very nice of you and she just told me get out get out and get out

Samosa Garden has the best samosas in town! They are my go to place for Indian food. The food is so flavorful and affordable as well. We love their Samosa Tikki Channa, they’re to die for!

The food is ok here but half the time they don’t make items from their menu and you are limited to the items under the hot lamp. I wish they would be more consistent with their food and service. Service depends on the day and who you is taking your order.

What a great unexpected find. The price and food is awesome and the atmosphere is very casual. There was so much flavor in my chicken and lentils. I think I said«mmmm» and«this is sooo good» a gazillions times. The girl at the counter was nice enough to bring my friend and I a samosa, since we had never eaten one before. One after the other, the kitchen was cranking out samosas, with Togo orders leaving by the box full. The samosa had a hot kick to it which I liked and it’s sauces… So good! One sweet and the other had a perfect balance of cilantro & onion, similar to a salsa, but without the tomato. I will be return!; P

The restaurant is more like an express restaurant. I eat here often since its cheap and have express service. The Indian sweets that you get there are definitely worth it. Their motichur ladoos are the best I have had so far(including bay area). I agree with a lot of reviews that the food(other than sweets/desserts) is more home-style cooked. So overall I recommend this restaurant if you want to buy Indian sweets !!!

I really enjoy this place. It’s my go to spot when I want good food on a budget. Their prices are very reasonable, and portions are generous. Their chutney isn’t the typical texture, but it’s still tasty. The staff are always friendly. My only critique and reasons for not giving this place 5 stars is they lack vegetable varieties, and a couple of times I have waited several minutes for someone to come from the back to greet me and take my order.

I was not expecting this place to be an express restaurant, so when my group walked in thinking we’d sit down and get menus we quickly realised we were wrong. They had very basic selections but their prices are so great – I doubt anyone will pay more than 7 dollars for a huge meal. They had some meat selections(I think only chicken curry?) and we wanted chicken tikka masala so we left – but not before trying one(ok, a few) of their samosa. For 85cents it was a GREAT deal, probably one of the best samosas I’ve ever had. The two dipping sauces were perfect compliments as well. I also tried their potato pancake – not a huge fan given how great their samosa tasted, but nothing to complain about – and one of their carrot candy thingys. Everything was under 1 dollar and I paid 2 something for the little carrot candy, potato pancake, and samosa. They charge 50 cents for every card transaction but their prices are so low that it doesn’t really make that much of a different. Excellent service from the ladies working up at the counter. Although I might not be back due to the fact that I’m not from the area, it’s a great place to stop for. This is a truly authentic hole in the wall, family establishment.

For genuine homemade Punjabi cooking, this is the place. For anyone who isn’t used to having homemade Indian food and you visit those Indian restaurants that serve the average Joe, you’ve been ripped off. This place is an fine example of the exquisite taste of Punjabi food. All others are pretenders. My mother would be proud of this place. The only gripe is that they don’t advertise and therefore the mainstream population of Sacramento haven’t got a clue on what real Indian cooking taste like. Oh, for you who like your restaurants with chandeliers and white table cloths, this place isn’t for you.

This place is amazing for its Samosa and Chat, I’ve always frequented it on several occasions for both office pot-lucks and/or home gatherings. Hands down one of the best samosa place in sactown.

I have a feeling I’ll be frequenting this location much more from now on. My sis just opened a nail shop next door so I visited Samosa Garden today for the first time. The girl at the front was very patient and helpful and they even tried to give us a box of mixed Indian sweets for free! Of course, my sister refused and instead paid them for it anyways but the act of generosity have earned them a long term customer for sure. That being said, I tried their samosas and #2 vegetable combo plate along with the sweets. I personally loved both and it’s darn inexpensive too. Will be back to try all their other food. :)

I have to give 5 stars for their customer service and the deliciousness of their samosas. I have been coming here for years after having tried their samosas at a friend’s party, and I don’t know why I haven’t written a review earlier, but as I lay here at 4:30am thinking about the menu for my son’s 1st birthday party I thought, «OMG what about the samosas!!!» These are a must-have at any party I host. I oftentimes bring these as my potluck dish as well. Every time I call I am ordering anywhere from 25 to 150 samosas and they have them for me ONTIME and HOT with a smile. There were a couple times, one woman in particular, will hand me a samosa to munch on while I wait as they add their final touches to my to-go order… YUM! One of the best parts about their samosas is that they are BIG! This is plus when you are trying to fill stomach. If you a have guest that eat like a bird, then you may want to think about cutting some in half just to be sure they don’t go to waste; your guest can always go back for more. Another plus is that they are vegetarian! With so many people becoming more health and animal-conscious-thus moving away from animal products and bi-products-this is the perfect appetizer(although I can eat these as my main dish)! The filling has just the right amount of spice, but mild enough for adults to try for their first time and for kids to enjoy. They give you the traditional chutneys: Imli ki(tamarind) and my favorite is the pudina(mint). Both are delicious!!! These are a must try item! I have to apologize for not being able to add anything about any of their other food given I have not tried it, but if I do I will be sure to add to this review.
