This is a gem of an Indian restaurant. The Spinach Potato Kofta is my favorite dish by far. The potato dumplings were rich and amazing. The ground lamb and cheese kabab had a lovely flavor and was delicious with the three sauces. The spicy sauce is super spicy! The restaurant is very cozy and decorated to enhance your experience. Love it, will be back regularly!

As soon as I took my first bite I was instantly transported to the streets of India. Each dish tastes homemade. The chicken biryani is the best I’ve had in any Indian restaurant in the Sacramento area. Honestly, I haven’t found a better Indian restaurant anywhere else in Northern California. All the others have been terrible and don’t even come close to the authenticity of this Indian restaurant. Even the service was top notch. Our server was the manager (I believe his name was Sagar) and he was a very nice guy. I will definitely be coming back to try more authentic Indian delights

Great place to sit and have a meal, weather its in or outside. And the Chicken Tikka masala is very tasty and has real chicken chunks (i get mild). And the basil cheese Naan is to dieeee for. Or any of them to be honest. Definitely recommend

Amazing Indian food! This is a unique place with a smaller menu of amazingly well prepared dishes. I strongly recommend the avocado Chaat!! The apricot fig salad was incredible! UPDATE or second review: I don't write reviews every time we go somewhere, but this place is so good I need to update the review every so often. So we had not been here in a while just busy and it's a little bit out of our way, but the good is really good so we had time to run over here later in the evening about an hour before closing. I can't tell you enough that everything I've tried is just amazingly delicious. I have been wanting to try to mixed vegetable coconut curry, so today I finally ordered it. I'm going to tell you to order the next time you go there it's amazing. The coconut curry sauce was delectable I've never had a sauce quite like this one it was just amazing, the coconut was obvious but not over powering, and the other flavors in the sauce mixed well and complimented each other. I was amazed at the crispness of the vegetables, they were absolutely the perfect texture cooked just enough, but still crunchy. I will tell you no matter what you order it will be delicious, but do yourself a favor and try this mixed vegetable coconut curry!

What a wonderful experience! The space is cute and cozy, the music subtle and the decor tasteful. The staff was not only friendly and welcoming, but also helpful. To start, we ordered the sweet and sour cauliflower appetizer. The cauliflower had a nice crunch and the sauce was both sweet and tangy. We followed that with garlic and cilantro naan, which was crispy and delicious. We dipped it in the sauce from our two entrees, the spinach potato kofta and lamb vindaloo. The kofta had little dumplings made from mashed spinach and potato. The red sauce was tangy and just hot enough (we ordered medium heat) the cheese in the sauce offered a nice creamy texture. The vindaloo was delicious, with the lamb flavor infused throughout the rich brown sauce. We ordered the basmati rice to accompany our entrees. We will definitely be coming back here.

Just after our first visit, it became one of our favorite Indian places in the area! Stepping in the first thing we noticed is the decor and it's really well done; from the God pictures on the wall, to the table cloth to the wall painting and the other small knick knacks. Absolutely loved how they have done up the place and a lot of the elements brought up the memories of my childhood home. It's tasteful without being stereotypical or tacky. Coming to the food, we ordered: black garam daal, spinach kofta, garlic coriander Naan and onion naan and really enjoyed it. It was perfectly flavourful and we'll definitely be going back to try other items on the menu. But the thing that stood out the most and will keep us going again and again is the warmth and hospitality of the staff and management, which is reflected in all their customer interactions. If you're looking for good Indian food in the Folsom/Roseville/Granite Bay area, this place should definitely be on your list!

Avatar Indian Bistro is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Indian cuisine. The chicken tikka is a standout dish, perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. The chicken biryani is also a must-try, with fragrant rice and tender pieces of chicken. The restaurant's atmosphere is cozy and inviting, and the service is attentive and friendly. Overall, Avatar Indian Bistro is a top-notch dining destination for lovers of Indian food.

I moved to Granite Bay a few months ago from Fremont, CA. I definitely miss the diversity of restaurants that could be found in the SF Bay Area. I was pleased to find Avatar's close by, and I enjoy the taste of their dishes. Their cauliflower appetizer is delicious and the curry dishes hit the spot. I appreciate that their menu features gluten free and vegetarian options for those who have dietary restrictions. My husband and I have mostly gone there during lunch hours, so we have not experienced the service at a busy time. I've found the staff to be consistently thoughtful and polite, and I am sure that the staff available works as efficiently as possible to serve those dining there, both during low-key and fast-paced times of the day.

They were very friendly and accommodating of our toddler. Everything came out mild, which was edible for our 2 yr old. My hus said the Makhani Paneer was okay. The chicken biryani was very saucy, but still delicious. We got Roti, Makhani Paneer, Chicken Biryani, and Mango Lassi. Our bill w tip came out to ~$50. Good value for the portions!

Outstanding authenticity in flavors, Naan is amazingly perfect, and the Kashmiri Lamb is very tender, spiced just right(I ordered spicy) and portions were just right. I recommend them, they pay attention to detail in every aspect. Service is also outstanding. Great back ground music playing(not TV with Indian songs). Overall 5 star experience!
