Saroor Indian Cuisine

Love this place. Discovered this gem when I was driving home from the gym — it’s really close to 24 nearby. But besides that, I came on occasion alone, or sometimes with my son, or took some family there (last weekend).The staff is very, VERY patient, kind, and accommodating! I did both lunches and dinner and dinner is simply exquisite! I even got a free salad. Service is lightening fast, every wish fulfilled. They serve the meat/​tikka masala (mild butter chicken) in a cute metal bowl over a candle. Usually not a drop is left after we’re done! It’s soooo good. Lunches are buffet style and they are so busy that they have to keep refilling. So they don’t always have everything right away, but you can just tell them and they bring stuff out. Still, during lunch you can get desert and refills so it’s still kind of nice to sample everything. Spinach is a great dish and tikka masala (buffet style) not as good as during dinner — I like their curry instead during lunch. Also not to be forgotten one of my favorites — the juicy and oh so soft fish pakora!!! Its so much nicer than chicken pakora (on a tough side but my son’s favorite). It’s now one of my go-​to places due to convenience, quality of food (I prefer dinner), and staff. We love coming back. Highly recommended!!!

My husband and my mom in law ordered takeout from this place. I got to taste a few items that they ordered. First my husband said that that was his favorite Indian place so I wanted to try their famous chicken tikka masala with rice. It was absolutely delicious, and my husband described it as «striking the delicate balance between creaminess and spiciness.» Of course they also had garlic nan, and their special potato nan. I absolutely loved garlic nan at this place, I tried many different nans at Indian places but this one was definitely the best! On top of it while my husband and my mom in law waited for their order, they received a complimentary cup of tea. The service was friendly and the food was delicious. Moreover, the prices were very reasonable. End it also provides delivery, I highly recommend this place if you want really good Indian food!

Was in area visiting and this was the closest Indian buffet restaurant. Inside was dark old dirty and dingy. Food labels scattered on top of buffet I ended up with lamb spinach (looked like palak paneer) on my vegetarian plate. WORSE was when i saw the dark waiter scratching his balls with one hand while refilling freshly prepared pakore from a bowl with the other hand. I will not be returning.

We have been to Saroor at least 40 or 50 times over the past 7 years we’ve lived in the East Bay. The food is excellent, the prices are very reasonable, it is clean, and the service is outstanding. I’m not fond of buffets but Saroor Lunch buffet is tasty, filling and a fantastic deal for hungry people on a budget. Saroor is local to us and we are very fond of the place. And parking is SO easy (especially for Walnut Creek).
In fact we are going there today for lunch.
Suggestions: better music, warmer atmosphere (tablecloths instead of glass-​topped tables), add four booths, remodel the bathroom, make the restaurant a little more fun instead of somber.

This used to be our go-​to local indian place despite the sticky tables (and sticky table cloth and sticks to your thighs) and dark, dreary and dated interior. However, last night all our dishes were subpar: the rice (cold, hard), the coconut shrimp curry (shrimp were sparse, fishy, curry bland), tikka masala c

Checked this place out after reading some positive reviews on the food, but we were hesitant about the reviews of the location itself.
I can say that the food is good, large portions and the condition of the place is good enough for us. We ordered Chicken Tikka Masala (they always order it) and I had the Chicken Korma, spicy.
They were satisfied with their’s and I was definitely satisfied with mine. Plenty of chicken and more than enough rice. We also got an order of naan and garlic naan. I tried both and loved dipping them in my delicious sauce.
I couldn’t finish all my rice and I did not each lunch that day so you can tell it was a good amount of food. Spiciness was just at my level and I have been working on my spice tolerance for awhile now (though I’m no expert yet).
This is now my go-​to place for Indian in Walnut Creek.
