Great food and quick service. Everything was hot and fresh even on the grab and go counter. You can also order whatever you want and they’ll make it fresh. Price was good and great staff.

We stopped here while returning back home from Yosmeite, ordered the mix parotha, chai, samosa and papdi chat. Everything was delicious. The chai was made fresh to order, the samosa came in crispy and warm.The highlight for me was the mix parotha, it was amazing, served with white makhan and fresh Dahi, reminded me of my days in Amristsar. Do give it a try if u enjoy Indian food. P.S We got some items for takeout, it was missing the chapati order, it happens I guess.

This is my new favorite Indian food spot in the area! Their food is so good, naan is so tasty and not chewy very fresh. I have zero complaints. The staff is always so kind, other customers as well are so kind any time I go in (which has been a lot lately since I found them). I highly recommend and guarantee you won’t be disappointed with their food! Very grateful for the service and quality of food(:

Thank you Google reviewers for suggesting this restaurant. We were starving on our way to SFO from Yosemite. We were looking for a good Indian restaurant, that's when Sam's kitchen popped up. It had great reviews and we went there with high hopes, and they didn't disappoint us. It's a small little but near setup by a family owned. The owners greeted us with grace. The service was excellent. The food was delivered to us pretty fast. The food was delicious and authentic. The prices were very reasonable. We had a full meal, veg, non veg everything. A little dessert for the road as well. Overall a great experience and will definitely recommend it.

Absolutely loved this place. The food is fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Everything tasted authentic and well-balanced, with generous portions that make it great value for a quick grab-and-go meal. The garlic naan was outstanding, and the curries were rich without being heavy. Service was friendly and efficient, and the overall experience was smooth from order to pickup. Highly recommend Sam’s Kitchen Indian Grab & Go for anyone craving quality Indian food done right. I’ll definitely be coming back.
