Rangoli India Restaurant at 3695 Union Ave, San Jose, CA 95124 has been around for 25 years and was one of my favorite hot spots prior to Covid. Recently, I went and had their buffet and was amazed at the selection of food. Tandoori Chicken, Tikka Masala, Egg Curry, Aloo Cabbage, Padeer Kalai Wala, and the list goes on. I must say the server was very attentive and brought me fresh hot Naan bread. The dessert selection was 2 of my favorites; Mango Pudding and Rice Pudding. I ordered Chai Tea (extra cost) which was amazing. Everything I ate was perfectly cooked and was delicious. Now I found the restaurant to be very clean with a good separation of tables. The carpet had been recently vacuumed and each buffet item had its own seperate warmer with a lid. However, it is an older restaurant and some of the tables and hallways really showed their wear. One issue that seems to show up in other reviews was the staff is not friendly. I did not experience that. From the moment I arrived I was greeted by a young lady, and the server was very polite and attentive. Yes, I was thanked when I paid the bill. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this restaurant! Be hungry if you decide to try the buffet.

The health standards here may be questionable according to other reviews but the food here is quite a standout for Northern Indian cuisine I went with the Shahi Paneer and found it to be spiced well and the curry to be quite good, ordered extra spicy and was not disappointed. The Malai Kofta was rich but the actual koftas themselves could have been a bit better cooked. The naan was cooked very well and wasn't too bready Would add this to the roster

Well butter my naan and drown me in some butter chicken curry, I can't believe I haven't written a yelp review for Rangoli. This Indian restaurant used to have a buffet before I almost ran them out of business by taking "all you can eat" too literally. Just kidding it was COVID. But now from the comfort of my bed I can order uber eats and have a feast of the same. My go to is the chicken tikka masala (spicy) for $18 and I get through maybe 2/3 of it before I get full and keep a treat for later. They splash around 10 large boneless chunks of tandoori chicken in the large puddle of flavorful curry. Huge portions and delicious, if you're trying to figure out where the butter chicken is, this is it. Did I mention they give you a box of rice for free as well? But wait, there's more! I decided to step out of my butter chicken comfort zone and try the lamb korma. I may be as white as the rice they include, but my taste buds have been enlightened. I also tried the chicken vindaloo, or should I say vindaWOO. This one has potatoes and is a bit more bitter, if you're into that. 5 naans out of 5.
