Chutney - San Francisco
  • Cuisines: Indian
    • User Rating  

  • Description:

    • With an open kitchen and long windows overlooking Jones Street, this clean, uncluttered eatery offers an alternative to the grittier Indian and Pakistani restaurants in the area. Still, the atmosphere is decidedly no-frills. Diners order at the counter, take a number and pick up their food when the number is called.

      Vegetarians and meat lovers will be equally delighted with the crowd-pleasing menu. Start with doughy naan bread, stuffed with spicy ground beef, chunky potatoes or chopped onions. For a main dish, try chicken korma curry, featuring tender chicken cooked in mild curry sauce with yogurt and spices. Bengun bharta, a mix of onion, tomatoes and spices with mesquite-smoked eggplant, is also a good find. Tandoori fans will enjoy meaty lamb boti, marinated in a complex blend of warm spices. Palak paneer is a decadent dish of cooked spinach and airy cubes of homemade cheese.

      affordable delicious Indian/Paki food

    • This is a delicious cafeteria-style Indian/Paki restaurant in a not-so-safe area of San Fran. Great for a quick lunch/takeout and excellent for vegetarians. Try the lentil and eggplant...
