" If you're looking for a delightful evening filled with excellent Indian food, then Castro Indian is the place! My companion and I shared an array of dishes including a fantastic shrimp curry that had a unique zing to it. I was particularly impressed with how the meals were presented. The service staff made sure our glasses were never empty, which is always a plus. This is truly a gem in the Castro! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you’re looking for a spot that offers truly authentic Indian flavors, Castro Indian Restaurant is the place to be! The butter chicken was rich and creamy, while the saag paneer had the right balance of spices. The atmosphere is nothing short of inviting and cozy, perfect for casual evenings or special occasions. Sure, it's a bit on the pricier side, but the generous portions and quality make it worth every penny! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Castro with some friends, and the energy of the restaurant was contagious! The staff was very accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed. The food came quickly and did not disappoint either! The multitude of options made it hard to choose, but I finally settled on the lamb vindaloo and it was perfectly spicy! Highly recommend!

" The flavors at Castro Indian Restaurant are absolutely spot on! The curries really take you back to the streets of India. My favorite was the paneer tikka masala, it was rich and creamy. The portion sizes were reasonable for the price. I'm also thrilled that they're in touch with local produce which is an added bonus. Overall, a great experience, I highly recommend a visit!

" Amazing experience! The atmosphere is upbeat and fun, with fantastic Bollywood music playing in the background. I ordered the chicken tikka masala and the kebabs, both of which were cooked to perfection. The portions were generous too! I can't stress enough how much I loved every aspect of the meal. Can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" The Castro Indian restaurant has a unique charm of its own! The service was stellar and the food was just a dream. I had the vegetable korma which was delightful and my partner had the butter chicken which he adored. The atmosphere has a vibrant charm, with an excellent blend of music that adds to the experience. I’ll definitely return to enjoy more! " (*Curated Review*)
