Delicious food and good service. ¿Que más? Their food works well as take out -- very convenient!

This Indian restaurant deserves to be known much more widely! Had an outstanding lunch here this week. I'm from India, and have high standards for Indian food. Quite bummed out that it took me 11 years to discover this amazing restaurant. But there are so many Indian restaurants in East Bay, and this had just never crossed my radar as a place to try. First of all, the menu is outstanding. There are dishes that you will never find on the menu of any other restaurant. We had Chicken Paratha Fold, Masaledar Bharwa Karela (bitter melon; literally as good as my mom's, but it's an acquired taste), and Kori Gasi (a south Indian chicken curry). Everything was outstanding (except for one small thing: the paratha did not appear to be fresh). I loved the attention to detail in everything else. They have the very best green chutney (cilantro-mint) and red chutney (tamarind) I have ever eaten in any Indian restaurant in the US (and I've lived here more than 40 years). Portions are a good size, and the two of us were completely full. You don't have to pay extra for rice, like you have to do almost everywhere else. The entrees come with rice and daal and a small serving of salad (some very nice lettuce drizzled with green chutney; sensational!). Their house wine is only $5 a glass. Nowhere else in the Bay Area can you get a glass of wine for that price; a very generous pour too. Our dessert was Phirni (a very traditional rice-flour pudding). That was only $4 for a very generous serving. Overall, the food was really delicious, the portions generous, the prices very reasonable. Service was great. We will definitely be back again and again. Still have to try all those unique and delicious-sounding breads!

Simply the best Indian restaurant in the east bay and an iconic Berkeley destination for 30yrs. Better naan than what you'll find in India itself -- quite possibly the best naan in the world!

I needed to stop and take a minute to review breads of India. I've been coming here for over 20 years at least. My godmother used to get me naan from here before I knew what Indian food really was. Two nights ago I ordered the tikka chicken masala The vegetarian briyani And the garlic naan as well as the daal tadka. Everything came really cold or at room temp so we had to reheat it. But anyone that knows real Indian food knows that things aren't usually made to order. They could heat it a bit more however. The briyani was some of the best. A little light on paneer two pieces but they used taro and lotus root and caramelized onions and really tasty veggies. The tikka was also delicious not creamy as much as it was a delicate spicy sauce that wasn't super heavy. The tadka was perfectly spiced and the beans were cooked and soaked perfectly not hard just perfect. The naan was fluffy and the samosas. They were so delicately flavored and not greasy. Great food. A little cold but great!!

I stoped by for lunch alone and had a very good time. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. The food I was incredible and the best naan ever! I had the Chicken Tikka Marsala it was so good!

FLAVORFUL INDIAN DISHES & SELECTION OF NAAN. I happened to drive by this place every day and decided it was time to try it out, and I'm glad I was able to get some of their authentic Indian food! AMBIANCE: 3/5. There is only street parking available and may be quite limited. Small and very intimate interior but with plenty of indoor seating. As soon as you walk in, you'll be greeted and seated by staff. The restaurant has a small cozy, quiet, & peaceful ambiance. SERVICE: 4/5. There was only one main staff who was on the floor, and he was attentive and served us as quickly as he could. FOOD: 4/5. The dishes we got, especially the large garlic naan, were excellent. The spices were a great balance that could accommodate many. The menu could be larger with more diverse options but does describe each dish in a more reader-friendly format. The portions are slightly smaller than I was hoping, but the quality of the dishes is wonderful! OVERALL: 4/5. All-in-all good authentic Indian food with delicious garlic naan!

Delicious food with a menu that changes month to month. The Indian cuisine is so diver and rich it's great to have things other than the typical fare.

There are three (3) things that give my life otherwise devoid of happiness meaning: 1. French toast 2. My smokin hot wife 3. Paneer Curry Breads of India delivers a great paneer vindaloo, delicious naan, and a fine mango lassi. One thing that gives this place an edge of the competition is including the rice with your order, unlike some places (looking at you house of curries in Elmwood). Also, the ambiance on a cold rainy day in their warmly lit small dining room is delightfully cozy. Jesus Christ is this place good! wowweee, not many places hit all four marks of ambiance, taste, price, and portions but Breads of India manages to do it all with flawless effort. The menus have a newspaper look to them which adds to the character Of the detailed food descriptions as if it came from a food column. It was a delightful experience, and me and my husband are planning on becoming regulars. P.s. since we are both lactose intolerant, we don't mind when we both are poopin' up a storm :)
