Sri Venkateswara Grocery & Kitchen | Indian Supermarket & Cuisine - Pleasanton, California

New Indian grocery store. They have good variety of grocery, snacks, food and nonfood items. Almost you can get everything you need. They provide free tea which was tasting really delicious. They have a kitchen too where they provide breakfast, lunch and dinner. Really nice customer service.

This will be a two-in-one review. We visited the grocery store first. It was clean and well stocked and had all the stuff we were looking for.

The kitchen was interesting. If you buy some stuff at the grocery store, you get coupons for food in the kitchen. We ordered the Paneer Masala Dosa and Dahi Sev Puri. Dosa was decent. The Dahi Sev Puri was a let down. Dahi was too sour. Might now try the food from the kitchen next time I get there.

Started my new position in Pleasanton and I asked my co-worker if she knew about any good Indian food at a friendly budget. She recommended Sri Venkateswara Grocery and Kitchen. Upon arrival, I immediately knew this was a modern and clean spot. It’s up-to-date, spacious, with a calm atmosphere. I was assisted right away at the kitchen with lovely smiles and wonderful customer service from Gayathri and Dimpal. I asked for their recommendation, and yummy-yumm, it did not disappoint!! I will be back for sure! Great place for clean, hot, delicious food at a decent price!

Thali...mist dishes are very sour. Curd quality is good but quantity is less. Desert was vermicelli Payasam that was good.

I bought a pickle bottle from this store, the pickle was all bad, spoiled pickle. I showed picture to manager and 3 other store employees but they said they cannot give the refund because I did not bring the bad pickle bottle back for refund. Who will keep the bottle and bring to store? Aren’t pictures enough. It was a matter for $3.5, did not like the customer service. Not doing grocery shopping at this place again.

We have been to this place twice. The location is quite convenient, especially if you plan to do grocery shopping and grab a bite to eat afterward. During our visits, we tried the dosa, which was good. However, the chutneys didn’t impress me much.

The samosas were a letdown; they were too oily and served cold. The Mysore bonda also fell short of expectations, as it was served cold when we expected it to be hot and crispy.

Overall, I might consider coming back here only when I need to do some shopping in the area, but it's not a top choice for dining.

Exceptional South Indian Cuisine in the Bay Area
We recently had the pleasure of experiencing one of the best South Indian kitchens in the Bay Area, and we were thoroughly impressed. The team's attention to detail, commitment to hygiene, and punctuality made our experience truly exceptional.
We were looking for authentic South Indian breakfast, chapati, and curry catering, and the team exceeded our expectations. They offered multiple options, accommodated our customization requests, and delivered the food on time. The packaging was clean, neat, and convenient.
The food itself was outstanding - flavorful, aromatic, and freshly prepared. We were particularly impressed by the variety of options available, including vegan and gluten-free choices.
Overall, we highly recommend this South Indian kitchen to anyone looking for authentic, delicious, and hassle-free catering services in the Bay Area. Their commitment to quality, hygiene, and customer satisfaction is truly exceptional.

We liked the restaurant experience here. The variety is amazing given how limited the seating space is. A lot of it was takeaways like I observed by sitting there.

Tried the Benne Dosa, Thatte Idli, and their complimentary free coffee.

Benne Dosas are 2 pieces in a plate, and more like plain uttapam in my opinion. The image of Benne Dosa in my mind was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. This was soft on all sides. Taste was good, and very reasonably priced. No issues there, but too much quantity for me. I wanted to try other things also but I was full.

Thatte Idli was awesome. The amount of ghee and podi they give is really generous.

Will surely come again to try other Dosa varieties and appetizers. Haven't shopped at the grocery section yet. Maybe next time!
