Amber India Los Altos is where our story began — a beloved destination blending timeless North Indian recipes with the relaxed charm of the Peninsula. Set in a hacienda-style space on El Camino Real, this flagship location embodies decades of culinary craftsmanship and hospitality. Join us to experience the restaurant that first introduced Amber India's renowned cuisine to the Bay Area.
30 years ago, Vijay Bist opened his flagship restaurant, Amber India, in Mountain View, California. After years of studying and training across the world in the field of hospitality, he decided to act upon his immense passion for Indian Cuisine and the rest, as they say, is history.
Just seven weeks after opening Amber India, it was awarded Best Indian Restaurant in the Bay Area by the Chronicle. Since then, it has continued to receive numerous accolades and awards.
After 20 years at the flagship location, Amber India moved across the street to a bigger location in Los Altos. Now located in a hacienda-style building, it features a brightly lit dining room, a serene patio, a lavish banquet room, a modern lounge, and an elegant private event room. The restaurant has a relaxed ambiance and decor that is influenced by traditional Indian artwork.
Amber India serves authentic North Indian food that explores Mughlai cuisine and replicates flavors from traditional cooking techniques like using the tandoor. Our menu has an extensive selection of both vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes and you can also enjoy an exceptional selection of traditional Indian drinks as well as cocktails, beer, and wine.
It is because of Amber India's dedicated team that it has continued to maintain its originality and consistency. Still considered one of the best Indian restaurants in the area, rich flavors, and exceptional hospitality have made Amber India a Bay Area legend for over 30 years.
Amber India Los Altos has been recognized among the Bay Area's finest Indian dining destinations for over two decades. With numerous culinary awards and a loyal following, it remains a cherished part of the community's dining scene. Every visit honors that legacy of excellence.
Explore an inspired menu of North Indian favorites alongside curated wines and handcrafted cocktails. From tender kebabs to slow-simmered curries, each dish pairs beautifully with our beverage selection. Ask our servers for recommendations to complement your meal perfectly.
Our private rooms and shaded patio offer the perfect setting for celebrations or quiet evenings under the stars. Whether hosting a dinner party or romantic night out, Amber India Los Altos delivers an experience that's both personal and memorable.
