Avatar's - Sausalito, California

I was excited to try this hyped restaurant, but unfortunately, the experience didn’t live up to expectations. The prices seemed fair at first, but once I received my portions, I realized they were much smaller than expected for the price. I had sampled the food, but then they charged me for a full-sized dish, which felt misleading.

Another downside was the manager – while it’s nice to check in with customers, the manager was too talkative. He came to our table three times during the meal, which was more disruptive than pleasant.

Overall, I think there’s room for improvement in both the service and portion sizes. It wasn’t the experience I was hoping for, especially with all the hype surrounding it.

A unique experience of fusion Indian cuisine. We had the enchiladas, and ravioli. It was a perfect blend of Indian , Mexican and Italian flavors. It was a great dine-in experience thanks to Ashokji. He guided us through the whole menu and helped select the dishes. A definite to go place for those special occasions. A five star experience.

Great food. They adjust the food's spiciness to your preference. Love the veggies that came with the curry.

Wonderful fusion of Indian and Mexican dishes and service from the waiters and owner is excellent.

What a delightful experience! Food was delicious and seasoning was on point. Owner recommended a meal for my vegetarian husband that was on point. I also had my entree customized to have smoked eggplant and shrimp. I believe some of the food is grown by the restaurant so it’s as farm fresh as it gets. Unique menu but all the flavors are well thought out and delicious.

Avatar's in Sausalito is an absolute gem! My mom recommended it, and it exceeded our expectations. Each dish is filled with unique flavors and ingredients, offering a refreshing break from typical "run-of-the-mill" options. It’s incredibly vegetarian-friendly, which was a big plus for us.

What really stood out was the warm, courteous personal touch! The service was quick, and every dish was a delight. We tried the samosa, Punjabi enchilada, smoked eggplant, and curried mushrooms, each bursting with a mix of spices and varying levels of heat that complemented the flavors beautifully. The lightly curried button mushrooms (still dreaming of these!) were unforgettable.

For three of us, the total was $80 (no alcohol), making it reasonably priced. This is a must-visit spot, and we can’t wait to go back!

Absolutely loved the food here. The owner still runs the place after 30+ years and brings the same energy to every table. We with the owners recommendation and it was amazing.
The kind of innovation with very old ingredients from India that are forgotten is just mind blowing.

I didn't like the dessert as I don't like artificial sweeteners taste.

Definitely recommend.

Great customer overall but very pricey given the portion. The smoked egg plant prawn pasta only contained 3 prawns and half cup of pasta and the price was $22. This is my first time tasting Indian cuisine and may be my last time. I agree with the others that the lassi was the best, however, the portion I got was relatively small comparing to the photos others posted here. Mine was served in a wine glass. This restaurant was generally not worth the hype and overrated in terms of price, taste, and quantity.
