Bikanervala Thousand Oaks

I tried Bikanervala in Thousand Oaks and overall had a pretty good experience. I ordered the kachori—my first time trying it here, it tasted really good and flavorful. However, when I ordered it again on my second visit, the outer layer was a bit rubbery and didn’t feel as fresh as the first time. The portion size could also be slightly better for the price. That said, the ambience is great—clean, vibrant, and perfect for enjoying North Indian chats. Despite the inconsistency, it’s still a nice place to explore a variety of North Indian snacks. I’d definitely visit again!

I can’t believe we have authentic, high-quality Indian food right here in Thousand Oaks! Bikanerwala completely blew me away — the ambience is amazing, warm, and welcoming, and the food is absolutely clean, flavorful, and genuinely Indian in every bite. It’s the kind of place that instantly feels like home. Every dish tasted just like it was made with love, and you can tell the care that goes into everything they serve. Kiran Aunty is simply amazing — so kind, so passionate, and truly the heart of this place. And she made Jain food for us. I’ll gladly drive 40 miles every weekend from Beverly Hills just to come back here. Loved every single moment of this experience!

This place is a hidden gem, the food is amazing! Spice level is perfect and they have very friendly service. My wife and i love coming here. We always get the deluxe thali, pao bhaji, and of course the favorite indian snack gol gappe. The masala dosa was also great. Still trying out more menu items! The chai is also very flavorful. We all took a box of sweets which are also reasonably priced and very tasty. Just made this our regular vegetarian lunch spot in thousand oaks! Great atmosphere for families or a solo lunch!

I had a great experience at Bikanervala, part of a well-known chain. The food was delicious and lived up to expectations, with a wide variety of menu items to choose from. The vibe and ambience were fantastic, making for an enjoyable dining atmosphere. Overall, a solid 5-star experience!

If you’re craving authentic Indian flavors in the USA, Bikanerwala is truly a gem! From the moment you walk in, the place greets you with warm hospitality and the aroma of freshly prepared Indian snacks and sweets. The variety is outstanding—whether it’s chaats, thalis, or their wide range of mithai, everything is prepared with authentic spices and feels just like home. I especially loved their Chole Bhature and Raj Kachori—absolutely spot on, with the perfect balance of flavor and freshness. The sweets counter is another highlight—each piece is rich, fresh, and beautifully presented. Service was quick and friendly, and the atmosphere was lively yet clean and comfortable, making it great for both families and casual outings. It’s rare to find Indian food in the US that tastes this close
