If you’re looking for authentic Indian comfort food in Santa Clara, Puranpoli Restaurant is a must-visit. Everything we tried was flavorful, well prepared, and truly comforting. We started with the sabudana khichdi, which was perfectly balanced light, aromatic, and cooked just right. The pav bhaji was rich, buttery, and packed with flavor, served with soft toasted buns that soaked up the curry beautifully. For sweets, the rasgulla was soft, juicy, and not overly sweet a perfect ending. And of course, the highlight was the puran poli: a traditional sweet flatbread stuffed with a jaggery and lentil filling, thin, soft, and finished with ghee. Absolutely delicious and made the traditional way. The food quality, authentic flavors, and comforting dishes make this one of the best Indian resta

We live in Los Angeles, and there are hardly any authentic Maharashtrian restaurants in the entire LA area. Recently, we had to travel to San Jose for some work, and for Maharashtrian food we decided to visit “PuranPoli.” From the very first bite, we instantly fell in love with every single dish here. The Shivalkar family serves homestyle, authentic, and exceptionally high-quality Maharashtrian food. For anyone craving truly traditional Maharashtrian vegetarian cuisine, “PuranPoli” is the one and only destination — and I say this confidently as a true foodie. We ordered Sabudana Khichdi, Sabudana Vada, Vada Misal, Kothimbir Vadi, Bharli Vangi, Bhakri, Puran Poli, and Modak. Every dish was authentic, fresh, and absolutely delicious. I’ve eaten at hundreds of restaurants across Mumbai and

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Puranpoli, and I must say it was a truly wonderful experience from start to finish. Everything, from the moment we walked in, spoke of quality and care. The meal itself was absolutely fantastic. We ordered the [mention a specific dish if you remember one, otherwise generalize: house special thali/signature curry], and the flavors were authentic, rich, and perfectly balanced. Every dish tasted fresh and carefully prepared—a genuine culinary treat. What truly elevated the visit was the excellent service. Our server was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, offering great recommendations without being intrusive. The staff ensured we had everything we needed promptly and with a smile.

★★★★★ 5.0 Muthu Kumar · Nov 2025

The Puranpoli in Santa Clara is a total gem for Maharashtrian food lovers! Their Thali is off the charts - it's like a flavor explosion of peanuts, garlic, and red chilies. The green chutney with Vada Pav is a must-try, and their Sabudana Vada is truly a crispy perfection! Yet to me their real star is the Kolhapuri Misal Pav - it's a taste sensation! If you're craving authentic Maharashtra flavors, Puranpoli has got you covered!

★★★★★ 5.0 Dr. Anagha Kulkarni M.D. PhD scholar · Feb 2026

We have enjoyed Authentic Puran poli with Pure ghee, Modak and Kothimbir vadi, so many times, felt like home made dishes are served keeping the delicious taste unchanged. Second time we took dine in experience too, which was quite satisfactory and relished the taste. Lunch thali was adequate, tasty but portion size of sweet served was very small. Misal pav was quite tasty, kadhai paneer, bharli vangi had bhakri had authentic taste. Its really enjoyable experience.
