This truly is a gem in Alameda. All of the dishes that I have tried here have been really wonderful. From the Dahl Makani to the Lamb Vindaloo to all the Tikka Masala and Samosa inbetween.
The location is a bit odd, in a house on a quiet street. They have recently renovated the foyer, however, the turqoise and white booths still remain as do the aqua-marine beaded curtains.
Everything that I have eaten at India Palace tastes so fresh. I highly recommend the Chicken Korma and Lamb Vindaloo. I have recently tried the Lamb Paneer and that was heavenly as well (and I'm usually not a big fan of lamb!). The Tandoori Chicken comes to your table sizzling on a bed of carmelizing sweet onions.
You can tell an ethnic restaurant is good when you see the native ethnicity eating there. This is the case with India Palace.
Pros: Ample Parking, Delicious, Satisfying
Cons: Busy on Weekends, Slow Service
