Best Desi Pizza — Restaurant in San Jose

This is by far one of the best pizzas I’ve had, and beats Seattle’s CanAm, my other favourite. Wish I could give more stars.

Food: This place serves authentic Indian pizzas made from scratch. The pizzas have a strong flavor of ginger which makes them bearably spicy. Chilli Paneer pizza is a die for, there is something so succulent about those tender paneer pieces that it’s just impossible not to love it. Garden Veggie Pesto is second in the list. The best part is you request for half and half of any two flavors. I didn’t really like the Pav Bhaji pizza, or was it because I tasted it after gobbling down a whole medium sized pizza? 🤔

Service: The place is run by hardly 2/3 staff looks like, and the service is pretty good. The person in the front desk in fact recognized us when we went the second time, and was very friendly. They once served a wrong pizza, and served the right one for no extra cost, and without us asking.

Ambience: It’s a small place, looks like a take-away, but you would get seats anytime you go. It’s also clean and quiet mostly.

Price: The food is reasonably priced, and this is a good hangout spot with friends.

Only suggestion is it would be good if they could hang their sanitation rating certificate.

UPDATE: Their Chana Masala pizza is yummilicious, must try after...

With a multitude of Indian pizzas relished in Vancouver, my culinary curiosity led me to Campbell, CA, in pursuit of a remarkable experience at the Best Desi Pizza – and let me assure you, it did not disappoint!

Opting for a half-and-half creation, I selected the Curry Garlic Chicken Pizza and the Veggie Paneer Pizza. As a fervent admirer of Indian flavors, I was genuinely taken aback by the depth of authenticity that the Curry Garlic Chicken Pizza brought to the forefront. What added an extra layer of satisfaction was my personal conversation with the owner, who not only confirmed the halal status of the chicken but was also incredibly nice and took the time to explain the nuances and differences between the flavors.

The Veggie Paneer Pizza was a symphony of colors and textures, capturing the essence of Indian vegetarian cuisine effortlessly. Amidst the layers of freshness and crunch, the paneer's creamy subtlety was a delight to the palate.

I ordered the Tandoori Chicken pizza, and overall, it was a decent experience, though not particularly memorable. The flavor profile was quite enjoyable, the tandoori seasoning added a pleasant, mildly spiced kick that complemented the toppings well. I also appreciated the thin crust, which had a nice crispness without feeling overly dry or brittle. That said, the pizza itself felt a bit on the dry side. A more generous amount of cheese would have helped bring the flavors together and added the creaminess needed to balance the spiced toppings. The portion of toppings was generous and well distributed, but the lack of sufficient cheese made the overall texture less cohesive. In terms of pricing, I found it slightly steep for what it offered. A reduction of a few dollars would make it feel like better value for the quality and portion size. All in all, it’s a solid option with good flavor and texture balance, but it could be improved with a touch more cheese and a slightly more competitive...
