Garam Mirchi- Pure Veg Rajasthani & Indo Chinese Restaurant

Reviewing the Rajasthani Thaal experience now, curious to try their Indian Chinese options. Overall experience was tad disappointing.
A very home-like and authentic food, however I’d expect a little more from a restaurant.
We got the Thaal for two and were happy with the quantity without additional helpings. The roti’s weren’t fresh and were hot initially and hard to chew soon.
Baati was done well and could use some extra ghee, the highlight was definitely the daal.
Deserts were okay too.

Nice Rajasthani style food and ambience.
They also serve turban to visitors.
It's right next to apna mandi.
Parking lot is big but it's full everytime we visited.
Little struggle to find a spot.
Food tastes authentic Rajasthani and the service was good.
Try the thali it's good.

Garam Mirchi is pure Vegetarian restaurant which also serves Indo Chinese food.
It is located in the same complex as Apni Mandi (Previously Apna Bazaar) in Fremont.
After you are seated in, you are offered water on your hands to clean and seems very few restaurants offer this.
( Previously, I had this experience one of the Denver restaurants.) They also offer Turban / Rajasthani Pagadi which is typical headgear worn in Rajasthan, India.
We felt great and used the headgear for the entire duration of our meal. We took the Silver Thali and were happy.
The welcome drink was as yogurt drink, called Chachh or Mattha or Taak which is essentially, yogurt (or butter milk) , some water and little bit of masala/spices like cumin powder, salt etc.
This was delicious. The thali was explained to us and how to eat.
You crush the bati, pour ghee and put on Dal- Optionally Gatte ki Subji and churma.
They also serve Boondi Raita, Ghee Rice-Pulav, Aamras, Papad and two types of Chutni's with the Thali . Everything is Unlimited.
However, most people will be full with the first serving itself. Every dish was good or excellent.
The excellent stuff were Dal, Bati, Churma, Ghee Rice, Papad, Buttermilk, Gatta ki Subji.
What I can say is - Many will really relish this food, but none will find it below their liking. Aamras is something slightly below their perfection standard.
It was good, but I guess, the other dishes were exemplary and Aamras fell short. Service is warm, pleasing and very attentive.
We were explained everything by Vivek.
And not only him, but everyone went out of their way to help.
After our Dinner, we asked Vivek what is Ker Sangri and he explained and also offered some for us to taste.
The Ker Sangri is out of this world and it goes beyond the level of the other dishes in the establishment.
Next time, we will be definitely trying Ker Sangri. One area, where I had no issue, but feel that some other customers might have - They welcome you, serve you food etc, but they do Not pour water in your glasses.
They put the filled water pitcher and cups on your tables and expect you to pour yourself.
I am guessing, some of the clients will not like this.
I realize this is nit picking and feel that this restaurant is close to perfection and they should strive to exceed their/client expectations. For payment, they accept many methods and would charge 3% extra for credit cards, rest all They do give you 3% off such as Cash, Zelle and equivalent payment methods. We will visit again and this place is a gem.
I do believe their Ker Sangri is Michelin Star level dish. Best wishes to entire team and specially Vivek.
Please keep up the great work.
