“ We order from here regularly. It's home made, Karnataka food - they have north Indian option also. The quantity is a little less but food is not overly spicy and oily like restaurants. The take out place is a run down location in San Jose. My daughter said the food feels like I have come to a friend's house for dinner. That's a great compliment. This is closest you will get to home made, Karnataka food. We always order the weekly thalis - combo meals. ”
“ We regularly order food from Suggi oota and have also tasted their catered meals at private parties in the bay area. Karnataka food isn't the easiest to find around here, but Suggi oota is hands down the best I've had. True to the name, the food is absolutely festive. The rice item + chapathi-sabji menu on weekdays are delicious and have a home cooked taste. Special mention to their spicing that hits all the right notes on my palette. There's good variety in the weekly menu, the portion sizes are great and the pricing seems fair (esp in the post-covid era). The only (non) complaint I have is I wish they had a sit down place to complete the sense of nostalgia and cultural immersion. I hope they open one soon! :) The food is all vegetarian, but I would gladly recommend it even to my non-vegetarian friends! ”
“ Great food for nostalgic Bangalore-Mysore food: ambode, bele obbattu, Saaru, veg bhath and many more. ”
“ Hello there, First I have ordered suggi oota in san jose. I felt like having home food. Very delicious holige oota( very good lunch). I really liked it. Thanks ”
“ Suggi Oota operates as a ghost kitchen, as are a bunch of others in this location. This is a nice upgrade in the before-times where you had to place orders 2+ days ahead of time. Thankfully not nearly as bad as it was then, but Suggi Oota's take out process wasn't the smoothest either. That said, food was received well and everything was neatly packed and I thoroughly enjoyed the meal. Light on the stomach, yet well balanced in flavors (though it does skew more towards more subtle tastes). Though their operation is based in the same takeout kitchen space as several other restaurants, they don't seem to be operating on the same system. This means they don't use the lockers and you actually have to call Suggi Oota directly to bring your order out. This is actually posted there, but you have to notice or you'll be just left waiting...so definite caution. I'm quite the novice to North Karnataka cuisine, but my humble opinion was that the food itself was pretty good, with everything being generally fresh and flavorful, though on the less seasoned side for some dishes. I can't exactly name the dishes too well, but very fresh and 'healthy' (minimal salt and grease). If you can't handle spicy as well... you'll probably miss out on a lot of the flavor as the spicy paste was remarkably potent and added a nice complexity to the dishes. I also probably didn't eat them 'correctly', but hey it was a pleasant meal. That said, you may need to stir up some of the soup containers for full flavor due to settling, as the lentil soup (?) certainly needed it. The dessert was a lovely rice pudding with noodles (of some sort) and heavy notes of cinnamon and cardamom. ”
“ Disclaimer. I didn't order the food nor pay for it. I attended an event where Suggi Oota catered food. It was Karnataka cuisine which I don't see a lot of in the Bay Area. An extra star just for that. What was good. Mango Chitranna, Dal vada especially with dill leaves ( very good), holige (a little oily), rasam, moong dal + raw mango salad( kosambari, it was the best) and simple homemade pickle. What was not so great - some eggplant curry which the kids found too spicy and I thought lacked flavor. Would I order from them personally - most likely not till they fix the issues with the website. It needs a lot of effort and navigation to order. Every time I try it says the order is full and there is no potential for pre order nor a clear indication of what I will get as part of the menu. ”
