Sunset Indian Cuisine

IndianSan Francisco$$

Sunset Indian Cuisine is one of the best indian restaurants in San Francisco for date night, especially if you want a strong option in San Francisco.

On Irving Street in the Inner Sunset, Sunset Indian Cuisine occupies a distinctive lane in the neighborhood's competitive dining corridor: it draws from both Indian and Himalayan-Nepali culinary traditions, a dual focus that separates it from the subcontinental mainstream and reflects the backgrounds of Chef Harry and Lekhnath, who together bring over two decades of combined hospitality experience to this locally owned room.
