Amber India at Santana Row is widely considered one of the best upscale Indian restaurants in the Bay Area, with a menu of refined North and South Indian dishes made with quality ingredients. The lamb rogan josh, butter chicken, and dosas are all excellent, and the weekend brunch buffet is a local institution. It can get very crowded on weekends so a reservation is wise.
