Immediately after kayaking in the Bay, I was ravished for a substantial meal. I was past the point of hangry and now entering a delirious state. Luckily, my Yelp elite friend, Phuong, had already mapped out coming to Avatar's, which is right off of Bridgewater, making it very easy to get to the restaurant. Saturday at 1PM, the parking lot is pretty open. The place is tucked in between a Chinese restaurant and the rest of the complex. Not too hard to spot. When you enter the restaurant, the smell of rich Indian food full of spice comes wafting into your nose. Maybe it was my depleted stomach, but I commented, "It smells like heaven in here." This place is a fusion between Indian and Mexican food, which I would never have put together before. The restaurant itself had maybe 10 tables and the counter and a third of them were occupied by other guests. My friend was already seated when I was greeted by the charismatic and charming owner, Ashok. Ever meet one of those people who love their job and are excited to share with you the best they have to offer? Yeah, that's Ashok right there. He kept us smiling and laughing, primarily because he could sense how hungry we were and said, "I can read your mind and know exactly what you want." He recommended the Pumpkin and Chicken Enchilada. We also ordered the Vegetarian Samosas to start us out. I made a quick trip to the bathroom (which is through the dishroom, kitchen, and down a hallway) to wash the salt from the Ocean off of me, but our samosas had appeared before I returned. Damn, they're quick. The samosas were light and crispy on the outside, but were filled with potatoes and peas. The sauces were savory, spicy, and sweet. The mango puree and chutney made this dish complete. Right as we were done with the samosas, out came our enchiladas. They were both hot, but I couldn't help myself and started eating (while burning my tongue a little). The curried sauce, pumpkin, and chicken all encased in a tortilla hit my tastebuds in all the right places. Plus the saffron basmati rice helped even out the richness of the enchilada. Each ingredient delicately balanced each other out so the taste wasn't overwhelming nor was it bland. The perfect intensity of each flavor in each bite. Normally I talk during a meal, but I was silent this time because I was fully enjoying the enchiladas. I couldn't help but smile after I swallowed each bite. Who would have thought Mexican and Indian food would go together so well? What kind of sorcery is this? Both my friend and I agreed that it was just the right amount of food and richness after a morning workout. I felt comfortably full and restored. Maybe next time I'll get the dessert, but the samosas and enchiladas hit the spot. I would highly recommend venturing out here to visit Ashok and try some Mexican-Indian food. I'll surely be back again real soon!

Absolutely Fabulous Meal!!! Very unusual and delicious!    Truly great! Run and enjoy!!!

Avatars is just simply delicious! Ashok treats everyone with so much respect and loves to satisfy your palate. We left our meals in his hands and he delivered. Brought a friend from Philly to  try Avatars, although he was very hesitant when I told him about the Indian and Mexican fusion after he finished his meal he couldn't stop saying how good it was! Job well done Ashok & crew! I will definitely be coming back!

Another Great lunch at Avatars in Sausalito. The owner makes a lung an experience. He is quick to tell you to forget the menu and just tell him what you like and how you like it. Then he and his team creates your plate. The quality of the food is Outstanding. Fresh vegetables and roots (yes roots, ask the owner about them and he'll give you a lesson on roots and their flavors). Even if you think your not a fan of Indian food. Give Avatars a try, you'll be glad you did. I highly recommend having lunch at Avatars.

I am Indian and trust me this place blew me the away. The flavored from India meticulously re designed to suit every palette. And great service. Leave it to he owner to decide your meal! 👍👌

Absolutely Fabulous Meal!!! Very unusual and delicious!    Truly great! Run and enjoy!!!

The experience at Avatars already started in a weird way. On our way out of SF we were looking for a place for a quick lunch. We found this place in yelp which promotes to be a Mexican place (we didn't notice the Indian part, which makes the larger part of the menu). The place was very crowded and has very bad acoustic. It is very loud and uncomfortable to sit for more than just a few minutes. The food was ok, but not more. My girlfriend ordered the enchilada with rice. The rice is the blandest rice I had in a long time. Same with my menu, the "generous bowl of lentils with rice". The menu was rather small (I expected something else from "generous") and the lentils, which I ordered "spicy" where almost as bland as the rice. Staff was very stressed with the number of people, but otherwise friendly enough (also nothing to write home about). The place hasn't much appeal to visit a second time. It truly is nothing to write home about ... But disappointing enough to write about it on yelp ;-).

Avatars is the BEST. Great one-of-a- kind food, great atmosphere, great service. We visit from Atlanta about 4 times a year and we go here every time. Tell Ashok what you like and he will tailor the dish to your taste. Trust him and you will never be disappointed.

Unusual fare. Very creative. Tastes wonderful. It wants more words from me but I have said all I watched to about this.

An interesting combination for sure..it's like Indian style Mexican food.. I would probably say it's more like a 3.5. They have tortas, pasta? And regular Indian food... I got curries inside an enchilada since it was the most famous/recommended here. I got it with lamb... Food was good but a bit salty. I had way too much enchilada and not enough rice. My rice was way hard, sadly. Other than the saltiness and hard rice..the food tasted good, with complex flavors. It definitely doesn't seem healthy though o_O Also the bathroom was in a weird scary place. I accidentally walked into someone's office..??? Luckily there was no one in there!!!

Haha, might be worth it to come here just to hear the owner hype his food. Prepare your mind and body for a life altering journey through a wonderland of exotic taste and magical flavors. Let's just say after hearing about it, my expectations were through the ceiling. After trying their samosa and Indian-Mexican enchiladas... I was satisfied but I'm not sure yet if I'm any closer to nirvana. The food is a unique fusion which works. Its not afraid spicy and its price point all make it a nice place to eat without breaking the bank. I tried my gfs dish which was like a salad and I felt there wasn't a significant different in the flavors used. I wonder and worry if a lot of dishes just kind of taste the same. Overall, I'd be interested in coming back to try other dishes. 3.5 stars but closer to 4.

This place is totally different from other places. It had good fusion Indian food. They don't have the typical authentic Indian food but then all their main courses were delicious !

A complete gem! Absolutely loved this place and still crave it multiple times a week on the east coast! My girlfriend and I found ourselves here on the Wednesday before thanksgiving as we walked around Sausalito! We saw the long line and I remembered yelping this place months ago, so naturally we waited to check out the hype. What we didn't know was that it was "community day" - the restaurant feeds the entire community as a way of giving back for thanksgiving, free of charge. We sat down at the bar and were told there is no menu, confused - we asked about their vegetarian option for me. Pumpkin Enchiladas.. Sounds adventurous, so we ordered away and were quickly served in the bustling restaurant. The flavors were incredible, with a mix of the Indian-Mexican fusion I grew up eating. After completion of the meal, we looked around at the super busy, chaotic place, wondering if it was always this crazy! As we asked for the bill, the volunteer server explained to us that it was community day, the waitstaff were all volunteers and the meal is free for everyone. As incredible as that was to hear, I felt odd eating a free meal and begged him to let us tip! He respectfully said no, and asked us to feed a homeless man in SF instead. -- we left in awe of the restaurant and the incredible food, as anyone would. Still miss this place!

For lunch we were searching Indian cuisine in San Francisco,US. We saw reviewers on Yelps and reached Avatar's. After discussion with Mr Ashok, we ordered for veg meal ( Punjabi Enchilada made with baby spinach &taro root, rice with seasonal mixed vegetable & Pasta). Mr Ashok assured for TASTE and said meal would be free if not liked by us....

Really nice people, small place, definitely authentic indian with a mexican flare which makes for interesting cuisine. the veggie samosas were AMAZING. the pumpkin chicken enchiladas were definitely different i just didn't love them.

super delicious food! Awesome service. They made us jain(no onion no garlic) vegetarian options like Ravioli and Enchilada which is impossible to find elsewhere in the bay. masala chaas and desert were pretty good as well. The owner is very friendly. I have to try the jain samosas next time. Definitely, coming here more often. Keep up the great job!

Was visiting sausalito with family and randomly decided to have lunch here. We were definitely intrigued by the Mexican Indian fusion. The restaurant in itself is a small place. We were 6 of us and they had to combine two tables to make space for us to sit together. The most interesting event of the entire lunch was the owner who came by our table, introduced himself, and, very proudly boasted about his food being one of the best in the world and his restaurant being the only one in the entire world serving such a fusion. It was a little weird cause he made himself seem like one of the top chefs in the world. Anyway, he asked us not to look at the menu and just to tell him how we like our food and what kind of protein we want in it. After his introduction we were all very eager to taste the food but when it arrived it was a huge let down. This maybe because he oversold himself and we expected a lot or maybe just cause the food was just mediocre. We only liked two out of the six we ordered (fish and lamb). The others weren't bad but just not up to what he described them to be. He never came back to our table to check on us and see if we actually enjoyed the food or not.  But the worst part of the entire experience was when he brought us the check. It was hand written and every dish was charged twice the price compared to what was on the menu. Now, its not like we wouldn't mind paying but it was unexpected cause he never told us his special preparations would cost more. All in all we spent $160 for 6 people in a two $$ restaurant for lunch. If you look at the menu, the average cost of a dish is $13. He also added gratuity which made it seal the deal for me to never go back. We had been to 6 restaurants that weekend and this was the only one to add gratuity. I would've given this 3 stars if not for the last part. TL;DR if you do end up going here, make sure to ask the price of the dish you're ordering beforehand.

We stopped here for lunch and were immediately greeted enthusiastically by Ashok who promised amazing food and they delivered! We are visiting from AZ so were intrigued by the mix of Indian and Mexican food. It was a nice change and fun to try something different. They have a good kids menu too so that allowed us to try this...

Mother of God! Stop searching. Eat here. Food was amazing. We went with kids. The owner is great. Will be back for sure.   I would like to expand this view. We were on our way from Sac to half moon way. It was lunch time and I was searching Yelp for something vegetarian. It's always challenging with the picky kids we have. I came across avatar on search and thought we should try. The place is very unassuming which we always like. They sat us promptly although the place was fairly packed for a Monday lunch hour. The owner came to us and while we were figuring out the menu, he asked us if he can prepare something for us? ( I loved that very much) he also asked what the kids liked: sheepishly we said pasta. The food came and it was spectacular. We started with samosas and even though they looked dry (not super fried) they were delicious. Then he brought two plates for my husband and I to share and they were both amazing. The girls food was really hard to describe. Looked like spinach fettuccini, but it was gluten free pasta with Swiss chard and collard greens mixed in. We ate everything and really enjoyed our exotic stop. Very decent prices as well. Please try it. It's fun and exotic. But delicious at the same time.

Love this place- the food is fantastic. The enchiladas filled with pumpkin or squash are incredible. The owner and his family are the most kind and caring people. Namaste!

4-4.5 stars. Love this concept, Indian/Mexican fusion? Who knew! A great combo! The owner of this restaurant is incredibly welcoming and friendly, he knows how to run a business and make you feel right at home! He expertly started us off with the vegetarian samosas, talk about starting off the meal right! For the main course we let the owner decide based on what each of us had a taste for, no one was disappointed. Although, my meal could have been a bit more spicy, it was still well balanced an delicious (pumpkin lamb enchiladas). The dessert was another home run. Overall great dining experience

Very creative Indian Mexican fusion. The food presentation is very pleasing. The host Ashok is also extremely friendly. I am definitely going back for desserts. Good for vegetarians too.

Situation - Lunch with friends on Presidents Day (Feb 2015) - Ordered Chicken Pumpkin Enchilada, Mango Lassi, and Samosas - Friends ordered Crab Pumpkin Enchilada and Chicken Pumpkin Enchilada - One friend ordered a beer Pros - Great service (by Ashok, I think that's what his name was) - Interesting and tasty Indian food with a Mexican style - Delicious Samosas Cons - The beer is slightly pricey: $10 for a large bottle

How can you not like this place.  The owner met us at the door and when he handed us the menu he asked if we had been there before.  Upon a negative response, he took back the menus and said to trust him if we were ready for the best meal of our lives (or something like that).  So we ordered a beer and waited to see what we were going to be eating. He did ask if there were any food issues in our lives and then food started appearing.  One was sort of an enchilada looking dish with pumpkin and crab meat inside.  I nice mole looking sauce on top and some rice.  Delicious.  the other dish was kind of a seafood mixed grill with a couple of giant mussels, some shrimp i think, a nice sauce and rice.  There were more items but some I couldn't identify or remember.  It was great. The beer was an indian beer and I think I would stick with some tea or water next time.  Not my style. Super friendly, great food, and easy to find in sausalito.  I recommend it and will return.

You wouldn't think Mexican and Indian food would go together but this place has gotten it right. It doesn't look like much from the outside, buried among other businesses on the outside of Sausalito, but once you taste their food, you'll be going back for sure. It has all the right flavors and spices, with fast and friendly service. If you're going back to SF from Muir Woods, get off and try this place, you won't regret it!

After randomly ending up here after a day in Muir Woods, I will absolutely go back. Mom and I enjoyed a delicious lentil soup and samosas before indulging in spicy lamb curry and the lamb and eggplant enchiladas. We ordered the desert on a whim, and spent 15 minutes evaluating and dissecting it to figure out all the components. When I told my colleagues about this place, one of them said it's her absolute favorite, and she even takes an uber from SF just to go there. Now we're planning a ferry ride for a team outing over to Avatar's.

This is a cozy place with unusual combinations of food. Ravioli and enchiladas with curry filling, salad combinations that intrigue, and a FABULOUS dessert. Will definitely visit again.

I really wanted to give this place a higher rating but I don't think I will be going back. The first time we came here we were very impressed but subsequent visits have not been very good. The first time we came here the owner promised the best meal of our lives and took our inputs which was kind of nice. For our other visits he basically just ordered for us which ended up being a little too spicy. The worst part was that to use the restroom you have to go through the kitchen and kind of squeeze out through a narrow area next to a nasty trash can. Come on guys, that's just gross! The management needs to do something about this. Also the restrooms themselves were pretty dirty as well.

The place just says "Avatar's Restaurant" so you don't know what you're getting into until you go inside. There is no indication that this is actually an Indian Mexican fusion restaurant tucked into what appears to be a former diner. Yep, Indian Mexican fusion. The server (also owner?) is extremely charismatic and friendly and upon seeing my twin 5-year-olds immediately begins telling me that they can make anything even if it's not on the menu, like pasta for example. He tells us this each time he comes to the table while we're still perusing the menu, like he's ready for a dare. He seems to really want us to ask so I inquire whether he has any Indian food that is kid-friendly. He asks for a protein (we get chicken and tofu) and he yells the order to the kitchen so they get to work. I ask for a veggie in there, too, so he yells to them to include broccoli. He seems very invested in whether or not the kids like their dish and tells us if they don't like it he'll make something else or not charge us, and jokes that if they lick the plate he'll charge double. It arrives with an Indian tomato-based sauce that's not spicy and is served over rice. My kids ended up liking it quite a bit - which was nice because the spiciness of most Indian food has made it something difficult for them to try. HOWEVER, we were charged $12 for their meal. I mean, yes, they liked it but I expected that we'd be charged the same price as the other kids' entrees on the menu which were $7-9. If I'd known I would have just ordered one of those. As it was their meal cost the same as the more expensive of our adult entrees. As for the adult food, the samosa was good and had a nice heat level. The smoked eggplant in the smoked eggplant tostada was my favorite part of my meal. I hoped that the paratha it was served on would be toasted to be crispy like a tostada but it wasn't. (Idea for owner: do that!) The chicken enchiladas with basmati rice were fine, but had the same sort of generic sauce as the tostada. Generic sauce was okay once but twice was a bit much. The dessert has the following inscrutable description on the menu: "There is only one dessert we carry here and we call it avatar's dream. Close your eyes and picture the sweetest concoction of dessert flavors from around the world coming full circle on one plate of bliss. Divine." Our server told us we MUST get it, but wouldn't reveal what was in it until it was time for dessert. So what was in the classified concoction? Almond gelato with a chocolate crust, a pistachio topping, and mango sauce. The almond gelato was too bland, and we were generally unimpressed. Not worth of being shrouded in mystery.

Vegan review! This place is AMAZING for accommodating vegans. We found ourselves on the other side of the bridge after a long day of exploring San Francisco. I quickly yelped this place and showed up with two of my friends, all of us sandy from the beach, parched, and HUNGRY. It doesn't look like much from the outside. All of its neighboring stores in the plaza have pretty much identical signs. We were there on a Wednesday evening, and parking was plentiful. Once we walked in, we were seated immediately. The tables are a bit cramped, as it is quite a small restaurant. Restrooms are available and are clean, but to get to them, you kind of awkwardly walk through the kitchen and avoid bumping into cooks and dishwashers. As we were looking over the menu, a man came out and asked us if we had any questions about the dishes. All of the dishes were very unique to me, along the lines of enchiladas with an Indian twist. Me being vegan, and my friend being vegetarian, we asked about our options. He actually went ahead and cooked us completely unique, off the menu dishes that were all vegan. He promised that it would be the "best vegan meal that could ever be dreamt of", so we were pretty excited to try our food. Oh. My. Gosh. BEST MEAL EVER. Everything we tried was so good. I'm not sure exactly what the names of the plates were, but I know we had some type of enchilada and some type of saag. He didn't want to tell us the vegetables he used because he wanted us to guess. What we thought was spinach was actually quinoa sprouts, potatoes were actually taros, and etc. It was a completely unique meal and very, VERY delicious. My friends and I left the restaurant satisfied and happy. Service was great. Water was quickly refilled, plates were set and cleared on time, and the man helping us had a sense of humor. This place deserves five stars. I highly recommend it to EVERYONE.

On our way home from a long hike in Muir Woods, we wanted to find a place to have a snack before heading back to SF. Yelp directed us to Avatars, which is a Mexican and Indian fusion restaurant. We've had this combo before a la Curry Up Now, but were intrigued by all the different items on their menu. The owner of the restaurant asked us if we were ready for the best meals of our lives, and he took our menus away and asked us what kind of entree we wanted (meat, veggie, etc). We were served taro root enchiladas and a lamb biryani type dish with lots of veggies. The enchiladas were soooooo good - a must try. The lamb in the other dish was a bit tough and not our favorite. We then ordered the seafood tostada, which is served on a paratha which is not crispy at all. It's a pretty big portion (though not enough for one single person's entree I think) and the seafood and sauces were all really good. We loved that everyone in the restaurant was friendly with the owners and seemed to be regulars. Overall, if you're in the area and are curious to try something really unique, Avatar's is the place for you!

Yums. Honestly, I never thought I would enjoy healthy Indian food, but this place sold me on it. I ordered a chicken curry habanero spicy and it was so delicious. It was so flavorful. This place may be my new go to spot for curry! -Kristen This place was really enjoyable. We got there healthy version of naan which was delicious and I had a the basmati trio. I was really hungry so I wished the portion was a little bigger but other than that the curry tasted awesome and very healthy! -Edmund 4 stars from Edmund, 5 stars from Kristen.

We went here because it was suggested in our guide. We were visiting. It a was a wonderful experience. The owner asked us if it was our first time, what we liked, and then... he said, "trust me". So we did not know what we would get! My wife got a vegetarian dish and I got fish. Both were extraordinary....

Goodness Gracious, Ashok has got to be the sweetest and enthusiastic restaurant owner I know. My friend and I were looking for a great lunch after our touristy day. This popped up when I searched lunch. Mexican and Indian fusion? Count me in. Parking was plenty. I was greeted by Ashok and promptly seated. I like how we are able to customize our orders without fuss, Ashok gave us great recommendations as well. We started off with samosas. Delicious. Filling was big and the outside were nice and crispy. I loved the sauces that came along. There was a mango chutney sauce, a creamy yogurt sauce, and another spicy sauce that gave it a little kick. For my entire, I got the eggplant enchilada with sea bass, medium. Perfect amount of spicy. The enchilada was perfect. Perfect amount of cheese, the tortilla was still firm enough to hold the ingredients. The sea bass was cooked perfectly. It paired so well with the eggplant and the curry sauce. I loved the fusion! The idea of this is pure genius! I cleaned my plate well. I love that it was soo healthy too. I did not feel gross and heavy afterwards. Satisfying in a way where I would love to come back and tell all my friends about it. Definitely taking my friend who is a vegetarian, loves Indian and Mexican food. I've been meaning to write a review for awhile, but I wanted to write something special for Ashok. You are great, please keep up the enthusiam! I hope you remember me when I come back!

This place is absolutely amazing. The atmosphere, the service, AND most importantly, the food. The second you walk in, the smell of the food will capture you. It's a tiny place, and there was a wait, but the food is very worth it! It's a first come first serve type place, no sign in sheet. I ordered the rose mango dream, and I will HAVE to recommend it. I understand that raviolis is not Indian or Mexican BUT the way this place creates this dish will make you question it! My friend ordered the curry trio. This dish was delicious as well. I was able to try a piece of chicken, and the second that I took the bite, I could instantly taste the wonderful flavors. My friend said the rice, lamb, prawn, veggies (everything on his plate pretty much) was delicious. There's a choice of how spicy you want your food. If you're okay with the heat staying in your mouth, I'd say go with medium. Lastly, we couldn't pass up on the dessert. There is just one dessert dish, so you either want it or not. And if you don't, let me be the one to say, don't leave this place without trying it! We preferred not to dip the dessert in the sauce that it comes with. It's great, but we thought it was better without it. Hands down, one of the very best places that I've ever been to in my life!

Muhammad Ali said "It's not bragging if you can back it up."  When the owner tells you that his lamb is ___________ (fill in outrageous claim here) you better believe it. Great food, great experience. I had the lamb and I can tell you that any words that even start with the letter L will make me think of the LAMB at Avatars. Warm and inviting staff, extensive and delectable selection.

You can taste the quality of ingredients as well as the care that goes into creating the dishes. I truly enjoyed the delicious, healthy food served in an uplifting, friendly atmosphere.

This was quite simply the quaintest restaurant where I had the best vegan meal of my life. Unforgettable.

Avatar's is one of a kind. Ashok and his crew will take great care of you, and you will taste things here you never knew were possible. And brilliant. Fabulous flavors, and rich experience. Truly friendly, if that is possible in a restaurant experience. NOT a place to go to, unless you expect the unexpected!

This restaurant was the single most unique, exciting, flavorful meal that I had in The Bay Area over the past two visits (this includes food from the food truck festivals and other highly rated hot spots) My cousin told us - "When you are in the SanFran area, you MUST go to Avatar's for Indian-Mexican food". It was the best food advice. A little background, I am VERY discerning and often critical of Indian restaurants in the US - I was raised with my nanyama and mom making homemade Gujarati food growing up (chapatis, terkari, homemade daals/curries...) . We were driving back to San Fran from Napa and took the easy detour to Sausalito to foray into the world of Indian-Mexican food. I ordered the Wild Salmon Punjabi Enchilada and it was sooooo good. Flavors that I did not know could work well together -  like jack and cheddar cheese, saffron, curried enchilada sauce, yogurt - were literally dancing on my tongue. My spouse also ordered the Punjabi Enchilada - but with chicken and he loved it. I HIGHLY recommend that you drive to one of the Avatar Restaurants if in the Bay Area... Especially if you are from NYC. There is a ton of amazing food in SanFran, but there is also comparably amazing food in NYC. Why would you not want to try a Punjabi Enchilada??!! Avatar's stood out because: 1) I had never tasted anything like it before, 2) The food taste/quality/price is excellent, 3) The service is amazing (the owner, Ashok, was walking around asking if the food was ok and introducing himself to all tables at the Sausalito location).

Why aren't there more Indian/Mexican fusion restaurants? Like Indian burritos and enchiladas? The jerk chicken and pumpkin enchilada here was so damn flavorful. Flavor for days. It made me think about some of the lackluster meals I'd had recently with scorn. The owner was nice and asked us if we were ready for the best meal of our lives. Whoa, buddy! That's a tall order. My eating partner got something like...yogurt chicken? I actually forget what it was, but the sauce was slightly sweet, maybe a tamarind flavor? Yum. As I mentioned already, my enchiladas were delicious. Both dishes were a little smaller than I would have liked, though. His was accompanied by rice and deliciously charred/spiced/grilled veggies, mine by rice. Also, my eating partner asked for a 7 on a scale of 10 spiciness and neither dish was spicy at all. Lunch for 2 with no drinks was $30. I would definitely return if I was in this area! We rode our rented bikes over the bridge from SF and once in Sausalito, it was at least another 10 minutes ride. Worth it!!

So disappointed. We have been wanting to try this place for years and we were excited about the possibility of having the option to be surprised by our dish. We ended up getting crab enchiladas ($20 charge) and a random mix of lamb and mussels ($20 charge). These things were not specifically on the menu but we didn't choose them and they were higher priced on the tab than anything on the menu. So, unless your money is something you can throw down easily like that, they will surprise you with charges that add up tremendously. Oh, and the food was not fantastic. Mole sauce was weird. The only part we liked was the somosas. The end.

We stopped here for lunch and were immediately greeted enthusiastically by Ashok who promised amazing food and they delivered! We are visiting from AZ so were intrigued by the mix of Indian and Mexican food. It was a nice change and fun to try something different. They have a good kids menu too so that allowed us to try this...

I had the vegetarian "Punjabi Enchilada- Curried Sweet Potato", and they seemed to have a good selection of vegetarian foods with a indo-mexican fusion flare. Also regular Indian dishes & curries both with meat and vegetarian. Great dessert-"Avatar's Dream" with mango and cream cheese! Yum!

This was my first time visiting Avatar's and I didn't know what to expect. The menu is quite unique and includes pumpkin, sweet potato, and eggplant based dishes along with chicken and lamb. I had the smoked eggplant with curried chicken burrito. The flavors worked well and it had a nice amount of spice. The service was friendly and I...

Punjabi Enchiladas for the win!

Veggie pumpkin enchiladas are awesome!

This place is awesome. Coolest environment. Let the cook/owner decide your meal for you

Cool Indian-Mexican mixes! But they serve food faster than water! :)

Gotta try the dessert!! Awesome fusion!

Trust the owners judgement and do not order off the menu

Food looked and smelled wonderful, but had a sour taste to it and had no kick.

Marin IJ dining review: Avatar's specializes in unique flavors, warmth (follow link!)

do NOT come here if you are looking for straight Indian food. lamb pumpkin enchiladas are good if you're into the fusion thing.

Stopped for drink after a long touristy day - decided we HAD to eat here. Sat at bar (recommend you do, too) and watched, conversed and listened with the staff. Wished we lived 2k miles closer. 5star

Blackened seafood rocks! They will spice it up for you. Dessert? Only one...Avatar's dream...truly delicious!

The food is really good at this place,and the Indian - Mexican fusion of dishes and flavors works out pretty well. Vegetable samosa is delicious.

Indian pumpkin enchiladas. The owner challenged me to find something I like better on the planet and I could eat free in his restaurants for life. There's also a punjabi burrito place in mill valley.

Roasted Eggplant Curried Chicken burrito is blessed, and cheap!

Ashok knows what you want before you do.

If the owner is taking your order, let him suggest than you picking the food ,. Pumpkin enchiladas are a must have ..

This restaurant will make anything you dream up with an indian flare! Superb!!!

Stick to the fusion menu. The Indian curries are OK.

Food and AMAZING service!

Let the chef decide your meal. Nom sweet potato enchiladas with basmati rice!!

great place, lightning fast free wifi

order the crab enchiladas and don't pass up their special dessert --indian/mexican food THE BEST

Let the owner order for you, and don't forget to order the mystery dessert! :-)

You can't go wrong with any menu item. This is definitely a dinner you'll write home about. Be sure to tell the owner your dietary restrictions and be surprised with what you get! 10/10

The one and only dessert Avatars Dream is just awesome. Try it!

You HAVE to try the pumpkin crab enchilada... Amazing, the owner is adorable :)

Get the pumpkin enchilada and the mystery dessert! Everything is made gluten free and can be requested vegan

One of the best food in my life...

Let them create the meal for you. It's awesome.

A very friendly tiny family-owned restaurant with yummy Indian - Mexican mixed cuisine. Highly recommend u to try pumpkin mole sauce enchiladas (not sure exactly the dish name).

Amazing food!! Definitely let the owner decide your dish for you. Get the appetizer and dessert. Pumpkin isn't listed on the menu but you can request it as an ingredient.

Limited veg options but food is tasty.

This place has some seriously awesome samosas and daal

Food was terrific here - loved the soup! Got the impression it's a local favorite. Family run, unique mix - food is delicious. Very casual, not pretentious.
