Kiaans Fine Indian Cuisine

Kiaan’s Fine Indian Cuisine is hands down the best Indian restaurant in San Clemente! While the portions are very small, I had the lamb vindaloo and it was absolutely incredible — rich, flavorful, and perfectly spicy with tender pieces of lamb that just melted in my mouth. The garlic naan was fresh and fluffy, and everything was served hot and beautifully presented. The staff was so friendly and welcoming, and the service was quick without ever feeling rushed. You can really tell the food is made with love and authenticity. If you’re looking for delicious, authentic Indian food near downtown San Clemente or the San Clemente Pier, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommend Kiaan’s for anyone craving bold Indian flavors — I’ll definitely be back soon!

Really enjoyed all the dishes here. Made very well and very tasty. Really enjoyed the curry and Tika masala. And the naan bread was awesome! And the staff very friendly, attentive and on point. Highly recommend!

Absolutely amazing buffet! This was our second visit but buffet for the first time. We enjoyed Goat curry and garlic naan. Appetizers were paired with chutneys, sauces and nuts as well as fresh veggies. I highly recommend the buffet. Excellent service also! We will be back again on a Saturday very soon to enjoy Indian Chaat(Street) food along with the regular buffet!!

Wow. Ten stars. 🌟 The owner Amrit and their manager Araz and the entire staff are so kind. They helped us host a surprise birthday and accommodated our very large party and hosted us like family in their home. Their food was delicious and was made with so much love. It was obvious that the owner is also the amazing head chef. The quality of the Indian food here is unparalleled for all of southern California. It is rare to find such authentic Indian food anywhere. But beyond the food, they run this restaurant like they are inviting you into their own home. The kindness and care for our guests was unbelievable. One guest who was elderly tripped and fell and broke many plates…but the manager and servers quickly attended to the gentleman and made sure he was okay. They didn’t even think abou

Kian’s Indian Cuisine was a very disappointing experience. The food had no salt and lacked flavor overall. Nothing tasted good, and it was easily the worst dining experience I’ve had at an Indian restaurant. ( Not For South Indians)
