“ The food was well-prepared, with classic Indian flavors shining through. The curries were flavorful, the naan was soft, and the biryani had a nice balance of spices. If you're looking for a solid Indian meal without any surprises, this place is a reliable choice. It may not be the most extraordinary Indian restaurant, but it delivers a satisfying and enjoyable meal. ”
“ My family has eaten here 3 times and we have liked everything we ordered. The samosas are the best in town, and so is the flat bread. We like it spicy, but their hot is not super spicy. Service was friendly, and they are open late. We'll be back for more! ”

“ Food Critic Review: Desi Flames and Sweets – A Rare Culinary Treasure in Turlock, with Just a Pinch of Wait time Tucked away in the heart of Turlock, Desi Flames and Sweets stands out as a true gem—a humble eatery that delivers an experience rarely found outside of a home kitchen. In a market crowded with either greasy takes or overpriced novelty, this restaurant serves food that feels both deeply traditional and refreshingly wholesome.

Highlights include the Mooli Paratha, brilliantly crafted with ajwain (carom seeds) to balance flavor and digestion—proof of the kitchen’s thoughtful attention to detail.

Every bite reflects a quiet culinary intelligence that elevates even the most familiar dishes without losing their soul. While the wait time may be longer than expected, it’s a reflection of the care behind each order.

“ all food testey am recommend visit and try food don’t believe any bad reviews ”
“ I never thought my life would change so drastically like it did on Wednesday, November 27, 2024. Before then I did not realize I was so incomplete, deprived. I am never going to forgive myself for allowing me to go through 27 years of my life on this planet without ever tasting such delicious food. On Wednesday, my life changed when I walked inside Desi Flames & Sweets. I was shown another reason to live when I tried their chicken tikka masala, their chicken biryani, their garlic Naan, and their drinks. I have yet to try other things on their menu, but you best bet ya god damn bottom dollar I am coming right back for more (and i did like 2 days later. The pictures are from the second time B) ). I am forever your customer, Desi Flames and Sweets. Thank you for everything. ”
“ Food was great and tasty. I have tried Indian food in Modesto at Tandori Flame and in a few places in Ceres. I like this place the best. Food was not overbearing with food spices. The spiciness level was great as well. Hot was spicy but still enjoyable. I would go back ”
