INDIAN FOOD REINVENTED!
Love the idea. I believe this location used to be chipotle and was changed into chipotle with indian food. Food is nice as well. parking can be challenging depending on... read more when u visit.
Basically, it is more or less like chipotle with items to pick such as chicken tikka,chicken or lamb curry or paneer tikka either in a bowl or burrito or salad bowl.
We tried Paneer tikka bowl and Chicken tikka and lamb curry bowl and they were very good. Tacos were ok to me though and Salad bowls were also very good
Certainly place to try to see if u like itDevi B.
6/29/2022Very tasty Indian food with quick service. Its setup is similar to Chipotle. Since I'm a novice to Indian food the person behind the counter explained the selections to me.... read more I had a rice bowl with Chicken Marsala and I got to choose the toppings. My friend had a vegetarian burrito that he loved. Their soda and drinks were also yummy. They were unique flavors and organic. I had Orange and Cardamom. Sounds weird but was so good. I tasted my friend lemongrass soda. That too was delicious. I highly recommend trying this unique spin on Indian food. We will definitely be back!

6/29/2022S&C is a brilliant concept.
I call it the Chipotle for Indian food.
I have now tried their chicken tikka masala and paneer tikka masala bowls.
Both were delicious and value for... read more money.
Love the ambiance and enjoy eating both lunch & dinner at the San Jose outlet next door from the Casino Matrix.
They have an extensive selection of Indian sauces, curries, spices, salads, rice, tortillas and even thin sev.
One of my favorite lunch places...!Aditya G.
6/27/2022This place was decent and has a lot of potential, but there's just way too many options. Being a first timer it was difficult knowing what sauces goes with what... read more and in the end it just turns into a hodgepodge of a stew. Wish there were set combinations of sauces or fewer options. Needs to stop trying to be chipotle and embrace its uniqueness. Have preset options and another section for extra toppings. Flavors individually were really good though. Would go again just get the very very minimum.

6/25/2022My third review here but not my third time going but I will say Sam and curry has definitely improved as my last visit happened to be a fluke with... read more the bad paneer I got.
I went back and got all my favorites - white rice, salad, paneer, corn, with all the sauces on the side. It was delicious, especially paired with the lemongrass fountain soda which tastes just like a lychee drink.
Here's the trick with Sam and Curry, the flavors can get overwhelming and turn into a flurry of spice if you add everything to your bowl and say yes to everything. I'd recommend sticking with 2-3 sauces and chutneys and asking for them on the side to get a more chipotle feel and to be able to taste the flavors individually.
Overall it's definitely a unique take on fast food Indian and I'm around so I'll definitely be back.Shirin B.

I had Three roti tacos, two lamb curry and one chicken, with chili lime corn- Burrito bowl with spice rice, saag, channa, potato onion curry, tamarind chutney, and red chili chutney. All their sides and add ins are great too. I would highly recommend this place!

6/20/2022You can get full for $10 so I see the appeal but they stopped serving naan / roti and use tortilla instead. For us that's a big part of choosing... read more to come here, so it was a let down unfortunately.
The toppings and bases were good, I thought the lamb was good too but the paneer was chopped up finely instead of in chunks which was weird.
Overall a fun idea but not the execution we were hoping for.Selena S.
6/19/2022Stopped in on a drive back from Gilroy Gardens. Very easy parking and tables available inside and outside on a Sunday evening. Definitely reminded me of chipotle but for Indian... read more food and tasted better. We did a rice bowl with Tikka Masala and three taco plate. You get to add anything you want and they were very generous with portions. We tried several of the meat options and were good from the lamb curry, chicken curry, and chicken Tikka. Everything felt and tasted fresh and I especially loved the roti they used on the tacos. They do sell beer and a variety of unique non-alcoholic drinks. Overall a good value for what you get and we definitely had leftovers. I wish there was a location in the East Bay but regardless will be back next time we are in town.
