Ambrosia India Bistro
565 Abrego St., Monterey

Readers have made it a habit to vote Ambrosia the best Indian cuisine in Monterey County. Founded in 2007 downtown Monterey, it also has branches in Aptos, Los Gatos and Scotts Valley. In addition to obvious Indian classics, such as butter chicken, one can explore more regional favorites like vegan aloo parantha (stuffed flatbread with potatoes and spinach) or mulligatawny soup made of lentils, coconut milk and curry leaves. For an American all-you-can-eat flair, Ambrosia offers a lunch buffet, too.
