Naan Stop

A fast food version of the standard Indian lunch buffets, you can order complicated meals, or more commonly you can grab a 1 item bowl or 2 item plate. All the standards are here, Chicken Tikka Masala, Vegetable Korma, Chicken Vindaloo, Chana Masala, Saag Paneer, etc. They do variaties of naan that are good and fresh, and the owner who frequently works the register is very nice.
You can eat in, they have a sauce stand for the mint chutney, etc you may want, and some cramped seating for those stopping in for a quick lunch. There's a small shared parking lot as well, making it convenient for lunch even if you have to drive in from outside Isla Vista. Alternatively they do take out, providing separate sauce and rice containers to make it easier to transport, and have both GrubHub and DoorDash.
The prices are very good, it's slightly on the less expensive side for a lunch in the IV area.

Love Naan Stop, an old favorite. I used to come here all the time when I was younger. Had an opportunity to pick some up today for the first time in a very long time, and I must say that it is just as good as I remember. And now I feel like I have been neglecting this IV gem. One of the last of the old, long running restaurants. I truly hope that the gentrification of Isla Vista won't make Naan Stop go. I have loved every dish I've tried here.

Great fast-food Indian fare at excellent prices. Lots of vegetarian options for those inclined. And their Naan is fantastic, as you might expect. Highly recommended.

One of the best Indian restaurant in town! Great selection of chicken plates for all kind of customers, those you love spicy food, or those you prefer mild. The naan bread was delicious and fresh made. We tried the garlic one , and we loved it. Naan Stop will definitely be our favorite place to eat Indian food.

Great authentic Indian food. Super delicious. Owner is very friendly and generous. Wide range of menu options and reasonable prices. My favorite place to get food in Isla Vista.
