overpiced as all indian food tends to be but was pretty good. the chicken makhani stains my hands more orange than a gamer's and the tikka massala is a little too nutty for me.overall not half bad.

10 stars. Been in La 8 years. This is the best indian food. I used to drive 30 min to Mint Leaf in Pasadena but this place is better. Have been coming for a few months now. Faves are Matar Paneer, Chicken Makhani, Chicken Tikka Masala, and Keema Naan. Will not disappoint. Best for takeout imo.

Amazing place and the food is delicious. It was my first time and let me tell you customer service is amazing. Definitely going back soon.

Stop reading start driving! This place is magnificent! the flavors and spice levels are exactly what I thought it would be, I don't know why I didn't come in here sooner... I was always skeptical about Indian food but oh my God this is one of my new favorite places to dine in the Los Angeles area the customer service is absolutely amazing as well as the location being well kept. Try the tikka masala and the shrimp vandalou you won't be disappointed

I ordered the shrimp pakora and sautéed mushrooms. Awful. The mushrooms were cooked with ketchup, yes people; ketchup. And the shrimps are just battered shrimps, the ones that you can buy frozen at the super market. Oh and the tamarind chutney and mint chutney were just water to be honest. Think it twice if you wanna order from here.

I’ve ordered from here many times and always been so full and satisfied that writing a review seemed like an impossible task. I’ve summoned all my will power just to say this place is incredible. It’s the most unassuming little restaurant in a strip mall but every single dish I’ve ordered has been genuinely impressive and beautifully balanced. I ordered an entirely vegan meal this time and am overwhelmed with satisfaction and a full stomach. Thank you for always being great.

Amazing food! One of my top Indian spots near Silverlake.

One of my favorite restaurants in all LA. We've been ordering for years. We've only had the vegetarian options. Sag paneer, any of the korma's, any of the curries, the matar paneer, aloo gobi, all favorites. And you learn what it all means as you go. Sag = spinach. Paneer = cheese. Korma = almond cream sauce, I think. Aloo = potato, Gobi = cauliflower, so on and so forth. There's English translations and pictures to help but we didn't know that at first. We would simply order the House Veggie Combo for Two and select dishes at random. It was all scrumptious. Now we know what we're doing and what our favorites are. The Combo for Two is enough for four people or two people for multiple meals. Not kidding. The portions are generous. But get an extra naan. Its enough food that you'll always need more naan. And its REAL naan, not the weird dense cake you get from Vons. Also, the rice pudding is good. Reminds me of arroz con leche.

Foods are delicious, and friendly environment .
