We ordered the Korma and Coconut chicken curry and they were both delicious! Paired with rice and garlic naan, AMAZING! The service was great and the ambiance is so nice. You each have your own booth and it's both intimate and lively. The owner has been here 45 years and it's family owned! I've met the owner and he is so sweet as well! Will always come back!

Quite possibly the best Indian food I've ever had. My wife is Indian, I've had Indian food for years, and I swear people... this is hands down is one of the top Indian restaurants. Give this place a try. You won't regret it!

Just had lunch with my girlfriends - the food and service were amazing (it's been at least 8 years since we've been here). We had appetizers and lunch including samosas, chicken tikka, lamb tikka, chicken tikka marsala, mushroom baaji, vegetable korma, and garlic naan. It was all delicious! The service was lovely - our server, Anamul, was courteous and accommodating. I would definitely come again (the 40 minute drive was worth it!)! They even gave us free samosas and dessert! YES!!!!

Best Indian restaurant in Los Angeles. I came here many times and each time it had been great.

Quality spot for Indian food with a huge menu and some dishes you won't find at all Indian places. I like the mix and match between curries and proteins. Masala fries were the only miss for me and service was not the most attentive but will be coming back to try more menu items.

This is a great LA local restaurant! When you eat here, you feel like family. Many times while we were there, the owner of the restaurant came over to personally check in on us. He even treated us to a free dessert. The dishes are large. The food is delish. The place was very clean. The whole time, they had nonstop to go orders. I would definitely order from here again or eat in.

This was the BEST Indian food I have ever had!!! We went in during lunch time and there was only one person working so the service was a bit slow. However, the food was well worth the wait because we could not stop eating once we got the food. The mint & cilantro chutney was also so good -- I think our table used up 2 refills of it. I would recommend to anyone doing a bit of shopping near Melrose for a pleasant surprise. Our Dishes: Butter Chicken (10/10): This was insanely good, especially with a side of Garlic and Cheese Naan. Unbeatable. Chicken Tandoori (7/10): Good but could have done without. Definitely wasn't as good as the saucier options.

To get to five stars we need something unique and different we haven't had before. This is pretty solid northern Indian food prepared for American tastes. Flavors are solid and predictably delicious. Chicken Tikka masala is sweeter. Like bbq sauce almost. I would not repeat on this. The chicken was dry. The korma sauce is savory and almost like a gravy. Very tasty and worth a repeat. Naan bread was cooked to perfection. The tamarind sauce was amazing. A bit spicy and had great depth of flavor. The cilantro chutney was perfection. The chai took awhile to arrive. Actually we had finished our meal and I was writing this review before it showed up. I heard lots of "sorry your food is taking so long" types of comments. Busy but reasonable wait in food tbh. Nothing out of the ordinary with service. There seemed to be plenty of start and lots of seating from groups of 2 to 10. I'd come again and perhaps try the coconut curry or something more unique. Parking was a pain in the ass. The end
