"If you love Indian food, and want convenience, this is the place. Priced reasonably, and portions are generous for the combos. The ladies that are at the counter are friendly, and answers any questions you may have. I've tried all the items in the front counter, and it's pretty good all around. If you get 2 item combo, that's a perfect portion for one adult. If you want to try one more item, just know that they put the third item in a tiny box separate. The combo comes with a serving of naan bread, and can be upgraded to garlic. Both is fine, I tend to stick to the traditional, as the food itself is very complex as it is. Just to clarify, complex as in, it's not the standard salt and pepper type of dish. Indian food is like a multi layered, warm, hearty dish of happiness. I sometimes order ala cart, 32 oz of Chicken Tikka Masala, just note the rice portion is tiny for the amount of Chicken dish you get. As others mention, if you don't specify extra rice, it's going to look odd. Yes, you will have to pay about $5 for extra rice portion. This place is good for anyone craving something different, something quick, and price reasonably. This is fast, authentic Indian food."
"In my head, I really thought I could eat all that by myself. Indian food is definitely a group project. Keep in mind It's probably not the healthiest idea to eat a whole Indian meal alone. I love Indian food leftovers five stars."

"If you're looking for great Indian food, here it be. Pro tip for dining out - order ahead of time to avoid long waits at the restaurant (it's happened a few times to me). The details... THE FOOD ELABORATION. - Chicken Tikka Masala | Chicken is slightly firm, but still very good. The masala sauce has a sweet and earthy flavor with layers of spicing. - Lamb Curry | Lamb cuts are beautifully tender, but a few were a little on the dry side. Their deeply flavorful curry sauce is spicy, but not grotesquely spicy. I'd order this again. - Saag Paneer | The slightly firm Indian cheese cubes are a great contrast to the meltingly creamy soft spinach. Garlicky and mildly spicy, this dish was definitely my favorite. - Garlic Naan | Soft, thin naan bread with garlic flavors. Perfect for dipping into the Saag Paneer. - Cheese Naan | Melted cheese is sandwiched in between the naan and while it's good, more cheese would've been better. #cheesefiend THE PARKING AFFAIR.Plenty of free parking in the shopping plaza. THE RETURN QUANDARY. Yes, I'm plotting my return visit soon. Saag Paneer all day, every day."
"Excellent service and food quality, thanks for the attentive checks on our needs Edward! The parking lot is partially full with the other businesses but Karma Lounge stands out as the central restaurant for large groups or intimate dates craving Indian food. We've been here several times and they have plenty of seating and the menu is robust with dishes for both meat lovers and vegetarians. I recommend the goat biriyani and garlic naan. Our friends who live nearby love to order takeout and always get the butter chicken. We have yet to try their weekend buffet, which includes free chai or lassi, but looking forward to taking advantage of that deal soon. They also make their ice cream in-house and Edward was sure to make it tempting to try, next time!"
"I came here to celebrate Lunar New Year after a recommendation from my coworkers and wow they did not disappoint!Their happy hour is a generous time of 5-7pm Monday- Thursday. We made a reservation on open table but we didn't need a reservation on a Wednesday around 6:30pm. They get really busy around 7pm.We got served by the owner and she gave us the background of the restaurant and how their recipes are based on a celebrity chef back in India. The appetizers are a decent size- we LOVED the crispy cauliflower and it had a kick. The chili paneer was good too (and on the happy hour menu). They have so many curries to choose from whether you like meat or veggies. At the end of our meal, the owner insisted we couldn't finish our Lunar New Year meal without a dessert so she sent one out on the house and even wrote Happy New Year on it! What a nice touch. 10/10 will be coming back for the good food and even better hospitality."
"I have so far only tried their small bite appetizers, so having not tried any mains you can trust my review maybe 75 percent ok? As of what I've had, the kitchen delivered tasty things all around. The food was flavorful and not too inventive. The owner is friendly and quick to serve. Inside, their decor is dark, candlelit and tidy. Some Indian restaurants I find to be really overrun by music playing far too loudly. Here, yes there's music and the expected music video playing, but it's not as overwhelming. This may be a repeat place, glad to say."
"Very friendly service. Came on a sat night and almost every table was full - cozy atmosphere and very friendly service (just had to ask for water refills, wished they were more proactive). Portions were very reasonable. They do have chicken korma even though it's not on the menu. Husband found the potato chaat appetizer too sweet and didn't like it - I appreciated it. Tandoori mix was great, and chicken korma was delicious too."
"$20 AYCE Indian lunch buffet with unlimited garlic naan, mango lassi (!!!!) and chai tea!! Huge selection of vegetarian and non-veg dishes, delicious buttery chicken tikka masala and the softest gulab balls. Service is fast and friendly, restaurant is very clean and spacious. We really love their tandoori and palak paneer. Husband enjoyed the goat curry! It is on Red Hill and 5, in the Ding Tea shopping center."
"Affordable prices. Decent food and quick service since you can simply have it to-go.This is more of a convenient to-go place with limited seating. I got the classic Chicken Tikka Masala with rice. Taste was expected and creamy. I would've liked the chicken to be more tender and soft. Garlic naan was made to order so it was warm wrapped in foil and dipped in the curry was perfection. They even give you a small side of dessert. Everything before taxes was around $10 so worth it for a 1 item lunch special."
"Nikki's always hits the spot! I don't even bother trying to find new Indian food restaurants because this IS the SPOT! Never disappoints and the service is always amazing and friendly"
"Best curry in town with good price. Quick service.We ordered Garlic Nann. 2 items plate: Chicken Tikka Masala & Goat Curry and Chicken Tikka Masala & Chicken Curry.If you like spicy, dont hesistate to ask the worker for Green Chili, those will make you sweat in this cold weather."
"This place used to be really good. Something changed about them. It's not quite the same. On a weekend I got vadas to try. These South Indian savory pancakes. Tasted tart like they used old flour mix. Waste of my money. Waste of my time. I did like this place for a long time."

My go to place for Indian food. There are one item, two item and three item combos that come with rice and naan. Garlic naan is extra but so worth it. Quick, affordable, and delicious.

Quickly seated at a clean table, restaurant is simply decorated. Water given right away with options of a hand held menu as well as a QR code. The service was average but since it was just the one guy on the floor doing everything, expediting, register..he did good. Each dish came with a flavor filled bowl of jasmine rice. We ordered the samosas which were on the greasy side but not overly so. The chutney accompanying them was refreshing and delicious. Garlic naan was really good too. We ordered saag paneer, tiki masala, curry chicken, butter chicken and chicken biriyani. Everyone enjoyed everything. Even my eight year old who has become a less adventurous eater filled and cleaned her plate. I must say that the butter chicken and biryani were my personal favorite. If you are in the area, don't hesitate to try them out for some delicious Indian cuisine.

Ambiance: Ate dinner on a Thursday night around 8pm and the place was nice and bright! You order your food at the counter and then if you're dining in, they'll bring your food to your table.Service: the only person working around the time was I believe the shop owner. He was super nice and even though we came a little near closing time, he was very attentive and told us to take our time and enjoy the meal! Even turned the tv and music on for us and always made sure our water glasses were full! He even packaged our food for us since we couldn't finish everything.Food: Food was delicious and at a great price! The shop owner made it himself, and though it took a bit of time, once the food came out, you could tell he wanted to present it well and made sure it was fresh! We got the chicken tikka masala with rice, garlic naan, and salad! Everything was amazing!! We also ordered mango lassis (my fave) and they were so creamy. Loved it! At the end, we were even surprised with chai tea after the big meal that was on the house! Will definitely be coming back!!

So thankful to the staff who let us in despite it being 10 minutes left before kitchen closing time in the afternoon (before reopening for dinner service). The service was extra quick yet still courteous. We made sure to tip well (we felt bad for cutting into the staff's lunch time...). Aside from that, their food was the most delicous Indian food I've had! I got the Puran chicken curry with rice and chili garlic naan. The Naan was sooo addicting. The spices in the food made everything so tasty that it's hard to stop eating until you're really full. I'd love to come back again!

I found this place when I went to get froyo froyo from the place next door last night and I smelt the food and knew I wanted to come here. The we got our food to go and it was packed very securely. Food was delicious and the staff were friendly. The interior of the restaurant is very cool looking and modern with nice moody lighting. I think next time we'll eat inside instead of to go :)

Incredible, fresh Indian food! We came on Christmas Day and tried the Sweet Potato Chaat, Saag Paneer, and Tikka Masala. Prices are high but this far superior to your average strip mall Indian food. I was blown away by the Sweet Potato Chaat. The tamarind chutney on the sweet potatoes had such an incredible, sweet and fragrantly spiced flavor.The restaurant is fresh and clean and very intimate. Service is very friendly, if slow, but that was probably because of the holiday. Looking forward to coming back soon!

Very affordable lunch Indian buffet with good quality of food.The parking lot is large. We found a parking without any issues. We came on a Sunday around 1pm, we got seated immediately. The restaurant looks clean, which is important. Staff was attentive. I liked that there is a drinks station. Come on! Can you can fill mango lassi? You can't find it easily at Indian buffet restaurants. All the curry was decent. I liked the egg rolls and the fried veggie which you don't usually see at Indian restaurants either. I will come back when I'm in the area again.

"The scent of curry and Indian spices greet you before you enter the market. It's a small market but insanely packed to the brim. I took my time and went up and down the spice aisle. There are a lot of great deals but I had to guess on the quality based off of packaging and presentation since I wasn't familiar with the brands. Great to try out spices for new recipes too, jars and bags start at a few bucks. Tons of imported British foodstuff, candy, and spices. It's by far the most reasonable retails on Cadbury! I snagged rolls of Fruitella for $1.75 which taste like a creamier less artificial Starburst. Small section for housewares, beauty, & medicine. I didn't comp shop it.Highlight of the market was restaurant in the back. You can get hot food a la carte and the naan is made fresh to order. The tandori chicken comes as a side option or you can buy a full cut up chicken as well. The employee was nice and said we could sample anything if we liked. We were in a pinch on time so I asked what was the top vegetable side and he suggested cheese & peas which was my youngest favorite. Chicken curry was just ok. The tikka marsala was a family favorite.Highly recommend if you're in the area! I think it's probably better to go anyway, the food is not very hot in spite that we ate there. It was perfect as leftovers! And they package everything up perfectly so there's no chance of spillage. Great customer service!!"
"OMG! First time there and it's a hidden amazing spot. The food was so rich in taste and delicious I literally cleaned my plate! Everything was fresh. The service was great and so polite! Loved it def coming back. Super casual no fuss and kinda empty for how great the food was' loved it"
"This is the spot I ended up after browsing all the other options at the packing house. Glad I did!!!!!I was drawn in because of the smells. I had the special of the day and added the garlic naan bread. So glad I added that naan!!!! It was pretty fast service, too."
"My favorite go-to spot for Indian food! I've been here about three times, and it never disappoints. This time, I ordered the samosas, butter chicken, and pita bread. Everything was fresh, hot, and very tasty. The ambiance was well-lit with music playing in the background at a good volume--not overly crowded. I really enjoyed the place and definitely recommend it! Waiters were very friendly, informative and attentive great customer service!"
"The food at Curry Lounge is so tasty. Parking is always easy to find and the people who work hear are always friendly. The dining room is fun and they serve food in unique metal plates. Love their extensive menu! I can't wait to come back to try something new."
"Fantastic restaurant. Friendly service, delicious food, and parking was not difficult to obtain. I did find it a bit odd that the menu did not appear to have any lamb options, but they made up for it by having a seemingly greater variety of sweet/dessert options than most Indian eateries I have visited!P.S.Probably a good idea to clarify requested spice levels during ordering, if you palate is used to fare on the milder side."
"My boyfriend's parents recommended this place to us :) I was a bit worried at first because the Yelp pictures didn't make it look that appetizing, but we gave it a try and the food was really good. Initially, it seemed like we might have ordered too little for the two of us, but we ended up having to take more than half of it to go. We'll definitely be back if we're craving Indian food again!"
"This has become hands down my favorite Indian restaurant lately and it's hard to believe that I haven't left a review for them sooner.The restaurant is located right across the street from the Anaheim Packing District with plenty of onsite parking.Tandoor Cuisine of India has locations throughout Southern California and the guy behind the counter informed me that they just opened a new location in Norwalk-LA.The restaurant itself is rather big inside and nicely decorated.My go to dish here is the Mushroom Marsala and the fried vegetables.The dish also comes with a large portion of steamed rice plus fresh made naan bread with every order.On top they will also give you a small container of their homemade milk rice which gives the meal a perfect ending.4.5 stars for reasonably priced and tasty food plus friendly service. I'II be back! Enjoy and Bon Appetit!"
"Yesss, I like. Granted, it doesn't have the sexiest name. And it's counter service. But the food? So good! The veggie samosas? Stop it, so great! And bonus: free with Yelp check-in. And the naan! The fluffiest! If you've been sleeping on it because of the boring marquee that plainly calls itself "INDIAN FOOD," then you're making a mistake. I am guilty of doing the same, but a colleague woke me up to it. I'm a dedicated fan of the flashier Indian restaurant down the street whose name evokes something zen, but considering the price point here, they can really go toe to toe. There must be some sort of connection, as I noted so many similarities between the two. If you love Indian food, go give 'em a shot. The newfound discovery will make you feel like you you're walking away with the winningest win."
"Called to check if there was outdoor seating on a weekend, they said yes. There may have been some language issues.Showed up for nihari buffet night on Wednesday and they said no outside seating. Didn't seem very busy inside and there's stone tables outside, but ok left without eating."
"A great local option for Indian food in our area, Masala Curry is a hidden gem that is consistently delicious. For starters, we frequently order food here via DoorDash -- their fish tikka masala is SO good and is one of my favorites! I believe it's only available as an entree on their dinner menu.It wasn't until recently that we started going to their location in-person for their lunch buffet. For what you pay, you get an excellent assortment of different appetizers, curries, veggies, and a couple desserts. After a couple plates I'm usually so full and satisfied! The garlic naan is always super flavorful, fresh and delicious. The inside of the restaurant is clean and the walls are decorated with interesting famous quotes -- a very charming place. Their workers are always very quick to serve us and are easy to flag down when we need something. Highly recommend this place and can't wait to go back!"
"We have been coming to Taal since they opened. The food is delicious. We love the chicken tikka, coconut lamb, butter chicken, samosas, naan, and almost everything else we've tried. The location is a little large for their volume, as half the restaurants isn't even being used. Usually there are only a few people dining in and we'll see a few people picking up takeouts. Today it was good to see more customers dining in. This location has turned over a few times so we would love to see Taal succeed. If you're looking for Indian food or just good food, be sure to give Taal a try."
"Ambiance and Decor - 5Service - 4Food - 3Value - 2I'm torn on Shor. It's a beautiful restaurant and very fitting for a nice night out. But we tried calling and they didn't pick up the phone at first and wouldn't take reservation. Most mains are fairly priced, maybe a couple of dollars over an average Indian restaurant but some items on the menu seemed pricey. A soda was $5, but a craft soda was $10. Spirit Free Cocktails are $15 (no alcohol). Limca (bottle soda) - This was really flat with no carbonation. It's like a cross between Squirt and 7 Up in taste. I would not get this again.Dahi Puri - I haven't had this dish before at other places so I won't compare it. It came in a crispy edible cup that had a plop of yogurt with tamirand, chutney, cumin seeds and spiced potatoes. There was a lot going on here and it was balanced. Fun to eat but can be messy if you bite at the wrong angle and the yogurt starts flowing out. Handle it, you can do this!Mantu - This was a dumpling/rice paper roll dish that had spicy ground beef in the middle. The dish tasted good, but nothing that necessarily distinguished itself as must get. Goat Cheese Kulcha - Loved this one. Naan that has goat cheese inside, grilled with parmesan cheese on the outside all with some truffle oil and butter sauce. A sinful cheese pie. Garlic Naan - It is a thicker naan served whole and uncut. Cooked perfectly, crispy and chewy. Could use a little more garlic oil sauce on it. More garlic please!Chicken Tikka Masala - The sauce base on this was rich and slightly creamy with good spiciness. The chicken in this dish was dry and probably overcooked. This is something that can be easily fixed to make this a very good dish.Paper Dosa ($16, add masala potato +4) - Full size large dosa was cooked right, crispy but not burnt. I love dosas and this one was good, but most places charge about $12-$15 for this dish with the curry potato filling. Here that will set you back $20. Friends in my party ordered other dishes but I didn't get to try them all. The food quality is fresh and good and presentation is great, but does not differentiate itself enough taste wise for me to point people here as a destination restaurant over your local favorite Indian sit down place. If you want a great ambiance and are in the area, give Shor a try. Do also know that they automatically add 20% service charge to your bill so no need to add extra tip unless you want to."
"Arrived here solo for a to-go meal because I was craving some Mediterranean food on a Friday night. Decided to get the Chicken and Beef Kebab plate and was a little disappointed in the meal. The plate came with one chicken kebab, one beef kebab, rice, and some salad. I thought the salad would be something better but it was just a plain ole salad you can buy from the store... pricing for this plate was not the best about $15 before tip. Other than that flavor of the meat was decent but would probably not come back if I wanted Mediterranean food again."
"It was a quiet Friday night when I stopped in around 8pm on my way home. Fortunately, it meant getting my takeout order pretty quickly. I tried their butter chicken (spicy 4-mild( and the garlic naan. As well as an order of their samosas (2 to an order). Everything is delicious! One of the best samosas I've e joyed. So much flavor. The butter chicken had a rich creaminess, but did not feel too rich. I enjoyed it with the rice. Generous serving sizes so I enjoyed it for a few meals. I also received their complimentary rice pudding. Thank you so much for your hospitality. Definitely will be back to try more from their menu."
"Best for Saag Chicken and mixed Tandoori platter. I've been coming here since 1998 and still the best Pakistani and Indian food."
"We tried to place a phone order for takeout but were unable to for some reason so we had to go in person to order/come back to pick up. Service is otherwise fast and our large food order was ready in 30 minutes. The entrees come with basmati rice which was nice! I'm hoping this location will have lunch specials in the future for lower prices. From what we ordered the Butter Chicken was our favorite but the Chicken Sukka is quite spicy! The flavor is still good but beware if you can't handle spice."
"My first thought walking up was "hmm" (not bad just interesting lol) as i was not sure what i was expecting walking up but the restaurant was different than i assumed. The restaurant is inside a Comfort Inn hotel and basically consists of a handful of tables (from what i could see there may have been another seating area but unsure) attached via stairs to the "continental breakfast" room of the hotel and has outdoor seating couches as shown in images on Yelp! It was not what we were expecting in the slightest lol - the employees were very kind and helpful and explained that the majority of the menu is gluten free so if you see a "(G)" it actually meant it had gluten (we completely had that backwards before asking). We tried the fried Cauliflower (Desi Gobi Manchurian) as an appetizer which was really good however could have used slightly more crispy (8/10); we also got the chicken Tikka Masala which was delicious (9/10) however could have used more chicken and the chicken Biryani - this was our first time trying this and the spices were very good we just weren't a fan of a seed that's in the recipe that has a strong bitter like flavor when you bite into it. Avoiding whatever the seed was - another good item!! Lots of people think "hotel in a comfort inn??" But it's worth a try absolutely!!"
"Best Indian food I've ever had, they definitely add something extra you don't find at a lot of Indian spots but some days are better than others for the lunch buffet which is to be expected as that's the nature of the lunch buffet. This place really made me fall in love with saag paneer though, it's amazing here, as is everything they serve really. Even the desserts are something special. Hours can be a little weird, sometimes they aren't open as early as google maps/yelp says (often times noon instead of 11) but it's worth the wait. I think Tuesdays they are often cleaning and don't offer the buffet so I'd recommend calling and asking ahead of time before you make the trek out."
"I stopped by Ambala Sweets and Spices in Anaheim, thinking this was the same sweet shop that is in Little India (Cerritos). The inside of the store seemed to be, as they had the similar/same kind of menu with a display case of sweets as well as snacks. I asked the woman working there if it was and to my HORROR she said no. As it turns out the one in Cerritos is called Ambala Sweets & Snacks. How deceptive! Is this even legal? I figured since I am here I might as well as get some sweets to try. So I picked up a selection of mithai (India sweets).Mithai (Indian Sweets- $13 lb.) - First off this is $3 a lb. more than the Ambala in Cerritos. I got Pistachio burfi and Milk cake. I was assured by the lady working there that they were soft. Nothing could be further from the truth. The mithai wasn't soft and didn't seem super fresh like the ones I had at the other location.Overall, I was so disappointed with the Indian sweets here. It wasn't fresh and also way over priced. I don't know how this place can have almost the same name as the other place."
"Chicken tika masala pizza is absolutely delicious! I had to stop myself from eating the whole pizza! Super quick preparation of the pizza 100/100 thank you so much for sharing your pizza!"
"Omg the butter chicken So rich snd flavorful. I love how they also put bell peppers in it. We also got the garlic naan, which went so perfectly with the butter chicken. The garlic naan is moist, has a nice char to it, and just the right amount of chewiness. 10/10 recommend"
"Great food cooked fresh with good portion size. Def a stand out Indian place. Fun decor with Bollywood posters ever and service friendly and attentive staff."
