The India Restaurant

In the mood for Indian food, we decided to check out The India Restaurant since we planned to get groceries at 99 Ranch across the street after dinner. While the parking lot for The India Restaurant was small, we managed to find a spot fairly easily.As soon as we walked in, we noticed the lovely and stately decor. The interior is bright and refined, with friendly service. Papadam and both mint and tamarind chutneys were brought to the table shortly after being seated.Prices are quite fair and we ordered samosas, butter chicken, bengan bharta (eggplant), lentil soup, and garlic naan. Entrees are served with rice, which can be refilled. While all of the food was solid and tasty, I also did not find anything extraordinary. I ordered everything mild but wanted a little bit of heat so in retrospect should have opted for medium spice level. Overall, no complaints.

When my friend mentioned that we were going to get some Indian food I was super excited. I asked her where and she said India. Huh? I was not expecting an elegant looking restaurant because the plaza looked like your typical boring plaza but the inside looked and felt like a nice posh restaurant.The service was great but something about this place was kinda suspect. The plates were all chipped, the silverware wasn't clean and the water wasn't clear. It had some floaties. Besides that, the food was amazing, but not memorable. It was solid Indian food. Would I come back? Probably not. I would probably try other spots instead.

Chicken Malai and garlic naan were excellent attentive service but language barrierClean restroom

Quick service and quiet ambiance. Appetizers were meh - Keema was dry, tasteless in a huge samosa but Tawa mushroom had good spice. Everything on the main course tasted good, especially Methi chicken. We ordered Gajar ka halwa and Mango Kulfi for dessert. They were OK nothing stood out.

Delicious and modern Indian food. Every single item we had at this restaurant was packed with flavor. I particularly enjoyed the fish (forgot the name already.. but it was a traditional fish they had that comes as fried pieces). The curries also come in as single portions or for share portions. If you get the single meal, it comes in a lunch tray. Small restaurant but plenty of seating.Restaurant is located in Little India in Cerritos. Would recommend!

My friends and I came to the India Restaurant for dinner and it did not disappoint! I ordered the butter chicken with garlic naan. Both were so delicious!! The sauce for the butter chicken was hearty and comforting and just *chefs kiss*. They let you customize the spice levels and I got the spiciest level, which wasn't as spicy as I expected it to be, but it was still really enjoyable. The garlic naan was the perfect complement to the butter chicken and it just went so darn well dipped in its sauce. The restaurant itself looks pretty unassuming from the outside but is actually really nice on the inside and gives off classy vibes. Service was friendly as well. It is located in a small plaza with a decent amount of parking. Overall, I'd recommend the India Restaurant and will be back when the Indian food craving hits!

Delicious food, excellent service, appropriate serving sizes, and a complementary Papadums for the table. The restaurant feels authentic and clean.

My husband got the dinner combo and I got the chana masala (vegetarian curry section). You definitely get more bang for your bucks with the combo. They allow allow free garlic naan sub with the combo. Service was top notch. Restaurant was clean and we'll lit. Plenty parking. We would come back.

As requested by our son, we had lunch here to celebrate his 17th birthday. He loves Indian cuisine, and this is the perfect setting to celebrate his special day.We have been here before eight years ago, and I believe they have extensively remodeled their interior. It looks even more upscale than before. The chandeliers!The food tasted exquisite, and the butter chicken was rich and creamy. The saag paneer was also smooth and delicious. I even tried their okra, and it was well seasoned and refreshing.Their service was exception and extremely attentive. We never had a chance to completely empty our water glass because it was constantly refilled. We beat the lunch time crowd by arriving around 11:30 am. By noon, the entire restaurant was filled on a Sunday.We will be back to celebrate another special occasion.

We were visiting Cerritos and Artesia is not far so we decided to try Indian food. We used to go to Farsan Mart and this time I wanted to try something different. But we ended up with the similar dishes we usually eat as we don't know much about other menus. 1. ServiceVery very very kind. I didn't expect that much. Also very professional. 2. PriceI personally think it is reasonable. 4 adults, 1 kid, 1 baby= below 100$ and everyone was full.3. FoodGoat biriyani: hard to scoop rice because there were too much goat meat! Lamb saag: tasty but a bit salty for me, to be honest.Chicken tikka masala: perfectAssorted appetizers: i love it. I would say this was my favorite as i could try different types of food and i liked all.
