Chef Arango Indian Restaurant

Delivery review:Our in dining experience was always great. This was our first time getting delivery and everything was just as good! I forgot how much I love their lentil soup which comes with the meal for 2. Chicken Vindaloo is still our favorite. Pricing is reasonable, everything including the naan was delicious. Indian food travels well so this is a great option for pick up/delivery if you aren't able to dine in.

I've driven past this place a million times and have always been curious about whether it's any good. Today was the day I gave it a shot and I'm so glad I did. I got takeout but the tiny sitdown restaurant is adorable. It's no frills but very homey. I got the combination lunch with chicken korma, rice, naan, lentil soup and two traditional dipping sauces. For $22 (including tip) it's a lot of food and definitely enough for two people to split, or for an ample second serving. Everything was fresh and nicely packaged. The chicken korma wasn't the most interesting I've had but it was very respectable and I would order it again. Bottom line, I'll come back and if I lived closer, I'd be a regular.

Went to LA to visit my friend and Indian food is always our jam whenever we link up. She's a regular here and took me. We found parking across the street. Parking is street parking only. The service was incredible. Very friendly and made you feel like you were home and being served your friend's wonderful dishes. Between 4 dishes and 2 people, we couldn't finish everything. Even though the tikki masala has only 8 or 10 chicken chunks, it wasn't finished. Their paneer with spinach is sooo good. I love it. Quiet and quaint little spot with room for about 5 tables but not too warm or cold inside.

Love this place the korma and butter chicken are so rich and flavorful and amazing and the garlic naan wow I will definitely be back

I wanted to stop by this restaurant so many times and I decided to head in solo tonight! And I am so glad I finally did. I absolutely love Indian food and this place is a small cozy restaurant that is packed with absolute flavor! The lady at the front was so sweet as well! I can't wait to bring my family here and continue coming. Unfortunately parking is the only issue but it's well worth the food!

I was craving Indian food, so found this place nearby, they had pretty good review. I had Chicken Tikka Masala as it is one of the popular dishes. I wanted to like it, but it was too sweet for me. The rice was good, though. They don't have parking, so only street parking.

I ordered here on a whim, and man was I surprised. Hot, fresh, tender, savory, flavorful - ALL THE THINGS. It was so good, I had to run it back the next day, so I came to eat in person. It's a small place with a hole-in-the-wall look and feel. The lunch special is unbeatable. it's like $13.50 for most entrees and comes with papadum, rice, naan, and lentil soup. That naan, oh my god. I got plain one time and garlic another - both bussin'. The mango lassi is so tasty and refreshing.I'm only in LA for an internship and boy am I going to miss this place when I return home.

This is our favorite Indian Restaurant in LA! We first tried it one rainy day 2 years ago & was hesitant at first because of the location and the exterior of the restaurant but we are so glad we went and gave it a try. It is a small local Mom-and-Pop establishment and we are now regulars. Service is amazing! They check up on you from time to time and always check to refill your water. Food is delicious and so flavorful. They serve you papadam while waiting for your food. The green chutney sauce is great with it. We always get their chicken tikka masala with white rice and garlic naan. They have lunch specials from 10am to 4pm which are budget-friendly and good portions. Also, hands down the best mango lassi in town - we have it at least twice a month.

I found this place serendipitously through Uber Eats, and I was so astonished by the flavor, the savoring flavors and delish entrees that I made a trip all the way to the restaurant.I would usually not go to a restaurant like this! The restaurant is a hole in the wall, in a somewhat dilapidated corner with barely enough lights. This isn't a street I would walk late at night. Next to a Tattoo parlor, with neon lights. The restaurant itself is very ethnic with several posters, and an orange theme permeating throughout. The restaurant only has three tables, very lonely tables but alas this is the decor! I get a feeling of sadness when I see such an ambience. This establishment is only mostly for take out. But if you do ever come, you get additional appetizers. We got free samosas on the house! AJ and Norma were excellentThis was by far the strangest and most amazing find in all of Los Angeles! I had tried several Indian restaurants via Uber Eats and each missed the mark in some way. Most chicken tandooris were dry, some chicken tikka masala were not flavorful others the Biryanis didn't pack the punch.I was BLOWN away by the food here. The chicken tandoori, was moist, juicy and succulent, grilled on a bed of onions and herbs.The lamb biryani was by far the BEST I've tasted in Los Angeles. Succulent lamb shank pieces, with fried onions, green peas and the occasional pine nuts on rice with a concoction of spices. The hint of Turmeric replenishes your soul. And the chicken tikka masala and garlic nun. The food was flavorful and delicious, but you don't get that heavy post food coma feeling. This should from now on be your favorite Indian establishment. If you are debating via Uber Eats, then debate no more, the judges have decided, this is a winner folks

The best Indian place I've had in LA so far. Classic hole in the wall place with a sizeable menu and a no-frills atmosphere that allows for the flavors of the food to speak for itself. I've been twice already and will go back for sure.
