Beyond Biryani

We returned for the second time in two weeks to try other dishes! This time we had the chicken 65 biryani and lamb rogan gosh, both mild spice (for me), and garlic naan. Food is fresh and worth the wait as the flavors are amazing! Just the right amount of heat to cause sniffles but not blow your head off. Service was excellent as well; our waitress returned frequently to refill our water and bus plates. We'll be returning to try other dishes!Note: Loma Linda and VA employees get 5% discount with ID, which helps to offset the 4% surcharge of using a credit card.

A must try Indian restaurant!Reviewed on 02/14/25#Introduction-This is a Punjabi-Indian restaurant. Just started this family business 3 months back. They serve common & popular Indian dishes alongside some authentic Punjabi dishes. As an Indian Asian, this is a top class restaurant for me.#Quality & experience-The food quality is of course excellent, the taste of the dishes are extremely flavorful. The person who took our order and the servers are awesome. If you don't know anything about the dishes or have a specific desire for a dish or taste, take their help. They'll guide you to enjoy your meal satisfaction. If you want to try out Punjabi based Indian food or a first timer for Punjabi food, this is your restaurant. For other regular & popular Indian dishes, this is me & my family member's new best favourite restaurant.The restaurant area is clean & tidy. Have seperate restroom for men & ladies. They are well kept & cleen. Have plenty of sitting area for small to very large groups.#Menu & price-They have long & diverse menu items! Not typical simple Indian menus. Both veg & non-veg items. So, you might not be able to know the dish from the name, how it is prepared, what is/are in it & the process time of the dish. If you have a big appetite, then 1 order is more than enough.The "Thali" is more than enough to fill-up an adult tummy. Their serving portion is the same like other Indian restaurants.Their "Lamb Chop" is a must must & must try..For me their price is everage. Not too costly nor less compared to the food & quality & experience we have enjoyed.#Business hours-Monday they are closed for the whole day.Their regular business hours are from 11 am to 9:30 pm. on Tuesday to Sunday.From 11 am to 10:30 pm. on Friday & Saturday.But, like most Indian restaurants, they stay closed everyday from 3pm to 5pm.#Location-Located in a nice and quiet part of Loma Linda city. close to the I-10 freeway. In a very beautiful area. It has a nice view of the green beautiful Loma Linda area.Inside the restaurant we felt very comfortable & the vibe was cozy.Has a lot of free parking & is wheelchair accessible.

Such a cute place in Redlands. It's a mix of North and South Indian food. I was surprised that they had mandi, which is technically a Yemeni dish. It was quite tasty though. Went with friends and tried half of their menu. If you can't take spicy food, this is not your place. Even if you order mild, it will still come spicy. My friend had her palak paneer to go Their Chana Chaat is one of the best dishes on the menu. Highly recommend. Their gulab jamun was a very different version of what I'm used to. Not my favorite. Their grilled meats were good. Recommend! I missed a bit more of the flavor and could do without the huge amount of heavy cream in the Chicken Tikka Masala- it was beige/cream color instead of the regular creamy tomato color. Mango Lassi was very thick and very tasty. Service was attentive and very friendly. Thank you Shout out to the older gentleman who kept on checking on us!

This new spot took over the old taco place. Big storefront with the left side big enough for banquet style events and right side for casual dine in. Was advised it would take about 20 minutes and they were right. It took about 25 minutes in total. I walked the interior while waiting. The restrooms are located on the banquet side of the restaurant. There are a few stone benches out front if you prefer outside seating. All in all, their menu is vast and beyond biryani (has both meat & vegetarian options) which is a nice differentiator to many other Indian restaurants in the area. I hope with practice they're able to be more consistent on the salt level and better portioning.I ordered three dishes to-go, one appetizer and two mains. The Gobi Manchurian appetizer for $13 came in the smallest container. I counted 5 pieces of cauliflower (battered and fried Gobi) with large pieces of white onion and green bell peppers. While the crunch of the Gobi was excellent, this dish was too small of a serving than I am used to for the price and VERY SALTY. For the two mains I ordered the Masala dosa (which comes with a savory sipping soup called sambar). This one is better eaten in person. My mistake on taking this home because it was soggy by the time I opened it up. Good flavor, but just not as enjoyable as fresh off the pan. The sambar was tasty. A little on the spicy side (as it should be) and not overly salted (thankfully). Typically my favorite dish, the baingan bharta was the worst dish. Not only was the eggplant mash not flavorful with a Smokey aroma, it seems their take on this dish is straight up 90% chopped onions and green peas. The excessive onions made the dish overly sweet. I may have to jazz this one up a bit because the flavor was just not there (needed more spices AND SALT). The extra garlic naan I ordered was standard garlic naan.

Easy access parking, in a large parking log with large spaces.This Indian restaurant is new and replace a prior Mexican restaurant.The menu has many authentic Indian dishes not seen from other restaurants in the area.Particularly the Mutton dishes are amazing. They are cooked at the right tenderness and the meat flavor is going to keep you coming back.The sause, spice and season keeps thing fresh and you don't get the bloated and dry mouth feeling after the food. Which means they must not use MSG or other additives.Overall great new Indian restaurant that provides a fresh take and high qaulity food. Will be back again.

First time here was very impressed by the the appearance and menu and heard a lot of good things about this place from my daughter so was very excited. They have really very diverse menu and service is good . May be it was late in the night and many customers still in the restaurant service was little slow but very attentive. I did not like my dish was very dry and kind of burnt and I was told it is always like that . Oh come on I had that dish many time and it is not that dry or burnt. The non veg thali was very good I need to try other menu items for sure and I will be back here many times for sure .

Food was delicious! I recommend the Royal Thali if you wanna try a little bit of everything. Service was good, not a big fan of the rose lassi, it was too watery and not quite sweet enough. But would definitely return to try other food on the menu! also Loma Linda employees get a discount!

The selections on the menu are far more diverse than the other local options and I'm looking forward to trying them all. So far, I've tried the staples of chicken tikka masala and garlic naan, which were both the best I've had in the IE!

Definitely delicious taste and the food the dish off fish incredible taste in great customer service and the best food Indian cuisine originated loved it and I will go back anytime soon!!!

Food: The food was ok. I was a born Hyderabadi brought up eating authentic Hyderabadi dum biryani every other day. I could say, I cannot compare this with authentic Hyderabadi dum biryani, but this is definitely better compared with surrounding local north Indian restaurants where most of them don't even know what authentic Hyderabadi biryani vs pulao is. They also need to work on portions sizes as they are a bit small. Location and ambiance are good Service: They definitely have room for improvement (understaffed) as I always saw one or two persons running all the time shuffling with customers and phone ordersMenu: Menu can be simplified to only put items which are really available but not just virtually on the menu
