Delightful dining experience! The staff & owners were charming, helpful, and kind – but…. the stars of the restaurant are the chefs! Everything was soooo gooood! We have enjoyed their food as take out previously, and loved it. Let me tell you – DINE IN! It is so vibrant, aromatic & the Laccha Paratha just baked, crisp, & with the perfect bite/chew is krey-vuh-buhl. The Special Grilled Lamb Chops were spiced & cooked to perfection. The Chicken Butter Makhani was velvety with a great kick – The Lamb Vindaloo was tender and flavorful. My very favorite dish was their Saag Paneer – they use fresh spinach & it takes it to the next level! The atmosphere is bright, warm & inviting. I look forward to many more wonderful meals here with friends & family ❤️

I’m so dissatisfied and disappointed in this place. We ate at the restaurant once before and it was fine. Today I ordered for pick up and I honestly believe because I didn’t tip they pushed my order pick up time to a later time, my food was not sealed properly causing it to leak out into the bag, my car, and all over me. Very upset. The portion sizes are already small for the price and now part of it is gone. They were also rude when picking up. No eye contact, just handed me the bag. In most cultures this is disgraceful. Will not be coming here again. What a shame. Take a class in customer service before opening up a restaurant.

Great service, delicious food. Newly relocated from LA to Montrose, Cardamom is very tasty. The food is made to order, and features delicious top tier ingredients. You can taste the difference there. Plenty of indoor seating, and a hand full of outdoor tables. The restaurant features great staff, well versed in the menu, and constantly attentive, and going above and beyond for a great customer service. Parking is available nearby, and outdoor dog friendly. We got lamb vindaloo (very spicy, and tasty), chicken Masala (creamy and tasty), garlic nan (delicious and light), saffron rice (not a huge upgrade over the plain rice), and the vegetable samosas (very light and crispy; not oily!). The food was very good. They also treated us to complimentary rice pudding. They are working through the process of getting the final touches up (signage, and art). They have redone the kitchen and interior (previously a chinaware restaurant). Very friendly staff, and rooting for their success. Was busy when we arrived, but we were able to be seated instantly. One area to possibility improve is portions; this place is a bit pricey, and the portions are smaller (as compared to our favorite spot Indian’s Flavor). But the quality is great, and they do offer outdoor seating!

Weird experience overall. I’ve been to a few Indian places but I’m by no means an expert, so you don’t have to take my word for it. I found my korma curiously sweet, sweeter than I expected, sweeter than usual. I guess i tend to prefer my Indian food on the garlicky side? I dunno. I’m not even a spice guy and I found this on the boring end of spicy. The vegetables looked like a frozen or canned medley. However, the naan was excellent and fluffy with just the right crispness where it needed to be.

My friend from Alhambra recommended this restaurant (even though we’re the ones that live close, in La Canada), Cute clean interior, service was warm and friendly and the food was excellent: We ordered vegetable samosa, shrimp and fish curry, Cardamom salad and mixed veggies- everything was flavorful and fresh: We’ll def be back. Rice pudding was on the house since we were first time customers and it also was excellent- perfect texture and flavor.

Got there at ll:00am today after checking hours on Google. Says 11:00am. Lights off chairs upside down on tables. Checked Google again maybe closed on Tuesday ? Guy appears in window holding up 5 fingers. Guessing that means 5 mins ? 11:18 still setting up outdoor seating. Finally one guy waves us in. Immediately the other guy stops us says not ready. 20 min drive wasted. Tired of waiting dined across the street. Assumed if you open at 11:00 am that means all systems are a go. Not we open at 11:00 to set up for a half hour

Fan of Indian food, so I decided to get takeout with chicken tikka masala, naan and samosas. The tikka masala flavor is subtle, and not overbearing. The naan was pretty good compared to other places. Chutneys were excellent – very flavorful and complementary with the naan. Overall, the meal was very delicious and I would recommend dining in. Interior looks clean and well-maintained.
