Great authentic Indian food. Loved their masala dosa! And tandoori chicken is a must try. Loved the food! We will definitely come back here. Customer service was excellent. They are very nice and friendly. The portion of the food is also perfect for the price. 10/10 will recommend…

I visit this restaurant once every 4-5 months. I usually dine in but today I choose take out as it was during work. Good food from the south of India. Vegetarian options as well as a ton of meat options. Food is never spicy, but it is flavourful. In general, the traditional South Indian dishes like dosa and idli don’t carry out very well but this restaurant has a ton of other dishes that carry out well. They also have a buffet which is quite popular. I went today at 1:30 pm and the place was full!

Went on Thursday for dosa night buffet. Menu had plenty of items almost everything from a southern Indian breakfast cuisine but the taste could be better. Chutneys were below par. Ambience was average. Service was good. They have the potential to become a popular restaurant given that there are not many Indian restaurants in the area but only if they improve the quality.

Great food (Tandoori Pomfret). Service, although polite, could be better as we had to keep prompting for cutlery.

I used to goto this restaurant but what I ate there today was the most pathetic form of food and cooking I ever had in LA. Firstly the Vepudu Chicken had no spice no salt and it looked stale. The Uttappam was half cooked and Idlis were stale and even the Chettinad chicken felt totally tasteless. The Mango lassi was bitter like it was a week old and after complaining they have another one. The rice which came with Chicken Chettinad was clearly looking stale and yellowish & half cooked dry and wasn’t able to chew or swallow it. And yes the entire bill was 63$ ! Way too overpriced. They have changed the menu and the restaurant is all downhill now. I will never ever go there again. Advice to management : focus on quality as it takes hundred efforts to build quality and 1 to ruin it. Wish the restaurant people all well and hope they improvise going ahead.

On our way to LAX for our return flight ✈️ to India we stopped here to have lunch. It’s inside Lawndale plaza so adequate parking is available. The menu had variety of both north and south Indian dishes. There is a buffet also but we ordered from the menu. We had Masala Dosa, Onion Uttappa in south Indian dishes and Palak paneer and Naan in North Indian dishes. Afterwards we had sweet Lassi. All of them had excellent taste. If you are on your way to LA from Long Beach do stop here for a sumptuous Indian meal…..
