The butter chicken and the garlic naan were very yummy. I recommend.
We visited for Sunday lunch. We had the chicken momos and the veg thali with okra and malai kofta. Everything we ordered was great. The food was flavorful without being too greasy or salty. The server was helpful. He brought us a high chair for our baby and water for the dog.
Great food. Great service.

Masala Craft Indian Cuisine offers well-packaged carry-out orders, featuring delicious tikka and garlic naan. The indoor setting is clean and surprisingly well-maintained, with attention to detail that includes spotless tables and glasses. While the space lacks music and proper ventilation, it provides a limited patio seating option. Many dishes may have untraditional flavors, such as the red sauce in the lamb curry. The dal makhani remains flavorful but mildly spicy, while the butter chicken is creamy and rich. The restaurant also serves tasty samosas with sweet tamarind and spicy mint sauce.
Recent reviews highlight a pleasant environment and a variety of vegan options on the menu. Guests have enjoyed the veggie pakoras, channa masala, and vegan aloo paratha, noting that the pakoras are large and filled with thick cuts of veggies. The Baingan Bharta has been praised as the best some have ever tasted. The warm paratha is perfect for scooping up curry. Friendly service, quick food delivery, and generous portions make it a great spot for a family lunch or a flavorful, vegan Indian meal. The restaurant is also recognized for its unique dishes, such as the chicken chat, tomato soup, lamb vindaloo, and fried chicken with mushrooms. Overall, it is a recommended dining experience, with many stating that the food here is by far the best around Big Bear Lake.
