“I just love this place. I came into town after 4 years and this was in my top 5 places I wanted to stop. Got the chicken tikki masala and it’s as delicious as it’s ever been.“

“I had a wonderful experience at Roots Indian Bistro. I reached quite late, even after closing hours, but the staff still welcomed and accommodated me so warmly without making me feel rushed at all.
The food was excellent, and to top it off, they even served complimentary kheer, which was such a thoughtful gesture. What stood out the most to me, though, was the hospitality. The staff was genuinely kind and attentive, and one of the owners personally came over to check if everything was good and whether I was enjoying the meal.
Good food is memorable, but genuine hospitality is what truly makes a place special — and Roots absolutely excelled at that. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for not just great Indian food, but also an incredibly warm dining experience.“

“Oh my goodness. Just finished eating and ran here to write a review. I'm not exaggerating when I say this is the most delicious, fresh, flavorful Indian food I've ever had, and I used to live in Jersey City. I went yesterday with friends to try the chicken tikka masala burrito and it was unexpectedly awesome. The owner who served us brought us complimentary mulligatawny soup which was extremely comforting and he was so attentive and friendly. We also got the masala fries with paneer and they were soooo good.
I had such a great experience that I came back today to try some non-fusion food for takeout. I got what I usually get for Indian takeout- chicken tikka masala, saag paneer, garlic naan, and vegetable samosas. I was also excited to see they have gobi manchurian which is one of my favorites but surprisingly hard to find a good one, so I tried that too.
Wowwowow! Every single dish was exceptional. Everything seasoned perfectly, with so much depth of flavor in each dish. Samosas were flaky and crispy, and the chutneys were perfect. Masala was sweet and a little spicy, and the paneer was so fresh. The gobi manchurian was also perfection. I almost never want to go to another Indian place again, because I've seemingly found the best. Can't wait to come back again and try some different dishes! Can not recommend this place enough! Sorry, forgot to take pictures of my dinner I was too excited to eat it.
Also! Excellent value! The prices are very modest and the portion sizes are great. I have enough for 2 dinners for my fiancé and I, coming out to $15 per meal which is incredible considering the variety and quality of food ❤️“

“Owners, Staff and overall teamwork has a sync. It won’t go wrong. Also if you know indian movies, their cocktail menu is worth exploring whether you drink or not!! They should try for Michelin Star / Michelin recommended restaurants.
Exceptional service.“

“Tried the rack of lamb goat and it was absolutely amazing. The meat was perfectly cooked with rich flavors in every bite. The seasoning and smoky grilled taste made it even better. One of the best dishes I’ve had recently, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who loves flavorful meat dishes.“

“A group of 10 coworkers and I went here after work and it was amazing!!! I will definitely be coming here again with friends or for takeout. There are so many options at an affordable price. I got the two item combo with garlic naan, and I had plenty of food to take home afterwards. Service was awesome, the owners are super friendly, and food came out fast.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
If you're looking for the **best Indian restaurant in Downtown Los Angeles**, I highly recommend **Riwaaz Indian Cuisine & Banquet**. The food here is absolutely authentic and full of flavor—easily one of the top spots for Indian food in LA.
We ordered the **chicken tikka masala, biryani, Samosa Chaat, garlic naan, mutton curry and memna lamb curry** and every dish was rich, aromatic, and perfectly spiced. The **garlic naan** was fresh and soft, and paired perfectly with the creamy curry sauces. You can really taste the traditional Indian spices in every bite.
They also have great **vegetarian options** like paneer tikka and dal makhani, plus a variety of **vegan-friendly dishes**, which makes it a great place for everyone. Portions are generous, and the quality of the ingredients really stands out.
The ambiance is modern yet welcoming, and the service was friendly and attentive. Whether you're dining in or trying their **weekend Indian buffet**, this place offers one of the best Indian dining experiences in downtown Los Angeles.
If you're craving **authentic Indian cuisine, flavorful curry, tandoori dishes, or the best biryani in Downtown LA**, this is definitely the place to go. Highly recommend!“

“Went with a large group.
Flavors are good but it's a bit Americanized. We did enjoy the fusion poutine though. I was shocked that the paneer curry hardly had any paneer. Unfortunately we ordered 3 of those for the table so I had to tough through quite a bit of bell pepper 🥴
Waiter was nice but he kept forgetting to bring some of our stuff, but we got a free extra mango lassi out of it due to the confusion lol
Atmosphere - very chill place and food location
Overall I had a good time and would come here again if I'm in the area. It's a good starting point before some WeHo thrifting“

“Wow! This is such an amazing and unique concept! I love the frankies selection from the menu. I tried Chicken Tikka Masala Frankie and Crispy Frisch Frankie and I’m satisfied! The frankies are made from naan which was freshly baked and the fish and chicken were nicely cooked and overall it was amazing! Reasonable pricing for the size of the food. Amazing service from the business and highly recommended to try if your looking for something new!“

“Just stopped by for my lunch break for the first time, the food is already prepped and warm similar to a Chinese food place so if you’re in a hurry this spot is amazing. They are also very generous with their portions and their prices are great. The lady who made my order was also very kind. Everyone seems to make their naan differently but this one was slightly greasy but delicious nonetheless including the chicken . Price for 2 portions, rice, and naan came out to 15 without the tip. Definitely recommend 👍“

“I recently dined at Cardamom Indian Cuisine, and it was fantastic! The ambiance was warm and inviting. I started with crispy samosas, followed by the rich chicken tikka masala, paired perfectly with freshly baked naan. The service was attentive and friendly. For dessert, the mango lassi and gulab jamun were delightful. Overall, Cardamom offers a wonderful dining experience with delicious food. Highly recommend!“

“I can confirm. This is delicious Indian food.
Priced affordably. Do remember that they only accept venmo or cash.
The location is a bit strange in an old hotel, but there are signs to get you there no-issue.
All walls around you in the restaurant have expertly painted murals.“
“Govinda, the owner of this food truck, is a true hero. He runs this truck as a personal mission to do his part in battling food insecurity. His plates are priced at $5 (but really, this is a suggested donation and he never turns you away if you're in need).
Everything in the truck is vegan, partly due to his religious beliefs (Hare Krishna) and partly to accommodate every srudents' dietary preferences.
Each plate is packed with flavor, nutrition, and love. He runs a set menu for each day of the week. It always comes with a glass of lemonade and chips. Don't worry about the portion sizes. You're sure to leave satisfied.
But most importantly, the owner is a genuinely good person. He always stands outside his food truck, personally greeting customers and taking their orders. He takes great pride in his work and is always ecstatic to share updates about how his business is doing and how much he is helping his community. I've spoken to him many times and he understands the food insecurity crisis that students face, hence the pricing and proximity to UCLA. In order to break even, he must sell 70 plates daily, so please frequent this place as much as you can.“

“Shout-out to Taj Mahal of India for staying consistently excellent.
My first time coming here was toward the end of the pandemic, and it immediately left an impression. I hadn’t been back in a couple of years, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Walking in and being greeted by the same familiar faces honestly made my day. That kind of continuity matters.
This place feels truly family-run in the best way. You can tell the team works well together, and that care translates directly to the food. Every single time, it exceeds expectations.
The butter chicken, curry vindaloo, tikka masala, garlic naan. No notes. And trust me when I say this: you must order extra of everything. Non-negotiable.
Grateful this spot continues to do what it does so well. Still a favorite, still worth the return.“
