Almost Famous Indian

Delicious food, so many flavors, spices😋The service was very attentive and so friendly, and not pushy. The vibe is nice, not the coziest but who cares when the food is so good!

They didn’t wanna accommodate. I only had money for one pancake, and they said that I had to buy before really wanted to give this a shot, but I guess it’s only for certain people.

One of the best meals I’ve had recently in LA. Everything ordered was prepared excellently and the service was friendly and on point. The lamb biryani was a standout for our party. The only bit of criticism is that the dining room is obnoxiously loud and it was difficult to have a conversation. The acoustics are terrible.

This is a restaurant definitely worth trying.

We dined at Almost Famous in Culver City tonight with a group of seven and had such a wonderful experience. The candlelit dining room is warm and inviting, and the service was unbelievably kind and attentive from start to finish.

We ordered most of the vegetarian menu and loved everything. Standouts were the brown butter paratha and the cauliflower appetizer, both truly delightful. The house black daal and butter paneer were rich, comforting, and beautifully balanced. Even the chai impressed, with a noticeable fennel note that made it feel like the perfect digestive at the end of the meal.

We left completely stuffed, and the total came to about $40 per person including a 22% gratuity, which felt like great value. This is exactly the kind of thoughtful, locally owned restaurant I am happy to support and will absolutely return to.

The crab bhuna a with a semi-sweet banana bun stole the show, really soft, balanced, unforgettable. The chorizo plate was small but mighty, and the chicken curry from large plate was so well cooked and perfect on flavor (creamy and not spicy). Dessert was outrageously rich and indulgent (an easy 10/10).

We visited with friends both for dinner and breakfast, and every time it was a great experience. Breakfast was a highlight the Blueberry Pancakes are absolutely delicious, perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The chai latte is on another level, honestly incredible. For dinner, we tried the Saag Paneer, Fried Cauliflower and Beef Short Ribs everything was rich, flavorful. The service deserves a special mention classy, attentive, and warm. Our server, Misha was very charismatic, friendly, and made the whole even better. We’ll definitely be coming back and recommending this place to friends. A must-visit spot in LA😍

A must try if you like a well-rounded meal and amazing service! Sweet potato mint chutney and braised short rib are musts.

While the restaurant is relatively new to the neighborhood, I feel like this is going to be the next up and coming place to eat so make your reservation before it blows it.

Food was good, they could really expand the indian food.section. Vada pay was pretty good. A little overpriced, but all in all pretty good for brunch.
