Arth Bar & Kitchen - Indian Restaurant in Culver City

We had a wonderful dinner at Arth. The food was delicious, so fresh and flavorful! The service was friendly and attentive. We ordered several dishes for our party of five along with cocktails and beer. Everyone enjoyed the meal. We would definitely recommend it and plan on visiting again.

Great food and very nice outdoor patio! We went in the afternoon around 3 pm and they only served starters. We had the sexy curry fries, pav bhai and tikka tacos! All three were very tasty, especially the pav bhaji! Highly recommend trying this place.

And definitely try the Jal Jeera Sunrise cocktail🔥

PS: they have 50% off on starters during the afternoon.

Excellent Indian restaurant with delicious, atypical dishes and a talented bar. The naan is thin and buttery, the meat dishes rich and ample. Air-conditioning inside can be a little chilly so dress accordingly.

One of the better Indian and Indian fusions places to eat (coming from an Indian cook). Their drinks and appetizers are well curated… will satisfy your Indian palate but keep you in familiar western concepts.

Worth a 40 min drive, reasonable price, and location is premium—smack in the middle of Culver City’s beautiful and bustling European vibe city center! Perfect if you’re looking to hangout with some friends or take your family.

Mediocre food that’s expensive for the portion size. The chicken tikka masala doesn’t have enough chicken, the kebabs didn’t have enough flavor. Atmosphere is nice.

Look, the service was great... genuinely friendly and attentive.. but the food felt like Indian cuisine that took a gap year and came back afraid of spice. The flavors were mild, the portions modest, and the prices ambitious. It’s fine if you’re easing into Indian food, but if you’ve actually had the real thing, this will feel like the PG version.

Great dinner with the family. Go to Indian food on the west side made by actual Indian Chefs. Will be back again. Service & Atmosphere is great but the food is what brings is back again.

We ordered from here for the first time and unfortunately had a disappointing experience. Our order was missing the mango lassi, and when we called to resolve it, we were left on hold for over 10 minutes before eventually hanging up, with no follow-up from the restaurant. The food itself was just okay, and the portion sizes did not feel worth the price.

We had the chili and Seabass and butter chicken also the samosas and garlic naan. The service was very good. The food was so colorful and the meat was very moist. The chili and Seabass absolutely melted in your mouth. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Dinner at ARTH Bar & Kitchen was an absolute standout. From the moment we walked in, the space felt warm and stylish—modern but inviting, with just the right energy for a night out. The staff struck that perfect balance of attentive and relaxed, making us feel taken care of without ever being rushed.

The food itself was unforgettable. The Classic Samosas were perfection: crisp on the outside, filled with just the right amount of spice inside. And the Sexy Fries? Honestly addictive—comfort food with a creative, elevated twist.

What impressed me most was the balance—every dish felt thoughtful, beautifully presented, and deeply flavorful without being overdone. It’s the kind of place where you want to linger, share plates, and savor every bite. In a city full of great restaurants, ARTH really sets itself apart as a dinner spot that’s soulful, stylish, and unforgettable. GO! And then go again!!!

One of the best modern Indian spots I’ve tried in LA. Hands down.

After frequenting this restaurant a number of times, I feel it’d be good to give a review based off a couple categories important to consider when you’re looking for that next new spot.

Ambience: Super sleek and stylish interior with warm Indian touches. There’s an open kitchen, comfy seating, and two patios. It’s upscale but still casual enough for a chill night out or date night. Music is loud enough to fill the room—conversations indoors will be at a normal talking level or slightly louder depending on how busy it is.

Food & Drinks: The menu is creative and everything we tried was packed with flavor. You can never go wrong with their Chicken Tikka or Paneer Masala. My favorites here are the sexy fries and the mango lasso—I have to order these every time.

Service: Staff was friendly, helpful, and made us feel welcome the whole time. I’ve had multiple chances to speak with the owner of Arth, Mihir. His kindness and attentiveness to customers at Arth make it much easier for me to frequent and return to this place for lunches, dinners, or special occasions.

Value: Prices are super fair for the quality—most mains under $30. Great happy hour deals too (half-off small plates and drink discounts). Parking was not an issue and easy to find. There’s a parking garage extremely close to the venue that can be used and usually has many open spots.

Definitely a go-to spot if you’re in Culver City and want Indian food with a modern twist.

I came with my wife. We weren’t sure of the restaurant. But when we came, we were completely sold. The owner went above and beyond to accommodate our requests. We were blown away with the quality of food on the price point.
