47 Best Indian Restaurants near Manhattan Beach

“Great Indian food, and I love the weekly buffet. Sundays, it comes with champagne, if you ask for it. Wide variety of choices. Consistently tasty. Staff is friendly and attentive. Very clean, and comfortable.“

“Absolutely in love with this place! 🍽️✨ The food is a beautiful symphony of flavors, and the atmosphere is just so warm and welcoming. The perfect spot for a cozy meal with friends or a special dinner. Every bite was a little piece of happiness. 💛“

“Excellent food and fantastic service😊“

“Amazing Authentic South Indian food. Sambar is delicious and well spiced.
We also tried Achari paneer Tikka. Moist and nicely grilled. It came with Salad too.

Also tried Mysore Masala Dosa which was so very nicely cooked. Crisp on outside and soft on the inside. My favorite place to eat Food in LA.“

“We just came to the area after decades in the Bay Area (where Indian food is plentiful). The food we had tonight was great! The flavors were nuanced (unlike a lot of one-note places we'd left behind). We'll definitely be returning!“

“Authentic halal curries and fusion Indian topping pizzas. Small place big flavors.
Pizza crust is perfect chewy and good amount of chicken tikka on the pizza.
Also tried the Alu samosa, chicken curry, lamb biryani and garlic naan. Everyone in the group loved it. To be honest, I think this is the best Indian food spot in Torrance or Redondo Beach area. The manager is Nitin from India’s tandoori in Manhattan Beach and now he moved into this Curry and Pizza restaurant. He does excellent customer service and he is very friendly and professional. We know him for years and so happy he moved here.
Will be back soon to try other items on the menu.“

“I love this place. Service and food are great. Ravi used to live in England so I think that makes his food the closest to "back home" for me. Chicken Tikka Masala is so creamy.“

“Came here with a group of friends after someone recommended it, and honestly, it’s one of those places you might overlook at first. From the outside, it’s pretty low-key and not the most eye-catching, but once you walk in, the whole vibe changes. The staff welcomes you right away, and you can’t miss the wall full of awards—it definitely says something. The place itself is casual and not fancy, but the food and service really stand out. Everyone on the team checked in on us without being overbearing, and you can tell they work well together. We ordered a bunch of dishes to share and everything was full of flavor. Definitely recommend getting a mango lassi to balance out the spice—it came in clutch.“

“I had the chicken burger for lunch and really enjoyed it. The chicken was juicy and perfectly crispy, and the fries were nicely seasoned and delicious. I also noticed they have a curry buffet that looked amazing. I believe it’s around $14.99, so I’m definitely planning to try that next time.“

“Good food overall. Some of the best dishes I tried were the Vijayawada chicken biryani and the kothu parotta.

The quantity is generous, and the taste is definitely worth it.

Service was great, and the atmosphere was nice too. A good place for dinner.“

“Excellent food and service“

“I came across this restaurant on Instagram and noticed they offered an extensive vegan menu alongside their standard options, so I knew I had to check it out.

Indian food has always been one of my favorites, and I only recently learned that most naan isn’t vegan. So, I was genuinely excited to see vegan naan on the menu—it was definitely a highlight for me.

The food was excellent. I started with the samosas and was pleasantly surprised to find they weren’t greasy—something I’ve experienced at other restaurants. They were light, flavorful, and a great way to kick off the meal.

For the main course, I ordered the vegan garlic naan along with the Vege & Beyond Meat Kheema Parota. Both dishes were excellent—the naan was soft, flavorful, and perfectly complemented the meal, while the kheema parota was rich, and spicy.

For dessert, I ordered the vegan banana split since they had run out of the vegan brownie à la mode. As with everything else, the banana split was absolutely delicious—a perfect, satisfying way to end the meal.

I’m sure their non-vegan fare is just as delicious as my meal was, and it really seems like there’s something for everyone at this new-to-me restaurant find.“

“The best Indian food outside of Uk and India !“

“Are here last night & had takeout 2 weeks ago 😃delicious both times ! Will be back when in Santa Monica as next 👍“

“we waited at least 30 mins after we sat down and they didn't even take our order. totally disorganized. we love Indian food and thought we would give this a go having tried Addis many times which is fantastic. 2 other groups of people walked out before we did who were also unable to place their orders. never again. 0/10.“

“My first time eating here and I LOVED IT!!!! So amazingly fresh with new dishes I had never tried. the Chapai are #AMAZING!!!“

“We had the pleasure to go to Cloud Naan Urban BBQ . We received the excellent service..By far it was the best BBQ, we have had. We highly recommend Cloud Naan for excellent customer service..“

“Going there again for sure, the samosa definitely sparked my interest in trying vegan Indian food. It's a buffet type restaurant with approximately 10 tables. It looks as though most people there are of all nationalities. It's very eclectic and a very nice vibe. The prices is reasonable as well“

“The person working the till last night (Sunday) around 8:30 or so was on her AirPods talking to someone else (definitely appeared to be a personal call), which made it hard for her to hear me and hard for me to hear her. I definitely ordered naan more than once, did not get it, may have paid for it, at that point I didn’t want to ask because I knew it would be pointless and I wanted to end the interaction. I’m not sure if she answered my questions or if she was talking to the other person on the phone and either way she was speaking so incredibly quiet I was not be able to hear what she was saying either way. Honestly idc if someone is chatting to others during work hours, in fact in some ways I support it and don’t think it is an issue at all, but maybe stop for 90 seconds when a customer is there. It was just an incredibly weird experience, and it was my first time there, so a little more help would have been nice. And, again, some naan. Lol. Maybe they didn’t have it? I don’t know because I couldn’t hear a word she was saying, and it definitely felt like I was bothering her when I asked her questions or to repeat herself so I just gave up because it was so incredibly uncomfortable. She was very unwelcoming, and not even neutral, and it genuinely takes a lot for me to say that because I don’t think service people owe me cheerfulness, particularly not at the wage they’re usually paid. But this was truly exceptional, and if this was not her intent or not indicative of what she was experiencing then she needs this feedback.

Can’t review the naan, didn’t receive it lol. I didn’t care for the jackfruit but did not hate it (not to my taste, though I do like jackfruit), I liked the pakora curry, I LOVED the fake chicken dish the sauce is delicious and so rich. Definitely not enough rice for the dishes, but thankfully I was able to make some naan at home. Samosa was good and so were the pani puri though the tamarind water was a bit bland, maybe it was the savory type? I love pani puri so honestly I’m just happy to have them, but I will say the shells were a bit stale, maybe because I came late in the evening, and partly because I’ve had so many of the pani puri from Puja’s Palate at the motor Ave farmers market and those are 🤤🤤🤤.

I’ll definitely come back here, the prices are reasonable, it’s nearby, etc. but I honestly might leave to go elsewhere if I saw that person on their AirPods at the till again because it was that awkward and also I would like to get my correct order.

(Ps, make sure you’re looking at the menu for this location as the one online is for a different one, and I went there initially for pav bhaji, and wasn’t able to get it. :( I was pretty bummed lol.)“

“Je recommande ce restaurant. Repas délicieux, prise de commande rapide, service à table rapide. Personnel très accueillant. Thank you for your hospitality“

“Love this place! This is a family business, and they are very kind and supportive, especially if it is your first time cooking Indian food. The prices are affordable, and they have a wide collection of ingredients. They even explained to me how to make their family recipe for saag paneer. I really appreciate their support and guidance. I used to go to Culver City for Indian ingredients, but this place in Santa Monica has better prices and is closer to where I live. I also want to give a special shout-out to Sunny for great customer service!“

“Order delivery all the time never been until tonight. All I can say is wow, clean, amazing staff and fresh hot food. Told my husband no more delivery need to get in car and go there.“

“Very good food and service“

“This is one of my favorite restaurants in the LA area. The food is delicious! Restaurant is always clean and friendly staff really makes it enjoyable to eat there. I highly recommend trying it if not this location there is also a Santa Monica location. 👍“

“Amazing halal market! Al Amin has everything you need—from fresh halal meat to great quality groceries and international items. The customer service is excellent and you can tell they really care about cleanliness and quality. I’ve been shopping here for a long time and they never disappoint. Definitely my go-to halal store.“

“When go to Famous Tandoori please try their Philly Cheese Sandwich, Zinger Burger with Fries, Chicken Tikka Roll, Chapli Kabob, Shami Kabob, Lamb Biryani on Saturday, Chicken 65, Chicken Wings, Halwa Puri on Sunday, their Beef and Chicken Samosa's are the Best and Very Tasty“

“The food and the atmosphere were great! We will definitely be back!“

“Food was tasty. Had bisibele bhat and curd rice. Mango pickle given with curd rice was awful in color and smell. Seemed very very old. Usually lime pickle is served with curd rice. Even if mango pickle given, it is red and fresh with nice chili oil.“

“Had a great Lunch here couple of days back and will recommend for sure. My wife commented after eating here as “Home food” 👍👍“
