50 Best Indian Restaurants near Marina Del Rey

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

“Very good food and service“

“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. 💛“

“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.“

“Amazing Indian cuisine!!!!“

“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 ❤️“

“BADMAASH never disappoints. Easily one of our go-to spots for modern Indian food in LA. Everything was amazing as always. The chaat was super refreshing, the chicken tikka was oo lala level yummy, and the cheese naan with the curry was absolutely outstanding. Perfect mix of bold flavors, comfort food, and a cool vibe. Always looking forward to coming back.“

“The food at Star of India is excellent. They have a wide variety of vegetarian, vegan, and standard items, all worth trying. The service is prompt and the staff are friendly and helpful.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Highly recommend the Masala Paneer!!! The rich buttery sauce is by far the most flavorful I have ever had! 👍👍👍👍👍“

“I dined in around 6pm on a Saturday and it was perfect. It’s a small place with a relaxed vibe. The place was empty when I arrived but quickly filled up while I ate my food. I got the garlic naan, the sag paneer, butter chicken and rice. Everything was so delicious and flavorful. The butter chicken was my favorite - incredible spices and I could tell it was cooked on the grill (my favorite cook). The service was fantastic - both servers were so nice and the owner even came to greet us and make sure everything was ok. I would absolutely come back and recommend to a friend.“

“We had a fantastic birthday dinner here. Kind of pricey, but that's expected with elevated Indian food. We ordered the bacon & date Kulcha as well as the spinach & Mozzarella to start. Bacon and date was by far the better or the two. Then we shared the scallops (a hit!) and sweet potato Chaat (delish). Out of our 3 mains we enjoyed the chicken Korma best then the short ribs and aloo Gobi were tied. Interestingly they used broccoli instead of cauliflower for the Gobi and the potatoes had amazing flavor. Our only complaint was the noise level got to be extremely loud and it wasn't even a full house. Be prepared. We would definitely go again though.“

“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.“

“Great food! The place is really cute.“

“yes great service. their food is always cooked at time of ordering. everything is fresh!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Hollywood Vegan has redefined what it means to enjoy plant-based and organic food. Every product is top-notch!“

“The food was amazing! Indian food burrito!“

“Absolutely delicious Indian cuisine. I dined in with the lamb tandoori tikkha with saag paneer, basmati rice, garlic naan, and a mango lassi. Everything was fresh and on point. The waitress was friendly and the ambience was clean with relaxing jazz piano playing. Highly recommended!“

“Really yummy food 🥘 love it 😊 and grate Castmer service 👍“

“one place uou can't ho wrong. Finally Indian fine cuisine at it's BEST. I highly recommend.“

“A Must-visit!! Highly recommended for some of the highest quality food and service!“

“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 👍“

“Best place to eat on the westside.“

“Best curry I have had in LA in 30 years Chef is English“

“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.“

“Excellent food!!“

“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.“

“Best place ever“

“Fantastic Lunch Buffet. Offered Vegan dishes too. Clean and organized. Wonderful Staff. Will be going back.“

“Perfect Indian quality food“

“One of the best gujju food in the town. Love their aloopoori and Vadapav. Must try.“

“Food was delicious and great service. it was my husband's first time having Indian food and he loved it as well.“

“We were a group of 2, ordered lamb and chicken biryani. Both were very delicious (a bit too spicy though we requested mild). Rice needed to be a bit drier than what was served, were told that it is how it's made in Northern India, it was so good, but wanted it to be drier :)“

“This place is amazing !!! The food is great and the people are even greater.“

“good food good price easy to order. service little slow but good workers.“

“nice people, nice food, give us good mango dessert too, not to mention fast service❤“

“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.“
