40 Best Indian Restaurants near Tarzana

“I had such a wonderful meal here. Everything was delicious and the presentation was excellent.

The tandoori chicken was cooked perfectly and arrived on a sizzling hot platter. I also really loved the naan, which was nicely charred and seasoned with fresh herbs. It was the perfect comfort food for a nice dinner out.

The whole experience was fantastic from start to finish. I will definitely be back soon to enjoy this food again.“

“Great place for authentic Indian Food.“

“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.“

“Best Indian food in la“

“We catered for 20 people. Vijaywada Panner Biryani was amazing. It is a true taste like home. Will go again and order again.

Mukesh is the person who can help you with anything. He has a lot of experience in this, if you ask him, he will give great suggestions/options.“

“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.“

“I have been a long time customer of Chutney’s on Pico and Barrington in West La. The food is wonderful and the owner and staff are very pleasant to interact with. Highly recommended when you are in the mood for excellent quality Indian food!“

“This place is a hidden gem. The food is absolutely delicious. I’m traveling here from Michigan and we have a lot of Indian food restaurants but I’ve never had food as good as this place in here for a week and I will be here everyday. I had the chicken 65 birianyi and it’s cooked to perfection the spices and flavor is heavenly and the rice and chicken is amazing came with two sauces one is a broth and the other is yogurt with vegetables and both complimented the dish when mix together perfectly. The reason I gave 4 stars is because it takes time for the food to come out that’s all the staff were nice and polite the place is clean. And not to forget the portion is very good for the price and you don’t see that anymore. All in all an amazing experience keep up the good work staff“

“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. 👍“

“If you love Indian food, this is the place to be! The flavors are rich, and every dish is cooked to perfection. The ambiance is warm, and the service is excellent. My personal favorite is their biryani—so aromatic and delicious.“

“Food is all delicious and service was very attentive. Sadly, no parking and they closed, with no notice, for a few days, in November. No holiday. Weekday/night. But, we’ll keep going, because the food is that good. Our favorite is the chicken masala.“

“We were among the first guests to arrive today. Though we were served by a single person but Tajeshree was awesome in delivering food fast, adding extra requests of dessert and tea in the end. Chicken biryani was delicious and so was lamb boti, spinach, chicken boti and naans with well cooked at the appropriate heat and spice level. I'll highly recommend this place. Ample parking and quick service. Wooden carving in the interior. One may have to wait after 1 pm since rush increase for dine-in as well as pick-ups. Thanks for an enjoyable experience.“

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

“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 :)“

“It was the first time we visited this restaurant. My family and I loved the food. We ordered Maharashtrian and south Indian food. All dishes were delicious! Especially the Kolhapuri Tambada Rassa!!! It was so authentic that it reminded us of Kolhapuri home food. Along with that, the restaurant owner gave us complimentary Zunka & Bhakri! So exquisite! She suggested us some chef's special dishes. Kanda Bhaji, Sole kadhi was unique. Highly recommended!! The person who took our order, Aashish was kind and gave us the best hospitality during our visit. People should definitely try this restaurant for authentic Maharashtrian dishes!“

“We stumbled across here trying to find a new place. The inside was really beautiful, the orange walls and lighting made it feel so luxurious. Tried the garlic naan which was fresh garlic and and soft dough. I got the coconut chicken curry medium which wasn’t too spicy, had good flavor. The rice was perfect and everything was amazing. Will definitely come back again!“

“I live in Virginia and tried to place an order with a restaurant with a similar name. Somehow wires got crossed and the order was placed with this restaurant. When the food wasn’t picked up the restaurant went out of the way to track me down and reimburse the charge. This is a restaurant worth your businesses. Good people are sometimes hard to find and should be recognized!“

“Went there on a date on Christmas and was excellent!“

“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!“

“I have been here twice and both times it was good. Tikka masala bowl was great and the gravy was perfect how its suppose to be. Indian pijja (pizza) was great too - balanced flavor, thin crust. And the guy behind the counter is very helpful and friendly too. Highly recommended“

“Always good. Took my daughter today and she loved it as well.“
