“Came here for dinner and left feeling like I'd just eaten at home. The Aloo Tikki was crispy and perfectly spiced, the Chana Chalupa was a fun twist, and the Noormahal Lasagna was something I haven't seen anywhere else. The Veggie Fun came out at exactly the spice level I asked for, and they were happy to swap in garlic naan. Everything was well cooked and the flavors felt genuinely authentic, which is hard to find in LA.
The service really stood out too. The staff was warm, attentive and super sweet the whole night. You can tell they care about their guests. Highly recommend Roots Indian Bistro, and I'll definitely be back.“

“Loosened it up and pulled it closer to how you actually wrote it:

---

Was in Hollywood for a conference with a few colleagues and we were all craving Indian food. A colleague's friend told us, go to Badmaash, you will not regret it. The name got me curious. Badmaash is Hindi for naughty, so we had to try it.

Even the Uber ride was fun. The driver, a Syrian immigrant who runs his own VIP car service, was a lively, chatty guy and somewhere along the way asked me for a garam masala recipe. I gave it to him and he was super thankful. Giving out garam masala recipes on the way to an Indian restaurant, the cephalic phase of digestion was already in full swing.

Walked in and the first thing I saw was Sharifon ki Nagri written on the wall in Hindi, which means City of Angels. Naughty in the city of angels. I couldn't stop smiling.

We ordered papdi chaat, onion pakodas, cutting chai, saag aloo, aloo gobi, dal tadka, chicken wings, chicken biryani and kulfi. I stuck to the vegetarian stuff. The chaat was average but the pakodas were crispy and done right, like the ones from a shop in north India where the guy does nothing else. The aloo gobi hit me the most. Exactly how my mom makes it in a typical Punjabi household, jeera tadka, no tomato, nothing complicated. Just simple. Dal tadka was the same, simple and good. Saag aloo was low on oil and very lightly flavored, done just right.

I don't know the chef and didn't get to meet him or her, but I want to say it, you are a master of your craft. Running a modern, smartly designed place and still keeping the food this simple is not easy. I have no idea where the name comes from, but my guess is someone who loved the owner called them badmaash. The food tells that story. If you are in the area this is a must, even for an everyday meal.“

“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.“

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

“Best Indian food restaurant in the Valley!“

“Too too good Can’t express Mouth still flavoring“

“I found this place just walking by, my favorite way to find a place to eat when I am alone. It is a fast service and very tasty spot. Basic accommodations for seating. The food is great and that is why I write this positive review. Give it a try. You won't be disappointed.“

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

“Fue mi primera vez y me gustó la atención al cliente es increíble muy amigables y el lugar es muy pasivo música de la India relajante y en tendencia y sobre todo la comida deliciosa recomiendo este lugar y muy limpio regresaré por seguro 👍🏼🥰🇮🇳😋“

“Service was spectacular. Each staff member was friendly and attentive without being pushy or constantly checking on us. It felt like they weren't just trying to bring us the food we ordered, but they genuinely wanted us to have a good time and enjoy the whole experience also.“

“Awesome atmosphere, service & food. The staff is excellent and you are given plenty of time to relax.“

“Delicious food and friendly service! Chicken tikka masala is really good.“

“Best Indian food 🥘 in L.A taste like made in home !!“

“I LOVE this place. The food the atmosphere, both amazing. Of the small plates please try the sweet potato chaat and the cauliflower dish. Of the large plates, I’ve tried 3-4 and all were really good. Great for dates, casual hangouts, and to get a bit drunk with delicious bites.“

“Was delicious and many traditional Indian dishes to choose from. Great service and we were even told about other dishes we might enjoy. Love it!!!!“

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

“Wow! This is such an amazing and unique concept! I love the frankies selection from the menu. I tried Chicken Tikka Masala Frankie and Crispy Frisch Frankie and I’m satisfied! The frankies are made from naan which was freshly baked and the fish and chicken were nicely cooked and overall it was amazing! Reasonable pricing for the size of the food. Amazing service from the business and highly recommended to try if your looking for something new!“

“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.“

“I’m a total snob so it’s hard to impress me. I’m such a jerk. Anyway, this place is awesome. I had the Masala Dosa (spicy) and the vegetable korma. The food was so good - my brain is spinning.

Friendly family, too.

What a gem of a place right in Studio City.“

“I recently dined at Cardamom Indian Cuisine, and it was fantastic! The ambiance was warm and inviting. I started with crispy samosas, followed by the rich chicken tikka masala, paired perfectly with freshly baked naan. The service was attentive and friendly. For dessert, the mango lassi and gulab jamun were delightful. Overall, Cardamom offers a wonderful dining experience with delicious food. Highly recommend!“

“Wow I am officially in love with this place the food is so delicious amazing taste it definitely taste of love I love the chicken masala I can eat this all day the rice 🍚 is so delicious 🤤 people here are so nice and the hospitality just feels like home best recommended 100/100 best of the best“

“The moment we walked in, we felt so welcome. The restaurant is decorated very elegantly but still inviting. Our server was fabulous. Made several recommendations and was very knowledgeable about the food. We came for the dine LA menu, but we will definitely be back because the food was the star of the show. Can't wait to return.“

“Delicious! Great Indian food and great tikka masala burrito!“

“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 place to eat on the westside.“

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

“Loved the food, came here with my friends for his birthday, and this was are first time here, not knowing what to really expect. When you first walk in you get hit with many amazing smells, making you excited to try the food. It took about 20 minutes to get our food and it did not disappoint, the food was delicious and bursting with flavor and would strongly recommend lotus Indian cafe.“

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

“This the my go to Indian. Chef used to be at another spot and spun out on his own. Flavor is out of this world, can hit right spice/heat level, lots of vegetarian options alongside good servings. Garlic butter naan is woah. Price point went up but is honestly still worth it“

“We came here for dine-in and absolutely loved the experience. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was lovely.
A big thank you to Tony for exceptional service. He was polite, quick, and always had a warm and welcoming smile. He made our visit even more enjoyable. Truly appreciated.

Thank you for your service. Will be back again.

“Best Indian food in the valley, owner and his family are awesome. I remember when they first opened up his little kids were chilling in the walk in pantry. They give tons of good and the combo plates are crazy value and all taste amazing. The mango lassi is AMAZING. Love the chicken biryani sometimes I bite into a piece of star anise or cumin seed but the flavor is just so good. Please check this place out it will always be a great spot in the valley 👌“

“If you're a fan of flavorful, authentic biryani and crave a dining experience that perfectly blends tradition with modern flair,must-visit.“

“Had a really enjoyable meal here. The biryani was delicious and easily one of the best parts of our visit. Everything we ordered was tasty and came together nicely. The service was great as well, with the staff being friendly and attentive during our meal. Overall, we had a very positive experience and left feeling completely satisfied. It’s always nice to find a restaurant that gets both the food and service right. I’ll definitely be coming back again soon.“

“chicken biriyani is so flavorful. tandoori chicken and naan combo tastes so good. Chat with owner for about 25 min and they have been in business at this location for over 30 years. if they're not good, they won't last this long.“

“Strange hours and even stranger location! However, it's well worth it. The food swept me off my feet. The chicken was juicy and the portions for the price could not be beat!

They do not take card so bring cash with you.“

“It's my 1st time @ an Indian restaurant like this 1. The service is great and friendly. Also, the food is so delicious. Especially the Alu Samosa and the Mango Lassi because they're officially my favorite stuff.“

“Genuine person. Very good and healthy food. He should charge more for the quality and quantity. But I understand he is also doing it as a service. Definitely recommended to anyone in Westwood. Please go show your support especially in down times of the year like summer when there are fewer students on campus.“
