“The food was delicious! Especially the Tandoori Chicken! I also really enjoyed the Chicken Tiki Masala and the Cheese Naan.“

“I ordered Aloo Paratha to go, and while the 25‑minute wait was frustrating, the taste made up for it. Back in 2018, when I was in India, I often enjoyed parathas, but I’ve never found that same authentic flavor anywhere else—until today. For the first time, it felt like I got that taste back.“

“RT Kitchen is truly a hidden gem. Raju bhai and his team crafts the best Gujarati eats and snacks I have ever tried. I have been impressed by every item on the menu I've tried so far. I used to eat at places down the street in Artesia, but RT Kitchen is now my go-to! It is a smaller establishment with three tables for dining in and an assortment of packaged snacks behind the counter.

The Vada Pav comes on a lightly toasted pav and fried potato filling. Their Samosas (my favorite) have a very flakey crust, and a great crust to filling ratio. The Kachori was delicious too. Their green and red (sweet) sauces are perfect for dipping these!

The Fafda Jalebi and Khaman were excellent and tasty mid-afternoon snacks.

The Mini Thali or Gujarati Thali, available weekends only, makes a tasty meal whenever I'm more hungry.

The Shrikhand is a great complement to balance out the spices after a tasty meal! All other Shrikhands I try elsewhere now leave me disappointed.

The snacks behind the glass counter are unique and tasty too! My favorite is the Dhani, similar to popcorn. Great snack when watching a movie at home. The Potato Gathiya, and Sev Mamra are excellent too!“

“I'm very pleased with the food, taste and service. Definitely try the chicken Tika marsala.“

““Feels like home, easily one of the best Indian restaurants in town!”

India’s Spice Grill is a true hidden gem and one of the most authentic Indian restaurants I’ve ever been to. It’s a family-owned and operated place, and you can feel that warmth the moment you walk in.

Their Butter Chicken is hands-down the best I’ve tried, creamy, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The tawa roti took me straight back home with its soft texture and fresh-off-the-griddle aroma. Everything here tastes freshly made with love, not like the reheated food you find in many places.

What really sets this restaurant apart is Satnam Paji, who welcomes you like family and treats you like one too. He genuinely cares about every guest and makes sure you leave happy and full.

If you’re looking for authentic Indian food, generous portions, and that comforting “ghar ka khana” feel, this is the place. Highly recommend to anyone craving real Indian flavor and hospitality!“

“I recommend New flavor of India restaurant . Very friendly Very clean Large portions And most important the food is very flavorful .“

“It’s an Indian restaurant with most of the Indian staff .They know the real taste of India“

“ordered the Chicken Biryani and the Chicken Masala, and wow both were absolutely delicious! The flavors were rich, perfectly spiced, and you can really taste the freshness in every bite. The chicken was tender, juicy, and full of flavor plus it’s halal, which is a huge plus.

The portion sizes were generous, definitely great for sharing (or keeping all to yourself if you’re hungry like me). The food came out hot and fresh, and the aroma alone had me excited before I even took a bite. Oh yeah, it’s super cheap too. $10 a plate for huge portions in 2025!

If you’re looking for authentic, flavorful Indian food that hits the spot, this is the place to go. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more dishes from the menu highly recommend!“

“I come here once a month to stock up on Indian food. The frozen curries are enough for 2 or 3 meals each with rice. the samosas are great and the lentil soup or dal is great for protein! I'll also buy a masala Dosa or idli's to eat with a mango lassie before going home. It's a great deal!“

“RBanquet is a hit with clients! Great reviews all around.“

“A really good place for some great Dosa (& South Indian varieties) and tiffin options in particular when it comes to Veg restaurants in the neighborhoods of Artesia. The restaurant lives up to its reputation for the original Tirupati branch.

THE FOOD:
We got Sambar Vadai, Paneer Dosa, Batura with Chole and Batura with Paneer along with rose milk. Sambar Vadai was spicy to some extent and probably because it was hot we felt more. It’s soft and nicely made. The Paneer dosa was very good, and the paneer tasted great as well. The Batura was excellent. Not so oily and seemed like it was fried in fresh oil. The Paneer gravy was kind of decent not the best but the Chole was so good. Been here 6 years before and it still remained the same: good at quality and quantity. Rose milk was usual like any other place.

SERVICE & AMBIENCE:
The place is well lit and gives a typical Indian hotel vibe. The restaurant gives a nice feel of having a good home made food especially the spice levels are pretty normal and sits well on your tummy. The staffs and waiters are extremely friendly, fast and make things easier while ordering/ serving and they still allow you to sit and dine past the closing time (unlike SriKrishnaVilas of Cumming,GA who really need to learn from them on how to value customers). Excellent customer service.

BOTTOMLINE: A very traditional South Indian restaurant that excels when it comes to South Indian food items and tiffin, with some amazing Customer service and great ambience with good quality food and priced reasonably well for the quantity offered. Would highly recommend.

MY PICKS FOR YOU: Dosa varieties, Chole Batura, South Indian Meals“

“The best vegetarian South indian food in Artesia period. I personally love their thali's, variety of dosas and vadas. And their South indian filter coffee which is rare to get in restaurants is to die for. If you want authentic South indian food and especially if you are a vegetarian like me, you don't have to look beyond Bhimas!“

“Delicious food and good service.“

“We want to thank Hemal, Hetal, Saumil and the entire Rasraj team for being amazing caterers for our wedding day and reception! Hemal, Hetal, and Saumil worked with us months in advance to create an amazing all-day wedding menu that was unique, delicious, and incredibly creative. They walked us through numerous options and ideas during our tasting with our family and were extremely professional and on top of things on the big day.

The food was absolutely delicious! Our guests couldn't stop raving about the dishes, and we even had family from India commenting that some of the entrees were the best they had ever had. The fun presentations, like drinks and appetizers served pre-ceremony, were a big hit and added a special touch to the event.

Rasraj was fully prepared with all the equipment and supplies and arrived on time, ensuring that no one went hungry. The service was seamless, and their attention to detail was impressive. If you’re looking for amazing catering for your wedding or event, look no further than Rasraj! Thanks so much, Hemal, Hetal, Saumil and the Rasraj team!“

“Can’t believe I took so long to try out Bhooke. This place is UP THERE. Given the recent dip in quality at Rajdhani, would say it’s top two for Artesia.. (Podi Dosa and Bhooke)

Portions are HUGE. Service is GREAT (shout out to Bharat for looking after us so well). Chai is MADE RIGHT (masala and piping hot). Authenticity is 100 (food served in dishes wrapped in banana leaves, thalis.., art on the wall.. AWESOME). Taste? SO SO SOOOOOOOO GOOD

But also not for the faint hearted. The food is cooked with love and lots of ghee. Whether you’re dunking the ghee-soaked baati in earthy daal, or stuffing yourself with the crumbly, sweet churma or besan ladoos.. the Rajasthani flavors are front and center.. and the confronting quality of the taste is too upfront to dismiss

Best kachoris we’ve had stateside.. hands down (recommend the kachori chaat). Highly recommend the Maharaja thali.. get to try everything.. and comes with lassi, sweet dishes.. and three different types of bread (rumali roti/baati/other types of bread!). Beware.. portions are massive.. so expect to take food to go!

Will 10000% be back!“

“VERY HOME TOUCH SEEET AND DELICIAS CHAT. WE HAD PAN SEV PURI DABELI AND BHEL. FAMILY OWENED AND OPERATED CHAT HOUSE. VERY TESTY. DO TRY ONCE AND U WILL FAN FOR EVER. NAIK FMLY.“

“The chicken tika masala is great.“

“The place is very cozy, relaxing and the staffs are very friendly. Actually with good customer service. The foods taste good and not too spicy and also not salty. It's my first time to eat Indian dishes, and I'm not a Hindu but I could say I like Indian foods now. It's delicious and nutritious. God bless!“

“Everything is top notch including the food the staff.. everyone around is so friendly and typical North Indian food and the variety for South Indian food and Hyderabad I biryani is also so delicious..it's so difficult to resist yourself to not come here everyday..“

“Their delivery is very fast, they serve good quality food, and a nice atmosphere to eat it in.“

“The food is delicious and the service is very good! though I eat in, I always order more food to go to enjoy the next day.“

“This is a restaurant specialize in Southern Indian cuisine, which is 100% vegetarian but not vegan. Unassuming with friendly waitstaff, highly recommended. Some dishes can be quite spicy, please consult with the waiter about the degree of spiciness of a particular dish.“

“Loved this spot. My favorite Pakistani restaurant so far in Orange County! Fine dining restaurant with great ambience. Food was great. Delicious, flavorful, filling Desi food. Definitely recommend the lamb chops and Chicken Karhai.“

“RBanquet is a hit with clients! Great reviews all around.“

“I am a vegan on Covid lockdown and was craving some kofta for delivery, but all the local Indian restaurants make it with paneer. Finding this restaurant with a vegan menu that delivers was a treasure. Most Indian food is too spicy for me, but here I was able to choose the level of heat from mild, medium or spicy. Other Indian restaurants interpret “mild” as no seasoning at all but my Kofta, Desi Chole, Samosa and Baingan Bhuna were perfectly seasoned to my taste, a wonderful blend of dish individualized curry spices with just enough heat to slightly warm without harm. Also, it was not greasy at all, unlike the local places where the veggies are swimming in oil. I wish the rice dishes were made with brown basmati rice but plain brown rice can be ordered as a side, as it I didn’t have a lot of it cooked in the freezer already. The prices seem a little high for me, so I can’t afford to eat here very often, but will definitely come back as the perfect place to celebrate special occasions once I’m well.“

“RBanquet is a hit with clients! Great reviews all around.“

“the staff and food was excellent!!! loved it“

“The food was tasty but there were some disappointments- we asked very clearly for very spicy and I made it clear that my wife is from Thailand and we are both accustomed to eating extremely spicy food. The food was not very spicy at all. I was disappointed by the lack of condiments and chutneys and also disappointed they brought so much bread at once and never offered fresh, so it was no longer warm and crispy by the time we finished. These are things I would overlook at a budget restaurant but this isn’t a budget restaurant. The food was good but I don’t think we’ll be back“

“Good food. The lunch buffet selection could be better!“

“Good food and ambiance. Great place to be with family and friends“

“Testy food…very nice respectful staff..we enjoyed testy yummy food 🥘“

“it would be nice if you start sealing the bags. I purchased bunch of farsan and none of the were sealed.The new zip lock bags are poor quality. The food is amazing. It would be nice if it was less spicy. People who enjoy spice just give them chilli paste. Thank you.“

“Shepherd’s Pie & fish & chips are amazing! The drink & service was awesome! I can’t wait to go back!“

“Sambar and chutneys were excellent. I was craving something spicy and andra kara masala dosa hit the spot very well. I also liked how it didn't felt too greasy or had an overwhelming buttery taste. However, the dosa came out soft and pale. It would have been a perfect meal if they didn't undercook the dosa.“

“Bezawada & Bamboo biryani 5-star ***** Highly Recommended for tasty n delicious food 😋“

“Auténtic South Indian food“
