Absolutely amazing Indian food . The best Indian food I have had in the last 20 years in the US .

The food was amazing here. We got the butter chicken, paneer naan, and sampler appetizer with samosa and fried vegetables. Service was very fast and attentive. the staff were very welcoming too! Can't wait to come back for the best Indian food in the Newport Mesa area! read more

I found this little gem driving on Harbor Boulevard in Costa Mesa. It is hidden in the corner of the parking lot and you may miss it if you blink. I was greeted with a smile and seated at a very nice table covered with a table cloth and minimal centerpiece. Cloth napkins are also a plus. Music was at comfortable level with enjoyable "meal" music. I walked in around 2 p.m. on a Tuesday, just in time for the lunch special. The options are a 1 dish combo or 2 dish combo. I chose the 2 dish: saag aloo and chicken vindaloo, medium spiciness for both. I also ordered a lassi, sweet. After my order was taken, it wasn't very long until my meal was served. Along with my dishes came a small salad and a bowl of rice. The portions were just right for the lunch. I have to say the dishes were very delicious. The potatoes in the saag aloo were perfectly cooked (not mushy) and the spinach with the spices are well balanced. It paired well with the garlic naan ($1 more for the garlic upgrade). I would say the same with the chicken vindaloo. The chicken was very tender and again the flavors balanced well with the naan and the rice. The texture for both "sauces" were also just right as I was able to scoop both using my naan a spoon. I ended with a small dessert, gulab jamun, to balance my meal. Again, not too sweet and flavors balanced out. In all, my food customer service experience at Andaaz was amazing and I will definitely make it a point to head back there the next time I am in Costa Mesa or just head to the area because the food is exceptional. read more

Excellent food and excellent service from the friendly staff Really tasty and big portions. We will come back for sure! read more

Tucked away in corner, under new owner this place is great. Loved the food service and ambiance. I personally like clean walls not any tacky indian art works. Food was great, for their locals. For my Indian taste needed some more flavours. First off nan dough didn't have salt , I ordered Peshwari nan its but sweet in flavor. If nan dough has salt in salt in dough it taste better. Hint of salt bring out flavor of coconut and raisin ( my personal opinion) Pakoras I like with spink le of chaat masala, when I asked they gave us. Maybe for their american crowds they don't like taste of chaat masala. Samosas were big in size and freshly made. Yummy. Mango lassi was really good, no artificial flavour added. Malai koftas were great, fresh ingredients, soft and creamy. Food was piping hot just the way we like it. Owner Mr. Robin was very nice, came and check on us multiple time, so is there staff. They also offered us kheer on the house. Even we were full we ended eating up, it was delicious!! Will come back soon. read more

Absolutely incredible experience! The Aloo Gobi was hands-down one of the best I've ever had--perfectly seasoned, tender potatoes and cauliflower cooked with rich, authentic spices that really popped with flavor. You can tell it was made fresh with care. Paired with their fluffy, fragrant rice, it was the ultimate comfort meal. The service is perfect and your table is well taken care of. Friendly service! The portions were generous, the presentation was great, and every bite felt like real home-style cooking. If you're craving authentic Indian food done right, this place is a must-visit. I'll definitely be coming back for more! read more

What a great find! Loved the food and the attentive service. They even made my favorite dish which wasn't on the menu. Will definitely be back. read more

We have in the past come to this location. But now the new chef is awesome. Layered flavors, fresh ingredients, full of flavor and freshly made. We are coming back again. read more

I ordered the Chicken Korma, samosas, garlic naan bread and extra rice online. When I went to pick it up I had asked if they made sure the extra rice was packed. They didn't and it took a few minutes for them to check the receipt and add it. The extra rice was $2.99 but I also paid extra $0.99 to have it with the chicken korma and it didn't have the rice so it was a little disappointing. It was $32.28 for everything and the portions were kind of small. Aside from the price and missing rice, it was packed well and the food tasted good. read more

Excellent Indian restaurant hidden just off Harbor Blvd. at the intersection of Adams. I stopped for lunch and the food was delicious and service excellent. I'm definitely planning to stop back for dinner soon. Enjoy! read more

What a great surprise! The food was great, the appetizer was great. The drinks were great, and the the service was great. My friend's son wanted to try chicken tiki masala, so I looked up Indian food. There is not too many Indian food places in Costa mesa but this one looked the most appealing from what I found. It is on the other side of town for me.. I didn't expect much, and was very surprised... It is in a somewhat hidden corner of a strip mall on Harbor and Adams... but worth the search. they immediately served a complementary appetizer like you would get chips and salsa at a Mexican restaurant.. It was a nice touch. The tables proper table cloths, nice water, glasses, etc. when the food was served, it came served in very nice what I believe to be copper Bowls... everything just had a nice feel to it. We talked to the owner a bit before we left. He used to manage some Indian restaurants up in Los Angeles for a long time, but has lived in Orange County for many years... I guess he recently purchased this restaurant, and I would highly recommend going to check it out.. I love to see independent restaurant owners making good food in our neighborhoods thriving.. Please go try it out and keep this delicious place thriving as it should. I don't usually take the time to write reviews. This place was definitely a great surprise. I had to share.. read more

Food was hot and ready for our pick up order. Everything tasted delicious and I'm so happy I now have a go to place for my Indian food fix

The appetizer is so good. I think they serve it to you for free before you order the dishes. I really like the cheese naan.

Got food for pickup. Everything was ready promptly. Got chx tika, saag paneer and butter chx. Rice on side with very fluffy and they had great garlic cilantro naan. Sauces were great flavor maybe a bit thin. Would recommend. read more

We ordered assorted naan along with green chillie naan. They were delicious. We also ordered onion pakoras , mix tandoori and both appetizers were delicious. Their butter chicken and lamb biryani was good too. Will come again. The owner and servers were very kind and hospitable. read more

The Indian food here hits the spot!! We tried the chicken korma and chicken tikka masala, and both were phenomenal. Full of flavor and tender, juicy meat. You can also adjust the spice level to suit your taste. The onion kulcha was a delicious, thick naan. Prices are affordable and the staff and owner were super kind. Will be coming back! read more

Andaaz - Chicken Tikka Masala, Korma, Onion Kulcha - Indian Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Ordered butter chicken and garlic naan from here after coming back from India and graving the dish. It's okay, but the butter chicken isn't authentic. They add too much tomato paste -- the taste is more reminiscent of tikka masala and it lacks depth of flavor. It might be more appropriate to name this tomato-flavored sauce with chicken in it than butter chicken, which shouldn't be so acidic in taste. The curry doesn't have "umami" in it. Unfortunately, the chicken also isn't tender. When I eat it, it feels like this was a white person trying to cook Indian food. Disappointed :( read more

Guy at the front was very nice. As soon as I got the ordered they wasted no time getting it out. Hopefully I can have some time to dine it. It's very beautiful inside, lots of light and the table clothes are a nice touch. While I was waiting I was given a free cup of Masala tea. So happy I was able to stop by! read more

What happen to this restaurant! my partner and I always come to dine in and lately we have been turn down, on open hours they randomly close it for 30 minutes and they say to come back because they are on break even though it says open we come back and they say they don't have a certain dish that it's on the menu. This is not the first time this is the fourth time. If they don't wanna serve the people right, why don't they just shut down the restaurant. I don't even want to add a star, but in order to submit this, I have to put one star or else. It won't allow me so sad. read more

This place is actually delicious! I'm an Indian foodie fan and this place is going to be one of my go-tos so close to home! It's small but neat and clean inside. Wine glasses and cutlery on the tables so it's a cute little spot for a delicious date night. The proprietor or manager was so nice. Parking might be an issue on busy nights because it's in a popular strip mall on Harbor blvd. No issues at 5:30pm on a Friday night though this week. We ordered the onion pakora, raita, butter chicken, lamb biryani, aloo gobhi and potato naan. I literally could not find anything I didn't like. Everything was perfectly prepared and so flavorful. The biryani was loaded with lamb pieces. They were not stingy with the portions. Popping deliciousness! If you're nearby, give this place a chance to entertain your palate! Enjoy! read more

We tried this place on a whim and im so glad we did. We are vegetarians so we tried the chilli paneer and vegetable tikka masala and both dishes were delicious. The garlic naan was perfect. Service was great and ambience is also nice. We will be regular customers from now on. If you enjoy authentic Indian food do give this place a try. read more

I'm sad I didn't try this place earlier, food and service was amazing!! We had chicken masala and veggie korma- a must try. Definitely will be back!! read more

Food was amazing - so good that we ate it before we even thought about taking pictures! Felt like Indian home cooking with heart. Thank you, Robin, and your staff for making dinner feel like we were eating at home. read more

Came to have dinner and my first observation was that the name of the restaurant on the building doesn't match the name of the restaurant on the menu. Next there seemed to be very few people working. there was one person manning the phone, counter and the tables overall seems to have more take out orders than dine in. Probably because the actual restaurant looked unfinished. There were cables hanging where a tv should be and no decorations just blank walls because of this the restaurant was very quiet when you spoke there was an echo. Would recommend some music. Because of how little people were working the waiter forgot to bring me hot sauce. Food was good but the overall dinning experience left more something to be desired. Probably wouldn't come back. read more

Really good Indian food at this restaurant. Nice environment though I'd love to see pictures or better yet a mural or two of India on the walls. Indian music as well would be nice. read more

A generous 2 stars. I requested my tikka masala to be extremely spicy... I must have mentioned it to him several times...Apparently, my requests went through one ear and out the other...It was a tad above mild....The rice was good and the naan but the main dish just did'nt cut the mustard...With that being said, i will not be returning. read more

Green Chili finally changed its name to Andaaz with a new owner. Chicken Tikki Masala was so delicious along with the Shrimp Vindaloo and Spinach Saag. My whole family loved every bite and service was five star. It's BYOB too!! Everyone in the Mesa Verde, Costa Mesa community needs to come and try this place! Seriously will not be disappointed!! read more

We used to frequent this Indian restaurant when it was tandoori Fresh but stopped going when it became Green chilis. Had dinner there last night under its new ownership. Food was great. Even more flavorful than tarts original place. We had the platter and saag paneer with the potato and peas stuffed naan bread. The saag paneer is filling so our items were easily enough for 3 people. Really friendly owner as well. We'll be back soon. read more

So glad I found a good Indian food spot near my house. Malai kofta is my favorite food and I've had it at probably 25 different places throughout my life. This is one of the top best I've ever had, I also ordered the garlic naan and samosas. So fresh and fragrant! I'm going to be here a lot, great prices too! read more

Great garlic naan and lamb tikka masala. Sauce was very very flavorful and service was fast! Fed two people for under $50 including tip, ordering the above items plus desert and tea. read more

Food is good but when I came to pick up my online order, the man in the restaurant had no idea what I was talking about. There was both a technical glitch and a communication gap. I did show him my online order and they stated to prepare my food. read more

Ordered for pick up and it was way more food than I anticipated and fast! Got the Tandoori chicken which was well seasoned and has a delicious smokey flavor along with the Tikka masala (also great) got the medium spice but felt like we definitely could've done hot (but I'm a spicy fan) Naan was delicious and chewy/soft texture. So happy to discovered this place and will definitely be ordering again. read more

My wife and I have been regulars here since before the name change. Best Indian food around by far!!!! read more

Andaaz is seriously a gem. The owner is one of the nicest, most genuine people I've met -- super welcoming and you can tell he really cares about the experience. The food? Unreal. The lamb curry is rich, flavorful, and so tender it basically falls apart. And the tandoori chicken is on another level -- juicy, perfectly cooked, and packed with flavor. I've tried a lot of Indian food and nothing compares. Great vibes, amazing food, and top-notch service. Can't wait to go back. read more

Great hot fresh Indian food. We ordered to go. We had enough for left overs for 3 people for 2 additional meals! Very simple inside the restaurant. Not too busy on a Friday at just after lunch time (1pm-ish). Staff were very friendly. We had vegetable curry, chicken curry, chicken tikka masala, green chili chicken, rice, and garlic naan. I am gluten free and only had the veggies and chicken curry and rice. The green chili chicken was breaded-I will ask if they can make it without gluten next time. Large portions of naan-my mom and husband enjoyed. So hungry we forgot to take photos! read more
