    Small portion and bad taste

    I paid $18.60 for a chicken tikka masala lunch that included roughly 50 grams of chicken and 1/2 cup of rice, served on a small disposable plate. For the price, the portion was disappointing, with just four small, quarter-sized pieces of chicken. The flavor was also underwhelming; it tasted more like canned tomato sauce than a well-prepared dish.

    Not worth 18 dollars..

    Got the lunch special but didn't have Salad or drink but still charged full priced.. and portions are small

    1/2 lunch chicken

    Went in for the lunch special, main woman at the register does a terrible job of explaining how it works . . Got an eye roll, and a whole lot of attitude when voicing my confusion about this after paying, waiting, and receiving 1/2 size plain chicken for $1 less than the tikka masala dinner( which is what I was inquiring about in the first place )

    Chutneys is very friendly service. The food is kind of odd and not flavors that I'm used to (maybe it's a different region?) and I wish I took a picture of it. It's not bad, good for the price and could be passable but if you are really craving Indian, I would go to samosa house for curries.

    Stopped by on a whim. Good food. Decent price. Would go again. Might not be my first choice. By hit the spot just fine.

    Good flavor on the food. Probably will come back again. I suggest ordering in-person because the online prices are pricier.

    Beef nihari

    We have been coming to this place for a few years now. In a very small lot so parking is scarce and area is not so great either. As many people have mentioned, customer service is horrible. They count out the number of plates and napkins you get. One per person, except kids don't apparently count as people. So one per adult. We normally go here for the nihari, which is decent. The naan is fresh. We ordered the beef seekh kabob this last time around and that was meh. We had to ask for some chutney, at which point we were handed two small containers to grab ourselves. I think better if we just took our plates over instead.

    I'm from India and love to try new Indian restaurants! This gives me the opportunity to compare and find the BEST Indian restaurant in LA. Customer service: I was pleased with the customer service that I received on this day. I was greeted with a warm smile which is always nice. Ordering was easy and the host kindly made suggestions from the menu. Portion: As mentioned, I've been to MANY indian restaurants and the portion at this location was 3/10. I was surprised to see how LITTLE the servings were and still felt hungry after leaving the restaurant. Flavoring: I would give this place a 5/10 for flavor. It's not up to par with my expectation. Not spicy and kind of bland to be honest. Parking: Parking is definitely a 1/10. If it's a busy day, you won't have any luck with parking. It's too tight and small. * I would not consider what I ate to be Samosas. Those resemble sambusas and don't taste exactly like what a samosa should taste like. The Dosa also was more like injera and not a true dosa texture. I will not be returning to this location but happy to have tried a new place.

Not…read more"pretty good for takeout," not "good on a lucky day," just genuinely solid every single time. This time, I went with the Anwar Style Chicken Shawarma to try something new. The portion size alone is impressive. The container is packed and feels substantial the moment you pick it up. The base is a bed of fries, and these are not just filler. They are thick, well seasoned, and sturdy enough to handle all the toppings without turning into a soggy mess. On top of the fries is a generous amount of chicken. The chicken tastes freshly cooked, with that warm, savory flavor you expect from good shawarma, never dry and never overly salty. There are pita chips mixed in, which add a great crunch and texture against the fries and chicken. Multiple sauces are drizzled throughout the dish. I chose a side of their spicy sauce. The creamy white sauce balances things out, while the orange sauce brings a mild heat and a little extra depth. None of the sauces overpower the dish, they work together to coat everything evenly and keep every bite flavorful. Diced tomatoes and corn adds a touch of sweetness that surprisingly works really well here. A sprinkle of herbs throughout helps brighten everything up and keeps the dish from feeling too heavy, even though it is definitely filling. This is comfort food done right. It is messy in the best way, packed with flavor, at least to me it was. If you are looking for something hearty, satisfying, and consistently well made, I will always recommend Anwar's Kitchen. Anwar's Kitchen delivers quality food, and I will keep ordering from them.

We picked it in part…read morebecause of the halal options, which we appreciated, but overall the service and experience were disappointing. We had a 6:30 reservation, and after being seated at table L4, it took several minutes before anyone came over. When our waitress Karen finally approached, she greeted us with "Hello, ladies" without really looking at me. She then realized I was a man and apologized. I do have long curly hair, so I understood how the mistake happened, but it made for an awkward start to the evening. She was pleasant while explaining the menu and helped us understand which items we could eat. One of the main reasons my wife chose H&H was because of the halal meat options. Since we do not eat pork, our waitress specifically told us she would let the meat servers know not to bring pork to our table. Unfortunately, pork was still brought over to us, which was disappointing considering our dietary restriction had already been clearly discussed. After taking our drinks and getting us started, our waitress essentially disappeared. We had to flag down other staff throughout most of the meal whenever we needed something. Meanwhile, nearby tables were receiving regular check-ins and much more attention from their server. We were among the few couples of color in our immediate area, and while I can't say why our service was so different, the contrast was noticeable and made the experience uncomfortable. The meat servers were actually one of the bright spots and a big reason this isn't a one-star review. Several of them were friendly and accommodating. However, the red-and-green card system didn't seem to work consistently. Even with the green side showing, there were times we were passed by and had to ask for certain meats. The food itself was mixed. The Brazilian limeade was probably my favorite part of the meal. We also really enjoyed the cinnamon pineapple, fried plantains, Brazilian cheese bread, and the mashed potatoes, which were excellent. Some of the meats were good, but others were overly fatty or very tough and difficult to chew, also we did not like the big crystals of salt all over the meat which made it very salty. The fried corn wasn't for us. The farm-to-table area was another disappointment. We noticed numerous small flies flying around the food, which immediately turned us off, so we barely took anything from that section. Cleanliness also stood out for the wrong reasons. There was visible dust buildup on the wall and lighting area behind our table, as well as on the small lamps around us. In the restroom, there were no paper towels available for drying your hands, only the air dryer. My wife had also specifically noted on the reservation that we were celebrating my birthday. There was no acknowledgment until she went and reminded the staff herself. They eventually brought something out, which I appreciated, but by that point it felt more like an afterthought. Even getting the bill at the end was difficult. We were left waiting and eventually had to track someone down just so we could pay. There were definitely some good moments, the Brazilian limeade, cinnamon pineapple, Brazilian cheese bread, mashed potatoes, some of the meats, and several helpful meat servers, but for a birthday dinner costing us well over $200, I expected much better service, cleanliness, attention to our dietary request, and overall hospitality. Unfortunately, this was not the birthday dinner we were hoping for.

We went on a Sunday at 5.15pm and was seated by the chef counter area. It was only 2 of us so I wanted to make sure we ordered enough food but not too too much. Reading through the reviews, I ended up ordering the hummus duck nduja, oyster mushroom kebab, grilled prawn, and the lamb neck shawarma. First of all this restaurant seems more on the fancier side, but I appreciate that the vibe is still pretty casual and not pretentious. Even when serving the dishes, the server told us that some dishes are recommended to be enjoyed by hands. I really enjoyed the service. They served the plates in a pretty good pace, so I had plenty of time to enjoy each of them. First was the hummus duck nduja that was served with 2 bread that were freshly made. The bread was so fluffy and it went really well with the hummus. Very good appetizer. Second was the mushroom kebab. This might be my favorite plate of all. It really tasted like something else other than mushroom. It's that good. It has nice texture and flavor. Third was the grilled prawn and this one was recommended to be enjoyed by hands. It can be quite messy, but oh man it's so flavorful. I kinda wish it came with rice haha cos it's pretty rich. Very yummy. The cucumber salad that came with it was refreshing as well. The last but not least was the lamb neck shawarma. It's so so good and falls off the bone. My bf said this was his favorite. It came with bread, although again I kinda wish it came with rice! Haha but that's just cos I'm more of a rice girly. I was already full so we take it to go. Everything was so delicious and service was great. Definitely will come back again to try other dishes. Parking was difficult so we ended up using vallet for $15. Edit to add: we just enjoyed the leftover lamb the night after, and OMG it's soooooo good! I didn't do justice on my review at the restaurant cos I was already full by the time they served the lamb. Will definitely be dreaming of that lamb now..

Service was great. The bartender and server were both super knowledgeable and helped guide us through everything, which made a big difference with a menu like this. The ambience is beautiful. Big bar in the back, great lighting, a mix of natural and more moody tones that make it feel elevated but still comfortable. For mains, the pot pies are a must. We tried the biryani and the butter chicken versions, completely different but both worth it. Portions are huge, you will have leftovers. The quesadilla with fajita peppers and tandoori chicken was such a cool fusion idea and worked really well. The boneless truffle chicken had this creamy, almost alfredo style sauce with Indian spices that made it super unique. Ended with the saffron noodle pistachio ice cream dessert and that was unlike anything I've had before. Definitely something you try at least once. This is one of those spots where everything feels creative and intentional. I'll definitely be back.
