My husband and I stopped by Al Noor and were pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed the food. It's definitely a small, no-frills kind of spot, but sometimes those are the places that serve some of the most comforting and flavorful food. I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala, and it was SO good. The chicken was flavorful and the creamy, spiced sauce was absolutely perfect with the butter and garlic naan. The naan was warm, soft, and had just the right amount of garlic and buttery goodness to soak up all that sauce. Add in a mango lassi on the side, and it was such a satisfying meal. Usually places have their mango lassi on the thicker side but I liked the way Al Noor did it because it had a perfect liquid/thickness ratio in my opinion. My husband ordered what I believe was the Lamb Curry, and he enjoyed it as well. I'm personally not a huge fan of lamb, so I didn't try much of his dish, but when I asked him which one he would choose if he could only have one, he said he'd actually go with my Chicken Tikka Masala... so I think that says something! We even got another order to-go since it was savory and wanted us wanting more for dinner. One thing I found really interesting was that they brought out cucumbers and onions as an appetizer. I actually asked our server what they were for because I wasn't familiar with that tradition and haven't seen any other places serve these before at other Indian spots. She explained that they're commonly enjoyed as a little snack alongside the meal. I thought that was such a fun cultural touch and something I wouldn't necessarily expect when dining out. Overall, Al Noor is exactly the kind of unassuming, neighborhood hole-in-the-wall that I love discovering. The food was flavorful, comforting, and delicious without needing a fancy atmosphere or presentation to make an impression. Definitely giving this place 5 stars especially for that Chicken Tikka Masala, naan, and mango lassi combo! I'd happily come back for another plate. As for parking, the plaza was small but has enough parking spots. But if not, I would park across in the other plaza and just walk over.

They're thick, they're flavorful, they hit you with the right spice. Normal spice is a white man's medium high so they got their base down which is more than half the battle. They cook the Paneer just right. And really enjoyed the Bartha! That The not so good: the chicken is way overcooked, I don't know if it's breast or thigh, but it definitely tasted like a dried out breast. Possibly using the tandoori and just dropping it into the gravy, but a perfectly cooked chicken thigh would take the chicken tikka masala to the moon. Second, the Paneer portion size was a joke. Maybe six cubes in the whole deal. Needs to be at least double. I'm ready to try again you gotta protect your meats!

Al Hamra Kabob Grill is a restaurant run by a Pakistani owner, specializing in kebabs and grilled…read moremeats inspired by Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine. The menu also features traditional Pakistani, Persian, and Arabic dishes, such as Beef Nihari and Haleem. After several visits, here are my thoughts on some of their grilled meats and desserts. Beef Kofta - 3/5. The kofta was a bit dry and tough. I wish it had more fat and seasoning to make it juicier and more flavorful. The grilling is also somewhat inconsistent--sometimes the kofta comes out beautifully browned, while other times it's over-charred. Grilled Fish - 4/5. This is easily my favorite item on the menu and, in my opinion, their best dish. The fish is seasoned just enough to enhance its natural flavor without overpowering it. It's grilled very well, developing a beautiful golden-brown crust while remaining moist and tender inside. Beef Shish Kebab - 3.5/5. The quality of the beef is decent, especially considering the price. Given the cut of meat they use, they've done a commendable job with the grilling. The beef has a solid seasoning base and a nice sear with just enough char to add flavor without becoming overly smoky. It's reasonably tender, though I wish it retained a bit more juiciness. Chicken Shish Kebab - 3.5/5. Very similar to the beef shish kebab. It has good flavor and is grilled well, but it could benefit from being a little juicier. Gyro - 2/5. Unfortunately, this was the biggest disappointment. The gyro meat on the vertical spit often appears to be rotating without enough heat to properly caramelize and crisp the exterior. As a result, the meat comes across as dry, rubbery, and lacking the rich roasted flavor that makes a great gyro. Kunafa (Knafeh) - 3/5. This dessert has both strengths and weaknesses. The cheese filling has a pleasant, slightly salty flavor and a creamy texture, and I appreciate that it isn't overly sweet. However, the syrup is underwhelming. A good kunafa should be generously coated with a fragrant sugar syrup - ideally infused with rose water or orange blossom water - to provide sweetness and aroma. I also wish the kataifi, the shredded pastry dough, were crispier and lighter to create a better contrast with the gooey cheese filling. Overall, Al Hamra Kabob Grill is one of the better places to enjoy Middle Eastern-style grilled dishes in the South Bay. While a few menu items could be improved, the grilled fish stands out as excellent, and the shish kebabs are solid choices. The owner is also incredibly friendly and welcoming, creating a warm, neighborhood atmosphere that keeps customers coming back. It's not perfect, but it's a restaurant I enjoy visiting from time to time and one I'd recommend if you're craving grilled Middle Eastern flavors.

After many years of driving past this place on the way to Del Amo Mall growing up, I FINALLY…read morechecked it out recently! Thankfully, I was able to find parallel parking right in front of this restaurant. Off to a great start! While entering, I loved seeing their homely Home Screen door and their extended patio area. Once you go inside, you will notice how much more lighting this place has as opposed to other Indian places. Their booth architecture was pretty cool and comfy as well. I went during their lunch buffet that others have told me about. Honestly, I kind of expected a little MORE variety for the amount they charge. They randomly have a small barrel jug of tomato soup, and an area just for their naan bread, which is cool; BUT their naan bread is kind of different from the traditional ones that usually have chopped up garlic and coriander on it. Angara's naan bread doesn't have any of that on their naan; which was disappointing. I ended up trying their Tikka Masala, grilled chicken, mixed rice, etc.. Usually in other spots, I get other stuff like samosas, potatoes, and other cool different creative stuff to choose from. Angara has pretty much your basic, standard choices. I was like mehhh. Ate their food and it was just OK. Not bad, just ok. I mean I dig that it doesn't taste too salty, but I wanted more taste. The lady who served us was really nice and I loved her great customer service. Their fried vegetables weren't bad, along with their DIY desserts filled with fruit choices and mango puree. In the end, this place has its own kind of aura and flavors; which makes it a cool alternative to those who actually love going here consistently. I'm just a bigger fan of other Indian restaurants; no disrespect to Angara. To everyone who loves eating here; that's awesome for you! To each their own! Glad I was able to at least try this place out.

They always check on you to make sure you're doing well and it feels genuinely kind. Their buffet has a lot of premium dishes like two kinds of goat (curry and biryani) and two kinds of fish (korma and pakora) on top of more expected dishes. Usually at Indian buffets I only see an abundance of vegetarian dishes. Surprisingly the samosas are crispy! Not soggy in a buffet pan. On Sundays the buffet comes with champagne and includes champagne refills up to a certain amount. When you sit down, they bring out fresh hot garlic naan. Soft Drinks are extra but the value and price are still incredible. We will def be back regularly for the buffet!

I had to ask again before actually getting them; the first time, I was told to share the tiny side someone else at my table had received. The rice also wasn't very good and, in my opinion, wasn't how Persian rice should be. The restaurant was extremely hot as well, with no air conditioning and only limited fans. I love Persian food, and the meat itself was genuinely excellent, so I could see getting takeout here. But based on the service, sides, rice, and overall comfort, I wouldn't recommend dining in.
